Unending Love – A Kion And Maalum Love Story
SEASON 2, EPISODE 11: THE FIGHT

Maalum walks into the tree, sad and mad at the same time.

Maalum: Rani. We need to talk about Ki... What the...?!

He catches her and Azaad nuzzling each other.

Azaad: Oh... Hehe... Hello, your majesty.

Maalum: What?! *confused* What's going on here? Rani. Did you lie to me about Azaad?

Rani: Maalum. I'm sorry...

Azaad: Queen Rani and I are...

Rani: ...mates.

Maalum: You're what?!

At first Maalum gets shocked, but then he remembers about Kion and Makucha.

Maalum: *thinking* At least Azaad is a good guy.

Azaad: Yes. Azzad has left Fuli for this beautiful girl. *nuzzles Rani*

Maalum: *smiling* Honestly, I feel happy for you. Rani. You need more help with your pregnancy, since I can't stay with you all day. And Azaad. I like you. You're a nice cheetah and I believe you can take good care of my queen while I am out.

Rani smiles.

Azaad: Thank you, King Maalum.

Maalum: Please, Azaad. Just call me Maalum. *smiling*

Azaad: Understood, Maalum. Now, Azaad must go. There's a young mandrel who needs Azaad's help. *talking about Makini*

Maalum: Oh. Uh... Ok then. See you around, my friend.

Azaad: See you around. Mibinamet. *leaves*

Maalum: Heh. Rani. You surprised me. I wasn't expecting that. But... I think it's good for you to have another mate.

Rani: *smiling* I'm glad you accept my relationship with him.

Maalum: Of course I accept. *nuzzles her* Azaad is really nice and he seems to really care about you.

Rani: Heh... Well. I did take care of him after that "unexpected fall".

Maalum: It's great that you care about each other. Like Kion... *stops, now getting serious* Like Kion used to care about me. *lowers his head, very sad*

Rani: Maalum? What's wrong? *worried*

Maalum: *looking at her, disappointed* Rani. Kion... Kion betrayed us.

Rani: What? How? *confused*

Maalum: He... He was helping... Makucha. *now upset*

Rani: MAKUCHA!?!

Maalum: He was helping him after we both had told him that we don't want that monster here!

Rani: What the fuck is wrong with that stupid lion!!? *now angry*

Maalum: And that's not the worst.

Rani: Oh no...

Maalum: *now starts crying sad in anger* I caught them having sex. They're mates! Kion is in a relationship with... with that fucking monster son of a bitch!

Rani: WHAT. THE. FUCK!? *really angry* I'M GONNA KILL THAT DUMBASS LION AND THAT LEOPARD!!!

Maalum: Honey. Calm down, please. Be careful about your pregnancy. I sent Makucha away. I told him to go far far away from here.

Rani: *calms* You're right. I need to calm down. Being mad isn't good for the cubs.

Maalum: About Kion... *sighs* I know we should exile him for betraying us and put the kingdom in danger. But... I didn't have courage. I loved him for a long long time and... He saved me from Scar. He saved me from Makucha, what the fuck! *mad again*

Rani: Let's not exile him because Reirei told me that he is now her co-leader. I respect her and I think you do too.

Maalum: Yeah. *smiling* Reirei was like a mother to me and I'm starting to see her like that again. Besides, she's pregnant with Kion's cubs and... She needs him.

Rani: You're right about that, but I still can't believe he would do that. Especially with the way Makucha treated us.

Maalum: I... *sad* I broke up my relationship with him. He betrayed me with the guy who made me suffer so much. I can't be with someone who's defending a monster like Makucha.

Rani: Maalum... You know deep in your heart that Kion loves you. He probably made an honest mistake by fucking that monster.

Maalum: NO! Rani! Don't do that! I can't believe you're defending Kion. *upset*

Rani: I'm not defending him.

Maalum: Did you forget about what Makucha did to me? About what he did to you? To Reirei? We all suffered a lot with that son of a bitch and Kion just started dating him in secret! You think I can forgive him for that? I don't think so. And I think you should leave Kion too. He doesn't deserve our love. *really mad*

Rani: You're right! Fuck that lion!

Maalum: I hate him so much right now.

Rani: Me too.

Maalum: *sighs* Let's just forget about that traitor. Now I just need to stay with you, my queen. Your presence calms me. *nuzzles her*

Rani nuzzles back, purring.

Maalum: I love you so much, my queen. *purring*

Rani: I love you too, my King.

They kiss each other.

Maalum: *sharing tongue* Mmmm…

She does the same.

Baliyo: Sis? Maalum? You there?

Maalum: *breaking the kiss* Baliyo?!

Rani: Yes, Baliyo. Come in.

He walks in.

Maalum: Hey, Baliyo. *smiling* What's up?

Baliyo: Have you heard from Kion? I'm getting worried about him. We haven't had our "private time" in weeks.

Maalum: *upset* Don't worry about him. I'm sure he's enjoying his own "private moments".

Baliyo: *now upset* But I am worried about him. If you're not gonna tell me where he is, then I'll just leave.

Maalum: I don't know and I don't want to know where the fuck he is. *screaming upset, because he's sick of talking about Kion*

Baliyo: You know what!? FORGET IT! *runs out*

Rani: Baliyo!

He ignores her and goes to find Kion.

Maalum: *sighs* I shouldn't have talked to Baliyo like that.

Rani: I think you hurt his feelings.

Maalum: Maybe I should go talk to him and say sorry.

Rani: Yeah. Maybe you should.

Maalum: Yeah. I'll be right back, babe. *quick kiss*

Rani quickly kisses him back. Maalum leaves the Tree to go find Baliyo.

Meanwhile, Kion arrives at the jackal's farm and Goya talks to Kion with a big smile.

Goya: I think my mother already realized who you really are. Today you will leave my family alone. Finally.

Kion: What the hell are you talking about?

Goya: You will see. *keeps smiling*

Kion: Whatever. *goes to Reirei*

While he's walking, Goya says:

Goya: And King Maalum will exile you from the kingdom for what you did.

Kion ignores him and walks into the den.

Kion: Reirei. We need to talk.

Reirei: *looks at him seriously and a little sad* You're right, Kion. We really need to talk.

Kion: Yeah… *a little confused*

Reirei: Why?

Kion: Why what? *more confused*

Reirei: Why didn't you tell me you were helping Makucha? *sad, mostly disappointed*

Kion: He told me that he's a good leopard. I'm already upset about it because my stupid ex boyfriend walked in on me and Makucha. *still angry*

Reirei: So it's true? You and Makucha are... You know. Mates? *calm, serious, a little sad*

Kion: Yeah... I finally saw the good in him, but I remembered what he did to you, Rani and Maalum. *starting to cry* And if you want me out of the pack, then I'll leave. *crying hard*

Reirei: *keeping calm* Kion. You know what I want?

Kion: What? Leaving the pack? I might as well leave the Tree of Life...

Reirei: I believe in you and if you say he's good now, I can accept your relationship. But you know we lost our babies last time because of him and I'm pregnant again. I don't want to lose our babies this time. So I only have a request.

Kion: A request?

Reirei: I want you to keep Makucha away from me. At least for a while.

Kion: Ok. Can I tell you something?

Reirei: Sure.

Kion: I still wanna marry Maalum, but I know that the wedding isn't gonna happen. When he saw me and Makucha together, we had an argument over that leopard. Makucha even TRIED telling him that he's good now, but he doesn't believe it. I... I just want Maalum to accept my relationship with Makucha... I... I want my fiance back, but now I don't think that'll ever happen. *crying even harder*

Reirei: Kion. I trust you more than everyone. And I love you probably more than I love myself. You can count on me for everything. *nuzzles him*

Fuli: *walks in* Kion? Reirei? Are you ok?

Reirei: *stops nuzzling Kion* Hi, Fuli. Kion is sad because of Maalum and the situation about Makucha.

Fuli: Really? 

Kion: Yeah...

Fuli: Kion, I hate seeing you like this. Tell you what. Reirei and I will talk to Maalum and Rani and try to convince them to accept Makucha.

Reirei: Yeah. Kion. Listen. I told you I want Makucha away from me and I still want that. But that's only to protect our cubs. But if you say Makucha is different, I believe in you. And Maalum will believe in you too.

Kion: Thanks, you two. *smiling*

Fuli: You're welcome, my love. *smiling*

Reirei: *surprised* Your what?

Kion: Reirei. Fuli and I are mates now.

Reirei: Another mate?

Kion: Yup. 

Fuli: Oh! Kion. I saw Baliyo outside of the pass talking to Makucha.

Kion: Oh no... I hope they don't fight.

Reirei: You saw if they were angry?

Fuli: I couldn't tell.

Reirei: Kion. You think they can fight?

Kion: Possibly. Baliyo is Rani's brother.

Fuli: Then you'd better go to them and see what's going on.

Reirei: You want me to go with you, honey?

Kion: Sure.

Reirei: Ok. Oh. And don't forget we still have to talk with the pack about your new position.

Kion: I know.

Fuli: You didn't tell the pack yet?

Kion: Not yet.

Reirei: We can do that later. Now we better go.

Kion: Ok. Come on, Reirei. *nuzzles Fuli* I'll see you later.

Fuli: *nuzzles back* I'll be waiting.

Kion and Reirei leave the farm together and Goya is surprised.

Goya: What the hell?

They go outside the pass.

Kion: There they are.

Makucha: *surprised* Kion? And... You?

Reirei: Yeah. It's me. Reirei.

Baliyo: How did you know we were out here?

Kion: Fuli saw you.

Reirei: Is everything okay?

Makucha: Everything's fine. We're just talking. Right, Baliyo?

Baliyo: Right. *smiling*

Reirei: Makucha. You're really different.

Makucha: Yeah. I'm so sorry for everything I did to you and... to everyone. Baliyo already forgave me. I hope you can forgive me too. *sad*

Reirei: *smiling* Well. Since Kion trusts you, I can trust you too. Besides, I know how hard it can be changing sides.

Makucha: Thanks, Reirei. *sad again* I want to live in the Tree Of Life. I want to stay in peace and forget about my dark past. But the king and the queen will never accept me.

Baliyo: I don't know what's gonna happen because I tell my sister everything, but I don't know if I should tell them about this because Maalum snapped at me. *sad*

Kion: What!? He snapped at YOU!?

Baliyo: Yeah... He hurt my feelings.

Reirei: Maalum isn't like that. He's not right.

Baliyo: I know right. Maybe we can bring them out here to Makucha to prove that he's changed.

Kion: How are we gonna do that?

Makucha: Please don't. If you bring Maalum here, he will probably kill me.

Baliyo: Ok, Makucha.

Reirei: Kion. Let me talk to him with Fuli, like we had planned.

Kion: Alright, Reirei.

Reirei: And Baliyo. Don't tell anyone about Makucha. Your sister and Maalum will be really mad.

Baliyo: I promise. I just don't want to see Maalum right now.

Makucha: Thank you all for your help. It's really good to know that you are my friends. *smiling*

Kion: You're welcome, Makucha. *smiling*

Reirei: I'm glad you changed, Makucha. *smiles*

Makucha: But now I think you should go before the king or the queen finds you are out.

Kion: Right. Come on, guys.

The three walk back inside. Baliyo goes to his den.

Then, Kion's walking with Reirei.

Reirei: Don't worry, Kion. I believe soon everything will be fine. Until there, you know I'm always here for you. *nuzzles him*

Kion: *nuzzles back* Asante, Reirei.

Maalum: *appears* Hey, Reirei.

Reirei: Oh. Hi, Maalum.

Kion: Hey, Maalum. *looks away*

Maalum: *upset* I don't talk with a monster lover. I'm here to talk with Reirei.

Kion: Whatever...

Maalum: Reirei. Did you see, Baliyo?

Reirei: I think he's in his den.

Maalum: Thanks. By the way, I think you should be careful about that lion by your side.

Reirei: What?!

Maalum: He's helping and fucking the monster that killed your babies.

Kion: *stays quiet, but thinks* SHUT. THE. FUCK. UP!!

Reirei: Maalum. Listen. I know everything that happened.

Maalum: You know?! And you're still with that traitor?

Reirei: Maalum. Makucha has really changed. You have to believe us.

Maalum: *mad at Kion* You son of a bitch. You convinced Reirei!

Kion: *snaps* YOU KNOW WHAT!? I'M GLAD SHE'S CONVINCED BECAUSE I WOULD'VE BEEN EXILED AND LIVING ON MY OWN IF IT WASN'T FOR HER SUPPORT!!!

Maalum: OH YEAH? IF YOU'RE SO HAPPY WITH HER WHY DON'T YOU MARRY HER? YOU'RE PERFECT FOR EACH OTHER!

Reirei blushes a little, but she's worried about them.

Reirei: Guys. Please. Calm down.

Kion: *gets closer to him, still furious* MAYBE I'LL TAKE THAT OFFER, BUT I DON'T WANNA SEE YOUR BITCH ASS THERE!!!

Maalum: *also closer to him* GREAT! BUT YOU HAVE TO MARRY AWAY FROM THE TREE BECAUSE I DON'T WANT TO SEE YOUR UGLY FACE! AND MY ASS ISN'T FOR YOU, BITCH!

Reirei: Please. Stop.

Kion gets so mad that he ends up scratching Maalum's face.

Maalum: Aaaah! *really mad* I will kill you. *jumps and pins him down, fighting*

Kion kicks him off.

Maalum: Aah! *looking at him with anger* I hate you!

Kion: I HATE YOU!!! *looking at him in anger*

Maalum: I can't believe we were mates. You're lucky she's pregnant. I could roar you out of my lands right now!

Kion: Get away from me before I fucking KILL YOU!!!

Maalum: *rubbing his face on the scratch because it hurts* I will make you pay for this. *turns his back on him, walking away*

Kion: *looks at Reirei* What have I done? *his legs are shaking*

Reirei: Oh honey. *hugs him* You both were angry. You both said and did things you didn't want to.

Kion hugs back, crying.

Reirei: There, honey. Don't cry. *nuzzles him* I'm here for you. I'll always be with you. *licking his cheek*

Kion: If I still had the Roar, I would've killed him… I'm a monster...

Reirei: Shhh. No. Don't say that. You were mad. You didn't know what you were doing. You're not a monster. You're the sweetest and kindest lion in the world. *smiling completely in love with him*

Kion: *looks at her loving eyes* I am?

Reirei: Of course you are. You're really amazing. You helped a lot of animals and you still try to help. You're always ready to help the others, even if that can put you in danger. I am completely in love with you and you know I don't love anyone like I love you. And I am sure you will be a great father.

Kion: *smiles and kisses her* Thanks, Reirei.

Reirei: *kisses back* You're the only one I want by my side. My biggest true and only love. *kisses back passionately*

Azaad saw EVERYTHING that happened.

Azaad: Azaad needs to talk to Makucha. *goes away*

After the kiss…

Reirei: Kion. You think you're fine to go talk with the pack?

Kion: Yeah, I'm fine.

Reirei: Let's go then. *thinking* That talk about marriage... Was he talking the truth?

Kion: Ok, my love.

After a while, Makucha is outside and Azaad goes there.

Azaad: Makucha, is it?

Makucha: Yeah. *curious* Who are you?

Azaad: I am Azaad. It is nice to meet you. *smiling*

Makucha: Nice to meet you too, Azaad. *smiling* So... What do you need?

Azaad: Azaad needs to tell you something that just happened between Kion and Maalum.

Makucha: *worried* Oh no. What happened this time?

Azaad proceeds to tell Makucha about the conversation that turned into an argument that turned into a physical fight.

Makucha: *really worried* Oh no. I need to do something.

Azaad: We both do. But for now, that female jackal has it under control. Her and Kion are talking as we speak.

Makucha: That's good. Reirei seems to really care about Kion.

Azaad: Yes. She really does.

Makucha: Azaad. Can I make you a request?

Azaad: A request? What is it?

Makucha: Keep an eye on them. Let me know about what's happening inside. I'll be right here, waiting for news.

Azaad: Azaad will do that. Don't worry.

Makucha: Thank you, Azaad.

Azaad: You're welcome, Makucha.

Makucha: I think I can call you friend now. *smiling*

Azaad: Same here. *smiling*

Makucha: It's really good to have so many friends, don't you think?

Azaad: Yes. Azaad knows exactly what you mean. *remembering about that day when he met Fuli in his old territory*

Backing inside, Kion walks into the farm with Reirei.

Reirei: Kion. Wait right here. I will call the pack.

Kion: Ok, Reirei. *sits*

After she leaves, Goya goes to Kion, not so happy.

Goya: I don't know how, but it seems you convinced my mother to let you stay here.

Kion: *thinks* Oh no. Not this guy again. Yeah, I know.

Goya: How can she accept you, knowing that you had sex with the leopard that hurt us?

Kion: How did you know that?

Goya: *nervous* I... I heard about that. *weak smile*

Kion: What!? *thinks for a moment* Were you spying on us!!?

Goya: I... I... *now serious, revealing* I only did what I needed to show my mother you're not good for her.

Kion: Heh... Well. It clearly didn't work. Your mother loves me more than she loved your father.

Goya: Grrrr. That's not true! My father was her love before you ruined their relationship and killed my father! You're a murderer.

Kion: I don't want to argue with you anymore, but I love your mother with all my heart. If you don't respect me, I will kick you out of the pack myself!

Goya: Do that and my mother will kick you out. I'm her son. She won't forgive you. *smiles* Talking about kicking out... why the hell are you still at the Tree Of Life? I told the king you were in that cave. He was supposed to exile you.

Kion: I had an argument that turned into a fight with him, but he knows that your mom is pregnant, so he isn't kicking me out.

Goya: No. Not again. She can't be pregnant with you. *he didn't know*

Kion: Yeah. I'm gonna be a better father than that dipshit of a father Goigoi was. Your brother, Dogo, loves and respects me. So you should do the same.

Goya: Dogo is weak. And you stop talking like that about my father! *runs to Kion, ready to bite him*

Kion dodges it.

Goya: You'll never be as good as my father.

Kion: Heh... We'll see about that.

Goya's ready to attack. Reirei appears, not noticing they're arguing.

Reirei: Kion. Goya. You're talking like father and son, I hope.

Kion: Reirei. Your son tried to attack me.

Reirei: What?! Goya!

Goya: No. That's not true.

Kion: It is true! Don't start lying to your mother, Goya!

Reirei: Goya. Why? *disappointed*

Goya: He keeps insulting my dad! He betrayed you with Makucha. He doesn't like me. You can't be mates with him.

Kion: She already knows about Makucha, plus you don't like me! *to Reirei* I'm trying to convince him to trust me, but I can't get through to him.

Reirei: Goya. Listen to me. I love Kion. He's the love of my life, my biggest true love. I love him more than I ever loved anyone, even more than I ever loved Goigoi. Kion is kind, sweet, friendly, brave, smart... He's perfect. I trust him more than anyone and I know he will be a great father, even better than Goigoi was. Plus he will be co-leader of our pack, so you need to respect him twice: as your leader and your father.

Goya: *sad* I see you will never change your mind.

Reirei: I won't. Kion is who I want by my side for the rest of my life.

Goya: *to Kion* And you? You won't say anything?

Kion: I'm just letting you two talk this through. I really do want to be your father, Goya.

Goya: I don't care about that. I just want to know your real intentions. What do you feel for my mother? What's your plan for your relationship?

Kion: I... I wanna marry her. *looks at Reirei*

Reirei: *looks at him, surprised* You what?! *blushing a little*

Kion: Yes, Reirei. You've helped me so much, especially when Maalum and I fought earlier. I love you so fucking much.

Reirei: *crying a little with joy* I... I... I don't know what to say.

Kion: Reirei. Will YOU marry me?

Reirei: For all the jackals, yes. Yes, Kion! That's the best thing I heard today! *kisses him passionately*

Kion kisses back passionately. Goya is watching that with a big smile.

Reirei: *breaks the kiss* I thought you had said that to Maalum because you were angry. But you... You really want to marry me.

Kion: Yes. I really do want to marry you.

Reirei: Kion. Nothing would make me happier. I really want to share my life with you. You are the best and the only one I want.

Kion's smiling big.

Reirei: We can marry whenever you want, honey.

He kisses her cheek. She giggles and shakes her tail with joy.

Goya: Why don't you marry tomorrow?

Kion: What do you think, Reirei?

Reirei: I just want to marry you. You decide.

Kion: *looks at Goya* Yes. We'll marry tomorrow.

Reirei: Oh my love! *jumps to Kion, licking his face*

Kion starts purring.

Goya: *smiles* I'm sorry, Kion. You really love my mother. I'm so sorry for everything I did and said.

Kion: Apology accepted, Goya.

Goya: It's still hard to see you as a father, but... I think I can try. *smiling*

Kion: That's all I expect from you. *smiling*

Reirei: Kion. Honey. The pack is waiting. Time to tell them the news. And we can add our marriage to the list.

Kion: Oh! Right.

Kion and Reirei go to a flat rock.

Reirei: Jackals. You all know Kion is my mate, but now he's also part of our pack. Kion will be your co-leader. So, from now on, he will rule the pack with me. *whispering to him* Maybe you should say some words to them?

Kion: Jackals. As co-leader, I will help you all with everything you need.

Dogo: *smiling big at Kion* I know you will be a great leader, dad.

Kion: *smiles at Dogo* Thanks, son.

Reirei: *smiling* But Kion won't be only my mate and your leader. He's already a father to my children. And soon our family will be bigger. Because I'm pregnant with Kion's cubs.

All the jackals show a surprised face, but they're happy to see their leader Reirei happy.

Reirei: And there's more. After tomorrow morning, Kion will be my husband! *smiles passionately at Kion*

Kion smiles passionately at her.

Reirei: The wedding will take place here and it will be a traditional jackal wedding! *to Kion* If you don't mind doing it that way, honey. I don't want to do anything you don't want to.

Kion: Of course I don't mind. *nuzzles her*

Reirei: *nuzzles back and then talks again to the jackals* So I hope you all accept Kion. He's part of our pack and he is now family. He's really important to me. I love him more than I ever loved anyone and I want you to respect him.

Goya: I respect him. I'm giving him a chance to show us we can really trust him.

All the jackals are happy to see Kion with Reirei.

Reirei: Thank you for trusting us. Now you can go and don't forget to come to our wedding tomorrow morning.

The jackals start leaving and Reirei looks at Kion with a very happy face.

Reirei: They like you, honey. They really like you.

Kion: *smiling big* Yeah, they do.

Reirei: You're really amazing. I can't describe how I am feeling right now. You're everything to me, Kion. *super happy and totally in love with him*

Kion hugs her.

Reirei: *hugs back* I can't wait to be officially your wife. *kisses his cheek*

Kion: Same here, my sexy jackal. *kisses her cheek*

Reirei: Oh I would love to have some fun with you, but... Now we can't do that.

Kion: Yeah, you're pregnant.

Reirei: Not that. The pregnancy is still in the beginning. It's just... We're gonna marry and our jackal tradition says we can't have sex on the night before our wedding day. And we can't sleep together tonight. So... 

Kion: Oh... So where am I gonna go?

Reirei: I don't know. You can't stay with Maalum because... You know. Maybe one of your friends can share his den with you?

Kion: I'll talk to Bunga.

Reirei: Okay, honey. I'm sorry. But... We can't break the rules. They say that can give us bad luck at the wedding and we don't want that.

Kion: It's okay. *nuzzles* If that's how you jackals do it. Then I respect it. *smiling*

Reirei: *big smile* You're always ready to respect everything and everyone. That's one of the many things that makes me love you more and more and more... *getting closer for a kiss*

Kion does the same. Reirei kisses him, sharing her tongue.

Kion: Mmmmm~

Reirei: Mmmmm... *hugs his neck, keeping kissing*

Kion does the same.

Reirei: *lays him down, keeping kissing* Mmmmm…

Kion: Mmmmm... *purring*

Kion feels her pussy touching his dick.

Kion: Ohh Reirei~

Reirei: Kion. *keeps smiling passionately*

Kion: It's getting dark, honey.

Reirei: *quickly jumps out of his body, worried* Oh no. You better go now. I can't resist you and... We have the rules. We... Just go.

Kion: Alright. Goodnight, my love. *smiles and leaves the farm to find Bunga*

Reirei: Goodnight, my sexy future husband. *smiling completely in love*

Meanwhile, Maalum walks into the tree, totally upset.

Maalum: I will make him pay!

Rani's worried, watching the scratch on his face.

Rani: Maalum?

Maalum: Sorry, Rani. I didn't find Baliyo. But I found that stupid traitor! He attacked me!

Rani: WHAT!?

Maalum: I saw him with Reirei and he convinced her to accept Makucha! And... He wants to marry Reirei now! *crying sad and upset* I hate him! I fuckin hate him!

Rani: Oh Maalum. *hugs him* What happened next?

Maalum: *hugs her, crying* We had a fight. He said he could kill me. He wants to kill me. *now mad* But I won't let him do that. If he tries something against me, I will roar him out of these lands forever!

Rani: Calm down. I hate Kion and Makucha just as much as you do.

Maalum: Please. Promise me you will never accept Makucha and you will never forgive that stupid lion.

Rani: I promise.

Maalum: Thanks, my queen. *nuzzles her*

Rani: *nuzzles back* You're welcome.

Maalum: Can... Can I sleep here tonight? I miss you and... I can't go back to the farm after everything that happened.

Rani: Of course, my king.

Maalum: Asante. *laying next to her* You're my biggest love. My number one.

Rani nuzzles him, purring. Maalum purrs and licks her cheek. She blushes.

Maalum: I can't wait to see our babies. I will try to be more present from now on, my love.

Rani: Me too. *smiling*

Maalum: You will be a great mother. *kisses her*

Rani: I know I will. Because I have a great king by my side. *kisses back*
