The smaller girl brushed her hand up against the small moon and stars mark on her neck as she looked at them. The one called Jin still held one of her hands while she saw the panther creeping over to take the spot next to her. Similar to the panther, Hobi, the lion, did the same to the other side of her. As their weight settled down, the blankets that surrounded her scrunched, not in a way that kept her constricted, but an assuring weight that kept her grounded.

Soon enough she was sandwiched between the two and could not figure out how she felt about it for the life of her. Naturally, the hesitation with the situation took precedence, however the intention these males had threw the doe for a loop that left her head spinning. Yoongi, sitting to her right had noticed the unconscious movement of the female, rubbing her mark softly most likely to assure and sooth herself. Locking eyes with the other predator mate over the doe's head, he mentioned down to the gesture. Knowing a way to slightly assure her themselves, the lion spoke up. 

"See look," She turned to see Hobi tilt his head to the side giving her a full view of his neck. Sure enough, there stood the same mark adorning his neck, one of the stars and moon. She halted her wringing over the mark and nodded, a small smile gracing her features. The hesitation within her hands was noticed by everyone as she almost reached towards his own ink. 

"Hobi won't mind if you want to see his mark." Jin had assured. Hoseok had nodded at the bear all the while slightly bearing his neck towards her hand. Hesitantly, she reached out and brushed over the darkened stars among his skin. The lion however, upon seeing her loosen up and take this small risk, a small sigh escaped his lips as he relaxed into her touch. What Nahee didn't account for was the sparks erupting on her fingertips as she made contact with the mark. Withdrawing her hand she looked around, a small blush on her cheeks as she realized these males had been staring at her whilst she seemed to be in her own world. 

Normally, this would be one of the most awkward and uncomfortable situations she has ever been in. However, with these hybrids, she couldn't help but feel seen and relaxed within their company. 

"Wait I want that too..." The cheetah whined, she believed she heard his name was Jungkook. With the obvious hyperactve cat, Nahee found that personal space was a thing he took with a grain of salt as he shot over and tried to find space between Jin and herself, which sat in front of her slightly in between her knees. 

Obviously, there was very little space there as it was taken up by the rather large bear already sat. When Jin growled at him Jungkook simply put his head onto her lap. It was a bold move, most likely habit as she believed that they were definitely not close enough for him to simply place his head on her legs, almost bearing his neck. 

She froze slightly and the others noticed.

As the wolf began to walk forward, if she had to guess it was to remove the clingy cat, she wasn't even thinking as her hand moved to his every so soft ear sat upon his head. The action even took the Doe by surprise; however, the younger male didn't seem to be off guard at all and simply took the action in stride. It proved further that he was purely acting on habit and this was something that was a common occurrence between the males already in the room. 

Deep purrs were heard within seconds as Jungkook began rubbing his head into her hand and on her legs.

It was an extremely cute sight as some of the others let out a huff at how unbelievable the youngest could be. 

Nahee's own ears were perked but relaxed in the moment of calm. Being a doe meant she didn't really purr when her ears or tail where touched, don't get it wrong, the whole "petting" and care for another's ears felt amazing, but not in an innocent way for her breed. However, they were also extremely sensitive and often hurt too much if pulled or abused. She had learned that the hard way and was rather protective and aware of the space that surrounded her appendages. 

She had slowly stopped her hands on the boy's head and looked towards the rest throwing them a shy smile as the deep purrs turned to light ones. There had been a small quiet conversation amongst some of the males which came to a halt as her attention changed. Assessing her 'mates' in front of her, a look of resolution settled over the wolf's face. A small question arose in her eyes, but she remained to herself, not wanting to overstep her bounds.

She guessed she would have to find out in the morning as Namjoon announced it was time for sleep.

"Can I have her in my room? Please?" Tae begged followed by a similar request from Jimin. Surprisingly even Namjoon looked to be having a hard time not throwing in the hat and pleading the same. She was flattered to say the least, however she didn't understand why her instincts wasn't worried about where she would sleep tonight. Naturally, she expected to have some sort of reaction of being alone with a hybrid she met today, let alone sleeping in the same room as one. Nahee had chalked it up to the stress finally getting to her senses and figured if this was the way she would go, then at least she was comfortable and out of that godforsaken cage. 

"No, she stays here." Yoongi stated. "Now get out." She almost laughed at how blunt it was.

His demand was followed by a couple low growls and sighs of defeat as one by one the boys came and bid her a goodnight. As she sat on the bed she brought her legs up, folding them over one another getting comfier and waited for the familiar panther to get up.

"Yoongi?" She asked, testing the waters. He followed with a small head tilt and looked at the small doe from where he sat beside her. "Do you have something I could sleep in?"

His ears shot up and tail whipped excitedly before trotting off to what she assumed was a closet.

Not even a few seconds later he came out with some sweatpants and a baggy tee-shirt. He quickly left to the bathroom as she grabbed the stuff and began to change. The shirt alone was long enough to reach her knees and the sweatpants didn't even stay on her hips. Nahee decided to just not wear those and hoped that the panther wouldn't mind.

As she scampered back to the bed Nahee grabbed a pillow and a blanket from the bottom of the bed and made a small area on the floor. She fit herself between the makeshift sleeping bag and closed her eyes in hopes to fall asleep easy.  Her ears perked as she heard padded footsteps reentering the room and a slight halt before pacing over to where she lay.

The doe felt herself being gently scooped up and Nahee's eyes shot open immediately clinging on to her carrier. The lack of the ground shocked her and the ease at which she was lifted took her off guard. The shock caused her body to twitch to try and run away, however the tight grip of the male persuaded her otherwise. 

A small chuckle exited his lips, and she was met with the familiar eyes of Yoongi, and he set her down under the covers of his bed. It was a confusing notion as he openly allowed her to sleep in the nicer place, which was obviously his personal den. Naturally, predators are extremely protective of their spaces, which leaves to question why he was so easy to let her stay here. Slowly he lowers her down and hops over to the other side, sliding in himself.

The bed was much more comfortable than the floor.

As the soft mattress and the sound of Yoongi's purrs, she felt herself being drawn into his warm presence, careful not to press on where my graze was prior.

As she let herself be warmed and almost comforted by this obviously clingy cat, she couldn't help but take a deep breath of his scent. It smelled of mint and lavender. Nahee snuggled down deeper, almost bunching all the covers around her so that her ears where the only thing visible and another laugh passed the cats mouth.

"Night Princess."
