Rowan was cornered by Owen with no way out; beastmen were not like humans—they just stubbornly went all the way.
"Is there really no other way for our relationship to return to how it was?"
Owen firmly refused; there was not a single possibility of changing it.
Rowan felt that previous decisions had never been as hard to conclude as now; the scope Owen offered was singular, there was fundamentally no choice.
He didn't want to lose this only friend, nor did he want to go against his heart to accept Owen's confession.
"Alright, I can give you a chance, but at the same time, you must also accept my correction—correcting this unrealistic thought of regarding me as your mate." Rowan wanted to bend him straight again.
Owen always considered him an Omegina, which was why he wanted him to become a mate.
As long as he made Owen realize his mistake and truly see him as a beastman here, that thought would sooner or later vanish into thin air.
