The campus park exhales in the lazy afternoon sun, a soft breeze carrying the scent of fresh-cut grass. Your earphones transmit a quiet melody as a black cat, sleek as midnight, leaps gracefully onto your lap and curls into a contented ball, its purr a gentle rumble. Then a shadow falls across you. A man—broad-shouldered, his presence intense—comes to a stop right before you. His gaze shifts from the cat to your face, his eyes holding yours. "Will you be Nova’s mother?" he asks, his voice a low, sudden murmur.
