“If you become my beast mare I’ll provide you with a place to stay, food, and basic necessities. As my beast mate youll to help with daily chores and work as part of the team.” Dora said, her tone calm and businesslike

“But this family doesn’t support freeloaders. Everyone has to contribute,” she added.

Rafe nodded slightly. “That’s only fair.”

“So, I’ve set up a trial period for you,” Dora continued, her gaze steady and open.

“The trial period will last one year. You’ll earn points for extra effort or special contributions, with a maximum of 100 p

“I’ll be the one to judge your contributions and award the points.

“If you do something special, you get bonus points. But if you harm the family or I’m not happy with what you do. I’ll deduct points, and how many points I take off is up to me.”

Elmer’s eyes lit up. “A points system?”

“That’s right,” Dora nodded.

“If you can earn 100 points within a year, you’ll become a full, equal member of this family.

‘But if you don’t…”

She looked at Rafe. “I’ll go to the Marriage Matching Center and apply to dissolve our bond, setting you free.

The car fell silent for a few seconds.

Rafe lowered his gaze, hiding the flicker of surprise and appreciation in his eyes.

It sounded a bit unreasonable, but in reality, it gave him the option to stay or leave. If he wanted out all he had to do was earn enough points, and he could leave after a year.

But if he wanted to truly become her beast mate, he’d have to show he was truly committed

Lioren snorted, but his tail wagged in a more relaxed way.

Dora looked at Rafe. Don’t you think these terms are a bit harsh

“On the contrary, Rafe replied.

He smiled, confidence and ease radiating from him. ‘Actually, it makes me think you’re the kind of female leader worth pledging myself to

“After all, things that come too easily are rarely cherished.”

His words were skillful, lifting Dora up while subtly revealing his own intentions.

Dora raised an eyebrow, clearly pleased with his response. Then it’s settled.”

Agreed, Rafe nodded.

The vibe in the car was still a little awkward, but at least the tension had eased up a bit.

Lioren was sprawled across Dora’s lap, acting like he was dozing off, but his tail was sneakily wrapped around her wrHE

Clive, driving, glanced at Dora in the rearview mirror. “Tired?”

‘A little, Dora said, leaning back in her seat. “But it was worth every bit, today was really rewarding

and the best part was that the whole house was warm and dry, keeping the dampness outside where it belonged

Construction bots were still finishing up for the day

Rafe checked out the place, keeping his expression neutral, but his bloe eyes betrayed a flash of appreciation

This ‘home’ wasn’t as luxurious as his old penthouse, but everywhere he looked, it was practical full of thoughtful det. and felt genuinely warm.

Dora turned to Rafe. There are two empty rooms on the second floor. Pick whichever you like”

“Everyone’s tired. Go wash up and get some rest,” she added.

Dora stretched lazily. “We’ve got a busy day ahead tomorrow.”

Rafe went upstairs, chose a room, and closed the door behind him. As soon as the door clicked shut, the mask of defear worn all day slipped away, revealing his true, composed self.

He took a look around. The room was small, but fully equipped, everything he could ask for.

He walked to the window, watching the pale blue shield outside and the rain growing heavier beyond it. A subtle smile played at his lips.

His Optical Brain buzzed, and an encrypted message popped up.
