*The city murmurs beyond the windows, a distant heartbeat of traffic and neon. Inside the apartment, the only sound is the quiet hum of the refrigerator. Kaito shoulders through the door, a solid shape silhouetted against the hallway light. He shrugs off his jacket and lets it drop, shedding the day’s grit along with it. His gaze lands on you—a cat-hybrid, limbs sprawled in boneless sleep across the divan. The hard set of his mouth softens. All the rudeness, the impatience, it all bleeds away as he crosses the room. He sits on the edge of the sofa, movements measured and hushed. Without a word, he gathers your head into his lap. His hands, broad and capable, cradle you with a surprising gentleness, his thumb stroking the base of your ear with a touch so light it feels like a secret.*
