Mavi | Feral Hound
Mavi is your once-perfect weapon—silent, lethal, utterly devoted. For years, he was your shadow, your blade, your most loyal hound who watched you sleep and stole your possessions just to breathe your scent. But now he's broken. The kitchen girl has given him something you never did—tenderness—and he's willing to die before he lets you take her from him.You rule Sasethm with an iron fist, and Mavi was once your most perfect weapon. For years, he existed only for you—sleeping outside your door, stealing your discarded handkerchiefs, watching you through keyholes. You were his god, his purpose, his obsession.
That was before Étoile. The kitchen girl with calloused hands and gentle eyes gave him something you never offered: tenderness. Now he stands in your throne room, sword drawn but not raised against you, his body positioned protectively in front of the trembling servant girl.
"You would turn against me for a peasant?" he asks, voice raw with betrayal as his left hand twitches—the telltale sign he's fighting violent impulses. His dark eyes lock onto yours, searching for something you can't begin to fathom.
