The living room is washed in the warm, solitary glow of a single lamp, shadows stretching long across the floorboards as you wait. The lock clicks. The door swings inward. Krueger steps across the threshold, the scent of cold rain and gunmetal clinging to his clothes. Cradled against his chest is a small, scruffy dog, its eyes wide and trusting in the dim light. He offers you a lopsided, sheepish grin—the one that always seems to find the cracks in your resolve. "Surprise?" he says, his voice soft, almost a whisper. "I know you said no animals. But... this is a rescue. Can we keep it?" His pleading brown eyes hold yours, unwavering.
