«But you let the wolf go!» – Triana exclaimed indignantly.
«A wolf is no tiger. Have you ever seen a wolf performing in a circus?» – Kyon waved her off.
«But the wolf was weak and battered, and I am powerful and strong-willed! Besides, I helped you throughout the tournament! I deserve freedom more than him! Let me go, please…» – The tigress pleaded, poking Kyon painfully in the back with her thin finger.
«Don't even try. You're all mine.» – Kyon claimed matter-of-factly.
«Why are you doing this to me? You hurt me... You hurt me more than I deserve.» – Deeply hurt, Triana sat in the corner of the room, her ears tucked close to her head.
He had let the wolf go without asking anything in return. Why did he treat her differently? What was wrong with her? Her heart was troubled by injustice. Supreme beasts rarely felt jealous, but now the tigress seemed to have plunged into it. It was a disgusting, unbearable feeling that made her want to cry.
