[PRIVATE] Taming the Lioness's Heart

[VitanisMate]

Kujasuri said, "Yeah well I see you do not understand. I was not really interested in her or understanding her until she got out of her cub stage. You see I was not in love with a cub okay?"

===

The cub started to wake up over thier long conversation. He felt peace in the female's arms and started to lick her so that she may lick him. He felt like he was perfectly safe in his own little world in her paws.

@Nakisisa: "Hmph" she replied to Naki, headbutting him lightly on the forehead with her own. She looked around, and eyed the hunting party then back at Naki her eyes wandered. "Your choice," she looked at the king, "I can rough it".

She turned her body around to the hunters and then looked back at Nabu, "certainly, if they don't mind backing off of me from now on". She batted her eyes at the hunters.
==============================
@VitanisMate: "Say it ain't so" she sarcastically exclaimed, "I could never have guessed that after you battered her around when she was a cub" she spat, growling at him to back off.

Once she felt the cub lick her and she started licking him back. "Oh why must you be so cute, Ekwu?" She questioned the little fuzz ball.

Kujasuri sighed knowing she would bring that up. "Yes terrible okay! Not as terrible however from what those three sicko lions you saw would have done to me if I did not do what I did!"

===

The cub then felt a strange connection to the male creature. He went over there and tried to nuzzle him. Kujasuri looked dumbfounded on what to do never knowing a child's love before.

[Nakisisa]

"Ok lunch it is" Naki replied, turning to the king and pouncing him. "If you wernt my friend, you'd be scattered all across this land of yours, but since you are, we'll just have a antelope to go thanks" he said getting up.
---
For the first time in ages, the king felt nervous and his only reply was to the hunters "Hunters, Antelope Pronto." he said as the group ran off to get an antelope

((Night))

@Nakisisa: Upon seeing the hunters leave, she snorted and sat down, cleaning her fur. When she was sure they left, she stopped and looked around unsure of what to make of this new land she was in. Upon hearing the 'friendly threat' Naki made to the king, she smiled and giggled a little. How refreshing it was to hear someone like Naki making the rules over someone like Nabi. "Smooth" she told him

[Have a good sleep :3]
============================
@VitanisMate: "Not as terrible as your lips flapping and nothing useful coming out" she snapped at him. "Now lick your cub and cuddle Ekwu" she told him.

Grunge hesitated for a second. He could tell she wasn't happy, but didn't necessarily want to push her into telling him what was wrong. But in the interest of trying to make her feel better, he reluctantly opened his muzzle and said, What's wrong?, sitting next to the lioness quietly, waiting for her reply. He tried not to make a wrong move. He didn't want to upset her more than she already was.

@SnowyCheetah: "Nothing! You don't have to deal with my father!" She said back, getting up and walking away. She didn't want to talk about it, and none the less, she didn't want to talk about it with someone who she barely knew.

[SnowyCheetah]

Grunge flinched, realized he'd already pushed too hard. Sorry I wanted to h- he stopped himself to avoid sounding angry, then caught up with her. I'm sorry... I-I pushed too hard. You don't have to talk if you don't want to. I just want to help. After all, you led me to the Pridelands and you're kind of pre- he stopped again. He was going to tell Adeola she was pretty. In fact he thought she was outright beautiful. But he didn't want to scare her away. Changing the subject, he nervously said, The least I can do as thanks is to help you feel better, if it's within my ability.

@SnowyCheetah: The lioness narrowed her eyes at him and turned her head to look away. She knew he was about to tell her she was pretty, but he stopped himself before he had the chance. Good choice or she would have given him the old one-two. That was how it started, they acted like they were shy and didn't know how to talk to females. Then, the female would start to trust them and buy into their little act. And then to top the whole act off, they would leave and break the heart of the one they 'loved' when they found nothing more to pursue and they thought they had the chase done.

The chase was never going to be done for Adeola's heart. Never. And every male in the Pridelands knew it, and that's why the avoided her. And the ones who knew that steered clear of her way. Of course there was the ones who wanted to give her chase and accepted her like that, but then there was putting up with her attitude issue and how she took it out on all males that they were the same.

"Thanks, but no thanks" she replied in a hard, ice tone and layed down on the ground to wrap her tail around her legs and relax. She stretched out her limbs and roared out a low yawn.

Grunge sighed and walked a short distance away, lying down where he'd left his shirt. He folded it on top of his paws like a pillow, and rested his head on it. He could tell from the way Adeola acted that she had been hurt far too many times to have much, if any, trust in any male. He had deep feelings for the lioness and knew that if she got past her hard feelings, he'd be able to convince her that he was different than those before him. For now, he didn't want to bring up love or attractions. Thar second, he could tell she wasn't in a mood for him to bring up anything. But he had a feeling deep in his gut that he wanted her to be his mate - not just as a fling, but for life. Having never been loved before, or loved anyone, he was willing to do whatever it took to win over the lioness he had met only hours before, and had been thinking about ever since.
