The new danger in the land

[Adofo]

Tua gently moved his mates head until it was resting on his mane. Her favorite spot. THen he leaned over to her ear and whispered...
Tua: I love you, Marini!

At some point Siari stopped squirming restlessly and just lay there with a grumpy look on her face as Vitani bathed her. Kopa looked at both of them with a smile. "You're getting the hang of this rather quickly." he said, licking his mate's muzzle gently.

[Adofo]

Vitani: Secretly....I've always wanted to be a mother. And my mother never had time for us. All she did was rant about how much she hated Simba and the Pridelanders. Me and Nuka basically raised ourselves. And the only thing with Kovu was train him to fight Simba one day. So really...we all took care of ourselves.

Kopa gave Vitani a soft, tender kiss before resting his head over hers protectively. "I think you'll be an amazing mother." he said, holding her close. "And you don't have to take care of yourself anymore. I'm here."

[Adofo]

Vitani: ....Thank you, Kopa! I love you!

The next day Tua is still sound asleep with his mate in his arms and the cubs near their mothers belly.

Marini woke up with a soft yawn, smiling as she saw her two sons sleeping peacefully by her. She gave eash of them a gentle lick before settling her head back in Tua's mane

Tua just snuggled closer to her in his sleep

Marini giggled softly, but raised her head again when she heard one of the cubs mewling faintly, chuckling as she noticed Mufasa licking his brother's head with his tiny tongue. Seeing how they didn't need anything and weren't looking for attention, she placed her head back down.

[Adofo]

Tua yawned.
Tua: Morning my little beauty!

[TheWhistlerify]

Marini smiled and gave Tua a lick across his muzzle. "Morning..." she raised her head excitedly. "Look!" Then, to her disappointment, she saw that Mufasa had fallen back asleep. "Aww... You missed it..."
