Luna sat silently on the side as the woman in the middle raved behind a large judge's desk. She had just been my shaken awake by her neighbor, but she hadn't scolded her or even looked disappointed. After all, the Amazonian queen was reckless and wild, and clearly insane. No one could stand listening to her, though some were more scared than bored, as Luna was.
It sometimes took her an hour to reach conclusions Luna could reason out in seconds. Ridiculous.
Standing before her now, chained to the floor, forced into a kneeling position, and of course stripped naked, was an incredibly muscular man. Many of the women in the jury, where Luna currently was, were eyeing him appreciatively, but Luna didn't care for attractiveness.
In the city of the Amazons, a place that has become nearly mythical in the eyes of the folk that inhabit other regions, a man who is without an owner is immediately taken in, and either assigned a new owner or returned to their old one. Luna had no desire to be assigned any men, and so of course had the largest collection of slaves out of everyone, including the queen, although naturally the queen wouldn't accept any other than the most attractive ones. But right now, she was just praying that the queen would take enough of an interest in this one to take him. Luna sighed softly, allowing the breath of air to escape past her lips, making them flutter slightly, as though shivering at the passage of air.
This farce of a court was so incredibly boring that she had even resorted to studying every single aspect of her body and motions. Focusing on the other women, while it would give her something to do, would just depress her more. Luna had the endurance and stamina of an Amazon, but nowhere near the libido. As such, she generally ignored her male servants, so she was considered one of the most severe punishments. Apparently she was tempting enough that it was torture to be near her and not get to have her, heart, body, and all.
Luna didn't really understand that. She hadn't done anything to deserve it, and had tried to convince many people that that just wasn't true, but then the rumor reached the Queen's ears.
And unfortunately for Luna, she had just so happened to be trying to find a other concubine, and it was also a coincidence that they had met up.
A queen having concubines. Luna rolled her eyes. Not only was she so fucking horny that she had fucked numerous war prisoners to death, some of whom were being held for ransom, but she occasionally decided to have some fun with her own people as well.
There was no trace of modesty or embarrassment in the Amazon culture, unless a prisoner brought it with them. Luna hated it.
It was so fucking stupid. What was the point of just rutting like a bitch in heat the second she saw a hot guy being paraded down the street?
Technically, a male couldn't refuse a female's orders. Luna didn't care for that much either. But she had noticed the other countries around them going to hell without even the steady ride of a handbasket to go along with them, because they replaced that with the ridiculous endangered creature purses.
Luna groaned softly, letting her head fall onto the table before her. None of the other jurors were paying attention. But she was the one that the queen saw, of course. As soon as the groan slipped out of her, the Queen's head snapped towards her, and she slammed the hammer on her desk, announcing her decision.
Oh, fuck, I know that look, Luna moaned despairingly in her head.
"The offender is convicted of federal crimes, sentenced to lifetime as the Luna's slave!" the Queen shrieked. She called Luna that because of the role in the wolf heirarchy, that was apparently similar to Luna's current position.
Luna stood up, shoving against the desk to push her chair back as she walked towards the exit, the Queen's dismissal ringing in her ears. If she was lucky, she would get out in the rush, where people were already laughed.
Nope, not a chance. Because the big guy saw her trot towards the back of the room, and he grabbed her wrist. The chain that had been binding him had snapped at some point, apparently.
"So, you're the Luna, aren't you?" he asked with a twisted smile that made Luna shiver.
And that tone of voice was going to have her begging for him to get rid of himself.
