Ash and the Beastmen

chapter 10

It has been about weeks since me and Hector made it official.
A lot of things happened, Mary and Harvey decided they didn't want to be in my dimension and they mated, and went to Beast City with Bia and Parker who also mated.
Sandra left with Curtis, a leopard, and a lion two weeks before Mary and Bai, so I figured she went to Beast City for Winston, Muir and Shuu.
So now the only kids I have to worry about are Rays and my own.
Ray's been out and about in the village and has found her a nice little harem two tigers Vinny and Vance one white and one bangle that are brothers, and two Raven brothers Rodger and Rick, a black snake Sebastian.
They are now frolicking with Isa in my dimension the boy's doing the field work to pay rent.
I have introduced crop rotation for farming, basic hygiene, and bathroom privacy.
The toilets are now outhouses and no more squatting or standing in your own urian or crap.
I finished my mission to gather and domesticate animals and got my reward after a week of looking for them, they reproduce a little too easily we now have a on of chickens and chicks and even a couple of roosters.
The women love the new recipes and had all their males learning from Bai before she left and once she was gone I taught them all bout my Southern Comfort food, biscuits and gravy, chicken/ Rock bird and dumplings, rock bird pot pie, potatoes soup, Rock bird fried steak.
I even learned how to churner butter  with a rock butter churner with a wood stick and lid. though the first couple of times I  hit the air pocket, it went all over me and everything else around me, I learned really fast not to hit the air Pocket.
We got our own stalls in the small Market place Yes, two stalls, one that sells cooked food another that sells goods, like grains, fruit veggies and some hand crafts.
The jewelry, clothes, and women's shoes are a hit with men trying to court female's.
We are now rolling in crystals, Bai taught us as much as she could before she left like which plant produce oil, I taught her how to make a hand loom.
Today my Mates have decided that it is time to go to beast City and join the girls that way I can find more mates and let the kids out to experience the beast world in safety for a little bit anyways.
  I was going threw the cave and storing everything into my storage I didn't want my guards to be weighed down for the next two days.
  I was a little upset that the sattle for Hector was not going to be done any time soon so bare back it was.
I was sitting in the hollow of the Hectors back without a saddle or blanket. I must maintain balance by sitting a little forward on the Hector, and resting my legs along the crease between the shoulder muscles in the center section of Hector.
   Hector and I were flanked by Judas, Tony, and Billy.
   Imagine stepping into a forest untouched by modern civilization, where the air is thick with humidity and the earthy scent of rich soil. Towering above you are immense trees that reach for the sky, their trunks thick and gnarled with age. The canopy overhead forms a dense, green umbrella that filters sunlight into dappled patterns on the forest floor below.
   As you Ride through the undergrowth, ferns and mosses carpet the ground, creating a soft, damp cushion beneath Hector silencing his and the others footsteps.
Giant cycads and fern-like plants with prehistoric origins add to the primeval atmosphere, their fronds rustling in the gentle breeze.
   The calls of strange and exotic creatures echo through the forest - the haunting cries of birds, the low rumble of colossal moving through the shadows, and the rustling of small mammals scurrying among the ferns. In the distance, you catch glimpses of massive herbivores browsing on the lush vegetation, while predatory colossal stalk their prey with silent, deadly precision.
  Sunlight filters through the dense foliage, casting a golden glow over the scene and illuminating the vibrant greens and earthy browns of the prehistoric flora. The forest is alive with movement and sound, a vibrant tapestry of life that has thrived for millions of years in this ancient, untouched world.
Judas and Tony alternated between each other on hunting, by the time night came we had enough meat to cook dinner.
I had stored the boar and deer meat along with some fruits and veggies that we came across while traveling.
Not wanting to be out in the open where It was dangerous I popped all of us into my dimensional space and I cooked for all of us.
When our dinner was done we all ate in a comfortable silence all of us tired for the traveling,
When bedtime came we all got into bed and passed out cuddling with me in the middle with Billy and Judas on on either side of me and they're human forms. On the other side of Billy was Hector on the side of Judas was Tony.
I slept like a log, nice and warm with all the body heat.
In the morning I woke up nice and refreshed and got ready for the day with a nice shower, brushing my teeth and hair.
  I cooked up some biscuits and gravy, pancakes, eggs, bacon, and sausage for everyone while they were getting ready for the day the kids were still asleep, no one was going to wake them up, I was just going to leave them breakfast.
I guess the smell attracted people from the other houses because Ray and her people came through the door not only 10 minutes after I started cooking.
  She got herself a spatula and joined me in cooking, I let her do the pancakes since I can't really seem to make unmessy ones, and I cook the bacon, sausage, eggs and gravy the biscuits were already in the oven.
   When all the food was done, we sat around the table eating while making a plan on entering Beast City, Ray and her men and daughter we're going to enter with us.
But to make it a little bit more convenient on travel we are leaving them and our kids in my dimensional pocket, that we have started calling Eden.
We got to the beast City around lunch time,
I pulled Ray and her family and my two kids out of Eden.
Xane had shifted into his cub from, El rode on Tony, while I was on Hector again, Ray was on Vinny and Isa saying she was a big girl rode Sebastian's tail all of us girls wearing hoods to block the sun light and curious stares.
  The guards halted us at the gate and asked politely, "please, state your business here in Beast City."
I pulled down my hood and stated,"my sister and I want to move our families here we each have a daughter and want them to be safe. I also have 3 daughters that live here Sandra, Mary and Bai QingQing."
   He started to stutter and said, "p-please make your way, t-to one of the p-palaces. The leopard king would be happy to receive his son's mate's mother."
   " Thank you for the information, how much for an entry for me and my party? "
"For all of you it is one emerald crystal." The little bunny guard said with a deep shade of red on his face.
  The bunny Peaked my interest he was tall lean and muscular his cute angular face was trying so hard to look serious, I looked at him and his Amber eyes and gave him a smile.
    I always like bunnies and this one's white ears were so cute and fluffy I wanted to touch, tilting my head to the side and asked,"do you have a mate?"
He blushed even deeper and said,"no ma'am I do not it's one of the reasons why the eight King has positioned us here neither one of us has the mate so we're disposable."
I frowned at this statement and said, " no one's disposable everyone's life has a meaning and matters. Just think of your poor mama who went through all of that pain and suffering to bring you into this world and you say you don't matter you're disposable, I don't think so sir, I bet your mama doesn't think so either."
I didn't know that it was possible, but his white bunny ears turned pink from embarrassment, they matched the rest of him the only thing that wasn't pink was his hair which was a nice shiny white.
I paid the bunny, and me and my Entourage made our way to the leopard Kings Palace with the bunny guards help.
The castle was magnificent in it's  medieval stone work, with turrets towers and walls, each arch way had its own unique pattern and details.
The main doors were of a solid wood with animals carved into it depicting a scene of them bowing down to a faceless curvy woman surrounded by a light.
She was about as curvy as I was getting, since coming here I have lost a lot of weight the green crystals have been helping with any saggy skin and all my aches and pains are no more.
   Once inside we or brought to a city room that had tapestries in the walls and furs on the floor.
And so we waited....
