AMAZON PRINCE... Part 7
Mik eased away from the boy slowly, trying not to wince at the slight protest of his stomach. "Easy, easy," he whispered calmly. "I'm not going to hurt you. You are safe now." But the slightly smaller man remained as he was, dark eyes regarding him with all the dangerous ferocity of a caged animal.
There was the smooth hiss of curtain being drawn back before cold brown eyes surveyed the scene and then turned to regard Mik with the same look one would give debris on their boots. "What exactly are doing to the patient, General? Do you have any legitimate business here?"
It was clear that the physician's first wife Yoh was one of the few who had a gift for making him feel as if he were five and had been caught taking something he shouldn't. "I... I came to see if... the stranger..." Mik turned back to gaze at the stranger and saw he was gazing at Yoh in puzzlement.
"General, as I have told you before, this man is not your citizen, that much is clear. And he has most likely undergone something traumatizing while captured by Amazons." Confusion crossed the stranger's face. "You have had no training to deal with such matters. You may make it worse for the young man."
Why exactly Yoh would say 'young man' when he couldn't be older if not younger than Mik himself...
"Man?" the stranger questioned, startling Mik from his train of thought. "You have a man here?"
Mik and the doctor's wife shared a look of shock.
"By Zeus, it is worse than I thought," Yoh muttered.

Fey was bewildered to say the least when the same deformed Amazon being tortured appeared hale and healthy with only a slight flushing in the cheeks as though they had undergone some strenuous exercise and proceeded to berate the blonde he met at the river.
Perhaps it wasn't torture then and just a form of exercise? Perhaps it was a type of wrestling for these people. The warriors in training back home often competed by attempting to dominate the other by agility, grace and slyness rather than strength.
Or perhaps he had witnessed a form of muscle stretching like his mother practiced after a battle? The Amazon before him might be a healer or a healer in training learning how to tend to stressed muscle. He was ashamed of his foolishness.
He was drawn from his thoughts when he heard the word 'man'....
".... captured by Amazons." How long had he been in his own thoughts that the two would have moved onto a new topic?
"You have had no training to deal with such matters. You may make it worse for the young man."
Oh... the blonde one was going to propagate soon? "Man? You have a man here?" he asked somewhat excitedly. He had never seen one before. The tent of the captured men was on the opposite side of the village in the center of the huts where many childless warriors lived for easy access. After they were sure that a child was conceived, the male breeding partner would be killed.
Wait... had the man been the one to shoot him at the river?
If so, then Amazonian law would state because he survived the man would be his to bear with.
Fey grew pale.
Of course he wanted a child... someday. But...
Suddenly realizing how silent the atmosphere of the room had become, Fey looked up into the strange faces of the two still figures.
"By Zeus, it is worse than I thought," the dark haired one stated.
Fey was once again confused. The Amazon had sworn by Zeus, the evil male bearing partner of their Goddess!
Perhaps this is why they were deformed. They had gone against Hera and were cursed.
Perhaps he had done so as well when he was too young to remember.
