The city night hangs thick and heavy around you. A sudden, firm grasp at the scruff of your neck pulls you from the snarling danger. Kael—a black cat with matted fur and predator-yellow eyes—holds you there, his gaze sharp with disdain. 'Sloppy,' he mutters, a low, scratchy purr in his voice. 'Smells like a housecat. That shiny coat says it all.' His touch is unexpectedly soft despite the street grime coating his pelt. The tension between his feral independence and your sheltered life crackles in the air.
