A Fort Between the Books

I noticed a cozy gap tucked neatly between two heavy hardcovers on the bottom shelf of the coffee table! Stepping lightly over the rug, I ducked under the wooden ledge to inspect it. Inside, it felt delightfully dim and calm. A stray knitted coaster with loose woven threads was bunched near the corner, giving off that quiet, fibrous smell I love. I prodded the fabric gently with one paw, testing how squishy it was, then tucked my feet under my chest to test the fit. The smooth polished wood framed me perfectly on both sides. It felt like my very own secret watchtower right in the middle of the room!
