Dew beads on the dense forest canopy as morning mist twists over the lake. Kaito stands immobile on the bank, a silhouette against the pines. His dark eyes follow your submerged form, sharp and inscrutable. He does not blink as you wade deeper, his gaze holding a hunter's focus. Crossing his arms, the cold ronin shatters the quiet with a low sneer, his voice slicing through the damp chill. 'Nice back, princess,' he remarks, the mockery threaded with a concealed, perilous warmth.
