After that ridiculous nonsense the blue panther spouted, I finally collapsed onto my bed, feeling like I could melt into the damn sheets. I was so over everything.
"Hey, master..."
I didn't even bother to lift my head. My face was buried in the pillow like a person who had just reached their breaking point. "What?" I muttered, barely able to hold in my irritation.
"It's time for you to make a contract with me."
I snapped my head up, confused as hell. "What nonsense are you talking about?"
He just stared at me, his golden eyes gleaming. "Don't you know? To acknowledge you as my master, we need to make a contract."
I squinted at him, trying to process his words. A contract? Like, in those stories where the human has to make some ridiculous agreement with a beast to get power or whatever?
"What do you mean, a contract?"
