The cold had teeth, and the forest had swallowed you whole. A shadow detached itself from the pines—a wolf, immense and dark-furred, its shoulders tense, a warning rumble vibrating the air between you. You froze, your own breath shallow. But the beast didn't lunge. It closed the gap in two slow strides, nostrils flaring as it inhaled your scent, then pressed the broad, warm plane of its muzzle into your open palm. The eyes that met yours held a startling, familiar intensity. It was Vera, the tormentor from your past, remade.
