“Sir, I guess she’s right.” Said Dotty. “There is really unlike that queen would be an object of attack, especially under protection of my daughter.”

“Trainingsssssssss are dangerous.” Murmured Kauli. “And those alwaysssss were, with Angaa around and without.”

“Tetesi?” asked Kovu and looked into my eyes with serious question. He didn’t have to seek my opinion, but he did. He trusted me and I had to keep his trust for all cost. Or just pretend I was worthy of confidence.

“Sir, the safety of queen is the priority of pride and…” I stopped with previously prepared grimace. “Golden Pride… safety of Golden Queen.” I added quieter and suddenly burst with laughter. It was – of course – planned too. “My king, it seems that my training brought some results already… She talks like Golden Queen should.” I turned to Kiara. “Are you ready to defend yourself, ma’am?”="EN-GB">“But from now on it will change… We will go away from that blasted desert. With… Angaa… will you accept my cubs and become their father?” In spite of intense pain in neck, lion nodded his head with so decisive nod, that it almost was as he told: of course I will! “So we will leave this hell. I… hate Kovu, I hate Kiara and Tetesi. But I don’t want to get my revenge for price of your life. No more risk. I want you to live.”

“I will be all ri to us roars of mother, Danti and Kauta. Rouge instantly set off to retreat. I was yelling because of pain and anger. I knew that he failed to kill Kiara. And it was so close…

When I opened my eyes I was in Dried Oasis, surrounded by all my group. Cubs looked on me with fear and amaze, meanwhile mother and girls were trying to water Kiara and me. Queen was almost unhurt – he fainted more due to shock than chocking – but just in case she was treated like wounded. I had just few scratched, but that blow in my head was really painful. When I finally overcame dizziness I asked.

“Cubs?”

“All in place.” Replied my mother.

“Angaa…”

“He ran, when he saw us.” She said. “You were lucky, I could roar so loud.”

“Tetesi!” called Kiara and hugged me

“I am!” called lioness with enthusiasm then added with more pleading voice. “Kovu, please…”

“Haven’t you any objections, Tetesi?” again, king asked me.

“Of course I have!” I responded, still laughing. “But I’m not the queen. She is in charge now. I’m teaching her, but she is the boss here.”

“All right…” murmured Kovu. “But if you see anything suspicious, you…”

“Go back to Golden Cave and alarm the pride.” We called both with Kiara. Then she laughed too.

“I mean it, Kiara!” said king with decisive voice. “You are mother now and you are responsible not only for me, but also for Dhalimu. Don’t do anything stupid.”

She came closer to him and whispered to his ear. I heard it barely, only thanks to Zira’s senses-training, that I been subjected on Outlands.

“You sound like my father.” She said. “You are both unbearable. But don’t worry, I love you both.” Th="EN-GB">“But from now on it will change… We will go away from that blasted desert.

“He ran, when he saw us.” She said. “You were lucky, I could roar so loud.”

“Tetesi!” called Kiara and hugged me en she went back few steps and came to sleeping Dhalimu. She stroked head of cub and whispered something soft. This time I fail to comprehend it. “So, let’s go.” She turned to me.

In the same moment to cave came Lipizi and Jamaa. They were angry and tensed, more focused on themselves and their argument that on behaviour of pride. Instantly, even without any order, few sisters just pounced on and immobilised lion. What was really shocking, he didn’t resist.

“What!?” called Lipizi. “You want slash him for what Angaa tried?”

“Leave him.” Ordered Kovu.

“You highness, I had nothing to do with Angaa’s acts and I swear I wouldn’t raise my paw on your queen!” panted Jamaa with shivering voice. As far I know lion’s souls, he was right. Simple-hearted rouge was really shocked by events of morning.

“Should I beg you too for what I haven’t done?” asked Lipizi with poisonous tone.

“Shut up!” shouted Kovu. “Lipizi, go to your cubs and say nothing for your own good. Jamaa…” He turned to br="EN-GB">“But from now on it will change… We will go away from that blasted desert.

“He ran, when he saw us.” She said. “You were lucky, I could roar so loud.”

“Tetesi!” called Kiara and hugged me ownmaned and added with calmer voice. “No one is accusing you. We believe you, you proved you are honest. But… where is Chungu?”

“I don’t know, you majesty.” Said Jamaa, still bowing his head down.

“Do you think he is in league with Angaa?”

“I hope not, sir, but they are good friends…”

“Think, you two. I have one, but crucial question.” Said Kovu with angry voice. “Why the hell Angaa wanted to kill Kiara.”

“Because of his brother.” Replied Jamaa and Lipizi gasped with anger.

“Brother?” amazed king.

“Ghibu was his brother. You killed him, sir and that why Angaa could be mad.”

“WHAT!?” shouted Kovu. “Why haven’t you told me?”

“Why haven’t you asked?” smiled Lipizi.

“Let’s go, ma’am.” I whispered to Kiara. “King has to deal with it in his own way.”

When we were exiting the cave I still heard angry shouts behind me, but I didn’t care. Things had complicated a bit. So only Angaa and eventually Chungu was hunting on queen. Or on me, what was even more probable, but I any threat was good as cover for <accident> I planned for Kiara. So my task was harder then, however still easier
