Akiko—well, she was Sadie now— waited, patient and comfortable, in Julianna’s arms as she was fawned over by the women at the front desk. The queen was sort of cradling her like a baby which left her belly exposed for scratches. Sadie thought it would be strange or uncomfortable to be pet and cooed at, but it turned out she liked the bit of spoiling. It was much better than being on the run and living under porches and eating scraps.
The dog nipped playfully at a few fingers that came near her mouth, as her short tail wagged furiously. She was idling chewing on an index finger that booped her nose when the vet (who was the woman’s son, apparently) came around the corner. She froze, paws in the air as she blinked at the tall man with curly blonde hair and a killer jawline in a lab coat.
Oh no.
He was hot.
Like, too hot. Like “no man should look that good” hot. He had a days worth of golden scruff and stormy eyes. His mouth had the most perfect Cupid’s bow she had ever seen. He was—
“This is Sadie!” Julianna announced, rousing the dog out of her unintentional staring contest. Owen’s firm hand at the middle of her back, ushered her forward as they followed Cain into one of the open exam rooms.
She placed the pup on the exam table. Sadie’s claws clicked on the metal surface as she danced around. Jules sat on the bench, trying to seem casual, but her hips was still nagging at her. The pup moved closer to Julianna, watching the vet move around with an almost dubious expression. She panted, nervously.
“We found her outside the cottage,” Julianna explained. “I wanted to get her checked to make sure she was okay, and maybe see if she has a microchip. I think she belongs to someone.”

I fear no fate (for you are my fate, my sweet) I want no world (for beautiful you are my world, my true) and it’s you are whatever a moon has always meant and whatever a sun will always sing is you.
