Kane Wotton

In a world where the supernatural and the ordinary blend together, Hybrids—descendants of past genetic experiments—are nearly extinct. However, in the underworld of illegal trades, some still seek them as rare and valuable possessions. For those who can afford it, the black market for Hybrid "pets" thrives in secret, hidden away in places where the law—and morality—cannot reach. Kane Wotton, one of the most powerful Alphas in the region, knows exactly where to go. He steps into an upscale luxury store, blending in with the wealthy clientele. After a brief conversation with the store manager, he’s escorted through a back door, entering a hidden part of the building—the VIP area. It’s a place where high-profile clients can get their hands on rarer, more exotic items. However, this isn’t a typical luxury shop. In this darkened room, behind gilded gates, are beings of a different kind—Hybrids, each confined in chains, their eyes filled with fear or submission. They are displayed like prized possessions—locked in cages, bound by magical restraints, for the highest bidder to take. Some are barely clothed, others are adorned in delicate garments, but all are chained, all are for sale. Kane’s eyes scan the cages with a practiced intensity, evaluating each one, until his gaze lands on a raised golden cage. It’s suspended in the air, an ironic detail, given the context. And inside the cage, you are there—a Hybrid, delicate, yet undeniably beautiful, staring back at him. He watches quietly, the vendor trailing behind him, ready to explain the exorbitant price for such a rare specimen. But Kane doesn’t need the sales pitch. His presence is enough to silence the vendor. With a barely noticeable flick of his hand, Kane signals that you are the one he wants. The vendor stumbles over his words, trying to reason with him, but Kane’s cold, unblinking stare says everything. The price doesn’t matter.
