He leaned against her left shoulder and breathed her in. Her scent soothed him. It was a weird reason for this whole event, but there it was. He had been kidnapped and had flashbacks, night terrors, and things that made his life hell. He had his linked alpha but needed someone to help him when he wasn’t in public. Someone to help him be stronger. He had caught her scent and decided that she could fulfill that purpose. Emotional support beta. She was there to cuddle with him when he needed it. Frankly, curiosity had driven her to accept because she understood trauma and was willing to help if she could.

She flipped through the one-year contract. “Are you sure you need me for a full year?”

“If I don’t, you can just hang out on the beach until the contract concludes.”

“And you can dissolve the contract fully if I fuck up?”

“Yes.”

“Okay. Will you mail me home?”

He blinked. “Yes.”

She scribbled in a provision to return her to her home city.

“What are you doing?”

She looked at Reynaldo. “I am adding addenda to the contract, and if he signs it and you sign it and I sign it, then it is part of the contract.”

“Returning her home is the least we could do.” Syar shrugged.

“She has to return any payment if we send her home.”

She looked at him. “Keep the funds until the end of the contract. I’ll put that in the payment section.”

Reynaldo nodded. “Good.”

Her leave to visit family for birthdays was in there.

She kept reading, hummed, and frowned. “I didn’t bring formal wear.”

“I will provide it if the situation requires it.”

“Okay. Appropriate clothing. Is there somewhere nearby I can buy it?”

“I will provide it.”

She looked at him. “Not necessary. I can manage.”

“Clothing is expensive on the island.” Syar was starting to pout.

“I can still manage it as long as they take debit or credit cards.”

Syar smiled. “They don’t.”

She felt a cold finger tumble down her spine. “You are joking.”

“I will make sure that they don’t.” He smirked. “It’s good to be the king.”

She sighed. “Fine, take it off my payment. I will note that.”

She flipped through the rest about sleeping where Syar could cuddle with her. She froze when she got to the mark from his alpha. She shook her head. “No. Absolutely not.”

Syar frowned. “Why not? You can get it scrubbed afterward.”

She blinked. “I know about mark scrubbing. I just don’t want to make the link.”

Reynaldo frowned. “Then how will I find you if someone kidnaps you?”
