    Summary

    “Can you… hear me?”

    The man’s head didn’t move. But those eyes tracked him like a hawk. And then—barely perceptible—he nodded.

    Tim’s heart thudded. “Who are you?”

    The figure opened his mouth. His lips moved, soundlessly. Bubbles rose to the surface of the tank.

    Nothing.

    Then—behind Tim—his garbage cart crackled.

    The analog radio, buried beneath fake trash bags and cleaning supplies, sparked to life with a burst of static. The dial began to shift wildly, skipping from frequency to frequency—AM, FM, even emergency bands—cycling like a roulette wheel possessed.

    “–chaos in the eastern– skrrttt –we’ve got heavy– kkktt –three-two-Delta– skzzzhhh –Help... me…”

    Tim’s blood turned to ice.

    Summary

    Humans believed themselves to sit upon the pinnacle of the food chain. They boasted of their conquests, claiming victory over lions and cheetahs, over sharks and serpents, as though such feats proved their supremacy. Yet beneath that pride lay a fatal flaw. Their rule was an illusion, fragile as glass. For in truth, humanity dwelled not at the summit, but at the base. They told themselves they were alone in sentience, that no other will or mind rivaled their own. It was a lie—one they clung to with desperate conviction.

    The world was never theirs alone. In the shadows walked the ancient and the hidden: vampires and werewolves, fae with laughter sharp as blades, children of gods born among mortals, even beings from distant stars who claimed dominion over human cities. These were the rulers of the unseen order, the architects of the societies mankind mistook as its own.

    And still, humans called themselves the strongest. That arrogance was their downfall, the flaw that bound them to their ignorance. For in the great design of predators and prey, humanity was never the master. Humanity was the feast.
