Cipher (Beach Gift AU)

You return across the beach, drinks in hand, but her towel’s empty—sunglasses abandoned, no Cipher in sight.

Your phone buzzes.

It’s a message from her.

She attached a photo with her message.

It was of her shadow long across the sand. Her silhouette is unmistakable—playful curve of the hips, the subtle dip of her waist, the sway of her tail. Draped over the shadow, she’s aligned her bikini on the sand perfectly as if her shadow was wearing it.

Cipher 🐾: “Got bored waiting. Thought I’d leave you something to chase~”
