These Beast Husbands Are Too Hard To Tame, So I Just Give Them Cubs!

Chapter 33: 33: Hard Female Labour

Sunnie and Little Black arrived at the back side of the cave beneath the waterfall. There was an opening there which led into the tribe from the backside.

Following the path through with their pots, the two saw the atmosphere surrounded by bushes and trees. It seemed like a garden of some sort, because they saw some beast ladies standing around and plucking from the trees. They harvested flowers, fruits and some other stuff.

It was clear that they were making preparations for the festival that was happening that evening.

Sunnie observed how these beast ladies were all dressed in the same style as the previous ones they saw at the river. She watched as they quietly did their chores enthusiastically as though they’d be getting paid or something.

"Hey! What are you guys doing there dillydallying?! Hurry up and go empty that pot and get to work!"

A chubby beast woman snapped at them. This woman was standing on an elevated land on a rock, both hands on her waist. She was wearing yellow loincloths while she cast her rude gaze at them.

Sunnie and Little Black instantly looked down to avoid her seeing their faces.

"Yes!" Sunnie answered as they made their way off. They followed some other ladies who were going to empty their pots in a cooking cave.

Sunnie took her time to observe the environment. It was a typical tribal setting with cave houses and huts built at different spots. Sunnie could tell that the tribe wasn’t that populated; the setting wasn’t that big. But it was organised in a cohesive manner.

She looked around at the trees and bushes, the rocks and installations made to make their lives better, but she couldn’t guess where they had kept her husbands.

She had followed them to empty their waters in a hole in the cave, so Sunnie thought that would be the end of their jobs. But little did they know that they’d be working for hours!

The beast ladies spent almost their whole day working, and Sunnie and Little Black had no choice but to be a part of it. They cleaned the caves, washed clothes of the cubs, made preparations for the setting and meals of the festival, and arranged stuff.

Sunnie could feel her waist ache from all this work. She couldn’t remember ever working this hard at all!

And while these ladies were busy working, the men were having fun!

Sunnie couldn’t help but watch them sit around, drinking and chatting. Some were practicing their fighting skills with one another, some were flirting and pestering the ladies, some were flaunting their achievements and dances, while some were just sleeping!

Sunnie was so pissed off. It was obvious at this point that this system ran on patriarchy. Which wasn’t surprising given that this is a barbaric, prehistoric setting. But Sunnie was still pissed off.

The evening soon arrived and these ladies finally stopped working and were asked to go and prepare for the festival.

And then Sunnie understood why the brown haired beast girl from earlier had wanted to take a bath in the big river. Because these beast ladies were subjected to taking their baths in a small pond.

They would be asked to go in five or more at a time in the little space so they’d be faster and not waste much time. And the water they used was basically water used for work or recycled water.

Sunnie was baffled. She guessed the ladies here were basically taken as maids while the men had their fun. She pitied them.

It was a setting where the men were treated as gods while the ladies were treated as nothing much.

And while the ladies all lined up to take their bath in preparation, Sunnie and Little Black sneaked off.

Even though they had worked all day and now probably smelt like rotten cheese, they still wouldn’t be taking their baths!

They made their way into the beast ladies’ cave space, a cave meant for unmarried beast ladies. More of a hostel setting.

"Gosh! This is so itchy!" Little Black snapped as he pulled out his lion ears. He stretched out himself as Sunnie heard his bones crack.

She pitied the poor kid while wondering if he was a kid at all! How could a kid possibly have such strength to work that much without breaking down?

Sunnie guessed he was a strong kid.

Sunnie and Little Black sat down on a rock, taking off their wigs and letting their tall rabbit ears stand tall.

"That was torture!" Little proclaimed. "It must suck being a lady in this tribe."

"I blame the dumb patriarchy system," Sunnie sighed.

Little Black stared at Sunnie. "So what are we doing now? We have to act fast. We can’t stay here forever! I can’t move a muscle anymore!"

Sunnie sighed. "Me too. Tonight is the festival and they’ll probably be bringing them out, so we’ll act then."

"What do we possibly do? We can’t fight them all, you know?" Little Black reminded.

Sunnie nodded. "I know. So we have to find a way to outsmart them." She was already cracking her brain and coming up with something.

When suddenly they heard a sound. Someone had dropped something.

And as the two of them got up and turned, they saw a beast lady staring at them in immense shock.

The lady’s lion ears stood tall with her tail, staring as though she had seen a ghost.

Sunnie recognized her after a while; it was the brown hair lady from the river earlier. But that didn’t matter either, because she had seen them in their real form!

Now they had to think of a way to escape this!

"Well..." Little Black tried moving back but his rabbit tail popped up from behind. He blinked. "This is bad."

The beast girl stared at them from head to toe, shocked at the sight before her.

As to what she’d do, Sunnie and Little Black couldn’t tell. But all Sunnie knew was that she couldn’t be caught like this!
