[Open] Enemy From Within

[Applejack]

Vitani nodded, looking up at Hakara as she leaned against him for support, panting slightly from the effort of walking so much on her paw. "You were right," she said softly. "It wasn't bad." She giggled and leaned up a little, licking his cheek lovingly. "Shall we keep this our little secret, or shall we share it?"

[KingKovu44]

Hakara smiled at her. "This is our secret, Vitani. No one else needs to know," he said.

[Applejack]

Vitani smiled as well, her purr deepening. "I dont know if I've told you enough since I've admitted it, but, I love you, Hakara. You really did find a way to bring me out of my shell."

[KingKovu44]

Hakara nodded. "I meant it when I said that I loved with all of my heart," he said. Just then, he saw Pride Rock in the distance. "Remember, it's our secret," he said.

[Applejack]

Vitani nodded once more, purring softly. "You're very good at it too," she replied, snickering. "I doubt it'll be a secret for long, though," she said. She looked at her belly, then back at him. "Is it.. bad that we did this? Is that why we can't tell anyone?"

[KingKovu44]

Hakara shook his head. "It's not bad, but it is a private matter that shouldn't be shared with others," he said.

[Applejack]

"I know THAT!" She exclaimed, chuckling. "I mean, if I should become pregnant!" She cuffed him lovingly on the side of the head, purring."

Haij was already out of the cave after he and Kiara had their private time, and was wandering the lands. He saw Vitani and the new rogue walking back to Pride Rock and followed the two. "Well, well, well," he called out. "You two had a good time?"

[Applejack]

Vitani turned her head and faced Haij with a smirk. "Wouldn't you like to know?" She shot back. Shaking her head, she turned her attention back to Hakara with a smile. "The best," she whispered.

He rolled his eyes. "You two aren't the only ones who might have cubs in the future."
