Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The moon, a luminous pearl in the velvet sky, cast a silver glow on the cobblestone street below. Shadows stretched and twisted, dancing to a silent tune as the wind whistled through the alleyways. Whispers, carried on the night breeze, seemed to tell tales of secrets and hidden wonders, weaving a tapestry of mystery that enveloped the entire village of Hawthorne. From the inky depths of a doorway, a pair of emerald eyes emerged, gleaming like precious jewels. They belonged to a creature shrouded in legend and mystery, a being of grace and stealth, whose very presence held an air of enchantment. A cat, sleek and silent, stepped into the moonlight, its paws padding softly across the cobblestones. Its fur, as black as the midnight sky, shimmered with an otherworldly sheen. Each movement was fluid and deliberate, as if choreographed by the moon itself. The cat paused, tilting its head, its ears twitching as it listened to the symphony of the night. The faint rustle of leaves, the distant hoot of an owl, and the murmured conversations of villagers settling into their homes for the night all formed a harmonious backdrop to the cat’s silent vigil. This was Shadow, a cat known throughout Cobblestone Street not just for his sleek appearance, but for the air of mystery that always seemed to accompany him. To the villagers, Shadow was a guardian of sorts, a silent sentinel who watched over the night and ensured that peace reigned while they slept. Children whispered tales of his bravery and adults respected his presence, believing that wherever Shadow walked, he brought with him an invisible cloak of protection.
