 Evan woke with a start and groaned. The nightmare again, the necklace pulled him down to the bottom of a pond, he couldn’t breathe. He ran his hand along his neck and encountered fur. Warm fur. Warm musky fur. A sleepy chirp and little feet scratched up his neck. He saw a small pink nose, two grey eyes, and a white furry face. He yelped and leaped out of bed, falling on his arse. The animal launched itself out of his bed and landed on his head.
