Sakelo shifted uncomfortably on the hard ground. The floor of this cave ... den ... whatever ... wasn't very luxurious, exactly. And although it had faded, there was still the nagging worry that he was about to be ambushed by a bunch of Bekelis. It was impossible to completely relax.
Bit by bit, the brown hyena had inched closer to the den. It was too dark to see much, but as his eyes adjusted he could make out a form. A ladylike form perhaps? No, that was probably just wishful thinking. He was hearing some very delicate, ladylike snores though. Squinting in the darkness, Sakelo scooted closer still. Damn. He just couldn't tell if she was hot or not. Closer.

Oh, how Zalika hated waking up. In her dreams she lived a life of fantasy, one where she was the Queen of a pack full of properly submissive and extremely intelligent -- not to mention handsome -- males that catered to her every whim. Alas, 'pon waking such dreams were shattered and the harsh realization of every day life set in. Here during waking hours she was merely a princess to a pack full of dull-witted males that ran around bumbling into walls and screeching about this and that.
With a small huff she rose to her feet, completely oblivious to the gift she'd been left by her father. After a quick stretch and a hearty yawn she daintily padded towards the mouth of her den, intent on an early 'morning' bath before beginning her day.

Movement in the den! Sakelo straightened up as much as possible in the dark cave. Of course, she couldn't see him, but he knew he was hot. There was only the question of whether or not she was hot enough for him ... well, even if she wasn't he might give her a pity-hump. She might be a poor little shut-in, living with her filthy father, just dreaming of a big strong man. If that was the case Sakelo would give her a fond memory.
Well, he would find out how hot she was soon enough. Sakelo was blocking her way out of the den. "Well, good morning princess," he said smoothly, smiling rakishly in the darkness.

Picture this in slow motion: you've seen it in movies millions of times.
Zalika stepped forward into the dim light that poured forth from the mouth of the den area. She was shaking her head back and forth to rid herself of the bedhead she was plagued with. Sleepy-eyed and soft with sleep the sun shimmered off of her alabaster mane, glinted off of the impeccable creamy beige of her coat. Dainty and delicate, feminine and regal, a true Princess in every meaning of the word.
And back to normal speed.
Hearing his voice Zalika couldn't help but let out a loud shriek of surprise. She lifted a paw and swung in the general direction of his voice, hoping to find purchase against his face. She was being accosted! In her own den!
"HELP ME!!!"

Sakelo hadn't expected to be violently attacked by the lazy female. Bekeli had all but offered this female up on a platter. He had thought she would show a little gratitude to find a handsome male such as himself waiting for her.
The paw grazed ineffectually against his cheek. It hadn't hurt much, but it would be impossible to dodge blows he couldn hardly see in this cramped cavern. Sakelo moved back a bit, trying to get out of her range. "Settle down," he said, slightly annoyed. So far this day wasn't going at all as he had planned. He had followed a stinking hyena down into a cave, and now he was getting beaten up by Bekeli's ingrate of a daughter.
"Stop yelling like that. It's your lucky day. I'm your prince charming."

He was going to FORCE himself upon her! He was going to TAKE her maidenhood! No! She would fight him tooth and claw. She would scream for help and hopefully one of her stupid brothers or even her awful father would come to her aid. How could this be happening to her!
She shrieked again, eyes bulging with the effort. She didn't hear anything he said. No, Zalika could not give in to this male! Of course he had come to her den first! She was the prettiest daughter, the best daughter! He was here to take them all, wasn't he!? Where was her father! Where were her brothers?
"HEEEELP MEEEE!!!!"
No, not today good hyenasir.

Now that she was in the light (dim as it was) Sakelo could see her better. She wasn't ugly, deformed, or hunchbacked. He couldn't tell if she was hot, but he thought she might be.
Maybe Bekeli hadn't been full of crap after all. Jackpot.
Sakelo moved back a little further, now trying to get out of range of her ear-splitting screams. If she didn't quiet down she would probably scream herself into a faint. And then they would have to start this all over again. "I'm your prince, princess!" he repeated, a little more loudly this time to make himself heard over the shrieks. "I met your dad. He said you were looking for a good time." He couldn't help waggling his eyebrows a bit.

Whoa whoa whoa WHAT?!
Zalika paused in her flailing and her screaming. She squinted her eyes at the male in the dim light of the caves, breathing heavily and panting just the slightest.
Did he say that her FATHER had brought him here? To her DEN?! For a good TIME!??!
Her breathing quickened and nostrils flared. He couldn't be serious. No, not even Bekeli was stupid enough to do something this preposterous. Well... maybe he was. Here was the proof, really. This male in front of her, while decent-enough to look at, was extremely sleazy and reminded her somewhat of Sudaj. Maybe he wasn't as greasy, but he was still sleazy with those waggling eyebrows.
"Did you say my father brought you here? What was his name?" Just a little more proof. Bekeli wasn't the type to go around hollering at hyenas and sharing his name. If this hyena did know her fathers name, well.
She would kill Bekeli.

The princess had calmed down a little. That was a relief. It would be hard to put the moves on her with her screaming like that. He could tell that she was still fussy, but that would probably go away soon. Girls just loved him, he couldn't do anything about it.
"Yeah, your father said you needed some company." Sakelo grinned. Now that he had gotten a closer look at this female, he was starting to think that this would be enjoyable instead of just a pity-hump. "He said his name was Bekeli. And might I add, you're a hell of a lot better looking than he is."

A strange stillness crept over Zalika. Betrayed by her own father. Her safety sacrificed for the hope of finding her a mate. Did he not think her capable of finding her OWN consort?! And he'd just left this strange male here unsupervised? In the royal dens? Without being watched over?
A strange expression contorted Zalika's face. A bloodlust washed over her features and she opened her mouth. The most hellish sound ripped from her throat and she shook with rage.
Yes, she would kill Bekeli.
Finished with screaming and throwing her little temper tantrum, she pushed Sakelo away from her and marched out of the den and into the daylight. She barked over her shoulder a swift, "You're coming with me. NOW!" before going in search of her mother.

Jeez, this chick really must be a princess. He didn't think he had ever met a hyena quite so uppity. It was kind of sexy, but it was no wonder Bekeli was such a wreck. Sakelo sure wouldn't want to cater to this crazy girl day in and out.
"Are we going somewhere private?" Sakelo asked as he fell into step beside the furious female. He figured chances were low that they were going off to a love nest, but there was no harm in asking, right? He strutted along, quite pleased to be with this cute little hyena. She was younger, but there was nothing wrong with that. Adult females were so ... beefy. It was kind of refreshing to be with a younger one.

Zalika shot Sakelo a look. Did he really think that she was going to... to... MATE with him?! For the love of... Bekeli had brought this fool to her doorstep! She would never trust her father in the impeccable ways of a proper male hyena. Though Sakelo was handsome enough to look at and hadn't tried to put his paws on her, well... he would have to be trained. He would have to prove himself to her.
"No, we are not going anywhere PRIVATE. Besides, if you were a proper male you would know that you should walk BEHIND your Queen." She snorted in disgust. Yet another reason why Bekeli would have to die. That was the only way this could be fixed.
"We are going to my mother. I am going to demand that my father be killed. He.. he... he BETRAYED me!!"

She was talking to him instead of screaming for help, which was a definite step in the right direction. Sakelo could tell that this would be tricky, though. That was all right. He was up for the challenge.
Undeterred by her scorn, Sakelo continued walking at her side. "You're a princess, not a queen," he pointed out. "Yet. Also, we look pretty good together."
Sakelo wasn't thrilled about meeting this hyena's mom. Wasn't that moving a little fast? They hadn't even really had a first date yet. "There's no reason to have the poor guy killed," Sakelo said. "He could have brought home anyone. Instead he brought me." He sounded a bit smug as he said this. Bekeli could have brought back someone as disgusting as Bekeli himself, but he had lucked out in finding Sakelo.

Zalika let out a petulant little growl. It wasn't the fact that Bekeli had brought a male into the clan for the purpose of being Zalika's consort. No, it was the fact that he'd led the male right to her den -- when she was sleeping! It didn't matter that he hadn't made any attempt on her life, but still!
"I will let my mother decide. He is just lucky I am not seeking audience with my aunt. She would surely have him killed. My mother has a soft spot for the stupid waste of flesh." She still couldn't understand why, but who was she to question her mother let alone her Queen. "My aunt would never let a thing go unpunished, but I imagine my mother will simply chide him and send us on our way."

If Zalika's aunt was worse than her, then Sakelo definitely didn't want to meet her. Zalika's bitchiness was cute in such a small hyena. It would be less cute on a big strong female.
Oh, well. It seemed like he was being dragged to meet her mom whether he wanted to or not. Sakelo shrugged, still walking along beside Zalika. He decided to try and be flattered. "So you want me to meet your mom, huh?" On the one paw, Zalika's mom had produced Zalika, but on the other paw, she had used Bekeli to do so. Sakelo wasn't sure what to expect.
