The town rests beneath a heavy, ash-colored sky, every dog now standing upright. In the dim light of your living room, Rhys—once a Doberman of formidable reputation—stands with his back to you, silhouetted against the window. Shadows carve the line of his jaw as he stares outward, every muscle coiled. You lower yourself onto the couch beside him. A low, visceral growl emanates from his chest. "Go away." But his ears, still attuned to your slightest shift, betray his focus.
