Deep in a lush, ancient forest, three suns blazed high in the sky, their golden rays piercing through the dense plants. Sunlight dappled the forest floor and scattered across the pale, delicate face of Nyx Voss. 

Her slight and frail frame curled up in sleep spoke volumes that her body was starved of nourishment, and her soul was desperate for safety. 

Nearby, a magnificent tiger lounged lazily and looked like a silent guardian to the fragile figure. 

Not far off, a sprawling wolf pack kept a vigilant watch. The alpha perched closest to Nyx, its piercing vertical pupils betraying an unexpected softness as they lingered on her. 

In the shadows of the underbrush, several sleek leopards prowled quietly, their sharp eyes sweeping the surroundings, poised to defend against any threat to Nyx’s peaceful slumber. 

Then, something happened. 

The deafening roar of engines shattered the tranquility, sending flocks of birds scattering into the sky and small creatures scurrying for cover. A massive spacecraft began its descent, breaking through the tree line and sending shockwaves of unease rippling through the forest. 

Yet the wild beasts surrounding Nyx held their ground. They showed their dangerous teeth and made low snarls in their throats, as if they had turned on the battle mode to drive this metallic intruder out of their territory. 

The ship landed with a mechanical hiss, its bulk settling on the ground. The hatch opened, and a squad of heavily armed soldiers emerged in formation, their boots crunching against the forest floor. They moved with practiced precision. 

Their mission was to extract the precious resources owned by the empire’s military on this planet. 

This was a long–term mission and almost like routine work for the soldiers. Yet today, they stumbled onto something they couldn’t have prepared for. 

“Uh… Are those… wild beasts?” one soldier murmured, staring slack–jawed at the surreal sight. 

“Tigers, wolves, and leopards? What kind of wild soap opera is this?” another added incredulously. 

It didn’t take a zoologist to know that different species didn’t make friends, and those apex wild beasts would never show up in the same picture. 

By nature, they were highly territorial and should have been at each other’s throats upon meeting. Yet here they were, coexisting in an oddly harmonious way. 

“Look! They’re circling something. Is it some kind of treasure?” one of them whispered. 

Speculation ran wild as they squinted into the cluster of animals. ‘Is it some kind of rare mineral? Or maybe some valuable plants attract these beasts to guard them?‘ 

The soldiers edged closer, trying not to provoke an attack. The beasts became more bristled. They kept making low growls to stop the soldiers from approaching them. 

But then, through the gaps in the protective circle, the soldiers finally caught a glimpse of what lay in the middle. 

Holy shit! That’s… a female, one soldier shouted.

“A female! Oh my! Am I dreaming?” another stammered, as if they’d just spotted a unicorn in a city park. 

Someone else asked, “This is insane! What the hell is a female doing on a Primitive Planet?” 

Everybody, chill. Let’s drive the wild beasts away. Don’t let them hurt her,” someone else chimed in. 

The soldiers tread carefully, opting not to use their weapons. They didn’t want to wreck the planet’s ecosystem or risk harming this unexpected discovery.

Finally, after a few tense exchanges of growls and gestures, the beasts seemed to decide the soldiers weren’t a threat. They exchanged looks, shot Nyx a few glances, and reluctantly melted into the forest. 

Just then, the soldiers realized that the group of wild beasts didn’t mean to hurt that female but to protect her. 

“That was incredible,” one of the soldiers sighed. 

“I can’t wrap my head around it. Are those really just low–IQ wild beasts, not beastmen or something?” asked another man. 

“Damn, we might need to file a report on that. Somebody’s gonna have to reclassify those species,” someone else. commented. 

For now, though, their priority was clear: get the female to somewhere safe. The mining task could wait. 

The spacecraft roared back to life and lifted off, carrying Nyx to their base. The moment the supreme commander of the base, General Theon Lane, heard about the rescue, he came straight to check on the female and wasted no time in sending a detailed report to the higher–ups. 

“She’s in bad shape,” muttered Zayne Larsen, the base’s lead physician, as he flipped through Nyx’s medical results. His face was a storm cloud of worry. “Her bone age tells she’s barely twenty. She’s severely malnourished, and she’s covered in old 

scars…” 

“This has all the signs of a brutal abuse case,” Zayne added, his voice cold with fury. 

“The planet she was found on is classified as a non–inhabited Resource Planet,” he continued. “The soldiers said she was surrounded by wild beasts. 

“This isn’t just abuse. Someone left her to die on that planet! It’s a straight–up attempted murder of a female!” 

Hearing that, Theon was furious. 

He stood by the medical pod and looked down at the peacefully sleeping girl inside. 

Her delicate face was as small as his palm. Her pointed chin held a faint blush of pink. She was tiny, and her fragile frame was almost like a trembling flower bud on a windy branch–so delicate and soft that it seemed like a single touch might shatter her. 

She was so weak and heartbreakingly beautiful. It wasn’t hard to imagine countless males would be willing to lay down their lives to protect her. 

The empire’s current gender ratio was an alarming 1 to 79, and it was only getting worse. Under such dire circumstances, someone had the audacity to abandon a female. It was beyond disgraceful. 

In the medical pod, Nyx’s lashes fluttered, and then she slowly opened her eyes. Her head felt light and fuzzy. 

The sensation wasn’t new to her. Years of malnourishment had left her with severe hypoglycemia, and passing out had

She remembered that she was summoned home by her grandmother before she passed out this time. She came home straight from work, only to find out her family had arranged for her to marry a greasy and potbellied man who had a marriage before. 

Apparently, they’d already pocketed 150 thousand dollars as a wedding gift from that man. 

Nyx refused their arrangement, of course, but it was too late. Her family locked her in the house for a week with no food or 

no way out. 

Seeing she still didn’t compromise to register the marriage, they decided to ship her straight to the guy’s place and let him settle the matter himself.
