Most of the southern region of Baa'sek is cut off from the rest of the continent by the dense, dangerous Tengel Rainforest. Much of what isn't forest is swamp lands, with the Baian Swamp covering the majority of the coast. Most cities exist along the edges of the rain forests, particularly in a divide just on the eastern limits of Baa'sek. Lamenolai lies to the north while the Slums lie to the south.

Diego Pablo Reyes de Leona | Reyes Haru | Calahan Zeek
Juan Santiago Pablo Reyes, Camille Leona

The truth of the matter was simple; Juan Santiago Pablo Reyes knew better than to go to that concert. The day after was the new moon and the concert was supposed to last until well after it had risen. Of course he'd justified going, promising himself he would leave early enough to get himself locked up. But he'd gotten drunk, chased a few skirts, scored with a couple of cute guys, and the last thing he remembered was doing a line of the purest coke he'd ever seen. As it turned out, he did leave the concert, albeit a little too late and very much not how he'd intended. Of course, if anyone was still sober enough to realize one of their number had turned into a rather large cat, they gave no sign.

In his cat form, he ran the streets of Lamenolai until he was suddenly in the underbrush of Tengel. By this point, he was no longer the rich human man but a strong, virile saber cat roughly the size of a jaguar. And he smelled something that, despite his preferences on the matter, made the tom cat in him instantly go on alert. A female cat in heat. Raising his large head to sniff the wind, he was able to tell what direction he would find her and set out.

~~~

The next morning, he woke up as a man laying naked in the middle of Tengel, one arm draped over an equally naked woman. Thankfully she was still sleeping, so he was spared any sort of awkward questions. But for now, he'd count his blessings later. He quickly removed his hand from her waist to sit up, scanning the area for any scraps of clothes. Not seeing any, he reached down to shake her awake, ask what happened the prior night, and ensure she was okay. Those were his intentions, but when she stirred from her sleep, it quickly became apparent that she was just as surprised as he was. Okay, maybe more surprised than he was.

To summarize, the "woman" in question wasn't human at all but the cat he'd smelled out during the night. Being born a werecat made him a pureblood, thus his bite and scratch could transmit the condition like a virus. Like most therianthropes, it took a full lunar cycle for the change to affect the victim. At least, it was supposed to. What he hadn't known was that biting a cat was different. The virus moved faster in feline blood and the change came on within hours.

Regardless, she obviously wasn't prepared for life as a human or a wild cat left to flounder about on her own. Not to mention she'd been in heat the previous night, what if he had knocked her up? Would the child be okay? Would she? As careless as he'd been, as irresponsible and reckless as he normally was, Juan had been raised to face the consequences of his actions. He couldn't leave her here, couldn't leave her at all until he was sure she could function on her own and that he hadn't saddled an unfortunate cat with a were-child. The thought was there, oh man it was definitely there. But his sainted mother, gods rest her soul, would turn in her grave if he did it. And despite his advanced age, his father would strike and curse him for a lowly beast.

So he took her home with him. Bought her tutors to teach her how to dress, speak, behave, and function on her own. It didn't take long for his preferences to be discovered, she having walked in on him with another man in their bed. The wound was still fresh for her when the pregnancy test came back positive, insult added to injury when he and his lawyers presented a prenup to her within twenty four hours. It wasn't hard to understand, as new as she was to this new world. She'd been ripped away from everything she'd ever known by a man that would never love her. She would be alone in a large mansion (at least he was rich, she told herself as consolation), forced to raise a child that neither of them were even sure what it would be.

He loved the child though, that much was evident from the moment the test came back positive. He put in extra hours, stashing the funds in a trust account that she could never touch. He cried at the first sonogram, threw an extravagant party when they learned the child was a boy, and talked incessantly at her stomach until she chased him out of the room. It was sickening.
