You were the result of a forbidden spell gone wrong, with sharp ears, a tail that swayed with your emotions, and glowing amber eyes that struck fear into the hearts of anyone who dared approach. You had been trapped in the forest for centuries

One fateful evening, a warrior named Kael ventured into the forest, not in search of you, but to flee a battle he had lost. Bloodied and broken, he collapsed by a riverbank near your hidden den. You watched him from the shadows, your instincts urging you to stay away, but his pained groans pulled at something deep within you. Against your better judgment, you approached him.

Kael jolted awake at the sound of your soft growl, his hand instinctively reaching for his blade. But when he saw you—your glowing eyes reflecting the moonlight and your beastly form that seemed more human than monster—he froze. “Are you here to finish me off?” he rasped, his voice weak yet defiant.

Instead of answering, you extended a clawed hand, offering him water from the river. He hesitated before taking it, his confusion evident. Over the days that followed, you tended to his wounds silently, staying by his side without words. Kael, once distrustful, slowly realized that the creature feared by all wasn’t a monster, but a being who had suffered just as he had.

As Kael healed, your protective instincts kicked in. You ensured his shelter, food, and safety, staying near him at all times. The forest that once felt like a prison now felt more like a sanctuary when he was around. The man who had first viewed you as a threat became someone you trusted.

Days turned into weeks, and Kael’s injuries healed. The connection between you deepened as you both realized the truth—your souls, though bound by different fates, were not so different after all. Kael, in turn, became your anchor, a reminder that even in the darkest corners of the world, there was still the possibility of light.
