Nyeusi had just conned a beautiful pendent from a very young and beautiful cheetah. He was apparently a family treasure one of the most valuable treasure he loved to get. Why? Well because it was the thrill, they wanted it because it was important to him and now he had it against their wishes… He wore the pendent with pride. As he was wondering in the rouge land he came across quite a few young stupid creatures that would trust him only giving him opportunity to take their treasure from then and be gone by the morning, far away. Until… another male bargained with him, if Nyeusi would let him keep his treasure he would give him information. Nyeusi was skeptical but did it anyway. The male spoke of a pride that was in need of someone with his skills to take items from other prides. A pride based on oath and a pride run by a women. He said the name was Nyoka a name all too familiar to Nyeusi, his old friend. He said they would have great use for his ‘talents’ but he wasn’t concerned about it now. He knew that it would be a place where he would be safe a place where his talents would gain him respect instead of causing him to run he knew he was going to find this pride and convince Nyoka to give him a chance. So after that he set forth toward the pride, unfortunately it was in unfamiliar land far away from his current position but he endured the journey and he finally made it to the pride lands.

Life in a pride hasn’t exactly been how Nyeusi thought I would be. He has been a part of the Kurio’Nera for some time now. He ran into it a while ago when he heard that an old friend, the boss lady Nyoka was in charge. He figured it would be a good place to retire. He was getting old and he wanted a safe place to settle down but it was hard because he has stolen from so many he would be killed if he stepped on the wrong territory. But he met a male who spoke of this pride, a Mafia pride and Nyeusi took his chance and made his was to it. Upon entering he met his old friend and almost lover, Nyoka. She was grown and heavily guarded but she told them to back down. He could tell that she was not about to trust him so lightly; but he convinced her to give him a chance, which so happens they were in need of a Merchant, something he would excel in so she allowed him to stay.
There he met Noir, a demon who pushed his limits but they have yet to do anything more than exchange words. Noir has no clue of Nyeusi’s true potential. He has also met Nanashi, the boss man and Nyoka’s lover. Nyeusi didn’t like him, which might have been because he was with Nyoka but he didn’t care so much. However it was odd that he and Nanashi looked so similar; he wondered what that meant about Nyoka.

However that didn’t matter anymore he has met an entertainer name Tabia. A pale purple beauty, with eyes like gold. A cheetah that made him fall so hard so fast. He loves her, even more than he ever felt about anyone, including Nyoka. Even more then all of his treasures. But he never knew how much trouble they could get in, it seems Nanashi had a fancy for her and that was now over since Nyeusi became a pride member. Apparently Nyoka didn’t like the fact they were falling in love either, she has scared Tabia, but Nyeusi would never let her go. He loves her. Something he’s never done a feeling he’s never shared with anyone; until now. Like she said a dark and dangerous future lay ahead of them and he was up for it so long as it meant he would have Tabia in his life he was ready to take on the world. No matter what happened now he swore their lives would always be intertwined, for he loved her and he would do anything and everything to keep them together and to protect her that was his oath. He didn’t care what anyone else would say that was for sure. Even if Nyoka disapproved he knew he would have to speak up for him, for her and for their love.

With their love grown he fear the repercussions of it; not as much as she did, but he did fear it. He didn’t know what Nyoka or Nanashi would do or how they would feel. He didn’t think they would care; they had each other after all so he didn’t understand what the big deal was. He was becoming head merchant which met he would be up higher on the totem pole. If he and Tabia had cubbins then it would increase the population of the pride and provide unrelated good blood form any arranged marriages. Tabia was working on become a Gashia, so the cubs word have a good life, they would be royalty. They wouldn’t be as royal as Nyoka’s cubs but they would be respected by the pride, he hoped.

However there is always a chance that Nyoka could threaten to kill him or worse her. He wouldn’t let that happen, if he had to leave the pride he would. He only hope that Tabia would come with him. Neither one would be safe alone… he knew that. Especially if what Tabia spoke after the dance was true… then the bosses weren’t the only one to fear, they also had to fear Mana and Noir or Bugie whoever the hell he was.

But that’s why he suggested they go speak to the boss lady in the morning so they could sort this all out before it get out of hand and there is bloodshed. He just hoped he would be able to keep his promise to Tabia and be able to protect her.
