"What do you mean I can't adopt him?! What is with these shitty rules?! I have to be mated since I am an omega?! What?!" The omega shouts at the adoption officer as the beta pup silently sits beside her.

The beta quietly watches as angry tears stream down the kind omega's face. He does not like seeing her cry, so he grabs her phone off of the desk and nervously holds it. He remembers how she taught him to unlock the phone. His little fingers tremble as he sends a red SOS emoji to the officer, indicating they need help. Since he is not able to read or write, the omega and alpha came up with a system for the beta pup to contact them.

When the detective receives the SOS from the beta pup, he tracks them and arrives at the adoption office.

"Boyoung, what is going on?" The detective's voice surprises the omega.

"They said I can't adopt him since I am an unmated omega because we are not biologically related." She explains as tears stream down her face. "I found him, and I named him! I am Yoongi's mother!" She shouts at the adoption worker.

"I apologize, but this is the inter-pack law. Our Pack Alpha has been working very hard to get it changed, but the inter-pack council is antiquated and traditional." The worker explains with a sorrowful smile.

"Th-then what am I supposed to do? He's my son." Boyoung cries as she holds Yoongi's hand. "What am I supposed to do?!" She sobs and looks at the beta pup.

"Mate me." The detective suddenly blurts out, then blushes profusely.

"If you two are registered as mates, and he adopts the pup, then you can also adopt the pup." The adoption worker explains while Boyoung stares at the alpha in shock.

"Mate, you?" Boyoung quietly asks as she stares at the alpha who has been courting her.

"Y-yes." The alpha stutters and nervously fidgets.

"The Pack Alpha has gotten a law passed that you can register as mates without having to mate officially. That would work. I mean, you have to officially mate within three months and return to the family registration office to show your marks, but it would work for adoption." The worker eagerly explains. 

"O-okay. Let's do that." Boyoung shyly responds.

When Boyoung, the alpha detective, and Yoongi arrive at the family registration office, they are escorted to an office. "Names." The man behind the desk mutters.

"Park Boyoung," Boyoung responds as she continues to hold Yoongi's hand.

"Min Hyungsik." The alpha officer hums as he gently places his hand on Boyoung's back.

"You have not officially mated." The man grumbles as he looks at the forming family.

"We have an emergency situation. We are courting at the moment and plan on mating." Hyungsik responds as he keeps a protective and reassuring hand on Boyoung's back.

"You have three months to mate before your registration is revoked." The man's gaze softens when he sees the silent, lifeless beta pup.

"Thank you." Boyoung sighs in relief as the man stamps their registration papers.

"Good luck." The man smiles and motions for them to leave.

Once Boyoung and Hyungsik have been registered as mates, they return to the adoption center. Because no one has appeared to dispute the adoption, they are not required to appear in court, so they are able to get the adoption approved without a judge's approval.

"Thank you so much." Boyoung sniffles as she looks at the adoption papers. 

"We couldn't have done this without your help." Hyungsik smiles and shakes the adoption officer's hand.
