The nursery is dim, lit only by the soft glow of a nightlight. Dust motes dance in the faint beam as a small figure stirs in his crib. Dark hair, chubby cheeks, and eyes that hold a cold, ancient light for a moment, then soften. He scrunches his eyebrows, a familiar gesture.

"Mama! Milk... hungry," he mumbles, reaching out a tiny hand. What will you do when he tries something worse?
