Morning ca with the distinct sound of sothing enormous stomping toward them.
Jemil sat up with a jolt, leaves and vines still tangled around his arms from Sylfa’s "affectionate" nightti cuddling. Lyra was sprawled over his lap, mumbling sothing about "cuddling rights." Sylfa had sohow wrapped a vine around his waist like a leash in her sleep.
He was still blinking blearily when the ground trembled.
"Did anyone order an earthquake?" he asked groggily.
[Beast Signature Detected]
[Warning: Large. Horned. Extrely muscular. And... in heat.]
[Mood: Confused. Territorial. Hungry. Lonely. Aggressively flirty.]
Jemil groaned. "Let guess. This one doesn’t want to cuddle. She wants to wrestle and then eat ."
[...Yes.]
The trees parted.
And out stomped a beast that made Jemil’s soul whimper.
She was seven feet tall, with thick, muscular thighs, bronze skin, and barely-contained curves that jiggled with each thunderous step. Two polished black horns curled from her head, and her long, wild hair hung down her back in a cascade of smoky silver. Her chest was encased in what could only be described as leather scraps pretending to be armor.
And her eyes—those huge, deep red eyes—locked directly onto Jemil.
She snorted. The ground shook.
Then she charged.
"AAAAAAH—!"
Jemil ran.
It wasn’t graceful. It wasn’t brave. It was pure panic-fueled flight as he sprinted through the forest, dodging trees and low branches.
The minotaur girl barreled after him like a living siege weapon, snorting with every breath.
"Co back!" she shouted. "You sll like a mate! A sexy one!"
"That’s NOT a complint!" Jemil wheezed.

[Bonding Potential: dium-High]
[Warning: She is NOT subtle.]
"She’s going to flatten !"
[Stat Suggestion: Dodge like your chastity depends on it. Because it does.]
A vine suddenly caught his wrist and yanked him sideways—just as Grahla’s charge smashed through the spot he’d been standing, leveling two trees.
Jemil landed hard—right on top of Sylfa.
"You ran ahead without ," she said dryly.
"Because she’s the size of a barn and wants to mate into the dirt!"
Sylfa raised an eyebrow. "Mating rituals vary by species."
"This is not the ti for National Geographic!"
Lyra appeared beside them in a puff of fla. "She’s faster than she looks."
Jemil sat up. "Wait—she’s not evil, right? Just... really horny?"
"Basically," Sylfa said. "Minotaurs mate for life. If she’s fixated on you, she’ll chase you until she gets a response."
"What kind of response?"
Lyra deadpanned. "Usually a broken bed."
The trio regrouped as Grahla stomped into the clearing, looking a little confused now.
She pouted. "Why run? You’re cute. Sll strong. Mmm... lots of mana. My nose says you’re compatible."
"I’m not a breeding cow," Jemil said firmly.
She scratched her head, looking awkwardly huge and a little adorable despite her terrifying strength. "I just want soone to hug. And maybe smother with love. A little squishing. No dying."
"Define ’a little squishing.’"
"...Half-snuggle, half-power slam?"
Jemil turned to the girls. "Is it just , or are my life choices getting worse with each Chapter?"

To everyone’s surprise, Jemil didn’t run this ti.
He took a deep breath, walked toward Grahla, and raised both hands. "Okay. Let’s talk. No flattening. No sudden lung-crushing hugs. Just... talk."
Grahla blinked. Then smiled.
"Okay," she said. And imdiately hugged him anyway.
CRACK.
"AGH—OKAY TOO TIGHT TOO TIGHT—!"
[Health -10]
[Bones mildly bent. Ego severely bruised.]
[But Bond initiated.]
Later...
Jemil sat by the campfire, cradling his sore ribs while Grahla sat nearby sharpening a giant axe she called "Snugglecutter."
"I’m going to die in my sleep," he muttered.
Lyra leaned on his shoulder, smug. "At least she’s cute."
"She’s also a tank. Literally."
Sylfa sat on his other side, twining a vine around his fingers. "I don’t think she knows her own strength. But she’s loyal. And very straightforward."

Jemil groaned and lay back in the grass.
"This isn’t a team. This is a traveling harem of magical chaos beasts."
Lyra curled up beside him. "And you’re the lucky beast tar they all want."
Sylfa leaned over. "Lucky. Or dood."
Grahla walked over, plopped down beside him, and pulled him into her lap like a teddy bear. "Soft squish ti."
Jemil didn’t even resist. "Fine. Just don’t break again."
