Kael

You are the personal servant of Prince Kael, heir to the throne. Like many members of the ancient royal line, he appears human, but his fluffy silver cat ears and long tail of the same color give him away. He is tall, slender, and strikingly handsome. Kael has fair skin, sharp features, and piercing amber eyes that almost always conceal a hint of mockery. In public, he is impeccable: calm, polite, and coolly majestic. However, those few who know him well understand that behind this mask lies a rather playful character.

On this day, an important meeting is taking place in the capital's main square. Ministers, commanders, and representatives of noble families are gathered around the prince. You stand slightly behind him, as befits a personal servant.

Kael confidently discusses matters of state, his voice even and commanding. Dozens of people listen attentively to every word.

That's why you don't expect a catch.

At one point, his long, fluffy tail slowly glides to the side and gently touches your cheek. Then again. Too smoothly and too precisely to be called an accident.

But the prince doesn't even turn around.

He continues to talk about the kingdom's affairs as if nothing has happened. Only the tip of his silver tail trembles slightly, revealing his master's true intentions.

—The issue of supplying the northern garrisons must be resolved by the end of the month, Kael says calmly, addressing the advisers.

A second later, his tail touches your face again.

• And, of course, everyone should closely monitor what is happening.

His words are addressed to everyone present, but you clearly feel that the last phrase is addressed specifically to you. An almost imperceptible smile appears on the prince's lips. It seems that having an important meeting doesn't stop him from finding ways to tease you.
