For a long time, Anindira kept trying to escape from them. The four Hyenas continued to play tricks on Anindira.
They released her again, then caught her again. Satisfied, they played with her, made her run here and there, scared her, and surprised her. They also insulted her and humiliated Anindira by uttering disgusting erotic words.
''Just give up! You can't run anywhere anymore... Enough playing around, your scent is getting stronger now,'' said the Emerald Hyena while pressing Anindira's body underneath.
''ARGH!... RELEASE ME!!! YOU stinking bastards, you jerks...'' cried Anindira, shouting curses at them. Between fear, anger, and annoyance, she kept struggling.
Unfortunately, Anindira, who was only a woman, was of course nothing compared to an Emerald-ranked man like that Hyena. Anindra became more and more hysterical because she felt disgusted by every touch of the Hyena Emerald's fingers, which continued to explore every curve of Anindira's body. Increasingly, they all laughed out loud seeing Anindira crying, screaming, and thrashing around like that.
Finally, the man's hand grabbed Anindira's collar and tried to open it. But…
Suddenly, his body was blown away, thrown from Anindira's body, and torn Anindira's clothes because he was accidentally pulled by the Hyena's hand. Anindira's upper left shoulder was also injured because the hyena reflexively released its claws following instinct when danger came.
Immediately after that, in an instant, Anindira was already in Gavriel's arms, who jumped far back, taking Anindira with him.
''Gavriel!'' Anindira called out with a very grateful expression, when she found out the person hugging her now was Gavriel, Anindira immediately hugged her tightly.
Gavriel patted Anindira's back, who was trembling with fear. Gavriel's heart was stirred with anger when he saw Anindira's body, which was already scratched here and there. Gavriel could even smell the blood coming out of the wounds on Anindira's body, not to mention the sight of Anindira's torn clothes showing the tiny twin hills in her chest.
''You guys! The Hyena clan, disgusting... rotten bastards who can only play around with a bunch of women!'' shouted Gavriel furiously.
''Your little lion acts like a master in front of women,'' said Hyena Emerald, smiling contemptuously at Gavriel.
"He's just a little Diamond-ranked Lion," said the oldest Diamond Hyena, he also gave Gavriel a disdainful face.
''Do you think you could fight the four of us?
"We'll see… what I can do to rotten hyenas like you. And you Emerald, I'll crush your head!'' exclaimed Gavriel with a calm face full of confidence, threatening them back.
While wary of each other, suddenly Gavriel fell silent with wide eyes, he finally realized something. He smelled a very seductive sweet scent of Anindira.
''WHAT IS THIS?!'' Gavriel shouted in his heart, ''WHAT IS THIS FRAGRANCE?!'' Gavriel shouted again in his heart.
''Wait, I know this scent, a scent that makes my mind go weird...'' said Gavriel, realizing something and muttering in his heart.
'' ANINDIRA! YOU...'' shouted Gavriel, who immediately looked at Anindira with sharp eyes.
Anindira was surprised to hear Gavriel calling her in a high tone and saw Gavriel's sharp eyes staring at her, but Anindira then ignored him. Anindira thought it was just Gavriel's adrenaline because Anindira also still didn't want to turn her attention to the four Hyenas who had been relaxed and laughing at Anindira and Gavriel, making Anindira even more uncomfortable seeing them, making her even more anxious.
"That's bad! This is bad, why is it even at a time like this?!'' shouted Gavriel, who felt very annoyed, he was complaining in his heart about what he had just realized, something that would further exacerbate an already precarious situation.
''Anindira!'' Gavriel called in a screeching voice while cupping Anindira's face, ''The village head must be looking for you, never meet anyone other than Ezra's family!'' shouted Gavriel, commanding.
''You hear me?!'' shouted Gavriel asked very firmly, trying to explain it to Anindira.
Anindira could only nod resignedly to what Gavriel said, while she was in a state of confusion and panic.
''Listen!'' shouted Gavriel again, ''This is what you have to do, don't think about anything! When they fall, run as fast as you can!... Run as hard as you can!'' shouted Gavriel, giving instructions while pointing in which direction Anindira should go.
''Anindira one more... Run! Even from me! You hear!'' shouted Gavriel with a very serious face, looking at Anindira, asking her to obey without arguing, ''Even from me!!!... Now! Not only them! But, me, me too!... Me too, very dangerous for you...'' cried Gavriel, giving a stern warning to Anindira.
Again, Anindira could only nod resignedly at all of Gavriel's instructions and warnings. However, Anindira still couldn't focus on everything Gavriel was saying, because Anindira was still distracted by the presence of the four Hyenas who had been too relaxed. They deliberately let Gavriel and Anindira talk because they looked down on and belittled Gavriel.
''Gavriel, you can get hurt against them alone,'' she added.
Anindira is worried about Gavriel. The very young Gavriel, a teenage Lion who was only eighteen years old, was not only outnumbered but also in strength.
Gavriel smiled wryly at Anindira, who was in a very bad condition but was still worried about her. Blood was pouring from her left shoulder, and her face and body were also scratched and bruised here and there from repeated falls and bumps on tree branches.
''I know that!'' exclaimed Gavriel with a pitiful face, ''But Anindira, believe me! I will not lose!''
Gavriel was gentle and friendly, showing his confidence in Anindira. He kept smiling, trying to calm Anindira, who was panicking and scared.
''Now... Anindira, all you have to do is... RUN!! DON'T LOOK BACK! I'm also dangerous for you now,'' Gavriel warned Anindira with a serious face, then pushed her away.
Anindira doesn't understand why she also has to run away from Gavriel, but she doesn't want to think about things that she doesn't think are important. She thought it was just Gavriel worrying too much about her. At this time, Anindira was worried that Gavriel would be able to fight them.
As soon as a fight broke out, they entered into Beast Human combat mode.
This was the first time Anindira saw the Beast Man mode.
Gavriel's body was slightly enlarged from his human form, the muscles in his body seemed to harden, sharp claws sticking out of his fingers and toes, his ears turned into lion's ears, Gavriel's white teeth turned into fangs, with a fine mane of silvery gray, sticking out along his sideburns and back. Gavriel's mane looked beautiful, glistening in the sunlight. Anindira was not even scared to look at Gavriel. However, she was amazed by the beauty and gallantry shown by Gavriel's combat mode as the Beast Man.
