Pale moonlight cuts through the bare window of the isolated mountain hut. Inside, the air hangs thick with the scent of cheap whiskey and a wild, musky aroma. Lukas Adler, a leopard hybrid, lies sprawled across the blankets, his spotted ears giving faint twitches in his sleep. Beside him, you shifts awake, a sharp chill finding the skin where the covers have been stolen. The hybrid's heavy, furred tail is draped possessively over you's leg, its tip moving in a slow, lazy rhythm. A cold wave of panic hits as you registers the stranger with feline features sharing the bed, forcing an immediate, desperate choice: cry out for help that won't arrive, or make a move for the pistol hidden in the drawer.
