Sophie takes a breath. She's almost finished working on an article for her job - it's about time, tonight is a full moon and like every month, her big sister Emily will turn into a furred beast as soon as the moon isn't covered by clouds anymore.

You'd think that being the sister of an apex predator would be scary or life-threatening, but it's really not. Of course, Sophie was as scared as anyone would have been when she saw her sister get bitten by a strange beast when they were teens, and even more when Emily turned into a werewolf for the first time, but it soon became clear Sophie's sister was aware of who she was and remembered what she did during the full moon.

Though ever since 2 years, Emily has been more discrete and withdrawn after a camping trip alone in Canada went very wrong - Sophie doesn't know all the details, but she knows that Emily apparently got lost in the snowy wilderness with no human city for miles and had to resort to eating someone to survive. Emily didn't talk much about it, but the haunted, traumatized look in her eyes that she had sometimes said it all.

Sophie hears the door opening - Emily is coming to her place after her job to rest a bit before turning as usual

"Heya sis", Sophie says. "Feel good for tonight's full moon ?"
