It hadn't been easy leaving the clan, but Kepo firmly believed he was being dealt an honor. He was a gift, a consort for the leader of this strange pack.
So far this pack seemed rather ... disorganized, but you could hardly expect some foreign pack to be run properly. They also were into bones in a big way. Kepo wasn't much for bones. If there wasn't meat on them, why would you want them? This pack of weirdos evidently thought they were valuable, and Kepo had been making an effort to be polite about them, but in his heart of hearts he thought the place could use a good sprucing up. The females back home would have been screeching about living in a rubbish pit.
It just went to show that one hyena's trash was another hyena's treasure.
It was hard to tell these bonegrubbing hyenas apart, with their black and grey spotty pelts, but when Kepo saw Masuko there was no doubt in his mind that she was the alpha. It was in the way she carried herself. He darted forward, smoothly inserting himself directly in her path and planting himself in place. He tossed his head to adjust his mane to maximum sexy and gave her his most winning grin.
"Hey."

It was something never done before, but Masuko had never heard of another hyena pack anywhere in the savanna. After the war, many hyenas had deserted, wandered, or merely left to tent to their woulds before returning. Gossip had filled the air, and after prying out the proper information from a few foolish scouts, Masuko had learned more of them. An alliance would help strengthen the Mava'Bunda, as disgusting as it made the new Alpha feel. Alliances that lastest were only developed through mating, and Masuko felt she had far more work to do than pupsit a useless male.
So the male was here. Kepo. He stuck out in his own way, mainly for his coat. Most of the pack were a scattering shade of greys, blending in well in their environment, while the new consort was an odd mix of brown and black. Masuko thanked the stars above he wasn't the same cream as those hellish lions, otherwise she would have sent him right on home.
Pacing the pack, albeit slower than usual, she nearly ran into the idiot while tossing ideas around in her mind. She was startled for a moment, and snarled at him. Somehow, she was beginning to worry about her choice of mate. "What do you want?"

Sassy. He liked that. Kepo appreciated a lady that wanted to wear the pants in the relationship. He allowed himself to preen for just a moment, tossing his head again so that Masuko would get a good view of his good side. Of course, both of his sides were pretty good, but he was just feeling his right profile today. Masuko was obviously very busy, so he thought she would appreciate a good look at just how handsome her new mate was. Especially since all the other hyenas were seemed to be drab shades of grey. Nothing against grey, of course, his mother was grey, but can you say monochrome?
"Well, we haven't really been introduced," Kepo said smoothly, not thrown off by Masuko's snarling. "Since I'm your consort, I thought we should get to know each other. So I can serve you well." And get in your pants. "And bring you, you know..." He glanced around at the dismal landscape despairingly, "Bones. Or whatever you people like."
Kepo struck another pose.

Yikes.
Kepo had been chased off by irate females before, but he had never been borne to the ground and menaced like this. Masuko was a spicy one indeed. He cringed away from her teeth, wriggling into the dust. This was hardly a flattering look for him, but if it would make his mate happy he was willing to put up with it.
Besides, he was just a little bit terrified.
"What things?" Kepo asked, feeling a bit dazed. Was she talking about princess? Queen? Annoyance pushed aside his terror somewhat. "My mother is a Queen and my sister is a Princess, if it's all the same to you, Madame Alpha," Kepo groused. "I like calling you Queen better than Alpha. A Queen is a proper female leader, and an Alpha could be anyone." He rolled aside instinctively, anticipating an attack from Masuko.

While Kepo seemed to be losing his temper, Masuko was starting to cool off. She was always mildly angry - it came with the job. But he seemed to have a little fire in him, and she liked that. He was still a fly-eared-bouncing-gazelle-poor-excuse-for-a-graveyard hyena, though.
"You've been sleeping on bones?" she chuckled. "You fight for an elephant skull to sleep in, though I suppose we should be sharing one." It disgusted her to think about sharing her space, but if he was neat enough she wouldn't complain too much.
She paced around a bit, slinking between a set of massive rib bones that leered over the pair of them. They were pretty useless, but they always looked impressive to outsiders and fresh slaves. "This is the elephant graveyard, my dear consort. A land that we claim as our own as terrors of the savanna."
She approached him again, knowing that there were at least a few curious eyes watching them. There always was, even when their alpha demanded they leave. Hyenas were always looking out for their own necks instead of being faithful followers.
"I'm sure you have more questions, but experience is always the best teacher." Even her father had taught her that. "You are no longer what you claimed to be. You are now a graveyard hyena. MY graveyard hyena," she claimed with a jeer.

If Masuko had any idea of what Kepo was really thinking, well, she would have skinned him right then and there. For a male she thought stupid, he wasn't. He was just a little conceited, intent on getting into the sack with her and whoever else may want to jump with the consort. As Masuko could bed anyone she wanted, it was only fair for Kepo too. Masuko wouldn't be too thrilled if she wasn't the first one, however.
"Certainly, consort." She was feeling a bit happier now, if a 'normal' hyena could call it that. She'd get him to fall under her paw, no matter what. She sauntered off, assuming that he would follow her. He better, or he might get lost. The best elephant skull was not in the most obvious place, as Masuko wasn't stupid enough to let sneaky lions try to assassinate her.
