While they were traveling to Koa’s tribe, one day during the afternoon everyone was gathered to relax a little bit before dinner.
The cubs were too energetic so Astri decided to take her lute and sing for them. In the beginning, she played funny songs to play around with them and then started to sing about anyone who passed in front of her. In the end, everyone was having fun.
After dinner, she decides to sing calr songs and her angelic voice srizes everyone. She sings about believing in a life full of joy like it was made of magic, hitting everyone’s hearts and making them think about what happiness is.
When the cubs fell asleep, she stopped singing and Wayde and Zin brought Kai and Elias to bed, and Claud brought Yuki.
Cyprian puts water for Astri, and Lee hugs her from behind.
"I wish there was a tree nearby." Lee says and kisses her neck.
She chuckles and kisses his cheek.
"Not today, mighty eagle." She taps his cheek.
"Aw.."
"It’s not your turn either way." Cyprian speaks and pulls Astri to hug her close.
"Are you really following your rules here? Or is the line that is running too fast?" Astri asks.
"What do you an?" Lee asks.
"Do I really need to tell?" She chuckles.
"Are we tiring you?" Cyprian asks worried.
"A little. All of you are constantly wanting a release. I would like so ti of peace."
Lee and Cyprian look at each other now knowing all of them are getting her in different places of the ship. They pull her to their bedroom.
"We need to make a promise and don’t break it. It’s serious." Lee says to everyone.
"What is it?" Claud asks.
"We’re tiring Astri. All of us are getting her besides the line we have. She’s asking us to leave her in peace. If we don’t stop she will get tired of us." Lee speaks.
"I admit I did more than helping with the plants." Cyprian says.
" too." Zin softly speaks.
"In the storage room.." Wayde and Claud answer together and look at each other impressed.
"See? All of us are making her tired. We need to stop this." Lee speaks.
"You’re overreacting. I liked what we did. It’s just so ti. You’re five and I’m only one. That’s all. Don’t feel so pressured like this." She says.
"Exactly. We were only thinking about ourselves again. I’m sorry." Zin speaks.
"Don’t need to apologize. Understanding is already enough." She says lying down.
"Do we have a promise? Who breaks it, will be out of the line three tis." Lee speaks.
All of them nod in agreent.
"How will you know when the other breaks the promise? Until when this promise will be on?" Astri asks with a mischievous smile.
They lost their voice.
"Are you really pretending to fulfill this promise?" She chuckles.
"You tell when soone breaks the promise." Wayde says to her.
"And make you fight? You leave out of this. I have my rules, rember?"
They think deeply.
"I don’t trust myself. I want her since she started singing. I was planning to take her out after you were sleeping." Zin admits.
"Then what should we do? We can’t keep going like this." Claud speaks.
They start to discuss many possibilities. When Astri is tired of hearing them and wanting to sleep, she asks for silence.
"You only need to wait for to take the initiative. Now let’s sleep."
"But then we will never take the initiative? We’re males. We are the ones that need to be more active." Lee says and they nod.
She sighs rolling her eyes.
"Since you don’t want to sleep, you stay here and take care of the cubs. Yuki already woke up with your noise. I’ll sleep sowhere else." She stands up.
"Wait! Don’t be mad." They stop her.
"I’m not mad. But I will be if you don’t let sleep."
"All right. We will stop."
She lays down again and closes her eyes hugging Yuki. Yuki fell asleep again and when Astri was about to fall into deep sleep she started to hear their whispering.
"Outside. All of you." She says.
"I’m sorry! We just.."
"If this is so important to you it’s not the problem. Just go talk sowhere else, please. I want to sleep." She pleads.
They close their lips after apologizing again. She closes her eyes again and goes to sleep, finally.
In the next days, they promised to touch her only when they announced to each other that they wanted private ti with her. At least she could rest more and she’s grateful enough.
She rembers that Beau’s mother had 20 spouses and she wonders how it’s possible to satisfy so many males. But then she also rembers that females in the Beast World don’t actually care about their spouses’ needs or desires. Males court her and when she wants she only says the word when she wants.
Astri is not like that, but she believes that her spouses grew a lot the way they are now. That’s why all of them could be great leaders because they started to think more about others than only their female and their own desires because everyone has desires.
——
After several more days, they finally see land. Astri imagined that rn would live inside the ocean like in The Little rmaid, but they actually live pretty much like land beastn, but their hos are built near the beach.
They have a lot of wooden cabins decorated with gems, coral, and shells. Astri thinks it’s beautiful, and she can relate them to Hawaiian or Samoan people, but a little more elegant since they use money to adorn themselves and their hos.
The tribe has around 300 rn, they co to the beach to welco their leader and special guests.
When they walk on the sand, Astri’s spouses are almost giving in to the desire to kiss the land. Koa looks at Astri and smiles.
"Welco to the South rman Tribe. I hope you like staying here."
"Thank you. This place is beautiful! Congratulations for building it." She says.
Koa smiles even happier and prouder. While they start to walk to the tribe, Astri started to sll poop and imagines that they have the sa habit of living around poop. She wasn’t wrong.
Wayde carries her, already sensing her feelings. She smiles at him, grateful.
"Are you feeling all right?" Koa asks her.
"She’s fine. She can’t walk around this kind of dirt." Wayde answers pointing at the poop.
Koa looks around and then looks at Astri again.
"Why do you think she always orders to keep the ship clean?" Claud asks.
"I’m sorry, Astri. I didn’t imagine. I’ll order to clean around." Koa speaks in a hurry.
"Don’t worry. Later I’ll teach you so things, Koa. Important things." Astri says to Koa. He nods. "Don’t forget the boys. I know you want them to beco strong, but if we could avoid unnecessary diseases.." She tells.
Cyprian and Zin carry the boys.
Each cabin was a work of art, adorned with vibrant gems, luminescent pearls, and delicate corals. The gemstones, carefully selected from the ocean’s depths, shimred in the dappled sunlight, casting srizing patterns on the sandy ocean floor.
"Rember, Koa. Don’t need to announce who I am. Let’s avoid putting your tribe into unnecessary and unwanted attention." She says to Koa.
Koa holds Wayde and moves to hide his face from his people.
"But Astri... rmaids are very rude to other females. I don’t want you to face this kind of problem. If they know who you are they will treat you accordingly." Koa whispers to her.
"Is that new? Females are rude everywhere as I can see." She says.
"Be clear that Astri is a special guest and that she shouldn’t be bothered. If they go against your orders you know what to do as the leader." Claud speaks.
Koa nods and takes a deep breath. They keep walking until they arrive at the edge of the tribe. As they walk, everyone looks at the land beastn with curiosity. What impressed Astri wasn’t the looks from the females towards her, but towards her spouses.
The look on their faces was like they were seeing a exotic species that they’re curious to try. A female, wearing only strings as clothes and little shells to cover her nipples cos to them. She has long black hair and blue eyes, her chin is little but she’s still a beautiful female.
"Welco ho, Koa~ I missed you." She says, throwing herself at him. Then she looks at Wayde and Lee first, then at Claud, Zin and Cyprian. Her smile is even bigger. "Are these our special guests? Welco, handso males~"
Astri’s right eyebrow raises a little.
"This is Xandra. She’s my cousin. Xandra, treat them with the utmost respect. Their female is also our special guest, so behave." Koa speaks as a warning.
Xandra looks at Astri with clear disdain and then smiles at the others.
"Of course. I’ll treat them with respect. Let escort you to the cabin we prepared for you." Xandra says waltzing to Claud and then hugging his arm.
Claud steps away and pulls his arm.
"Touch like this again and I’ll make you regret it greatly." Claud warns but not looking at Xandra, knowing that Astri is not happy with a naked female in front of them.
Xandra only smiles biting her lips like she was the cat and they’re rats she is hunting and enjoying their fight.
