As our current ruler starts to age, a feisty, energetic young lioness steps up.
โWho might you be?โ
Our king, Kthulu asks.
โMy name is Eros, and I step up to be the heir to this pride.โ
The pure white lioness spoke with an undeniable power in her voice.
Kthulu just chuckled.
โYouโre a lioness, lionesses donโt rule prides.โ
He snapped at her.
โLioness sit back and obey their MALE leaders.โ
โBut-!โ
She went to speak up, but got silenced with a slap to her muzzle.
โNow, are there any MALE lions whoโd like to step up as a heir?โ
The whole pride was silent. Not a single lion dared to look him in the eyes, except Eros. With a roar she swung her tail, signaling for the pride to follow. That day, that fateful day, each and every lion and lioness left, including our ex-kingโs soul partner, Safe & Sound. (28-10-2022)

Many moons later, our queen Eros is wandering our lands, when she comes across an odd lion..
Though her face is covered with a hood, her eyes shine with an unworldly beauty. Eros approaches her with caution, her curiosity being too much to ignore.
โMy lady, you happen to be on the lands of my pride, and I must ask why youโre here.โ
The lioness stops in her tracks, her eyes frozen on Eros.
โI was just passing through, I have not hunted on your lands, and I mean no harm!โ
Her voice was like honey, smooth, sweet, and slow. Her words were genuine. With a purr Eros approached her, careful not to startle her.
โMy lady Iโm curious, why do you wear that hood?โ
โWell, I was told that my beauty was so unmatched for a mortal, that the gods would be angry if I wasnโt covered.โ
Eros just laughed, she could spot her beauty from miles away.
โMy lady, being locked in a cave couldnโt hide your radiance, what will a measly hood do?โ
โYou flatter me,..โ
She paused, looking up at Eros.
โI never caught your name?โ
โEros.โ
The lioness looked at our queen in surprise
โEros, as in the daughter of Aphrodite?!โ
โThat is me, my lady. I speak from truth when I say that your beauty is almost unmatched. You must be one of my motherโs favorites, i just know it.โ
The lioness smiled, and that day our pride gained a new soul, Psyche. (13-11-2022)
