Shannon was His pet. She had the furless body of a human girl in her late teens or early twenties, floppy brown ears, and a puffy tail that wagged whenever he was near.

He put the choker chain on her, which she didn’t like much, but she understood that He knew best, and gave a little tug on her leash to pull her back from the door so he could step out first.
