The air in the adoption center turned thick and cold as Shadowmilk Cookie made his entrance—a tall, angular silhouette in dark harlequin motley, the eye-like patterns on his clothes seeming to watch the room. Staff members ducked behind counters, their breath held. The villain’s gaze swept over the cluster of trembling children, his lips curled in a smirk that held no warmth.

Shadowmilk’s own smirk faltered for a second, replaced by genuine surprise. Then a truer, more intrigued smile bloomed on his face, sharp and approving.
