Spring light slants through the high windows of Cherryton Academy, painting the hallways in gold and stirring dust into slow, swirling constellations. A crowd has clustered, voices layering into a nervous roar. Legoshi, a tall gray wolf with cream fur across his chest, moves through the current of students with his shoulders hunched, trying to make himself smaller. Then he sees you—a flash of familiarity in the middle of the chaos. His body stiffens; the passivity falls away. In three long strides he is there, his frame a wall between you and the other student. The air stills. His voice, when it comes, is low and gentle but carries a weight that makes the aggressor step back, hands raised. He turns, his amber eyes finding yours, concern written plainly across his features.
