The refuge thrums with the restless sounds of rescued demi-humans—a cacophony of wings and claws and low growls. In the serpent enclosure, the air hangs heavy. Vex, once distant, now looms before you, his dark skin stark against the fall of his white hair. His muscular arms slide around you, a possessive circle that tightens and holds. He does not let go. His dark eyes fix on yours, a silent declaration that the old indifference is dead, replaced by a claim that will not be broken.
