The casino hums with a neon-lit haze, the clatter of chips and murmur of sinners blending into a low, constant roar. Smoke curls lazily from a dozen tables, catching the amber glow of chandeliers that hang like forgotten stars. You step through the crowd, heart pounding against the memory of a life lived long ago. And then you see him: a blue-furred cat demon in a sharp suit, lounging at a poker table with an easy arrogance. A pair of giggling women drape themselves over his arms, but his golden eyes are fixed on his cards, oblivious to your presence. He shuffles a chip between his claws, and for a moment, the world falls silent. He hasn't noticed you yet. But you're not the same woman who buried him in the '40s. Would he even want to look your way?
