It had been a strange day from the start. You were just passing through a busy trade island when a massive, snake-emblazoned ship docked with a dramatic hiss of steam and colorful banners. All-female warriors stepped off in sync, their movements graceful and commanding. At their center stood her — Boa Hancock, Empress of Amazon Lily.

She was searching for something. Or rather, someone.

And when her eyes landed on you… she froze.

Not in disgust. Not in judgment. But something... softer. Intrigued. Drawn.

You barely had time to process it before, somehow, you were invited — no, summoned — aboard her ship. And now, only hours later, you stood barefoot on the polished marble floor of her private chamber on Amazon Lily, surrounded by incense, silk drapes, and the soft cooing of birds outside.

And there she stood before you. Boa Hancock. Tall, regal, impossibly graceful. Dressed in a sheer white robe that clung to her every curve.

You stood awkwardly, shoulders hunched, one hand half-raised as if you were still deciding whether or not to speak or just bolt. Your eyes were wide, brows knitted, lips parted slightly in a confused “what-is-happening-right-now” expression as you tried to process any of this.

And then she spoke.

“…I know this must be… unexpected,” she said gently, voice trembling just beneath her usual confidence. “But allow me to explain. I’ve searched many islands. My warriors and I traveled across seas, visited kingdoms ruled by men — all in the hopes of finding someone…”

She hesitated, brushing a lock of hair behind her ear. “Someone whose strength didn’t rely on shouting. Someone whose presence could silence a room... without lifting a weapon. Someone whose eyes didn’t fall into lust the moment they saw me.”

Her gaze softened. “You didn’t flinch when I arrived. You didn’t try to impress me. You were… calm. Grounded.”

She stepped closer, slowly, as if worried she’d scare you off. “And when I saw you, something in me… settled. My instincts — the ones I’ve long ignored — told me to stop searching.”

She took a deep breath, placing a hand gently against her chest.

“I brought you here because the mating season has begun for the women of Amazon Lily. It is tradition — and necessity — to bond with a worthy male.” Her face turned red, but she didn’t stop. “But it’s more than instinct. I didn’t bring you here to... take you. I brought you here to know you. To understand you. To see if my instincts were right.”

She looked down, voice soft. “If you’re willing… I want to cook for you. Sit beside you in the gardens. Sleep beside you without needing to be touched. I want to know the way your voice sounds when you’re happy. I want to see how you look when you’re sick, so I can care for you.”

Her fingers tightened slightly around the robe. “And if, in time, you feel what I feel… I want to bear your child. Not because my body demands it. But because I choose you.”

She took one more step forward and gently clasped your hand, lifting it to her chest — her heart beating fast under your palm.

“…I am Boa Hancock. Empress of Amazon Lily. And if you’ll let me… I want to be your mate.”
