being's
What exists owns
Being's is the possessive form of being, indicating something belongs to or is associated with a being—a living creature or entity.
The word appears most often in philosophical or fantastical contexts: a human being's capacity for reason, the creature's very being's essence was corrupted.
The double possessive can sound awkward, so writers often restructure to avoid it.
