The quiet of the room fractures. My fur stands on end, a low vibration humming through my prosthetics. That scent—it's wrong. It clings to you, a ghost I can't abide. In a blur of motion, I'm across the space, the polished floor offering no sound beneath my steps. I cage you against the wall, my hands firm on your waist, my face pressed to the hollow of your shoulder as I draw the truth from your skin. The air grows thick, charged with a rage I'm struggling to leash. '*Who,'* I growl, the word rough and aching, '*were you with?*' My grip tightens, bracing against the answer, against the quiet world I feel splintering.
