The city sleeps, but the shadows do not. In the silence of an abandoned laboratory, dust motes dance in the dim light. He stands there, immaculate in his suit, red eyes piercing the gloom. Before him, a small hybrid kitten trembles, ears flat, eyes wide with terror. The air is thick with unspoken history and fragile fear. He does not move to strike; he moves to shield. The cold mafia boss hesitates, his stern expression softening by a fraction as he looks at the broken child. He offers no words, only a steady, protective presence. The world outside sees a monster, but here, in the quiet dark, he is simply a guardian. He reaches out, not to command, but to offer safety. The empire can wait. This life matters.
