‘SHIT!’ you thought. Standing before you was a massive Hyena woman. She wears a leather vest armor that exposes two muscular arms, and a leather skirt around her waist. She had a nasty scar over her left eye, leaving on her right brown one. Around her neck was a pendant made from a human skull and a large green stone circle. Her feet were bare, and to you surprised very human-like. “ where is the one they call David.” She said in a low voice. You stepped forward. “ I am--mp” You didn’t have time to process to see her reach down and grab you. You nearly lost your breakfast with the speed at which you traveled. “ The rest of you are to stay in there till tomorrow” Ula pointed to a small door “once the morning comes you'll leave.” Samuel. “ if I may. Miss Ula “ “ Only David is to come in priest. You'll not be needed ” Ula snarled. Though you hope it would not be them, you knew if it was, that the hyenas would prefer their own priestesses. Though you'd wish that Samuel could come. you knew none of you men would be safe in the city, especial a male priest. .” I Know that miss” “DONT CALL ME MISS LITTLE MAN” “Sorry m- Ula. But the king gave me this letter to give to David before I go.” When Samuel pulled the letter. Ula knelt down and grabbed the letter. Before shoving it to you. “ Now you have. Now In the hole priest ” As Ula made sure you men went into the hole, you read the letter. it read:
” Dear David
If you're reading this then you have found that I married you to a Hyena. And I knew what that mean. While you were told that this marriage was for a just peace. While true, it is for wars to come. A kingdom such as ours needs a strong army to fight against both macro and human armies, as well as trade routes that will need guarding. The fierce women of hyenas are the best choice I could make. That’s why as part of the deal you do not marry as a husband, but as a wife of old. That is the way of the hyenas. You will be at your new wife’s everywhere, and all children you beget will belong to her line. And you must support her in her affairs no matter the cost. And in exchange, they’ll protect our roads and keep most of our enemies at bay. I know their women are not gentle with their males. To protect your physical well-being, I made an arrangement. While nothing can make you not human, you’ll be given something to survive the nights to come. As for your sprite, I can only wish you the best of luck.
--Your father
King Dean of the Human kingdom. . ”
You put the letter away. Couldn’t believe it. Your father just used you like this. And there's nothing that can be done about it, for you knew what he meant by wives of old. Back when women had no say of partners. You will belong completely to your new wife. You could only pray that you will not be treated cruelly, You looked up from your letter to see Ula looking at you. “ done yet!” you look around to see you already behind the closed gates. The news must have hit you more than you liked.” Yes, mama” Ula smiled “ Finally, I get respect.” AS Ula takes you to her queen. You take in the city. The houses are built of timber and stone. The shops and vendors lined up against a stone wall. You saw a large wooden board covered in papers, the papers had names and numbers under pictures of both male hyenas and…Humans? “ what is that?” you asked “ Ulas first looked at you then looked at the boards '' Ah, the bachelor board.” you looked up to Ulas “ Bachelor board.?” Ula looked down at “ Yeah! bachelor board. It’s where we find mates for our males” you then saw an older female hyena grin as she took down a picture of a male human “ Why are there humans on there?” Ula the Grin “We took some prizes.” you puzzled “ I thought hyenas didn’t take slaves.” It was true enough. The female hyenas used hard labor to grow their muscles and made their males care for their homes and children. Other than a brothel, you’d find no use for slaves here. “ And here I thought you human males had some brains.” you then felt a claw poked at you.” We took some as mates. Then we popped out some of ya.” You look back to see the board. You heard rumors of unmarried men disappearing from villages your father lost in the war. But you thought them dead, not married. “ and you humans are a valued bunch. If they’re not from our wombs or married well of. You don’t tend to last long. hell, mine didn’t even survive the wedding night.” She then rubbed the skull around her neck” but luckily he put not just a daughter to train, but a son to marry off. Hopefully, Heldina will find him a good fit for that fat ass of her.” You did not want to know any more about the topic. As you were carried through the city, you saw that most women in leather armor, fasten to so their scares and muscles were exposed. Like Ula, none of them wore shoes. Then you saw a male who was only wearing blue clothe wrapped around his thighs, just enough to cover his manhood. He was thin but didn’t look unfeed. unlike the women, he had not a muscle on him. He was swiping dirt out what you assumed was his home. He then went into the house. Not long after that, you made it to the queen's home. The first floor was a stone foundation, The other four looked to be made of wood. “Open up, the pet arrived.” you heard Ula say. Two large wooden doors open up. You were carried into the “place”. The stone wall was left bare, and two lines of columns led right to the queen. She did not dress like the rest of the females. She wore stripes of leather that crossed at her abs. She wore leather pants instead of the skirt the others were wearing. Her muscular arms were exposed, and her feet rested on a poor naked hyena boy. And her body was almost covered in scares . “ sir David, Queen Isa” you felt Ula kneel as she held you up to the queen. Isa got up shoved the poor hyena with her feet, She walked over to you. She just stood there, looking down at you with a grin on her face. She then reached into her pocket and took out a small green vial. “ I believe this was arranged,” she gave youth vial. “ you were able to grab it. Remember your father's letter and drag the green liquid. The queen then reached down gave you a sudden squeeze. The air left your body, and you could hardly move. While you remain unharmed, your body desperately tried to refill the air that it had just lost. Queen Isa, still with a smile on her face.” now you can survive…
