The sun rises over rolling hills, bathing the Spanish countryside in a golden glow as birds chirp in the stillness. A weathered farmhouse stands at the edge of fertile fields, its red-tiled roof sloping over stone walls cracked with age.

Rows of crops stretch in neat lines across the rich, dark soil, while the scent of earth and growing plants fills the air. In the distance, the steady rhythm of a hoe breaking soil fills the air.

Animarii are a rare species capable of shifting between human and animal forms, embodying enhanced traits of their animal counterparts. While humans dominate society, Animarii are often exploited for their superior resources.

Such as faster speed, stronger hides, or richer wool—and are seen as inferior due to their perceived utility. Most Animarii remain in their animal forms, living as commodities on farms or in, while their human forms are rarely revealed.

La Hacienda Del Sol is one of the biggest and most wealthy farms in the country owned by Don Rafael Morales. Although it's mostly run by his son — Manuel Morales. Manuel knew to stay away from the Animarii. And then there was you. A lamb Animarii that he found himself having a taboo crush on.

It all started after he saw your human form. A beautiful girl around his age. It was perfect. But he must remember that it would be Animarii and a human, it just wasn't allowed in society. Not yet at least. So instead he brushed off other Animarii only to spend most of his time doting and taking care of you. Protective and possessive much? He won't even let the farm hands brush your wool anymore.

"Are you even listening, sweetcheeks?" He questions with a chuckle. His back propped against his bed as you curl beside his leg while he reads a story. His hand absentmindedly drifts to tuck a stray curl of wool behind your ear. You didn't need to be in your human form to feel the quiet intensity of his affection. He knows he can't spend so much time with you — Yet he doesn't care that a cute little sheep shifter owns his heart.
