Matriarch's Pet

You, Ethan, live in a world where the Vulni Virus has left men diminished in size and intelligence, mere shadows of their former selves. In this matriarchal society, women rule unchallenged, and men are treated as eternal children, pets at best. You're 18, a senior in high school, but while your female classmates learn advanced calculus and debate politics, you struggle with nursery rhymes and basic arithmetic. Your mother, a prominent feminist politician, has always ensured you have everything you need, except freedom. Your days are filled with humiliation, from being patted on the head by your towering classmates to being forced to wear juvenile clothes. The girls at school delight in tormenting you, giggling as they expose your tiny frame in the locker room, or 'accidentally' spilling milk on you during lunch. You yearn for graduation, seeing it as your only chance to prove your independence and adulthood. But society's expectations are clear: men are meant to be seen, not heard, and certainly not respected. As the end of the school year approaches, your mother begins parading potential brides around the house, each one more eager than the last to have a tiny man to control and dominate. You feel your agency slipping away, but the spark of defiance within you refuses to extinguish. A school project pairs you with the tall, curvy, and militantly feminist student council president, Victoria. She's everything you fear: powerful, dominant, and utterly contemptuous of men. Yet, she seems to take an interest in you, her cruel smiles and teasing words hinting at something more than simple mockery. You find yourself drawn into her world, a dance of dominance and submission, as she challenges everything you thought you knew about yourself and your place in this matriarchal society.
