The air was cold and bitter. The wind howled and cooed. The sky poured out white snowflakes that was sugary and powdered onto the ground. A little girl ran around the powdery snow, her cheeks slowly turning pink from the cold. She was wearing a purple scarf around her neck and a heavy black jacket. Her little boots were purple as well and her gloves were white.

"Oh Y/n! Baby not so far." A soothing voice called. The little girl turned her head and grinned widely. Her eyes twinkling just like the snow below her.

"I know mommy!" The girl grinned, then continue to run in the snow. Her eyes lighting up seeing other children doing the same. But she cocked her head towards the side, a little bemused. A smaller boy was holding an older girls hand, his steps wobbly while the little girl proudly held his hand and helped him.

"Mommy?"

She heard a little hum come from behind her. She then turned her head to face her lovely mother. Her mother was right behind her, in a red long coat with a creamy brown hat. A white scarf wrapped around her neck as she tucked her hands into her pockets. The little girl pointed towards the small group of children.

"Can I have baby brother?" Y/n asked. Her mother stiffen and looked towards the small group of children. Especially towards the little girl and the little boy holding hands. She looked stunned at her question.

"Oh sweetheart, it's not that easy. Besides you know how much your father would take advantage of it." Her mother explained and picked up her child. Y/n frowned and laid her chin onto her shoulder.

"But mommy I want someone to play with, papa never lets me play with other kids. And he always makes you work too. Please mommy I want a baby brother. I wanna be a noona." Y/n sniffles, hiding her face into her mother's neck. Her mother combed her fingers through her hair with a sigh.

"I'm sorry baby, that's something mommy can't give." Her mother soothed, her eyes wondering around the white snow. Her eyes then locked onto a hybrid not too far from her, who was happily playing with her owner. An idea suddenly sparked inside her head.

🐺🐺🐺🐺

"Papa! We're home!" Y/n shouted but her mother quickly shushed her.

"Baby we talked about this, you must be quiet when fathers working." Her mother whispered and helped the little girl take off her scarf. Y/n frowned and nodded, taking off her black coat. Her mother then hanged up both hers and Y/n's onto the hook, then placed their boots on the shoe rack.

The large black rooms were quiet as usually. The room was dull and had no other color than black and grey. Sometimes only splashes of gold was around. Even the furniture was grey and dull.

"Yes? Of course sir, I'll be there." Her mother's tone turned cold in a second her phone rang. Then she hanged up and looked towards her daughter. She gave her a kind smile.

"I'm sorry baby, but mommy has work father wants to do. So just stay in your room and don't leave until I come home, alright?" Y/n nodded and hugged her mother's tummy, hiding her small face inside her tummy.

"Good girl. Mommy loves you."

"And me loves you too mommy." Y/n mumbled, trying to collect all the warmth she could get. Her mother combed her hair before gently pulling her away.

"Bye my darling." Her mother placed a kiss on her forehead and hastily put her coat and boots back on. Y/n pouted but waved goodbye towards her mother. Watching her mother close the door and shutting it.

"Mommy always works and papa doesn't like me. I want a baby brother but mommy is scared and daddy would be even scarier." Y/n sighed, walking up towards her room. She hopped on the wooden steps before starting to skip towards her room. But just as she was about to open her door, a loud wail startled her.

Y/n jumped and looked towards where the stairs were at. The small girl started to crawl and look down the stairs. The wails grew louder and a loud bang was heard. Instantly the wails grew quiet.

"Oh shut it! You mangy cat! Geez!" A voice yelled. Y/n perked over to see what the commotion was all about. Her body stiffen seeing two large men holding a large silver crate with two hybrids inside. A mother and it's child. Of course her father standing there with a blank look, his arms crossed over his chest.

"Wow. Beauties. Lions right?" She heard her father speak. The men nodded and carefully set down the crate.

"Yeah. A lioness and her cub. The male, let's just say didn't make it." One of them said. Y/n felt like throwing up, by now she knew what that meant.

"Shame. A male would've sold more. But since the female is young she'll sell just as much." Her father clicked his tongue but grinned seeing the two frighten hybrids.

"And the kid?"

"Kill it."

Her fathers cold words left Y/n shock. Her eyes widening at his statement. The poor mother in the crate wailed and held her child even closer towards her chest.

"No! You will not touch my baby!!" The lioness weep.

"Oh shut up and give it to us!" One of the men demanded. The other man opened the crate and started to reach out towards the cub but the lioness growled and hissed. She pushed herself more towards the end of the crate to avoid their grabby hands. She felt something watching her, and looked above, seeing a little girl wide with horror.

"My precious baby run up towards the stairs there's a girl there." The mother whispered. Her child shook his head but the mother urged him to his safety. As the men got closer, the little boy took this opportunity and ran out.

"It got out!"

"Well get then you fools! I don't need my wife and kid to find it!" Her father yelled. Y/n's eyes widen and as she hastily got up and ran towards her room. One of the many rules of the house was to never be seen by her fathers clients. Neither her nor her mother were to be welcomed.

But before she could, she saw the small cub ran towards her and latched onto her. She stiffen completely forgetting the situation. The boy shook and trembled against her. But her moment was ruined hearing footsteps run up the stairs. Y/n scrambled to open the door and pushed the kid inside it. She scrambled inside and locked the door.

Immediately she lift up the small boy and ran towards her secret hiding spot. She opened the closet and lightly moved everything to reveal a small door. Y/n set the little boy down and hastily opened the door with a key that was around her neck.

"Alright, hurry in there. It's okay I'll be right behind you." Y/n urged. The small boy nodded and shakily crawled through the door. Y/n scrambled to close the closet and place everything back into it's original place. Then Y/n trailed behind him, her heart beating fast when she heard the other men slamming on her door. She hastily locked the door before following the small boy.

Inside the small room was filled with pillows and books. The whole room was pink and white, with fairy lights lighting up the room. A small shelf with books and crayons. And a small fridge with food inside. Stuff animals scattered among the floor, and it appeared the little boy held onto one tightly in fear.

"Shh it's alright. They won't find us in here. Papa doesn't even know about this place, we'll be fine." Y/n encouraged, crawling towards the boy. The boy trembled and shook, his ears down onto his head. His tail wrapped around his leg in fear. Y/n sat next to him, and slowly put her arms around him pulling him into an embrace. The boy curled up to her, hiding his face into her neck.

"They're gonna k-kill me." The boy hiccup, now tears rushing down his face.

"And they took daddy away and mommy. I-I'm scared." The boy whimpered, crying more. Y/n pet his hair, squeezing him.

"It's gonna be okay. Hey how about this, why don't you stay with me?" Y/n asked. The boy looked up with his golden eyes. Now Y/n was finally able to get a good look on the boy. He had honey tone skin, with golden eyes. His hair was messy and golden brown. He was wearing a blue simple shirt and pants with ripped socks. His golden tail laid limp on his lap. His golden ears twitching every now and then.

"S-stay? With you?" Y/n nodded and sat up straighter with a smile.

"Yes. With me. Mommy can take care of you too, she loves kids. But doesn't want anymore cause of papa. That's why I'm the only one. Well no I'm a booboo that's why mommy and papa had to get married. And papa wasn't happy about that. Neither was mommy. But mommy is really nice just don't pay attention towards papa he's mean." Y/n explained, her hands gently wiping his tears away.

"Mommy buys toys and clothes. Oh! And she's the best cook, she'll give you cuddles and snuggles and kisses!" Y/n exclaimed. The boy yawned and lean towards her, cuddling towards her warm body as Y/n continued to ramble on.

"She's very warm. I'm sure she'll love you! I know I do already! Your so cute! And I love cats! Well your technically a lion but same family! Oh you could be my baby brother! How about that?" Y/n looked down only to see the boy curled up to her fast asleep. Y/n smiled widely before gently shifting him so she could lay down. She then pulled him back, holding him tight with a smile.

"If you don't have a name yet, I think I would name you Taehyung. Little TaeTae."
