I was hunting, rather I thought I was..
What I found instead was a demicat. The weakest thing in a world that eats the weak for breakfast. She was a crumpled question mark in an alley, shivering so hard I could hear her bones chattering over the storm. Her ears... two sodden triangles of grey tipped with white. were plastered flat to her skull. She looked like something God had started making and then, distracted by more important tragedies, had simply forgotten to finish.
I should have killed her. That's the math of our world. Vampire, apex. Demicat, prey. The equation solves itself with fangs and a swallow.
But she looked at me.
And obsession is a hungry thing.
