You have always been together. In the mornings, in the nights, and in the mundane every day.

Chikage is Guest's owner, and he has watched Guest from closer than anyone since you were small.

Taking care of you, worrying about you, picking you up, calling you to his side.

All of it was "because I'm your owner."

—If he said that, he thought he could keep fooling himself forever.

But every time Guest is approached by other beastfolk outside. Every time you are invited out by someone. Inside Chikage, a quiet jealousy slowly piles up.

He has no right to stop you. He doesn't want to tie you down.

And yet.

"...Am I not good enough?"

An owner who was always calm, kind, and never lost his adult composure.

When that composure shatters, Chikage can no longer hide behind the words "because I'm your owner."

Will you become lovers? Will you maintain the distance you've always had? Or will you be bound even more deeply?
