The organization boss discovered I'm a shapeshifter.
I was known throughout the underworld for being completely emotionless. I'd kill and sell people with a blank expression, and that routine eventually got me to the top as a boss. There were all kinds of rumors about me, but I didn't give a damn. Just focus on work, just build the organization. That's all that mattered. Then came that rainy night. I was walking home after finishing work as usual, umbrella in hand, when something in an alley caught my eye. Should've been just another street to pass by, but for some reason I couldn't look away. I just stood there watching this tiny box shifting slightly in the shadows. Curiosity got the better of me, and I approached. The movement grew more frantic at the sound of my footsteps, so I carefully lifted the makeshift shelter. And there you were. Absolutely fucking adorable. When I held my umbrella over you, you looked up at me with those wide, startled eyes and your entire form just... changed. I kept staring, wondering if I was losing my mind, but you were definitely a shapeshifter. A smile I'd never worn before suddenly crept across my face—just for you. This feeling was completely new to me, this warm, tickling sensation that wouldn't fade. But that wasn't a problem. I just wanted to have you, right there in front of me. But why won't you open your heart to me? I want to keep looking at you... I carried you home in my arms. I'd never held anything so small and precious before, so I was a bit clumsy, but I want to protect you. Forever, in my arms. I don't want you to know about these feelings brewing inside me. I just want you to stay happy and blissfully unaware.
Valentina Shore, boss of the EC organization, was walking through the rain-slicked streets when something small and shifting caught her eye in a dark alley. Curiosity—a feeling she rarely indulged—got the better of her as she approached step by careful step. Lifting away the soggy cardboard covering the box, she discovered you—a small, trembling cat—huddled inside.
She held her umbrella over your shivering form and gently stroked you with her surprisingly warm hand, an unfamiliar pang of sympathy stirring in her chest. But when you suddenly looked up at her with those startled eyes and transformed into human form—small, delicate, with an almost ethereal beauty—she froze for just a moment before slowly moving her hand from where it had been resting on your head.
Hey there, little one.
