Keeping her eyes fixated upon Kivuli while her ears stayed glued to every word that Shani spoke, Zina took in all the information that her old acquaintance was revealing to her. By the looks of Kivuli, Zina knew that he wasn’t originally from around here, yet the fact that the king would entrust his own daughter’s, or adopted daughter’s, whichever the case may have been, safety to a relative stranger just helped to confirm that this pride was definitely more laid back than most she had ever encountered. Once Shani was finished speaking, the white furred Shaman gave a simple nod as she took a few steps closer to Kivuli, addressing the large male in a friendly tone.
”Well, it’s nice to meet you Kivuli. Any lion that can hold his own against Shani here, is a friend of mine.”
Adorning a sweet looking smile, Zina turned her full attention upon Kivuli, acting as though Shani was no longer even present, knowing that this would both bother and tease him at the same time. Circling around Kivuli a few times, her yellow orbs surveying every inch and every little detail about the grey furred beast in front of her, Zina seemed to look quite pleased by what she saw. Taking a seat in between the two males once she had satisfied her curiosity with Kivuli’s looks, Zina spoke up once again to Kivuli in a suggestive voice.
”Well, if the king of these lands trusts his own daughter to be alone with a male as handsome as you Kivuli, I suppose he must really have you on a very short leash, hmm? Or is there a wild side to that noble self of yours?”

Completely startled by Rahina’s voice as it suddenly broke the silence amongst their den, Kopa quickly averted his gaze from the entrance of the cave, even though he knew that his beloved lioness had already seen just what his eyes were focused upon. Looking quite ashamed of himself, yet still trying to act as though there was nothing out of the ordinary with his behavior, Kopa replied in a soft voice as he gently stroked Rahina’s sides with his fore paw.
”No, not at all my precious. I was just, erm, making sure that those other members of this pride outside weren’t going to cause any trouble for us. I heard some arguing and I would have, erm, gone outside and asked them to be quiet if they had gotten any louder. I didn’t want them to disturb your rest Hina, that’s all.”
Smiling sheepishly, Kopa leaned in to give Rahina a soft kiss over her muzzle lips, trailing his tongue over her cheek and up and around one of her adorable ears before lightly nibbling upon it. Purring pleasantly, Kopa whispered softly to her in a reassuring voice as his fore paws continued to lovingly caress his mate’s muscular body to try and coax her back to sleep.
”You know you’re the only lioness for me, don’t you Hina? I’d never even think about being with another lioness for as long as I live. You’ve done so much for me my precious and there’s no way I’d ever betray you, especially when you’re carrying my cub. I love you with all my heart Hina and that’s always how it’s going to be. Rest now, okay? The last thing you need to do is to stress yourself out over trivial issues like this.”
