A Stone's Precious Offering [Private]

[CheetahCat]

Carefully eying a nearby stone to occupy his scared thoughts, Mohatu wasn't aware that Tama was making her way beside him as he prolonged a courageous demeanor. Trying his best to stay positive during their moment of silence, the young prince unanticipatedly felt Tama snuggle herself against his much larger structure. Shocked and in disbelief, Mohatu didn't budge, alternatively, he remained perfectly still as Tama's tiny, furry head found its way underneath his scruffy chin, making him feel more relaxed as the sense of fear he was experiencing earlier began to leave hastily out of his perceptive thoughts. Coming to enjoy Tama's sensitive nature, Mohatu felt a tingling sensation within his little tiny tummy, something he had never experienced before as he felt his dark furred cheeks burn up scorching hot. Eying over the young lioness intensely to admire her adorable physique and innocent furry face, a deep, rumbling purr emanated from Mohatu's throat as he returned those loving nuzzles of his own, not caring if anyone was watching them by this point. All that mattered to him now was Tama and her well being.

After a few minutes of demonstrating his endearing side, the young prince felt Tama back off as her sweet, affectionate voice shattered their long pause of silence. Confused by her sudden shift in position, Mohatu eyed his friendly companion and concentrated on her apologetic voice as he seated up more elevated to look more regal like his vigorous father before replying in a reassuring voice, making a effort to help ease Tama's well being so she wouldn't feel remorseful.

"It's okay, Tama. I actua-- actually enjoyed our particular moment there. You don't have to apologize to me, I don't feel bothered whatsoever. You absolutely made me feel more happier inside, to the point where I'm all tingly. I don't know what they are, but it seems I only experience these tingly feelings whenever you come close to me. I have no idea what they mean, but I'm beginning to like the sensation. It makes me feel happy inside."

Falling silent after his candid response, gazing deeply into the young lioness' eyes, Mohatu inevitably smiled much bigger as a new set of feelings were building up inside of him. The wonderful tingling sensations he experienced earlier were remigrating deep within his tiny stomach, causing sheer happiness to engulf the young prince's senses as he ascended up on all fours. Before he can openly share these reappearing emotions with Tama, the much larger lioness made her way in between both cubbies, separating them from engaging into another romantic occasion.

A little irritated by this abrupt interference, Mohatu glanced up at the formidable lioness with his sand-brown orbs, listening intently to her inquiry regarding where he'll like to stay. A bit taken back from this question, the young male had completely forgotten about his royal parents and knew there was a set curfew for him to come home. Not wanting to leave Tama alone by herself, Mohatu cleared his throat and replied in a friendly fashion.

"Is it okay for me to stay here with you and Tama tonight, miss...? I don't feel like leaving this cave anytime soon I really want to know Tama a lot better. It's too rainy and foggy outside so I don't think we'll be able to make it back at Pride Rock. When morning dawns tomorrow, can you follow me home to Pride Rock and tell my parents what happened? I don't think they will mind, but they're going to be worried sick about me because I have a curfew. They're expecting me to come home when the sun reaches the horizon... I just don't know how to inform them... Unless..." Mohatu's voice trailed off for a moment as he thought of a better idea. Despite the heavy fog outside, he knew it was best to go home, no matter how unpredictable the weather may be. Gathering up his thoughts, the young prince smiled warmly and resumed speaking, inquiring his own thoughts about the issue. "I think all three of us should head back to Pride Rock. My parents are really friendly and I'm sure they will have a place for you two to stay. How does that sound?"

Directly after his inquiry, Mohatu glanced over to Tama and gazed into her innocent eyes. Although they only just met, the young prince was already falling for this particular young lioness and anticipated for her to follow him home so they can continue their personal time together and hopefully, know much more about one another.

Tama smiled and her cheeks blushed a hot red as she licked his cheek one more time. Her warm, smooth body rubbing against his. She heard his words and considered it for a moment. She had tingly feelings as well! Her whole body vibrated and her legs became shaky as she pondered it for a moment. What could these feelings mean? What was it telling her? She had never encountered them before, bus she was certain that she would love to do it again. Tama quietly replied,

"I-I felt it too. I li-i-ke it too." Her eyes glanced at the floor as Mohatu looked at her. "I also felt that. You say that every time I come near you you feel tingly? That doesn't happen with me, but I feel....happy."

Her beaufiul soft eyes gazed into his as she smiled warmly. Her front paw daintly lifting up.
Mvua looked at the cub and smiled. Although her whole body was quavering with rage, she still smiled sweetly.

"That's fine. Are you sure that your parents won't mind?"

Her kind smiled turned to one of deep concern as she patted Mohatu's head gently. Tama gazed into her mother's eyes. Pondering what her odd mother could be thinking. She bet she knew. Although Tama never knew about her mother's plan for power, she guessed that she was mostly concerned about the rain. Tama chuckled softly as she imagined her mother standing out in the rain soaked with a gruff expression on her face.

Upon hearing Mvua's concerning voice regarding his inquisition, Mohatu flashed the large lioness a warm smile as he remained attentive to her speech. After her sweet sounding tone came to a cease, the young prince stepped forward, replying in a affable tone.

"I'm pretty sure my parents won't mind at all. They do expect me to come home soon, so if we're going to leave for my home, we should go now before it get's too dark."

Directly after his response, the young prince glanced over to Tama. Staring undeviatingly into her innocent eyes, he advanced forward, closing the distance between both cubbies. Coming to a sudden stop in front of Tama now, Mohatu smiled fondly and leaned in to return those affectionate licks from earlier, running his tiny, raspy, pink, feline tongue across the shy lioness' furry golden cheeks, speaking in between licks affectionately.

"When we go over to my den Tama, I promise to protect you from anyone who may cause harm to you. My dad has taught me how to defend myself so I'm capable of dealing with smaller lions and lionesses. Once we arrive at Pride Rock, I'll tell my parents about you and your mother, how you two saved me from getting lost. My parents are very friendly. They will most certainly allow you and your mom to stay in our cozy cave for a few nights."

Giving one last lick over Tama's already moist cheek, Mohatu took a step back and gestured a fore paw to signify Tama to follow him as he turned around, making his way over to Mvua in high spirits. When both cubbies were a few paws length from where Mvua positioned herself, the young prince came to a unhurried stop, eying up at the enormous lioness' furry face. Feeling a little intimidated by her sheer size, Mohatu's high spirited nature transitioned into a more frighten one as he gulped silently. Averting his attention away from Tama's mother, the frighten cub mustered enough courage to enlighten Mvua that they were now ready to head over to Pride Rock as he spoke in a uncomfortable voice.

"We-We're ready to leave whenever you're ready, Miss Mvua. Once we head outside, do you think you can lead the way for us? You're a lot stronger than me and Tama, so I think it's best for you to be first. Once we arrive to my home, I'll tell my parents about you and Tama. When they hear about you two saving me from this thunderstorm, they won't have a choice but to offer you two a place to stay. They're very friendly felines."

Finishing up his speech, Mohatu glanced over to Mvua once more as he forced a intimate smile, pondering if the large lioness was ready to depart.

[LadyAnette]

Mvua's mouth curled into a smile as her plan yet was working even more. The two young cubs were definately falling in love! Her eyes shined and she clawed the ground in anxiety as she waited for the cub to say something. However, it took her a few seconds to realize that Mohatu was waiting for her to say something. She shuffled her paws nervously and continued.

"I'm sorry, dear. I thank you for your hospitality." She noticed his last statment and hurridly told him, "It's alright, sweety. I won't hurt you." She chuckled as she continued, "Haha. I'm sorry I'm intimidating. Can't help your true nature eh?"

Mvua gave him a quick pat on the head and slowly lifted her foot as she left the scene, her feet pit-pattering on the wet rock softly. Tama noticed that Mohatu was liking her as well and capturing the moment of warm, soft, wet licks on her cheeks stopped her heart. She nuzzled him gently as she licked him one more time back. Tama had heard of mating before from her mother. She was greatly intrigued from it, however, she never really wanted to. But her mother, Mvua, had said that if you fall in love, you must. Realizing this, she backed away from Mohatu a step, before changing her mind and nuzzling him once more. It wouldn't matter anyway, savor the moment. Tama gave him a shy glance and slowly following her mother as she looked back at him in mid-step.

"We should be going, Mohatu." Her eyes lowered, making her even more beautiful as she turned around and walked away.
