A/N: Well my fellow readers here is book three. Where we will be going through Kopa's rule and his cub's rule. So without further ado, here's chapter 1, enjoy!

Queen Kiara was a wreck, why she was pacing outside the cave. The young queen haven't been feeling feel lately and she don't know what it is.

"Haven't queen jitters?"

The pale golden lioness turned to see her mother in-law.

"Nala...what..."

"Please, I'm not here to harm...to help"

Kiara sighed and took deep breathes.

"Now tell me what's wrong"

Kiara sighed deeply, "I haven't been feeling feel lately. My stomach has been hurting and I been throwing up"

Nala smirked, "I think I know what's wrong. But have you seen Rafiki?"

Kiara shook her head, "No, why? Could it be that serious?"

"What could be that serious?"

Nala and Kiara looked and seen Kula.

"Kiara was just telling me...that she wasn't feeling well. I sudjested her go to Rafiki since it could be she's pregnant"

Kiara coughed, "Pregnant?"

Kula looked at her daughter and nodded.

"Well let's go to Rafiki!"

"All of us?" Nala asked

Kiara stopped and turned to the cream lioness. "Yes all of us"

Nala smiled warmly at the queen. She wants her to be apart of this special moment even when she tried to kill her. Nala got up and followed the queen and Kula to Rafiki. As luck would have it, the old baboon was under his tree talking to a young cheetah and a white dove who was perched on the cheetah's shoulder.

"Rafiki!" The queen called

Rafiki smiled, "Ah perfect timing my queen. I would like you to meet Duma, he's going to fill my place"

Yes that's right, Rafiki's time is coming to a short stop but at least he has someone to pass his lessons to. As for Duma, he's light golden with black spots and brown eyes.

"And the beautiful dove is Katie, she's filling in Zazu's place"

A few months after Kopa and Kiara took the throne old Zazu was caught by a leopard. As for Katie, she's white with royal blue tips on her wings and sky blue eyes.

"Now what can I do for you"

Kiara sighed, "I have a feeling I might be pregnant"

"Well lie down and I will see"

Kiara laid down and Rafiki went to work. Moving his hands over the queen's stomach. Soon he stopped when he felt a lump.

"Congratulations my dear. You are with cub."

Kiara beamed as she hugged the baboon. "I got to go tell Kopa"

With that the pale golden queen raced through the savannah.

-X-

Kiara arrived back at Pride Rock and found Kopa chatting with his father, Simba. "Kopa hi," Kiara said panting for breath.

"Hello yourself," Kopa said with a smile. After giving his Queen a nuzzle the golden King asked, "What's got you so out of breath?"

"I just ran all the way from Rafiki's tree," Kiara explained.

"Oh?" Kopa said arching an eyebrow. "So you finally took my suggestion eh? So what did Rafiki say was wrong with you?"

"Maybe I should leave you two alone," Simba said.

"No Simba please stay," Kiara said. "I want you to hear this as well."

"Are you sure?" Simba asked. The golden lion knew the look in Kiara's eyes. It was the same look Nala had when she was pregnant with Kopa and Amber.

"I'm sure," Kiara said with a smile. Then the pale golden Queen looked over at her golden mate and said, "Kopa there's going to be an addition to our family."

"There is?" Kopa asked. Kiara nodded and Kopa's amber eyes got wide as he realized what Kiara was saying. "You mean you're pregnant?"

"Yes Kopa," Kiara said barely able to contain herself. "I'm pregnant. Isn't this great?! We're going to have a cub!" Kopa just stared at his mate silently. After a couple of minutes Kiara said, "Kopa say something. You're worrying me. You are happy about this aren't you?"

"Happy?" Kopa whispered. "Ki' I'm more than happy. I'm thrilled! This is wonderful news! The lioness I love is having my cub! I am the happiest lion in the world!" With that Kopa pulled Kiara close to him and nuzzled her and licked her face. "I love you so much Ki'," Kopa whispered.

"I love you too Kop'," Kiara whispered.

"I am so happy for you two," Simba said after a couple of minutes. "This is a very happy time. A new generation is about to be born. You two should tell the others."

"You're right dad," Kopa said. "Come on Kiara let's go tell our Pride the good news."

With that the King and Queen went to inform the Pride of the upcoming Royal birth.
