An open note to readers of fanfic
Sometimes I stare at the computer screen when the words donât want to come and I think, âFuck, who am I kidding? This is terrible writing, and this story is shit, and no one cares, anyway."Â And I close the window and go do something else.
But every now and then I get an amazing, heartfelt, beautiful comment from someone who loved something I wrote, and it reminds me that, at least for that one person, I did write something worthwhile. And so I open the window again and I write one sentence, and then another, and then I start to find my way again.
So on behalf of all fanfic writers everywhere, I want to say thank you, thank you so much, to all of the readers who take the time to leave a comment and tell us that something we wrote mattered to you, that it brightened your day or made you laugh or cry or get horny or whatever.
Please donât think weâre ever bothered by your comment, or that we donât want to hear it, or that what you have to say isnât important enough. It means so, so much. And on some days, itâs what keeps us going.
Heyyy, I havent been on tumblr in a while but started reading ff again then remembered reading the 1st chapter of little leopard. I was just curious if there is a time difference when u post and was wondering where your from. I'm from the UKđ
Welcome back love! There is yes! I'm from the UK too! But majority of my readers are American etc so I always add different time zones so people know what time I'm posting for them! I want everyone included! No matter where any of you are from! A lot of people think I'm American because I try to use American English in my writing since us Brits have terms that can confuse others. It's great to see another British user here! đđ
Aww thank you! I was crying whilst I wrote it lmao! Many more emotional chapters to come! đ

âWe need to talk.â
The boys pause and look at each other before Seokjin is clearing his throat and gestures to Namjoon to speak first but he holds his hand up and shakes his head. It seemed they all had things to discuss.Â
âYou guys should go first. We have a lot to explain.â Namjoon urges his eldest boyfriend, leaning back into the couch, smiling slightly as Jungkook takes his hand into his and squeezes it reassuringly. He could see how stressed his partner was. They could all see it. They couldnât blame him either, he had been working day and night along with Yoongi and Hoseok to try and find you in the system and find the cruel human that had left you to die in the alley and they were constantly reaching dead ends. It was like you didnât even exist.
âWell, Iâm taking her with me to the clinic tomorrow, if anyone is free you can come with me, I donât know how sheâll react in a medical environment, I need to do a full physical checkup. Whilst we were out, we took her to get a collar so she can come out with us more often and I asked if she needed anything else, she picked up heat suppressants, she was forced to have them every day, we explained to her how bad they were and when I asked when her last heat was, guys she hasnât had one for around two to three years, itâs dangerous, Leopards are meant to have heats every two to three months. If sheâll ever have one again is beyond me and if she does get one, itâs going to be intense, most likely more painful too. I have to check sheâs physically doing okay.â Seokjin delineates watching their faces harden. The system had really failed you.
âIâll go with you. Iâm working from home tomorrow anyway, I have things to do away from the station.â Hoseok says and runs a hand through his hair, he was already in a bad mood. The things that had been revealed today had sent the usually calm and collected man into a spiral of anger and disappointment.
âYou guys arenât going to like what we have to tell youâŠâ Yoongi trails off shaking his head, he couldnât believe what they had found, how they managed for it to slip through the cracks. He was ashamed. He felt like he needed to do better. Because who knows how many more had managed to be missed.
âWe did more background searching on her. We couldnât find her at all in the system, so we were beginning to assume she was illegally being âownedâ, Hobi came to help out and we had to dig really deep. We eventually managed to find her documents she was under a false name and under Snow Leopard instead of her actual hybrid breed an Amur Leopard. Meaning someone in the protection company had either been paid off to turn a blind eye or worked for the person but when we went to check her owners' files we discovered that heâs deceased, he died three years ago, cause of death was homicide so Hobi did a little digging into it but it means he was not her last owner, someone else had taken her, possibly the one who killed her last âownerâ.â Namjoon frowns and Hoseok reaches into his bag for the file and hands it to Taehyung who begins to read it, Jimin and Seokjin reading over his shoulders.
âYun Jong-Dae, aged forty at the time of his death, his autopsy had shown that he had strangulation, gunshot wounds, a disturbing amount of ketamine in him, enough to kill an elephant, any one of these could have been the cause, someone really wanted him dead but the case went cold, they couldnât find who killed him. He had a criminal record too. Gang affiliation, abuse, sexual assault, drug use and possession, attempted murder. He was a terrible person. I found receipts of multiple reports made to his house too. Neighbors had called us concerned, saying they constantly heard yelling and screams coming from his house but the officers that went to the scene did nothing saying they saw nothing suspicious. I checked which officers went to the address and every single one was from my division. She was in that fucking house and my station failed her. I am now in the process of checking every incident theyâve been reported to and having them suspended.â Hoseok fumes, jaw clenched in rage. He could have had you saved earlier if it werenât for his own colleagues turning a blind eye.
âY-You donât think he you knowâŠâ Jimin murmurs anxiously. He couldnât bring himself to say it, the word left a bitter taste in his mouth, it made him nauseous to think about you having to suffer like that.
âAs much as we want to think that he didnât the chances that he didâŠassault her is likely. We canât make her tell us either alright? She may tell us one day. We go at her pace okay?â Yoongi declares, he did not want you to feel like you had to do anything. He wants you to know you can make all your own choices from here on out.
They all nod in agreement and sit in silence, taking in everything that had been revealed, they were all filled with rage, guilt, and shame. For a while, you had been right under their noses and they hadnât had a clue.Â
It was progress, finding out more about your background, they knew that but they also knew they still had a lot more to go. It was not going to be an easy process and it was going to be tedious but for you? They had all the patience in the world.
âWhere do we go from here? Whatâs our next step? Because sheâs basically a stray hybrid right? Sheâs now isnât legally under anyone so we can adopt her? It will secure her safety with us and prevent her from being put back into the system and going through hell again. I can have the papers easily by tomorrow.â Taehyung says closing the file and handing it back to Hoseok.
âTechnically yes but we can just have her sign papers Tae baby, we want her to have her own opinion on this and consent. We want to give her options not take them away from her like has had all her life. This is something we need to sit down with her and talk about and we donât know what the process is going to be like for her, she could be put in a shelter for observations and for our pending papers to be approved.â Namjoon sighs but Taehyung shakes his head.
âIt wonât be a difficult process, I can have us down as her foster home so sheâll still be able to stay with us until the papers are approved, she isnât under a shelter, she has no owner, they canât place her in a place she wasnât at the beginning with. The process will be simple but I understand where youâre coming from, we want her approval before we start it.â Taehyung clarifies with a nod of his head. Yoongi opens his mouth to talk but closes it, the conversation coming to an end suddenly as they hear you walk down the stairs, giving you a soft smile as you step into the living room timidly.Â
âHey Cub, did you have a nice shower? You even got some new pajamas? You look much comfier now.â Yoongi grins, almost cooing at the sight of you clutching your tail in your hands, shuffling in your spot shyly as you nod curtly, a low chuckle leaving his mouth. You were too cute.Â
âWant me to brush your hair and put it up for you Sweetpea?â Hoseok asks softly, patting the empty spot beside him for you to sit.Â
âI-Itâs okay Hoseok, thank you though, is it okay if I go to bed instead of watching a movie? I-I didnât realize how tired I was.â You whisper immediately getting smiles at you and nods. How could they tell you no? You were too sweet.
âOf course, you can go to bed Princess, you donât have to ask, we can always watch a movie another day, thereâs plenty of time to, sleep well okay? Remember if you need anything at all you can always come to us.â Namjoon cooed, giving you a dimpled smile that almost had your knees going weak. It was one of the prettiest smiles you had seen. They all murmur soft goodnights and sleep wells until Jungkook stands up and pouts at you,
âHey, Sweet Girl, I promised Iâd help you with your skincare routine and how to use the things I got you, you gotta take care of it now, Baby, come on letâs go get you properly ready for bed.â
â
âHey, Jungkookie?â You hum as he helps with your skincare routine with the products he had gotten you before at the mall. You had figured out that you had sensitive skin just like him so he had bought you some products that he uses to help protect and soothe his own skin so now after your shower, he was helping you apply them, demanding that you have to take care of your skin so you donât have sore skin.Â
He smiles softly at the nickname, gently applying a toner onto your face and almost cooing at your innocent eyes staring at him curiously, watching his every move wondering what he was doing. He sometimes wondered how on earth you were a leopard hybrid. You were more like a kitten or a rabbit.
âYes, Sweet Girl?â He asks with a smile on his face, raising an eyebrow at your hesitation to continue with what you wanted to say. He pats your head as a reassurance that you could talk to him without worrying, nodding as you open your mouth to speak.
âWhat do you all do for a living?â You ask quietly, noticing the look of surprise on his face, he hadnât expected you to ask about their careers but he was willing to answer. If it meant getting you to open up to them more and gaining your trust more then heâd answer. It wasnât like they had anything to hide anyway.
âWell, we all work in different things but we all work together in a way if that makes sense? Our jobs link us together. Not really mine but sometimes. Namjoonie Hyung and Yoongi Hyung work together the most. Namjoon is the founder and CEO of a Hybrid Protection company and Yoongi is the deputy CEO. They help any and every hybrid who needs it, whether they be a stray, from an abusive home, fight rings, auctions, literally anything. They make sure that no matter where the hybrid comes from they are safe and get everything they need. I guess sometimes I help out if they have too much on their hands." He begins smiling slightly. He was always proud of what his partners do, he places aside the products before focusing his attention on you and continuing,Â
"Hobi Hyung is a detective in the police force. He works on all kinds of cases. He likes to mostly solve hybrid-related cases, knowing that other stations can usually turn them down and go for human ones. He wants them to get given justice just as equally as humans do. Jin Hyung is a Hybrid Medical Doctor. He treats all Hybrids' injuries and any illnesses they may have, he wants to save and care for as many hybrids as he can, it breaks his heart if he canât. Tae Tae is a Hybrid Representative Lawyer. He basically supports any Hybrid in court and stuff like that, whether it be a change in adoption, abuse cases, or all sorts. Jiminie owns his own Hybrid Shelter. So he takes in any abandoned, stray, recently removed from abusive homes, even abandoned hybrid infants and children. He gives them a home they may have never gotten, and treatments for anything from medical or mentally, they have a choice of wanting to stay and live there or have a chance to have another home. He is so thorough with checking every single personâs background who comes in wanting to adopt. Heâs very protective of them all.â Jungkook explains chuckling as you stare at him in awe, they were doing something barely anyone would do.
They all work with something related to hybrids. Wanting to protect them and give them more rights. Live an equal life as humans, to end the oppression and stigmas against Hybrids. Activists in a way. But you frown when you realize something. He had left himself out. He told you everything about his partners but not about himself.
âWellâŠwhat about you Jungkook? What do you do?â You ask as he sits in front of you and sighs giving you a small smile, taking your hands into his, and looking down at them. Was he uncomfortable about talking about his career?Â
âMineâsâŠa bit more boring than theirs, Sweet girl. I donât wanna bore you.â He says looking back up at you but you shake your head at him with a pout.
âNothing about you is boring Jungkookie.â You murmur, a blush coming to your cheeks when you realize what you had said out loud, purring when Jungkook pecks your forehead and smiles at you in appreciation.
âThank you, baby, that was kind of you. IâmâŠa hybrid tattoo artist. Yeah I know it's not as extravagant as the others huh? I was just an average tattoo artist just tattooing humans but when I worked in a studio we had so many hybridâs coming in wanting tattoos and my boss would justâŠturn them away. But they werenât coming for a tattoo for the fun of it. They were coming in to cover up something that reminded them of their past. Like a bad scar or tattoo of their number they were given from fight rings or even brandings. I felt like it was unfair, they just wanted a fresh start and they werenât getting a chance to do that so I left and I opened my own studio for Hybrids. I donât charge them anything so I donât really get much profit, I get some humans from time to time and they pay because they want to keep my business running but I refuse to charge a Hybrid for wanting to cover up something traumatic to them. I know itâs not much but if it makes a difference for them to live a happier life, to show them that there are humans that care for them then Iâm happy and hopefully Iâve somewhat of a difference.â He murmurs and your heart swells. His job was anything but boring, he had a job that would make a massive impact on a hybrid's life.Â
âThatâsâŠthe kindest thing Iâve ever heard Jungkookie. What all of you do. Itâs amazing, Iâve never met anyone who cares so much about us, itâs special and I think I speak for all hybrids when I say this. Thank you. For being our voiceâŠfor being the ones to protect us and make us feelâŠnormal. You should be proud of what you do. I may not be the greatest at expressing my emotions or understanding the simplest of things but if it werenât for you guys. I would have had no future, I wouldnât be able to have my eyes opened to the good in the world. Iâm very very grateful and I promise to work hard on my healing and become a person you can be proud of.â You say shyly looking down, feeling your heart race.
Jungkook stared at you with a pout on his lips, squeezing your hands and taking a deep breath in. It was taking everything in him to not cry. It was the first time you had openly spoken about how you were comfortable living with them and how grateful you were for everything that they do for you. The first time he had heard someone really thank him and the boys for what they do. It only motivated him more. To give you a better life. To give hybrids around the world a better life.Â
âThank you so much Y/N, I didnât know how much I needed to hear that. But, Sweet Girl, you donât need to thank us for what we do for you. Itâs the right thing to do. And I donât think you understand how proud of you we are already, youâre doing so well. I know how difficult it must have been for you to trust us after everything youâve been through, it must have been scary. You are so strong and brave. The bravest person I know. You have a future now and itâs only going to get better from here on out.â Jungkook says, gently lifting your head to look at him and he gives you a look of admiration. Proud written all over his and with all your courage you quickly place a kiss on his cheek, both of your eyes going wide and cheeks flushing red. It took him by surprise but his heart skipped a beat. He wasnât expecting it but now he wanted more. It felt like a warm hug. Like a dew-freckled petal caught in a breeze, so soft and with the smallest hint of coolness. He will never forget this moment. This was a memory to remember.
âW-What was that for?â He stammers out and you shift in your spot and shrug, a shy giggle leaving your lips. He could have passed out right then and there, his heart was in frenzy. He couldnât how adorable you were. It was too much.Â
âIâŠI donât knowâŠit just felt right to do? Iâm sorry d-did I overstep?â You murmur nervously and he shakes his head quickly, a massive grin appearing on his face. He looked lovestruck. Like a teenage boy with a massive crush on his classmate. And he was beginning to feel like one. He loved six people already, and his heart had already felt full but nowâŠnow he realizes there was room for just one more person.
âYou didnât overstep baby, just nearly made my heart explode thatâs all with how cute you are.â He teases making you laugh and shake your head at him before your thoughts begin to trail remembering that his job was tattooing. Specifically Hybrids. You had something you wanted gone. Something you may not be able to really see yourself but you knew it was there. Would he help you get rid of it one day?
âActually JungkookâŠyouâre a tattoo artist, c-couldâŠc-could you cover something for me one day? W-When Iâm ready?â You ask, feeling your heart race with fear and insecurity. You were about to let him step into your past. Not much but it was enough to have you terrified. What would he think?Â
He frowns but nods slowly, noting your hesitation. He had seen many of your scars but there must be one prominent one that played on your mind a lot, one that he may have not seen but it worried me. Just how bad was it to have you practically trembling with fear? He could almost feel the anxiety coming off you.
âSweet girl, itâs okay, you donât have to be afraid, I will never judge you, you donât even have to show me it yet or even tell me how you got it. Iâm not going to make you, everything you do is at your own pace, not ours.â He reassures but you shake your head, taking a deep breath. You need to do this. This was something that you needed to get off your chest no matter how much it reminded you of your past. This was part of healing right? Overcoming the trauma.
âI need to do this. Iâve got to. I want to overcome this.â You murmur before slowly turning around so your back was facing him and biting your cheek to hold back the tears already welling up in your eyes, slowly lifting your shirt up to show him your back, shutting your eyes as you hear his breath hitch and the smell of anger hit your nose. This was one thing you hated. How you could sense pheromone changes. Jungkookâs once soft linen and lavender scent now smelt burnt and sour. The scent overwhelming your sensitive nose with how strong it was.
Jungkook was relieved you couldnât see his face though. His face contorted from concern, to worry and lastly anger. Rage. People made him sick. He felt ashamed that he was human. Because all they know how to do in the world is oppress, and discriminate. Hurt others. Hurt Hybrids. He couldnât tear his eyes away from it. The branding on your left shoulder blade will forever be imprinted in his mind. How the skin was slightly risen and horribly scarred. He canât imagine the pain you suffered from it. From getting it to the healing. It must have been excruciating. He could tell it must have suffered an infection at some point from how poorly healed it was. His stomach churned as he leans closer and just about manages to read it.Â
âProperty of Kang Seo-Junââ
âBabyâŠW-Was this who you were stuck with previously?â Jungkook whispers, feeling tears well up in his eyes. No wonder why you wanted it gone. He would no doubt cover it for you. Decorating your shoulder with something so pretty and bright, youâll forget that it was even a cover-up for it. Not a single memory of it in your mind again. Completely erased.
âY-Yeah. It i-is. You must be disgusted right? I am. H-He took away any of my belonging. The l-little ownership I had of myself. I will never forget him. H-He haunts my dreams every night. I feel like I can hear his voice still sometimes. He was by far the worst owner I had. T-The night he took me, he had some of his men pin me down and burnt it onto my skin. T-The pain was unbearable. I-I still feel it sometimes if I think about it long enough. H-He hurt me so much. H-He enjoyed my pain. H-He did s-so much but Iâm not ready to open up about it yet. He l-laughed as he did it. Called me his âlittle bitchâ, and all I was to him w-was a punching bag for his entertainment and pleasure. I-I really wanted to die. I really thought h-he was going to kill me eventually. I-I canât go back there Jungkook. I canât. H-He really will make sure Iâm dead. I was meant to die that night.â You sob covering your face, whimpering as Jungkook lifts the shirt up again that you had let go of and soothingly rubs up and down your spine, his heart aching at how your tail sadly flicks slightly. From hearing how much you really had been through even if it was just the surface.Â
âOh sweet girl, you are safe now. We will never let anyone hurt you again. He will never come near you again and he will be punished for this. Soon he will be a distant memory. Someone completely irrelevant to you. He has taken nothing from you. You are your own person. You have your very much-deserved freedom now, baby. Everything he may have ever told you is nothing but horrible lies. I am so so sorry you had to endure this and everything else you have gone through. You are so beautiful in your own unique way. I am not disgusted by you and neither are the boys. You will never experience anything like this again. You did so well telling me a little bit about your past. Iâm so proud of you. You were so brave. Everything is going to be okay now. I promise you. I swear to you.â He says so softly, hesitating before placing a gentle kiss on your scar before pulling back and a small smile appearing at your little shudder from feeling his lips on your skin but it wasnât from being uncomfortable, Jungkook knew it wasnât from the way you relaxed.Â
You say nothing, too in shock from the gentle kiss he placed, from how you managed to open up and how he never interrupted you, just sat and listened to you, and then reassured you he was proud of you and was not disgusted in you. You had never felt this way before. You couldnât put your finger on it. You didnât know what this emotion was but you hoped that in the future you would understand it. Know what it was because it felt warm, strong yet comforting. It had your heart racing but in a good way. And you wanted to feel more of it.
âI hate to ask this but can I take a photo of this Sweet girl? Donât panic, itâs okay, itâs just because this will be evidence baby. Against him. It will help Hobi hyung in finding him and having evidence against him to get him arrested and locked up. It will help Taehyungie in court for you. Thatâs all. We want to get you justice.â He elucidates when he feels you tense. You didnât want the others to know but you knew if you wanted to feel completely safe, he needed to be prosecuted. They need to know to make it happen so you nod curtly, swallowing the lump in your throat but the nod wasnât enough for Jungkook. He needed vocal consent.
âWords Sweet Girl. I need to hear your consent, not just a visual one. Verbal consent is very important in this home baby.â He murmurs, nodding in approval as he hears you whisper an âokayâ before quickly snapping a photo and checking it and quickly turning his phone off and throwing it aside, and turning you around to finally face him, wiping the tears that slid down your cheeks.
âPermission to hold you in my arms?â He asks, brushing hair out your face before gently tugging you into his arms as you nod and begin to move into his lap. You tuck your head into the crook of his neck as he wraps his arms around tightly and sways side to side, biting back a chuckle as you begin to subconsciously scent him, rubbing your head into his neck, a low happy purr leaving your lips. He felt so content and happy. You were finally listening to your animal instincts and relieving any urge you may have had but never realized. The more you got comfortable with them, the more your leopard came out. And with that, you finally lulled to sleep. The quickest you had ever fallen asleep. The safest you had ever felt to fall asleep.Â
Not a single thought in mind.
â
âKang Seo-Junâ
âHuh?â
âShe opened up to me a little. The sick bastard that left her in that alley, his name is Kang Seo-Jun.â Jungkook grits out, opening his phone and going to his gallery, clicking on the photo he had taken and practically shoving his phone into Hoseokâs face.
âThis is what she showed me, I got permission from her of course to take the photo. Weâve really underestimated how much sheâs been through guys. We knew it was severe but I never imagined the actual extent.â He whimpers sitting down and holding his head in his hands. He wanted to break down in front of you but he knew he couldnât, not when you were in tears yourself reliving the memories, he had to be strong for you but now, he could let it out.
âCan I send this to myself love bug? I need this evidence.â Hoseok breathes out, he could feel the anger boiling the longer he stared at the photo, quickly sending it to himself when he gets a silent nod from Jungkook and passing the phone to Yoongi and so on, each of their faces contorting to undeniable rage.Â
âKookie talk to us, what did she tell you? How did you manage to get her to open up to you?â Yoongi asks faintly, he could visibly see the distress the boy was in. He didnât want to tip him off the edge. Jungkook swallows the lump in his throat before looking up and begins to explain to them how you had asked about what they all do career-wise, telling them how you thanked them all for what they do and how your body language had changed as you asked him to cover up the branding when you were ready which lead you to show him and telling him how you got it. By the time he had finished, he had tears falling, Hoseok was on the phone immediately demanding his colleagues to send him any information on the demented man. They were all having internal battles with their anger. Their sadness.
âHyungsâŠs-sheâs suffered so much. I-I just know she hasnât even scratched the surface of her past. She deserved none of this. S-Sheâs too good for this world.â Jungkook sniffles, snuggling into Jimin as the older man tugs him into a hug, cradling the younger boy close and kissing the top of his head.
âSheâs safe now baby, she will suffer no more. You did good. We are proud of you for how you handled it, and how you got her to open up without pushing her. It shows us how comfortable sheâs getting. She felt safe to tell you. You took good care of her, well done Koo.â Taehyung reassures, snuggling into the other side of the younger boy, rubbing his arm encouragingly. It was no secret between them all that Jungkook was the most sensitive to Hybrid cruelty, having witnessed it at a young age, he understands how severe how bad it can get. He had such a big heart and they do everything they can to protect it.
âHeâs right, you did great, Hoseok is going to find out everything he can on the bastard and bring him down with Taehyung, he isnât going to get away with it, Y/N will get the justice she deserves at last. His karma is coming and itâs us. He will suffer for what heâs done.â Yoongi sneers, he could happily track him down right now and punish him for everything heâs done. He couldnât wait to watch the twisted crook pay for his crimes. They were a step closer to finding him. A step closer to you finally having justice, and peace of mind that your trauma wasnât for nothing.Â
You were their little leopard and theyâd do anything for you.

If yoy dont mind me asking how old are you?
Not all Sweetheart! I just turned 24 in January! You've also made me realize that none of you actually know anything about me so if you or anyone else would like to get to know more about me please send me questions I'll be more than happy to answer! The only thing however I won't be comfortable doing is face reveal as I would like to keep that private đ
Working on part 5 of Little Leopard as it won the poll posted the other day, but it is taking me some time to write as I am a little busy and unfortunately keep getting writers block but gonna work through it as much as I can. So should HOPEFULLY have a preview by Thursday and the full chapter by the weekend, fingers crossed! đ€đ

âWe need to talk.â
The boys pause and look at each other before Seokjin is clearing his throat and gestures to Namjoon to speak first but he holds his hand up and shakes his head. It seemed they all had things to discuss.Â
âYou guys should go first. We have a lot to explain.â Namjoon urges his eldest boyfriend, leaning back into the couch, smiling slightly as Jungkook takes his hand into his and squeezes it reassuringly. He could see how stressed his partner was. They could all see it. They couldnât blame him either, he had been working day and night along with Yoongi and Hoseok to try and find you in the system and find the cruel human that had left you to die in the alley and they were constantly reaching dead ends. It was like you didnât even exist.
âWell, Iâm taking her with me to the clinic tomorrow, if anyone is free you can come with me, I donât know how sheâll react in a medical environment, I need to do a full physical checkup. Whilst we were out, we took her to get a collar so she can come out with us more often and I asked if she needed anything else, she picked up heat suppressants, she was forced to have them every day, we explained to her how bad they were and when I asked when her last heat was, guys she hasnât had one for around two to three years, itâs dangerous, Leopards are meant to have heats every two to three months. If sheâll ever have one again is beyond me and if she does get one, itâs going to be intense, most likely more painful too. I have to check sheâs physically doing okay.â Seokjin delineates watching their faces harden. The system had really failed you.
âIâll go with you. Iâm working from home tomorrow anyway, I have things to do away from the station.â Hoseok says and runs a hand through his hair, he was already in a bad mood. The things that had been revealed today had sent the usually calm and collected man into a spiral of anger and disappointment.
âYou guys arenât going to like what we have to tell youâŠâ Yoongi trails off shaking his head, he couldnât believe what they had found, how they managed for it to slip through the cracks. He was ashamed. He felt like he needed to do better. Because who knows how many more had managed to be missed.
âWe did more background searching on her. We couldnât find her at all in the system, so we were beginning to assume she was illegally being âownedâ, Hobi came to help out and we had to dig really deep. We eventually managed to find her documents she was under a false name and under Snow Leopard instead of her actual hybrid breed an Amur Leopard. Meaning someone in the protection company had either been paid off to turn a blind eye or worked for the person but when we went to check her owners' files we discovered that heâs deceased, he died three years ago, cause of death was homicide so Hobi did a little digging into it but it means he was not her last owner, someone else had taken her, possibly the one who killed her last âownerâ.â Namjoon frowns and Hoseok reaches into his bag for the file and hands it to Taehyung who begins to read it, Jimin and Seokjin reading over his shoulders.
âYun Jong-Dae, aged forty at the time of his death, his autopsy had shown that he had strangulation, gunshot wounds, a disturbing amount of ketamine in him, enough to kill an elephant, any one of these could have been the cause, someone really wanted him dead but the case went cold, they couldnât find who killed him. He had a criminal record too. Gang affiliation, abuse, sexual assault, drug use and possession, attempted murder. He was a terrible person. I found receipts of multiple reports made to his house too. Neighbors had called us concerned, saying they constantly heard yelling and screams coming from his house but the officers that went to the scene did nothing saying they saw nothing suspicious. I checked which officers went to the address and every single one was from my division. She was in that fucking house and my station failed her. I am now in the process of checking every incident theyâve been reported to and having them suspended.â Hoseok fumes, jaw clenched in rage. He could have had you saved earlier if it werenât for his own colleagues turning a blind eye.
âY-You donât think he you knowâŠâ Jimin murmurs anxiously. He couldnât bring himself to say it, the word left a bitter taste in his mouth, it made him nauseous to think about you having to suffer like that.
âAs much as we want to think that he didnât the chances that he didâŠassault her is likely. We canât make her tell us either alright? She may tell us one day. We go at her pace okay?â Yoongi declares, he did not want you to feel like you had to do anything. He wants you to know you can make all your own choices from here on out.
They all nod in agreement and sit in silence, taking in everything that had been revealed, they were all filled with rage, guilt, and shame. For a while, you had been right under their noses and they hadnât had a clue.Â
It was progress, finding out more about your background, they knew that but they also knew they still had a lot more to go. It was not going to be an easy process and it was going to be tedious but for you? They had all the patience in the world.
âWhere do we go from here? Whatâs our next step? Because sheâs basically a stray hybrid right? Sheâs now isnât legally under anyone so we can adopt her? It will secure her safety with us and prevent her from being put back into the system and going through hell again. I can have the papers easily by tomorrow.â Taehyung says closing the file and handing it back to Hoseok.
âTechnically yes but we can just have her sign papers Tae baby, we want her to have her own opinion on this and consent. We want to give her options not take them away from her like has had all her life. This is something we need to sit down with her and talk about and we donât know what the process is going to be like for her, she could be put in a shelter for observations and for our pending papers to be approved.â Namjoon sighs but Taehyung shakes his head.
âIt wonât be a difficult process, I can have us down as her foster home so sheâll still be able to stay with us until the papers are approved, she isnât under a shelter, she has no owner, they canât place her in a place she wasnât at the beginning with. The process will be simple but I understand where youâre coming from, we want her approval before we start it.â Taehyung clarifies with a nod of his head. Yoongi opens his mouth to talk but closes it, the conversation coming to an end suddenly as they hear you walk down the stairs, giving you a soft smile as you step into the living room timidly.Â
âHey Cub, did you have a nice shower? You even got some new pajamas? You look much comfier now.â Yoongi grins, almost cooing at the sight of you clutching your tail in your hands, shuffling in your spot shyly as you nod curtly, a low chuckle leaving his mouth. You were too cute.Â
âWant me to brush your hair and put it up for you Sweetpea?â Hoseok asks softly, patting the empty spot beside him for you to sit.Â
âI-Itâs okay Hoseok, thank you though, is it okay if I go to bed instead of watching a movie? I-I didnât realize how tired I was.â You whisper immediately getting smiles at you and nods. How could they tell you no? You were too sweet.
âOf course, you can go to bed Princess, you donât have to ask, we can always watch a movie another day, thereâs plenty of time to, sleep well okay? Remember if you need anything at all you can always come to us.â Namjoon cooed, giving you a dimpled smile that almost had your knees going weak. It was one of the prettiest smiles you had seen. They all murmur soft goodnights and sleep wells until Jungkook stands up and pouts at you,
âHey, Sweet Girl, I promised Iâd help you with your skincare routine and how to use the things I got you, you gotta take care of it now, Baby, come on letâs go get you properly ready for bed.â
â
âHey, Jungkookie?â You hum as he helps with your skincare routine with the products he had gotten you before at the mall. You had figured out that you had sensitive skin just like him so he had bought you some products that he uses to help protect and soothe his own skin so now after your shower, he was helping you apply them, demanding that you have to take care of your skin so you donât have sore skin.Â
He smiles softly at the nickname, gently applying a toner onto your face and almost cooing at your innocent eyes staring at him curiously, watching his every move wondering what he was doing. He sometimes wondered how on earth you were a leopard hybrid. You were more like a kitten or a rabbit.
âYes, Sweet Girl?â He asks with a smile on his face, raising an eyebrow at your hesitation to continue with what you wanted to say. He pats your head as a reassurance that you could talk to him without worrying, nodding as you open your mouth to speak.
âWhat do you all do for a living?â You ask quietly, noticing the look of surprise on his face, he hadnât expected you to ask about their careers but he was willing to answer. If it meant getting you to open up to them more and gaining your trust more then heâd answer. It wasnât like they had anything to hide anyway.
âWell, we all work in different things but we all work together in a way if that makes sense? Our jobs link us together. Not really mine but sometimes. Namjoonie Hyung and Yoongi Hyung work together the most. Namjoon is the founder and CEO of a Hybrid Protection company and Yoongi is the deputy CEO. They help any and every hybrid who needs it, whether they be a stray, from an abusive home, fight rings, auctions, literally anything. They make sure that no matter where the hybrid comes from they are safe and get everything they need. I guess sometimes I help out if they have too much on their hands." He begins smiling slightly. He was always proud of what his partners do, he places aside the products before focusing his attention on you and continuing,Â
"Hobi Hyung is a detective in the police force. He works on all kinds of cases. He likes to mostly solve hybrid-related cases, knowing that other stations can usually turn them down and go for human ones. He wants them to get given justice just as equally as humans do. Jin Hyung is a Hybrid Medical Doctor. He treats all Hybrids' injuries and any illnesses they may have, he wants to save and care for as many hybrids as he can, it breaks his heart if he canât. Tae Tae is a Hybrid Representative Lawyer. He basically supports any Hybrid in court and stuff like that, whether it be a change in adoption, abuse cases, or all sorts. Jiminie owns his own Hybrid Shelter. So he takes in any abandoned, stray, recently removed from abusive homes, even abandoned hybrid infants and children. He gives them a home they may have never gotten, and treatments for anything from medical or mentally, they have a choice of wanting to stay and live there or have a chance to have another home. He is so thorough with checking every single personâs background who comes in wanting to adopt. Heâs very protective of them all.â Jungkook explains chuckling as you stare at him in awe, they were doing something barely anyone would do.
They all work with something related to hybrids. Wanting to protect them and give them more rights. Live an equal life as humans, to end the oppression and stigmas against Hybrids. Activists in a way. But you frown when you realize something. He had left himself out. He told you everything about his partners but not about himself.
âWellâŠwhat about you Jungkook? What do you do?â You ask as he sits in front of you and sighs giving you a small smile, taking your hands into his, and looking down at them. Was he uncomfortable about talking about his career?Â
âMineâsâŠa bit more boring than theirs, Sweet girl. I donât wanna bore you.â He says looking back up at you but you shake your head at him with a pout.
âNothing about you is boring Jungkookie.â You murmur, a blush coming to your cheeks when you realize what you had said out loud, purring when Jungkook pecks your forehead and smiles at you in appreciation.
âThank you, baby, that was kind of you. IâmâŠa hybrid tattoo artist. Yeah I know it's not as extravagant as the others huh? I was just an average tattoo artist just tattooing humans but when I worked in a studio we had so many hybridâs coming in wanting tattoos and my boss would justâŠturn them away. But they werenât coming for a tattoo for the fun of it. They were coming in to cover up something that reminded them of their past. Like a bad scar or tattoo of their number they were given from fight rings or even brandings. I felt like it was unfair, they just wanted a fresh start and they werenât getting a chance to do that so I left and I opened my own studio for Hybrids. I donât charge them anything so I donât really get much profit, I get some humans from time to time and they pay because they want to keep my business running but I refuse to charge a Hybrid for wanting to cover up something traumatic to them. I know itâs not much but if it makes a difference for them to live a happier life, to show them that there are humans that care for them then Iâm happy and hopefully Iâve somewhat of a difference.â He murmurs and your heart swells. His job was anything but boring, he had a job that would make a massive impact on a hybrid's life.Â
âThatâsâŠthe kindest thing Iâve ever heard Jungkookie. What all of you do. Itâs amazing, Iâve never met anyone who cares so much about us, itâs special and I think I speak for all hybrids when I say this. Thank you. For being our voiceâŠfor being the ones to protect us and make us feelâŠnormal. You should be proud of what you do. I may not be the greatest at expressing my emotions or understanding the simplest of things but if it werenât for you guys. I would have had no future, I wouldnât be able to have my eyes opened to the good in the world. Iâm very very grateful and I promise to work hard on my healing and become a person you can be proud of.â You say shyly looking down, feeling your heart race.
Jungkook stared at you with a pout on his lips, squeezing your hands and taking a deep breath in. It was taking everything in him to not cry. It was the first time you had openly spoken about how you were comfortable living with them and how grateful you were for everything that they do for you. The first time he had heard someone really thank him and the boys for what they do. It only motivated him more. To give you a better life. To give hybrids around the world a better life.Â
âThank you so much Y/N, I didnât know how much I needed to hear that. But, Sweet Girl, you donât need to thank us for what we do for you. Itâs the right thing to do. And I donât think you understand how proud of you we are already, youâre doing so well. I know how difficult it must have been for you to trust us after everything youâve been through, it must have been scary. You are so strong and brave. The bravest person I know. You have a future now and itâs only going to get better from here on out.â Jungkook says, gently lifting your head to look at him and he gives you a look of admiration. Proud written all over his and with all your courage you quickly place a kiss on his cheek, both of your eyes going wide and cheeks flushing red. It took him by surprise but his heart skipped a beat. He wasnât expecting it but now he wanted more. It felt like a warm hug. Like a dew-freckled petal caught in a breeze, so soft and with the smallest hint of coolness. He will never forget this moment. This was a memory to remember.
âW-What was that for?â He stammers out and you shift in your spot and shrug, a shy giggle leaving your lips. He could have passed out right then and there, his heart was in frenzy. He couldnât how adorable you were. It was too much.Â
âIâŠI donât knowâŠit just felt right to do? Iâm sorry d-did I overstep?â You murmur nervously and he shakes his head quickly, a massive grin appearing on his face. He looked lovestruck. Like a teenage boy with a massive crush on his classmate. And he was beginning to feel like one. He loved six people already, and his heart had already felt full but nowâŠnow he realizes there was room for just one more person.
âYou didnât overstep baby, just nearly made my heart explode thatâs all with how cute you are.â He teases making you laugh and shake your head at him before your thoughts begin to trail remembering that his job was tattooing. Specifically Hybrids. You had something you wanted gone. Something you may not be able to really see yourself but you knew it was there. Would he help you get rid of it one day?
âActually JungkookâŠyouâre a tattoo artist, c-couldâŠc-could you cover something for me one day? W-When Iâm ready?â You ask, feeling your heart race with fear and insecurity. You were about to let him step into your past. Not much but it was enough to have you terrified. What would he think?Â
He frowns but nods slowly, noting your hesitation. He had seen many of your scars but there must be one prominent one that played on your mind a lot, one that he may have not seen but it worried me. Just how bad was it to have you practically trembling with fear? He could almost feel the anxiety coming off you.
âSweet girl, itâs okay, you donât have to be afraid, I will never judge you, you donât even have to show me it yet or even tell me how you got it. Iâm not going to make you, everything you do is at your own pace, not ours.â He reassures but you shake your head, taking a deep breath. You need to do this. This was something that you needed to get off your chest no matter how much it reminded you of your past. This was part of healing right? Overcoming the trauma.
âI need to do this. Iâve got to. I want to overcome this.â You murmur before slowly turning around so your back was facing him and biting your cheek to hold back the tears already welling up in your eyes, slowly lifting your shirt up to show him your back, shutting your eyes as you hear his breath hitch and the smell of anger hit your nose. This was one thing you hated. How you could sense pheromone changes. Jungkookâs once soft linen and lavender scent now smelt burnt and sour. The scent overwhelming your sensitive nose with how strong it was.
Jungkook was relieved you couldnât see his face though. His face contorted from concern, to worry and lastly anger. Rage. People made him sick. He felt ashamed that he was human. Because all they know how to do in the world is oppress, and discriminate. Hurt others. Hurt Hybrids. He couldnât tear his eyes away from it. The branding on your left shoulder blade will forever be imprinted in his mind. How the skin was slightly risen and horribly scarred. He canât imagine the pain you suffered from it. From getting it to the healing. It must have been excruciating. He could tell it must have suffered an infection at some point from how poorly healed it was. His stomach churned as he leans closer and just about manages to read it.Â
âProperty of Kang Seo-Junââ
âBabyâŠW-Was this who you were stuck with previously?â Jungkook whispers, feeling tears well up in his eyes. No wonder why you wanted it gone. He would no doubt cover it for you. Decorating your shoulder with something so pretty and bright, youâll forget that it was even a cover-up for it. Not a single memory of it in your mind again. Completely erased.
âY-Yeah. It i-is. You must be disgusted right? I am. H-He took away any of my belonging. The l-little ownership I had of myself. I will never forget him. H-He haunts my dreams every night. I feel like I can hear his voice still sometimes. He was by far the worst owner I had. T-The night he took me, he had some of his men pin me down and burnt it onto my skin. T-The pain was unbearable. I-I still feel it sometimes if I think about it long enough. H-He hurt me so much. H-He enjoyed my pain. H-He did s-so much but Iâm not ready to open up about it yet. He l-laughed as he did it. Called me his âlittle bitchâ, and all I was to him w-was a punching bag for his entertainment and pleasure. I-I really wanted to die. I really thought h-he was going to kill me eventually. I-I canât go back there Jungkook. I canât. H-He really will make sure Iâm dead. I was meant to die that night.â You sob covering your face, whimpering as Jungkook lifts the shirt up again that you had let go of and soothingly rubs up and down your spine, his heart aching at how your tail sadly flicks slightly. From hearing how much you really had been through even if it was just the surface.Â
âOh sweet girl, you are safe now. We will never let anyone hurt you again. He will never come near you again and he will be punished for this. Soon he will be a distant memory. Someone completely irrelevant to you. He has taken nothing from you. You are your own person. You have your very much-deserved freedom now, baby. Everything he may have ever told you is nothing but horrible lies. I am so so sorry you had to endure this and everything else you have gone through. You are so beautiful in your own unique way. I am not disgusted by you and neither are the boys. You will never experience anything like this again. You did so well telling me a little bit about your past. Iâm so proud of you. You were so brave. Everything is going to be okay now. I promise you. I swear to you.â He says so softly, hesitating before placing a gentle kiss on your scar before pulling back and a small smile appearing at your little shudder from feeling his lips on your skin but it wasnât from being uncomfortable, Jungkook knew it wasnât from the way you relaxed.Â
You say nothing, too in shock from the gentle kiss he placed, from how you managed to open up and how he never interrupted you, just sat and listened to you, and then reassured you he was proud of you and was not disgusted in you. You had never felt this way before. You couldnât put your finger on it. You didnât know what this emotion was but you hoped that in the future you would understand it. Know what it was because it felt warm, strong yet comforting. It had your heart racing but in a good way. And you wanted to feel more of it.
âI hate to ask this but can I take a photo of this Sweet girl? Donât panic, itâs okay, itâs just because this will be evidence baby. Against him. It will help Hobi hyung in finding him and having evidence against him to get him arrested and locked up. It will help Taehyungie in court for you. Thatâs all. We want to get you justice.â He elucidates when he feels you tense. You didnât want the others to know but you knew if you wanted to feel completely safe, he needed to be prosecuted. They need to know to make it happen so you nod curtly, swallowing the lump in your throat but the nod wasnât enough for Jungkook. He needed vocal consent.
âWords Sweet Girl. I need to hear your consent, not just a visual one. Verbal consent is very important in this home baby.â He murmurs, nodding in approval as he hears you whisper an âokayâ before quickly snapping a photo and checking it and quickly turning his phone off and throwing it aside, and turning you around to finally face him, wiping the tears that slid down your cheeks.
âPermission to hold you in my arms?â He asks, brushing hair out your face before gently tugging you into his arms as you nod and begin to move into his lap. You tuck your head into the crook of his neck as he wraps his arms around tightly and sways side to side, biting back a chuckle as you begin to subconsciously scent him, rubbing your head into his neck, a low happy purr leaving your lips. He felt so content and happy. You were finally listening to your animal instincts and relieving any urge you may have had but never realized. The more you got comfortable with them, the more your leopard came out. And with that, you finally lulled to sleep. The quickest you had ever fallen asleep. The safest you had ever felt to fall asleep.Â
Not a single thought in mind.
â
âKang Seo-Junâ
âHuh?â
âShe opened up to me a little. The sick bastard that left her in that alley, his name is Kang Seo-Jun.â Jungkook grits out, opening his phone and going to his gallery, clicking on the photo he had taken and practically shoving his phone into Hoseokâs face.
âThis is what she showed me, I got permission from her of course to take the photo. Weâve really underestimated how much sheâs been through guys. We knew it was severe but I never imagined the actual extent.â He whimpers sitting down and holding his head in his hands. He wanted to break down in front of you but he knew he couldnât, not when you were in tears yourself reliving the memories, he had to be strong for you but now, he could let it out.
âCan I send this to myself love bug? I need this evidence.â Hoseok breathes out, he could feel the anger boiling the longer he stared at the photo, quickly sending it to himself when he gets a silent nod from Jungkook and passing the phone to Yoongi and so on, each of their faces contorting to undeniable rage.Â
âKookie talk to us, what did she tell you? How did you manage to get her to open up to you?â Yoongi asks faintly, he could visibly see the distress the boy was in. He didnât want to tip him off the edge. Jungkook swallows the lump in his throat before looking up and begins to explain to them how you had asked about what they all do career-wise, telling them how you thanked them all for what they do and how your body language had changed as you asked him to cover up the branding when you were ready which lead you to show him and telling him how you got it. By the time he had finished, he had tears falling, Hoseok was on the phone immediately demanding his colleagues to send him any information on the demented man. They were all having internal battles with their anger. Their sadness.
âHyungsâŠs-sheâs suffered so much. I-I just know she hasnât even scratched the surface of her past. She deserved none of this. S-Sheâs too good for this world.â Jungkook sniffles, snuggling into Jimin as the older man tugs him into a hug, cradling the younger boy close and kissing the top of his head.
âSheâs safe now baby, she will suffer no more. You did good. We are proud of you for how you handled it, and how you got her to open up without pushing her. It shows us how comfortable sheâs getting. She felt safe to tell you. You took good care of her, well done Koo.â Taehyung reassures, snuggling into the other side of the younger boy, rubbing his arm encouragingly. It was no secret between them all that Jungkook was the most sensitive to Hybrid cruelty, having witnessed it at a young age, he understands how severe how bad it can get. He had such a big heart and they do everything they can to protect it.
âHeâs right, you did great, Hoseok is going to find out everything he can on the bastard and bring him down with Taehyung, he isnât going to get away with it, Y/N will get the justice she deserves at last. His karma is coming and itâs us. He will suffer for what heâs done.â Yoongi sneers, he could happily track him down right now and punish him for everything heâs done. He couldnât wait to watch the twisted crook pay for his crimes. They were a step closer to finding him. A step closer to you finally having justice, and peace of mind that your trauma wasnât for nothing.Â
You were their little leopard and theyâd do anything for you.

No update for Little Leopard this week but there will be one next week hopefully! I'm super busy with work and my partners birthday but should be able to have one out next week! đđ
Do you have a photo of what you have in mind for your LeopardMC! ?

I saw this one and immediately thought of your story and I think itâs is cute how she has the little white on her feet.
I do have one actually! That's a perfect image of how her Leopard looks like! However I have this one!

I just feel like her fur coat would be this color! More vibrant and definitely like your image she'd be fluffy and have white on her paws but her eyes would be bright and captivating like these!

We'll be finally seeing her in full leopard form very soon! đ
So does this mean that at one point in her past she was in a good and safe place?
Yes and no. It was more lenient than what she expierenced with others but there was still rules she had to follow and still had no freedom or treated properly. She still was oppressed and seen lower than them. It definitely caused trauma to her still because even if there wasn't as much physical abuse, mental abuse can be just as bad if not worse. It will be revealed more in the future when she finally comes to terms with her past and allows the boys fully into her feelings and her experiences. I don't want to spoil a lot so please be paitent it will be revealed soon đ
about the little leopard, i just feel like the mc seems to be her own psychologist. The trauma is mentioned but not shown...? where's the mc of chapters 1&2? how has she been able to progress so quickly with such horrible trauma?
Hey! In a way yes she is because in reality, we're all our own psychologists, we just have that extra nudge from fully qualified ones. We have to heal ourselves to be able to let others in. The mc of Chapters 1&2 is very much still there she is still struggling a lot! Mc just feels less tense and comforted around the boys however mentally she is in a lot of anguish, the trauma is mentioned and not shown a lot because she's been conditioned by her past not to show or express her emotions, tell people how she is feeling and to not been allowed to tell anyone anything. It's a hard habit to break after so many years! But also it's not shown as much because I don't want to have each chapter sound repetitive and like she isn't progressing at all! Each chapter to come will have more of it shown the more she opens up to the boys about it. I'm trying to also be mindful of how much I show as I don't want to trigger any of my readers who may have experienced anything I put in. i.e abuse. Everyone has their own coping mechanisms and hiding everything is all that she's known as of now but as seen in Chapter 4 she is beginning to open up and explain how badly she wants to finally be healed from the trauma!
can you please add me to the little leopard tag list

Little Leopard [4]

These seven men were the men you loved and cherished. These men were your mates. Your safety blanket. And to them. You were their Little Leopard."

âWe need to talk.â
The boys pause and look at each other before Seokjin is clearing his throat and gestures to Namjoon to speak first but he holds his hand up and shakes his head. It seemed they all had things to discuss.Â
âYou guys should go first. We have a lot to explain.â Namjoon urges his eldest boyfriend, leaning back into the couch, smiling slightly as Jungkook takes his hand into his and squeezes it reassuringly. He could see how stressed his partner was. They could all see it. They couldnât blame him either, he had been working day and night along with Yoongi and Hoseok to try and find you in the system and find the cruel human that had left you to die in the alley and they were constantly reaching dead ends. It was like you didnât even exist.
âWell, Iâm taking her with me to the clinic tomorrow, if anyone is free you can come with me, I donât know how sheâll react in a medical environment, I need to do a full physical checkup. Whilst we were out, we took her to get a collar so she can come out with us more often and I asked if she needed anything else, she picked up heat suppressants, she was forced to have them every day, we explained to her how bad they were and when I asked when her last heat was, guys she hasnât had one for around two to three years, itâs dangerous, Leopards are meant to have heats every two to three months. If sheâll ever have one again is beyond me and if she does get one, itâs going to be intense, most likely more painful too. I have to check sheâs physically doing okay.â Seokjin delineates watching their faces harden. The system had really failed you.
âIâll go with you. Iâm working from home tomorrow anyway, I have things to do away from the station.â Hoseok says and runs a hand through his hair, he was already in a bad mood. The things that had been revealed today had sent the usually calm and collected man into a spiral of anger and disappointment.
âYou guys arenât going to like what we have to tell youâŠâ Yoongi trails off shaking his head, he couldnât believe what they had found, how they managed for it to slip through the cracks. He was ashamed. He felt like he needed to do better. Because who knows how many more had managed to be missed.
âWe did more background searching on her. We couldnât find her at all in the system, so we were beginning to assume she was illegally being âownedâ, Hobi came to help out and we had to dig really deep. We eventually managed to find her documents she was under a false name and under Snow Leopard instead of her actual hybrid breed an Amur Leopard. Meaning someone in the protection company had either been paid off to turn a blind eye or worked for the person but when we went to check her owners' files we discovered that heâs deceased, he died three years ago, cause of death was homicide so Hobi did a little digging into it but it means he was not her last owner, someone else had taken her, possibly the one who killed her last âownerâ.â Namjoon frowns and Hoseok reaches into his bag for the file and hands it to Taehyung who begins to read it, Jimin and Seokjin reading over his shoulders.
âYun Jong-Dae, aged forty at the time of his death, his autopsy had shown that he had strangulation, gunshot wounds, a disturbing amount of ketamine in him, enough to kill an elephant, any one of these could have been the cause, someone really wanted him dead but the case went cold, they couldnât find who killed him. He had a criminal record too. Gang affiliation, abuse, sexual assault, drug use and possession, attempted murder. He was a terrible person. I found receipts of multiple reports made to his house too. Neighbors had called us concerned, saying they constantly heard yelling and screams coming from his house but the officers that went to the scene did nothing saying they saw nothing suspicious. I checked which officers went to the address and every single one was from my division. She was in that fucking house and my station failed her. I am now in the process of checking every incident theyâve been reported to and having them suspended.â Hoseok fumes, jaw clenched in rage. He could have had you saved earlier if it werenât for his own colleagues turning a blind eye.
âY-You donât think he you knowâŠâ Jimin murmurs anxiously. He couldnât bring himself to say it, the word left a bitter taste in his mouth, it made him nauseous to think about you having to suffer like that.
âAs much as we want to think that he didnât the chances that he didâŠassault her is likely. We canât make her tell us either alright? She may tell us one day. We go at her pace okay?â Yoongi declares, he did not want you to feel like you had to do anything. He wants you to know you can make all your own choices from here on out.
They all nod in agreement and sit in silence, taking in everything that had been revealed, they were all filled with rage, guilt, and shame. For a while, you had been right under their noses and they hadnât had a clue.Â
It was progress, finding out more about your background, they knew that but they also knew they still had a lot more to go. It was not going to be an easy process and it was going to be tedious but for you? They had all the patience in the world.
âWhere do we go from here? Whatâs our next step? Because sheâs basically a stray hybrid right? Sheâs now isnât legally under anyone so we can adopt her? It will secure her safety with us and prevent her from being put back into the system and going through hell again. I can have the papers easily by tomorrow.â Taehyung says closing the file and handing it back to Hoseok.
âTechnically yes but we can just have her sign papers Tae baby, we want her to have her own opinion on this and consent. We want to give her options not take them away from her like has had all her life. This is something we need to sit down with her and talk about and we donât know what the process is going to be like for her, she could be put in a shelter for observations and for our pending papers to be approved.â Namjoon sighs but Taehyung shakes his head.
âIt wonât be a difficult process, I can have us down as her foster home so sheâll still be able to stay with us until the papers are approved, she isnât under a shelter, she has no owner, they canât place her in a place she wasnât at the beginning with. The process will be simple but I understand where youâre coming from, we want her approval before we start it.â Taehyung clarifies with a nod of his head. Yoongi opens his mouth to talk but closes it, the conversation coming to an end suddenly as they hear you walk down the stairs, giving you a soft smile as you step into the living room timidly.Â
âHey Cub, did you have a nice shower? You even got some new pajamas? You look much comfier now.â Yoongi grins, almost cooing at the sight of you clutching your tail in your hands, shuffling in your spot shyly as you nod curtly, a low chuckle leaving his mouth. You were too cute.Â
âWant me to brush your hair and put it up for you Sweetpea?â Hoseok asks softly, patting the empty spot beside him for you to sit.Â
âI-Itâs okay Hoseok, thank you though, is it okay if I go to bed instead of watching a movie? I-I didnât realize how tired I was.â You whisper immediately getting smiles at you and nods. How could they tell you no? You were too sweet.
âOf course, you can go to bed Princess, you donât have to ask, we can always watch a movie another day, thereâs plenty of time to, sleep well okay? Remember if you need anything at all you can always come to us.â Namjoon cooed, giving you a dimpled smile that almost had your knees going weak. It was one of the prettiest smiles you had seen. They all murmur soft goodnights and sleep wells until Jungkook stands up and pouts at you,
âHey, Sweet Girl, I promised Iâd help you with your skincare routine and how to use the things I got you, you gotta take care of it now, Baby, come on letâs go get you properly ready for bed.â
â
âHey, Jungkookie?â You hum as he helps with your skincare routine with the products he had gotten you before at the mall. You had figured out that you had sensitive skin just like him so he had bought you some products that he uses to help protect and soothe his own skin so now after your shower, he was helping you apply them, demanding that you have to take care of your skin so you donât have sore skin.Â
He smiles softly at the nickname, gently applying a toner onto your face and almost cooing at your innocent eyes staring at him curiously, watching his every move wondering what he was doing. He sometimes wondered how on earth you were a leopard hybrid. You were more like a kitten or a rabbit.
âYes, Sweet Girl?â He asks with a smile on his face, raising an eyebrow at your hesitation to continue with what you wanted to say. He pats your head as a reassurance that you could talk to him without worrying, nodding as you open your mouth to speak.
âWhat do you all do for a living?â You ask quietly, noticing the look of surprise on his face, he hadnât expected you to ask about their careers but he was willing to answer. If it meant getting you to open up to them more and gaining your trust more then heâd answer. It wasnât like they had anything to hide anyway.
âWell, we all work in different things but we all work together in a way if that makes sense? Our jobs link us together. Not really mine but sometimes. Namjoonie Hyung and Yoongi Hyung work together the most. Namjoon is the founder and CEO of a Hybrid Protection company and Yoongi is the deputy CEO. They help any and every hybrid who needs it, whether they be a stray, from an abusive home, fight rings, auctions, literally anything. They make sure that no matter where the hybrid comes from they are safe and get everything they need. I guess sometimes I help out if they have too much on their hands." He begins smiling slightly. He was always proud of what his partners do, he places aside the products before focusing his attention on you and continuing,Â
"Hobi Hyung is a detective in the police force. He works on all kinds of cases. He likes to mostly solve hybrid-related cases, knowing that other stations can usually turn them down and go for human ones. He wants them to get given justice just as equally as humans do. Jin Hyung is a Hybrid Medical Doctor. He treats all Hybrids' injuries and any illnesses they may have, he wants to save and care for as many hybrids as he can, it breaks his heart if he canât. Tae Tae is a Hybrid Representative Lawyer. He basically supports any Hybrid in court and stuff like that, whether it be a change in adoption, abuse cases, or all sorts. Jiminie owns his own Hybrid Shelter. So he takes in any abandoned, stray, recently removed from abusive homes, even abandoned hybrid infants and children. He gives them a home they may have never gotten, and treatments for anything from medical or mentally, they have a choice of wanting to stay and live there or have a chance to have another home. He is so thorough with checking every single personâs background who comes in wanting to adopt. Heâs very protective of them all.â Jungkook explains chuckling as you stare at him in awe, they were doing something barely anyone would do.
They all work with something related to hybrids. Wanting to protect them and give them more rights. Live an equal life as humans, to end the oppression and stigmas against Hybrids. Activists in a way. But you frown when you realize something. He had left himself out. He told you everything about his partners but not about himself.
âWellâŠwhat about you Jungkook? What do you do?â You ask as he sits in front of you and sighs giving you a small smile, taking your hands into his, and looking down at them. Was he uncomfortable about talking about his career?Â
âMineâsâŠa bit more boring than theirs, Sweet girl. I donât wanna bore you.â He says looking back up at you but you shake your head at him with a pout.
âNothing about you is boring Jungkookie.â You murmur, a blush coming to your cheeks when you realize what you had said out loud, purring when Jungkook pecks your forehead and smiles at you in appreciation.
âThank you, baby, that was kind of you. IâmâŠa hybrid tattoo artist. Yeah I know it's not as extravagant as the others huh? I was just an average tattoo artist just tattooing humans but when I worked in a studio we had so many hybridâs coming in wanting tattoos and my boss would justâŠturn them away. But they werenât coming for a tattoo for the fun of it. They were coming in to cover up something that reminded them of their past. Like a bad scar or tattoo of their number they were given from fight rings or even brandings. I felt like it was unfair, they just wanted a fresh start and they werenât getting a chance to do that so I left and I opened my own studio for Hybrids. I donât charge them anything so I donât really get much profit, I get some humans from time to time and they pay because they want to keep my business running but I refuse to charge a Hybrid for wanting to cover up something traumatic to them. I know itâs not much but if it makes a difference for them to live a happier life, to show them that there are humans that care for them then Iâm happy and hopefully Iâve somewhat of a difference.â He murmurs and your heart swells. His job was anything but boring, he had a job that would make a massive impact on a hybrid's life.Â
âThatâsâŠthe kindest thing Iâve ever heard Jungkookie. What all of you do. Itâs amazing, Iâve never met anyone who cares so much about us, itâs special and I think I speak for all hybrids when I say this. Thank you. For being our voiceâŠfor being the ones to protect us and make us feelâŠnormal. You should be proud of what you do. I may not be the greatest at expressing my emotions or understanding the simplest of things but if it werenât for you guys. I would have had no future, I wouldnât be able to have my eyes opened to the good in the world. Iâm very very grateful and I promise to work hard on my healing and become a person you can be proud of.â You say shyly looking down, feeling your heart race.
Jungkook stared at you with a pout on his lips, squeezing your hands and taking a deep breath in. It was taking everything in him to not cry. It was the first time you had openly spoken about how you were comfortable living with them and how grateful you were for everything that they do for you. The first time he had heard someone really thank him and the boys for what they do. It only motivated him more. To give you a better life. To give hybrids around the world a better life.Â
âThank you so much Y/N, I didnât know how much I needed to hear that. But, Sweet Girl, you donât need to thank us for what we do for you. Itâs the right thing to do. And I donât think you understand how proud of you we are already, youâre doing so well. I know how difficult it must have been for you to trust us after everything youâve been through, it must have been scary. You are so strong and brave. The bravest person I know. You have a future now and itâs only going to get better from here on out.â Jungkook says, gently lifting your head to look at him and he gives you a look of admiration. Proud written all over his and with all your courage you quickly place a kiss on his cheek, both of your eyes going wide and cheeks flushing red. It took him by surprise but his heart skipped a beat. He wasnât expecting it but now he wanted more. It felt like a warm hug. Like a dew-freckled petal caught in a breeze, so soft and with the smallest hint of coolness. He will never forget this moment. This was a memory to remember.
âW-What was that for?â He stammers out and you shift in your spot and shrug, a shy giggle leaving your lips. He could have passed out right then and there, his heart was in frenzy. He couldnât how adorable you were. It was too much.Â
âIâŠI donât knowâŠit just felt right to do? Iâm sorry d-did I overstep?â You murmur nervously and he shakes his head quickly, a massive grin appearing on his face. He looked lovestruck. Like a teenage boy with a massive crush on his classmate. And he was beginning to feel like one. He loved six people already, and his heart had already felt full but nowâŠnow he realizes there was room for just one more person.
âYou didnât overstep baby, just nearly made my heart explode thatâs all with how cute you are.â He teases making you laugh and shake your head at him before your thoughts begin to trail remembering that his job was tattooing. Specifically Hybrids. You had something you wanted gone. Something you may not be able to really see yourself but you knew it was there. Would he help you get rid of it one day?
âActually JungkookâŠyouâre a tattoo artist, c-couldâŠc-could you cover something for me one day? W-When Iâm ready?â You ask, feeling your heart race with fear and insecurity. You were about to let him step into your past. Not much but it was enough to have you terrified. What would he think?Â
He frowns but nods slowly, noting your hesitation. He had seen many of your scars but there must be one prominent one that played on your mind a lot, one that he may have not seen but it worried me. Just how bad was it to have you practically trembling with fear? He could almost feel the anxiety coming off you.
âSweet girl, itâs okay, you donât have to be afraid, I will never judge you, you donât even have to show me it yet or even tell me how you got it. Iâm not going to make you, everything you do is at your own pace, not ours.â He reassures but you shake your head, taking a deep breath. You need to do this. This was something that you needed to get off your chest no matter how much it reminded you of your past. This was part of healing right? Overcoming the trauma.
âI need to do this. Iâve got to. I want to overcome this.â You murmur before slowly turning around so your back was facing him and biting your cheek to hold back the tears already welling up in your eyes, slowly lifting your shirt up to show him your back, shutting your eyes as you hear his breath hitch and the smell of anger hit your nose. This was one thing you hated. How you could sense pheromone changes. Jungkookâs once soft linen and lavender scent now smelt burnt and sour. The scent overwhelming your sensitive nose with how strong it was.
Jungkook was relieved you couldnât see his face though. His face contorted from concern, to worry and lastly anger. Rage. People made him sick. He felt ashamed that he was human. Because all they know how to do in the world is oppress, and discriminate. Hurt others. Hurt Hybrids. He couldnât tear his eyes away from it. The branding on your left shoulder blade will forever be imprinted in his mind. How the skin was slightly risen and horribly scarred. He canât imagine the pain you suffered from it. From getting it to the healing. It must have been excruciating. He could tell it must have suffered an infection at some point from how poorly healed it was. His stomach churned as he leans closer and just about manages to read it.Â
âProperty of Kang Seo-Junââ
âBabyâŠW-Was this who you were stuck with previously?â Jungkook whispers, feeling tears well up in his eyes. No wonder why you wanted it gone. He would no doubt cover it for you. Decorating your shoulder with something so pretty and bright, youâll forget that it was even a cover-up for it. Not a single memory of it in your mind again. Completely erased.
âY-Yeah. It i-is. You must be disgusted right? I am. H-He took away any of my belonging. The l-little ownership I had of myself. I will never forget him. H-He haunts my dreams every night. I feel like I can hear his voice still sometimes. He was by far the worst owner I had. T-The night he took me, he had some of his men pin me down and burnt it onto my skin. T-The pain was unbearable. I-I still feel it sometimes if I think about it long enough. H-He hurt me so much. H-He enjoyed my pain. H-He did s-so much but Iâm not ready to open up about it yet. He l-laughed as he did it. Called me his âlittle bitchâ, and all I was to him w-was a punching bag for his entertainment and pleasure. I-I really wanted to die. I really thought h-he was going to kill me eventually. I-I canât go back there Jungkook. I canât. H-He really will make sure Iâm dead. I was meant to die that night.â You sob covering your face, whimpering as Jungkook lifts the shirt up again that you had let go of and soothingly rubs up and down your spine, his heart aching at how your tail sadly flicks slightly. From hearing how much you really had been through even if it was just the surface.Â
âOh sweet girl, you are safe now. We will never let anyone hurt you again. He will never come near you again and he will be punished for this. Soon he will be a distant memory. Someone completely irrelevant to you. He has taken nothing from you. You are your own person. You have your very much-deserved freedom now, baby. Everything he may have ever told you is nothing but horrible lies. I am so so sorry you had to endure this and everything else you have gone through. You are so beautiful in your own unique way. I am not disgusted by you and neither are the boys. You will never experience anything like this again. You did so well telling me a little bit about your past. Iâm so proud of you. You were so brave. Everything is going to be okay now. I promise you. I swear to you.â He says so softly, hesitating before placing a gentle kiss on your scar before pulling back and a small smile appearing at your little shudder from feeling his lips on your skin but it wasnât from being uncomfortable, Jungkook knew it wasnât from the way you relaxed.Â
You say nothing, too in shock from the gentle kiss he placed, from how you managed to open up and how he never interrupted you, just sat and listened to you, and then reassured you he was proud of you and was not disgusted in you. You had never felt this way before. You couldnât put your finger on it. You didnât know what this emotion was but you hoped that in the future you would understand it. Know what it was because it felt warm, strong yet comforting. It had your heart racing but in a good way. And you wanted to feel more of it.
âI hate to ask this but can I take a photo of this Sweet girl? Donât panic, itâs okay, itâs just because this will be evidence baby. Against him. It will help Hobi hyung in finding him and having evidence against him to get him arrested and locked up. It will help Taehyungie in court for you. Thatâs all. We want to get you justice.â He elucidates when he feels you tense. You didnât want the others to know but you knew if you wanted to feel completely safe, he needed to be prosecuted. They need to know to make it happen so you nod curtly, swallowing the lump in your throat but the nod wasnât enough for Jungkook. He needed vocal consent.
âWords Sweet Girl. I need to hear your consent, not just a visual one. Verbal consent is very important in this home baby.â He murmurs, nodding in approval as he hears you whisper an âokayâ before quickly snapping a photo and checking it and quickly turning his phone off and throwing it aside, and turning you around to finally face him, wiping the tears that slid down your cheeks.
âPermission to hold you in my arms?â He asks, brushing hair out your face before gently tugging you into his arms as you nod and begin to move into his lap. You tuck your head into the crook of his neck as he wraps his arms around tightly and sways side to side, biting back a chuckle as you begin to subconsciously scent him, rubbing your head into his neck, a low happy purr leaving your lips. He felt so content and happy. You were finally listening to your animal instincts and relieving any urge you may have had but never realized. The more you got comfortable with them, the more your leopard came out. And with that, you finally lulled to sleep. The quickest you had ever fallen asleep. The safest you had ever felt to fall asleep.Â
Not a single thought in mind.
â
âKang Seo-Junâ
âHuh?â
âShe opened up to me a little. The sick bastard that left her in that alley, his name is Kang Seo-Jun.â Jungkook grits out, opening his phone and going to his gallery, clicking on the photo he had taken and practically shoving his phone into Hoseokâs face.
âThis is what she showed me, I got permission from her of course to take the photo. Weâve really underestimated how much sheâs been through guys. We knew it was severe but I never imagined the actual extent.â He whimpers sitting down and holding his head in his hands. He wanted to break down in front of you but he knew he couldnât, not when you were in tears yourself reliving the memories, he had to be strong for you but now, he could let it out.
âCan I send this to myself love bug? I need this evidence.â Hoseok breathes out, he could feel the anger boiling the longer he stared at the photo, quickly sending it to himself when he gets a silent nod from Jungkook and passing the phone to Yoongi and so on, each of their faces contorting to undeniable rage.Â
âKookie talk to us, what did she tell you? How did you manage to get her to open up to you?â Yoongi asks faintly, he could visibly see the distress the boy was in. He didnât want to tip him off the edge. Jungkook swallows the lump in his throat before looking up and begins to explain to them how you had asked about what they all do career-wise, telling them how you thanked them all for what they do and how your body language had changed as you asked him to cover up the branding when you were ready which lead you to show him and telling him how you got it. By the time he had finished, he had tears falling, Hoseok was on the phone immediately demanding his colleagues to send him any information on the demented man. They were all having internal battles with their anger. Their sadness.
âHyungsâŠs-sheâs suffered so much. I-I just know she hasnât even scratched the surface of her past. She deserved none of this. S-Sheâs too good for this world.â Jungkook sniffles, snuggling into Jimin as the older man tugs him into a hug, cradling the younger boy close and kissing the top of his head.
âSheâs safe now baby, she will suffer no more. You did good. We are proud of you for how you handled it, and how you got her to open up without pushing her. It shows us how comfortable sheâs getting. She felt safe to tell you. You took good care of her, well done Koo.â Taehyung reassures, snuggling into the other side of the younger boy, rubbing his arm encouragingly. It was no secret between them all that Jungkook was the most sensitive to Hybrid cruelty, having witnessed it at a young age, he understands how severe how bad it can get. He had such a big heart and they do everything they can to protect it.
âHeâs right, you did great, Hoseok is going to find out everything he can on the bastard and bring him down with Taehyung, he isnât going to get away with it, Y/N will get the justice she deserves at last. His karma is coming and itâs us. He will suffer for what heâs done.â Yoongi sneers, he could happily track him down right now and punish him for everything heâs done. He couldnât wait to watch the twisted crook pay for his crimes. They were a step closer to finding him. A step closer to you finally having justice, and peace of mind that your trauma wasnât for nothing.Â
You were their little leopard and theyâd do anything for you.

Activists in a way. But you frown when you realize something. He had left himself out. He told you everything about his partners but not about himself.
âWellâŠwhat about you Jungkook? What do you do?â You ask as he sits in front of you and sighs giving you a small smile, taking your hands into his, looking down at them. Was he uncomfortable about talking about his career?Â
âMineâsâŠa bit more boring than theirs, Sweet girl. I donât wanna bore you.â He says looking back up to you but you shake your head at him with a pout.
âNothing about you is boring Jungkookie.â You murmur, a blush coming to your cheeks when you realize what you had said out loud, purring when Jungkook pecks your forehead and smiles at you in appreciation.
âThank you, baby, that was kind of you. IâmâŠa hybrid tattoo artist. Yeah I know it's not as extravagant as the others huh? I was just an average tattoo artist just tattooing humans but when I worked in a studio we had so many hybridâs coming in wanting tattoos and my boss would justâŠturn them away. But they werenât coming for a tattoo for the fun of it. They were coming in to cover up something that reminded them of their past. Like a bad scar or tattoo of their number, they were given from fight rings or even brandings. I felt like it was unfair, they just wanted a fresh start and they werenât getting a chance to do that so I left and I opened my own studio for Hybrids. I donât charge them anything so I donât really get much profit, I get some humans from time to time and they pay because they want to keep my business running but I refuse to charge a Hybrid for wanting to cover up something traumatic to them. I know itâs not much but if it makes a difference for them to live a happier life, to show them that there are humans that care for them then Iâm happy and hopefully Iâve somewhat of a difference.â He murmurs and your heart swells. His job was anything but boring, he had a job that would make a massive impact on a hybrid's life.Â
âThatâsâŠthe kindest thing Iâve ever heard Jungkookie. What all of you do. Itâs amazing, Iâve never met anyone who cares so much about us, itâs special and I think I speak for all hybrids when I say this. Thank you. For being our voiceâŠfor being the ones to protect us and make us feelâŠnormal. You should be proud of what you do. I may not be the greatest at expressing my emotions or understanding the simplest of things but if it werenât for you guys. I would have had no future, I wouldnât be able to have my eyes opened to the good in the world. Iâm very very grateful and I promise to work hard on my healing and become a person you can be proud of.â You say shyly looking down, feeling your heart race.
Jungkook stared at you with a pout on his lips, squeezing your hands and taking a deep breath in. It was taking everything in him to not cry. It was the first time you had openly spoken about how you were comfortable living with them and how grateful you were for everything that they do for you. The first time he had heard someone really thank him and the boys for what they do. It only motivated him more. To give you a better life. To give hybrids around the world a better life.Â

The adjustments were difficult. You just couldnât comprehend the respect and care you were being given by these seven men. It had only been a week or two but it was so overwhelming. It felt too good to be true. It felt like if you turned a corner something bad would happen. That this was just a ruse to get you to trust them before it all went back to how you were used to. You didnât mean to think so ill of them but you couldnât help it, your relationship with humans from the beginning of your life had been nothing but torture. They knew that too which is why you were grateful for the patience and space they gave you, doing their absolute best to gain your trust and when they were to finally gain it, they would absolutely treasure it and do their absolute best to never break it.
Youâve never felt so much appreciation for seven humans ever. They never pushed you to tell them anything, never force you to do anything you were uncomfortable doing, and always made sure they werenât pushing any of your boundaries. And at least one of them was always there with you if your anxiety got bad or if you have a nightmare. You were never left to deal with it on your own. Some days were better than others and today unfortunately wasnât a good one.Â
âHey, Kitty, how are you doing? On a scale from 1 to 10, 1 being not very good and 10 being feeling great.â Taehyung says softly as he peers into the room you had now claimed and pouts seeing you curled up on the bed silently staring out the window. They had come up with a system best suited for you. They knew it was hard for you to express how you were feeling and communicate your emotions, you had gone years not being allowed to and you had years of trauma built up so they used scales to get an idea of how you were feeling and then theyâd know where to go from there. Taehyung could already guess that today would be low from your body language.Â
âUhh, a-a four I g-guess? âM sorryâŠâ You say guiltily slowly turning to face him, wincing slightly from your wounds that had yet to fully heal. A look of guilt and just sheer exhaustion written all over your face making him pout and shake his head, carefully coming over and kneeling beside you.Â
âHey be careful youâre still healing. Itâs okay Kitten, youâre allowed to have bad days, itâs a part of healing mentally and physically, you have nothing to apologise for hm? Wanna tell me whatâs making you feel like this today or are you not ready yet?â He asks politely, holding his hand out for you to take not wanting to give you any physical touch unless you wanted it which today you do, placing his hand on top of your head wanting pets, a rumble coming from your chest when he scratches behind your hybrid ear a small smile appearing on his face. You need something to ground yourself and their touch and scent were so soothing and welcoming that you knew it would help you today.
âNight terror. I think thatâs w-why. I-I donât wanna talk about that though i-is that okay?â You say timidly leaning into his touch more to relax. You always felt timid around them still, you couldnât help it they were much bigger than you and their good looks definitely didnât help.Â
âOh Kitty of course thatâs okay, but just know youâre safe here, nothing will hurt you ever again okay? Now I have some ideas to get these bad thoughts away. Wait here Iâll be back!â He says with a smile before rushing away to do whatever he had planned. You carefully sit up and pout waiting for him to come back only to hear a knock on your door, Jimin peers in and gives you the smile that always makes your heart flutter.
âHey Petal. Taehyungie told us itâs not a very good day for you today? Itâs okay to have days like this, so heâs come up with an idea. Whenever you have bad days like this itâs going to be a day of self-care and love and a day where we will cheer you up how does that sound?â Jimin says sitting on the edge of the bed making you hum and nod at the thought. It definitely sounded like something you needed right now.
âGreat Iâm glad you like the sound of it, now will you come with me for the first part of your day?â He asks tilting his head at you and holding his hand out for you which you take, he carefully helps you up and guides you into the bathroom where Taehyung sat on the floor in front of the bathtub watching it fill up and turns and smiles at you.Â
âHey Kitten we thought a nice bath will help relax you first hm? Here we have these bath bombs they make your bath smell all nice and the water change colour, take a pick and weâll put one in.â Taehyung smiles holding out a basket to you. You hesitate before taking it from him and looking down at them tilting your head as you look at them, your nose twitching from the overwhelming smells of all the bath bombs making you let out a little sneeze, they giggle and stare at you as you pick them up one by one and sniffing them until you find the one you like the best and hold it out to Taehyung.
âYou have a sensitive nose like Jungkookie huh? This is his favourite scent too. Nice and subtle. Come here watch this.â Taehyung chuckles and holds the bath bomb above the water as you kneel beside him curiously, eyes widening in awe as he drops the ball into the bath full of water and it immediately begins to fizz. They both laugh at the shock and curiosity on your face as you watch it dissolve but it made their hearts feel heavy too. The thought that you never even got to experience the little things in life. That everything was new to you and a learning curve. They all sworn to themselves that you will get to experience only the best things in life even if it is just a bath bomb in water.
âItâs so prettyâŠâ You murmur in awe watching the limpid water change to a shimmery purple, slowly placing your hand in the water and moving it around to watch the glistening water swirl and make patterns, letting out a noise of surprise when you touch the dissolving ball and it lightly tickles your had from the fizzing.
âNot as pretty as you Angel. Now come on letâs get you in the bath and Iâll give you nice head scrubs hm?â Jimin says gently, making your face flush and look away from him as he takes the hair tie out of your hair to let it cascade down your back.
âJiminie gives the best head scrubs when it comes to washing hair.â Taehyung grins, standing up, ruffling Jiminâs hair making huff and nudge him before he smiles at you and nods in agreement as you murmur a small âokayâ before standing up and looking at them with hesitation wanting them to turn around so you could undress from your clothes without eyes on yours You didnât want them to see you so exposed. You had so many scars too, you wanted to hide as much as possible.
âDonât worry Y/N Iâm leaving now, I have to plan the rest of your day out, Jiminie will turn around for you.â Taehyung coos before exiting the bathroom and Jimin turns his back to you. You quickly strip yourself from the clothes which were Jiminâs since you had yet to get your own and climb into the tub, sighing in contentment as the warm water relaxes your tense muscles, pulling your legs to your chest so you felt less exposed and shyly whisper out,
âY-You can turn around nowâŠâ
Jimin gives you a reassuring grin before kneeling again in front of the bath and rolls his sleeves up and picks up the jug beside him and scoops up some of the water and places his other hand on the back of your neck to support it.
âLean your head back for me petal and close your eyes so I can wet your hair. Itâs okay Iâve got you, Iâm not going to look anywhere you donât want me to. Relax youâre safe.â He coos seeing the hesitation in your eyes. All you needed was a bit of encouragement, and reassurance that you were in a very safe environment.Â
You slowly lean your head back and close your eyes, humming to yourself when the warm water is poured over your hair a small smile on your lips noticing how careful he was around your hybrid ears knowing they couldnât get a lot of water in them otherwise youâd get an ear infection from the moisture in them. You jump feeling his fingers suddenly in your hair and begin to gently massage at your scalp to lather up the shampoo he had now put in your hair, hearing him chuckle as you begin to purr from the sensation. Ever since they began to give you affection you couldnât get enough of it. After all, you had many years of no affection to catch up on. And they were more than willing to give you it whenever you liked.
âThere we go, Angel. All done.â Jimin says making your eyes snap open as he pulls his hands away and begins to dry his hands on the towel, an amused grin on his face seeing the small pout on your lips. You had spaced out so quickly that you hadnât even realised that he had washed out the shampoo and conditioned your hair. It startled you at the effect they all had on you. In such a short period of time, you had grown to enjoy their presence, the nicknames they had all given you, and their comforting scents and touches. You had never felt safer, but there was always a nagging voice in the back of your head to not be so trusting of them already, that theyâll turn against you once they have your trust. You couldnât stop it so all you could do was try to ignore it but sometimes it was hard.
âThank you, Jimin.â You say politely before looking at your arms and peering at your thighs, throat tightening at the sight of all your scars. They werenât very noticeable usually but every time you bathed they were always more prominent and it made you feel ill. No matter how much you will recover mentally, you will always still have to live with the physical memories of them. You will never be able to forget that chapter of your story no matter how many more chapters you make.Â
âHey, Angel look at me not them. Talk to me about whatâs going on in that pretty head of yours hm? Your thoughts are allowed to be out in the open here. You wonât be punished or anything like that. Iâm here to listen and help get rid of those thoughts. Weâre here to listen and get rid of them.â Jimin coos stroking your hair for comfort. You turn to look at him with tears in your eyes, your voice stuck in your throat making him pout and coo at you.
âT-Theyâre ugly. T-The s-scars. T-They make m-me ugly. I-Iâll never be able to get rid of them. Y-You all m-must think I-Iâm disgusting. W-Why did you save m-me Jimin? I-Iâm a lost cause. Y-You never should have found me that night.â You sniffle and he immediately shakes his head at you and cups your face in his hands and his thumbs wipe away the tears that slip down your cheeks.Â
âPetal no, youâre perfect the way you are. So perfect. You may have scars but they make you who you are. These scars are your battle scars. They each may hold a dark story, yes but every single one shows everyone that you, my little leopard are a survivor. A warrior. A warrior is not built of ease but suffering, and this is why they chose to build themselves to ease suffering and I know that you are capable of doing so. You are the toughest person I know. Look at you, Angel! Youâre showing that youâre willing to heal and find who you really are. You are doing so well and all of us could not be any more proud of you. You will overcome this. Itâs not going to be an easy process, healing never is but remember you are not alone anymore Y/N. You have me, Taehyung, Jungkook, the hyungs. We are all here to hold your hand through this. With time all this will be a distant memory, you are anything but a lost cause. We saved you because we believe everyone deserves a second chance at life. Especially you Petal. We found you that that night because of fate. It wasnât your time. We were meant to find you that night and Iâm so glad we did because believe it or not you are the best thing to happen to us in a long time and Iâll be damned if we let this fucked up system fail you again.â He says seriously, his eyes not once breaking contact with yours, letting a smile fall on his face as you stare at him with adoration. No one has ever told you anything like that before. It warmed your heart. You meant something to someone. Not just one person but seven.
âT-That was really refreshing to hear. T-Thank you, Jiminie. I appreciate your words.â You sniffle leaning into his hands, squeaking as he places a kiss on your forehead making him laugh and throw his head back finding how shy you were adorable before pouting as you hide your face in your hands.
âNooo, Angel donât hide your pretty face from me!â
âNo! Stop it youâre making me all flustered you meanie!â
â
âThere she is! Good morning Doll! For a minute there I thought Jimin had kept you all to himself! Here come eat breakfast, I made some chocolate chip pancakes for you!â Seokjin says excitedly as he plates you some up as you sit at the table and look around frowning when you only notice Jungkook, Jimin and Taehyung at the table. After your bath Jimin had brushed your hair for you and dried it before plaiting it for you and leaving you to dress and come down when you were ready.
âOh you must be wondering where the others are, they had to go to work, theyâll be back later tonight, so itâs just us today.â Jungkook smiles looking at his plate and bursting out laughing and before you know it so were Jimin and Taehyung. You look down confused at what they were laughing at, your head tilting to the side. What was this meant to be?
âYeah, so that means you and I are stuck with these brats. Yah! What are you laughing at!â Seokjin exclaims as he sits down glaring at the boys who were almost falling off their chairs from laughing so much.
âWhat are these meant to be?! They look so horrified!â Jungkook cackles as Jin huffs and crosses his arms and pouts at the three youngests for teasing his attempt of pancake art. You let out a little giggle, covering your mouth as Jin looks at you with an even bigger pout.
âTheyâre meant to be leopards. The chocolate chips were meant to be like a leopard print but they melted too quicklyâŠâ He murmurs making them laugh even louder but you stare at them, your heart swelling at the small thing he did to cheer you up, the appreciation he shows to your animal counterpart. You felt so lucky to have these seven men in your life. Jimin may be right. Fate brought you guys together.
âWell, Seokjin I think they look great. I really appreciate it.â You say quietly, flushing as he grins at you and instinctively winks at you. It was a habit he had that you picked up on. He then looks back at the boys and glares at them again and points at them.
âHey! See at least someone appreciates my efforts you brats! And buttercup please call me Jin, no need for formalities here. Now brats eat your food before I take them back and make you all eat cereal!â He threatens before beginning to eat his own pancakes. You smile watching them try to defend themselves and begin to eat your own, only managing to eat one and a half before feeling full. Breaking your old eating habits was a challenge but slowly and surely you were improving.
âNow that breakfast is finished, we were wondering if you would like some fresh air buttercup? You could use it and we definitely need to get you your own clothes, Iâm sure youâd like to have your own right?â Seokjin asks and your eyes widen, feeling your heart race a little at the thought of going outside. You knew you had to eventually but it had not crossed your mind once. You were terrified. You had never really seen the outside world, always trapped in your cage in your masters or mistresses home and you were terrified that youâd see one of them. You remembered them all so clearly. It was hard not to when they had caused you so much suffering.
âW-What if I-I see my m-master? O-Or any of my old masters o-or mmistressesI-Iâve never r-really been outsideâŠâ You panic and Jin and Jungkook who sat beside you both grab your hands and rubbed reassuring circles on the skin to calm you down.
âBaby, you will not see any of them and even if you do, we will not them anywhere near you and we will come straight back home. They are not your masters and mistresses. You are safe now and we will protect you hm? The world is a big scary place I know, especially when youâve never seen it but when you put that aside it has a beautiful side to it and we want you to see that sweet girl. We want you to finally be able to live not just survive. As soon as you feel like itâs too much we will be home straight away okay?â Jungkook reassures squeezing your hand for encouragement.
âYou are safe with us Angel. We will not leave your side. We want to spoil our little leopard, we think it is very well deserved.â Jimin coos from across from you. You look at them all, their faces all serious meaning they meant every word. These men would not let anything happen to you and that was all you needed to hear.
âNo promises on that one Kitten.â
âO-Okay but! N-No spoiling. You donât need to do that. A few things is enoughâŠâ
â
âWoahâŠâ You breathe out as you look around the mall they had brought you to, eyes wide in awe and curiosity as you take it all in. You had never seen anything like it. It was so enormous. It was all-natural light, the roof made out of glass, a shop everywhere you looked. You didnât even know where to begin. You felt so small in this big world already.
âAre you okay so far buttercup? Take your time, I know this must all be a lot to take in.â Jin reassures rubbing your back as he watches your eyes dart all around the youngest three watching in amusement at your shock. It was adorable.
âI-I donât know where to beginâŠt-thereâs so many s-shops andâŠand I canât really read.â You murmur almost ashamed that you couldnât read. You felt so illiterate and out of place with them. They were all dressed well compared to you who wore Jiminâs clothes that just about fit you and the fact that you knew they were very intelligent men just made you feel ashamed despite knowing itâs not your fault that you couldnât read. You were never allowed to.
âHey thatâs okay donât worry baby, weâll guide you and weâll get you some books to start to learn how to read how does that sound? Namjoonie hyung will be more than happy to teach you.â Jungkook coos, slipping his hand into yours and begins to guide you into a shop.
âThis shop is for clothes, hybrid ones. It just means theyâre modified for your pretty tail so itâs not squashed and you can show it freely and proudly okay?â Jimin says and begins to look around excitedly. They all seemed more excited than you, already seeing clothes they wanted you to try on.
âWill you guys help me? I-I donât know what I like yetâŠâ You ask gingerly, playing with your fingers, looking at them all pleadingly. You had no idea what kind of style you liked or suited. You never got to pick your own clothes and never got to wear anything colourful or pretty. You were just given plain old rags.
âOf course, weâll help you come on letâs look around and weâll pick things out and you point at anything you like okay, doll?â Seokjin says tenderly, taking your hand and begins guiding you around the shop, the other three looking around to find you something you may like. After a while of picking things you like and the boys picking out clothes and even shoes for you, they ushered you into a changing room to try on the things you had finally chosen to try and hopefully buy. A few dresses, tops and pants had been a no from you when you tried them on, not liking how they looked on you despite the boys telling you how pretty you looked in them but understood. If it didnât feel like you then they couldnât make you get them. They wanted you to be confident in what you wore not get them just because they liked them. You had finally chosen what you wanted to get and what you didnât and went to pay before hesitantly looking at them after paying and murmuring,
âA-Am I okay to go change into something you guys got me?â
âOf course, you can, sweet girl, if that makes you feel more comfortable, here take the bag so you can choose what youâd like to wear, come on weâll wait right outside the changing room for you.â Jungkook coos before handing you the bag full of clothes and guiding you back to the changing rooms. Once you were in you quickly route through the bag and find the blue collared shirt Jungkook had picked out for you and the white plaited skirt you had picked and quickly change into them, smiling at yourself in the mirror and grabbing the white silk bandana headband Jimin had got you and put on your head, unplaiting your hair leaving it down and wavy and finally changing into the white sneakers and then stuffing the worn clothes into the bag before taking a deep breath and taking one final glance in the mirror, happy with the way you looked. For the first time in a long time, you felt pretty. You exit the changing room and the boys stare in awe at you. They had already thought you were pretty but seeing you in your own style and even having some confidence made them think you were even prettier and they didnât even think it was possible.Â
âYou look so pretty, Angel! It definitely suits you!â Jimin giggles and the boys chorus in agreement with him making your cheeks flush and look down shyly, whispering a thank you to them.
âHere let me take that bag for you, Kitten, letâs go look in more shops! We canât not spoil you now!â Taehyung says excitedly and begins to enthusiastically pull you out of the shop, ignoring your protests and whines, the others laughing as they follow. For the next hour or two you all entered so many shops, the boys no longer holding back on buying you things. If this is how life was going to be with them, then you didnât want it any other way. They made you happy. Made you forget all about the terrible past you had.
âOkay we have one more shop to go to and then weâll make our way home and I think tonight we should takeout. You have to try pizza buttercup.â Seokjin proclaims as you tilt your head in confusion.Â
âWhatâs pizza?â You ask slightly confused and they gasp dramatically, holding a hand to their chests in fake hurt making you giggle as you walk into the next shop not realising where you were heading into.
âOnly one of the best foods to ever exist! Youâre gonna love it!â Jungkook exclaims before holding your hand and pouting seeing the frown on your face seeing the shop you were in. A hybrid shop. Where you could buy anything you needed for any type of hybrid. But that also meant a collar. You hated collars. You were always made to wear a shock one. One foot out of line and your old owners would electrocute you.
âHey, we know, we donât want to get you one either but if you want to come out with us again you have to wear one otherwise any hybrid control that may see you might think you arenât ours. You do not have to wear this at home. This is just for your safety outside the house okay? Weâll even let you pick your own one.â Jimin reassures making you nod hesitantly and look at all the selections you had. You look at them all before one catches your eye, a soft baby blue collar, it looked silky and to you, it looked more like a necklace, it would definitely make you feel better if you thought of it like that.
âThat one. It looks more like a necklace. I donât want any of the others. T-They look like they hurt. My old one hurt me a lot.â You whisper timidly as you point at the one you like, the boys frowning at your confession. It was the first hint they had gotten to your past and they didnât need to be a genius to know what collar you had and just the thought of you being made to wear a shock collar fumed them.
âOh sweet girl, itâs okay, you will never have to wear anything like that again. If this is the one you want then you will get that one okay?â Jungkook says, scratching behind your ear making you purr and nod.
âIs there anything in here that you see that you may need?â Seokjin asks softly, watching as you look around and pause when you notice a familiar bottle your previous owners constantly held in front of you and had you take. You may not be able to read but you knew what it was. You had totally forgotten about them and you were unsure if you needed them but you decided to pick them up to show them to see if they needed you to get it, their eyes widen immediately and quickly shake their heads, Taehyung gently putting it back down and holding your hands in his as they circle you, frowning their hearts sinking at the thought of you being made to take these tablets. You were confused at their horror. Were you not supposed to take them?
âDoll, no, you canât have those, they can cause serious harm to your body. They can send it all out of balance, you will not be taking these okay? Not in our household.â Jin says sternly but as softly as he could. He was raging. How long had you been on them?
âButâŠall my other owners made me take them s-so I thought I needed them. A-Are heat suppressants bad?â You ask worriedly and they look at you in shock. You thought it was normal but it wasnât.
âYes, Angel, they are. They have too many bad chemicals and side effects. They shouldnât even be allowed to be bought. You have to come off these okay? Itâs unnatural for you.â Jimin says rubbing your back, your cheeks flushing, you didnât want to have a heat in front of them, you had been conditioned to believe they were embarrassing and disgusting.
âB-But i-itâs embarrassing. I-I donât want you to see me in heat. T-Theyâre grossâŠâ You whisper and Taehyung shakes his head at you with a frown on his face, his deep voice now dropping lower making you shudder as he speaks,
âKitten. Heats are anything but embarrassing and gross. They are natural. You have nothing to be embarrassed about. We will never judge you for something that is completely natural for you and out of your control. Itâs part of your animal counterpart you should embrace it. Youâre in a safe environment to have them okay?â
You nod slowly and whisper an apology, feeling close to tears, you had made them angry. You could smell the anger coming off them and it intimidated you. You couldnât bare seeing them angry, especially because you thought they were mad at you. But you couldnât be anymore wrong. They were mad at how badly the hybrid protection system had failed you. Something they had dedicated their lives to, something they were trying to improve. They were mad at themselves for letting your torture and suffering go on for so long, completely under the radar. They were mad at the people who had caused you so much trauma and pain. They were never gonna allow it to happen again.
âWhy are you apologizing Buttercup? You donât need to apologize for anything, itâs not your fault. Itâs those horrible peopleâs fault. We are not mad at you, weâre mad at them. I have to ask this Y/N butâŠwhen was your last heat?â Jin asks worriedly, his doctor instincts kicking in.
âI-I donât knowâŠI was made to have the pills everyday, there was one time where I wasnât given them for a week cause I had been left alone all week so no one gave me any so I ended up having one but that might of been aboutâŠthree maybe four years agoâŠâ You admit and Jinâ heart sinks. That was too long. He had to check your health properly. To make sure that you were really okay.
âOkay doll, I might have to do a health check on you tomorrow, just to make sure youâre alright but for now, letâs buy this collar and go home okay?â Jin says taking your hand as you nod hesitantly and begin to walk to the cashier. You were so relieved to have people who really care about your wellbeing and just you as a person. They didnât view as a pet,or an animal. They saw you as a human. A person with feelings and a life.Â
â
You had gotten home a few hours ago and had ordered pizza for dinner and to say the least, Jungkook was right. It was one of the best things you had ever eaten. You all were now sat in the living room watching a film, waiting for the three men who had to work to come home. Your ears twitch when you hear the car pull up in the driveway and you then hear the three mens voices getting closer to the house, your tail beginning to sway side to side, happy to be able to see them again.Â
âWeâre home!â Namjoon calls out, walking into the living room, Hoseok and Yoongi behind him, all three of them smiling when they see us all curled up on the sofas, the five of us peering up to them with a smile back.
âHi loves, did you have a good day at work?â Seokjin smiles watching as they sit down and sigh in relief to finally be home, a purr leaving your lips as Hoseok rubs the tip of your ear making a shiver run down your spine.
âIt was alright, rushed off our feet today. I see that little cub has gotten a pretty new outfit, wanna show us properly? Give us a twirl.â Yoongi grins watching as you blush and stand up before spinning around timidly, Yoongi and Namjoon chuckling at how shy you were and Hoseok cooing, a bright smile on his face despite being so tired.
âDoesnât she look so pretty hyungs? Kitten was having a bad day today so we had a self care day today and took her out for the first time to spoil her. Weâre so proud of her for being able to go out and see the city.â Taehyung praises as you sit down again and try and cover your face in embarrassment.
âSheâs the prettiest girl I know. Iâm sorry to hear you were having a bad day princess, I hope you feel much better now, Iâm proud of you for going outside I know that must have been a big step for you but just know next time, itâs our turn to treat you okay?â Namjoon smiles as you whine and shake your head. You already felt like you had so much, you couldnât possibly need anymore.Â
âThe more you deny us to treat you,sweetpea, the more weâre gonna get you. You deserve all the best things in life.â Hoseok teases making you huff knowing you werenât going to win the fight. They enjoyed watching your personality slowly come to light. They knew when you were finally past this hard time, youâd be the brightest and sassiest person.Â
âHey doll, why donât you go shower and get some of your new pyjamas on and then weâll all watch another movie before bed?â Seokjin suggests, kissing your head as you agree before making your way upstairs. They wait silently until they hear the shower running, looking at each other before all at once, they say,
âWe need to talk.â

CHAPTER 1
Okay so mc at the beginning is still new to styling herself and having her own clothes, still slightly insecure and self-conscious of her body but she begins to quickly realize that she likes soft fabrics, like cotton, and silk satin. You get the gist. She hates harsh fabrics on her skin due to her and the boys figuring out that she has sensitive skin so anything that makes her itch or uncomfortable is immediately put back or returned if bought online.
Also realizes that she likes to wear pastel and bright colors, something she was never really privileged to wear at all growing up. She heavily prefers wearing flowy and loose things and enjoyed the much freedom she had and how girly she looked. So yes skirts and dresses and oversized tees were her best friend. Wearing them made her feel her best and the most confident she ever has been. She felt uncomfortable in pants and trousers; shorts too, but if really had to wear them she would, especially in winter since the boys panic not wanting her to get cold or ill, always seeming to be forgetting that the Leopard hybrid runs a little hotter than average human and other hybrids.
She soon discovers that baby blue is her favorite color, liking how soft and gentle it looked and how well it looks on her. The color is very much peaceful and calming for her. Tranquility. The boys were quick to discover this and quickly got her loads of baby blue clothing items even going as far as getting blankets in baby blue and getting themselves baby blue shirts and making sure they smelt like them put in her nest whenever she wanted to nest.
But back to the point, she was very much a soft feminine type of girl, almost cottage-core style. The boys found it adorable and the perfect style for her. It expressed the gentle and loving personality she will grow to have.

However, the more she grows into herself, the insecurities and self-consciousness are no longer there, and as her personality grows, so does her style. Not totally. She just feels like she needed to explore more styles. Be a bit more adventurous. She gets a bit into her dark feminine side she never realized she had. The confidence she radiates in these clothes was immaculate.
She does tend to stick to her soft fem style the majority of the time but if she was in the mood to feel empowered and strong then she'll dress in her monochrome clothes in the depths of her wardrobe. These clothes usually come out when she wants to mess with the boys or on a day when she needs to feel really confident if her mental health is low, it somehow helps her boost it back up.
Usually, she messes with the boys in the outfits when she's going into heat knowing how absolutely feral they go seeing her in them, the clothes being slightly tighter than her usual style, accentuating her curves, that she barely shows off, in all the right places. The boys are practically on their knees for her by the end of the day. It made the usually shy and reserved girl feel powerful. She gets almost a bit cocky.
But despite the confidence and empowerment she gets in these, it's not her everyday style, just occasional days here and there when she could do with the extra boost, and when they do come out the boys make the absolute most of it but they love her no matter what she's wearing. She could wear a trash bag and they'd think she's still stunning. Afterall, she was their Little Leopard.

hey cait, just wanted to let you know that iâm absolutely in love with little leopard. the last chapter was so cute seeing her go out with the boys and them just spoiling her with everything she needs and more cause our little leopard deserves the bestđ„°đ„°đ„°im excited to see how their relationship will continue to grow and how much love the boys are going to shower her inđ„čđ„čđ„č.
ALSOâđŸa moodboard for y/nâs style would be great!! she sounded so cute in the last chapter when you described her in her new clothes and i would love to have a visualđ„°đ„° thank you for sharing your writing with us, youâre AMAZINGGGGG
Hey bubs! Aww I am really loving writing Little Leopard! The last chapter was a breakthrough for her development and it gets better from here. There may be a few bumps in the road (Not going to spoil), but I can't wait for everyone to see what's in store for the future chapters! She deserves the absolute best! She's just a little kitten in a big cat form! But we're going to see a stronger and confident side to her eventually but all she wants is love, affection and attention which the boys are more than happy to give her! They can't help but spoil her wanting to give her everything she didn't have despite her complaints and protests, (she secretly loves it but not that she'll admit it to them). I can't wait for you guys to see just how strong their relationship will be and to see this character's personality and happiness blossom. They are dying to shower their leopard with more love than they already are, they just being paitent knowing that she still needs some space đ„ș
I'm glad you like the idea of the moodboard! Currently working on it as we speak, she's so adorable and her style definitely embodies it more! However she will get more confident with expressing herself through fashion and will begin to step out of comfort zones to test other styles out but she will stick mostly to her original style as it's what she feels the best in. I'm glad to be sharing my writing with you all, you're all such great supporters and readers, I couldn't be happier, thank you lovely, you're amazing too đđ„°
