"That is your choice there are plenty of young lionesses in court for you choose from. They are coming tomorrow so I want you to look your best," Claudius said.

The next day Lion-o was washed up by the servants and dressed in a fine suit. Lion-o sighed and walked into the garden and he saw a young lioness sitting on the edge of the fountain. She was pretty. She was sitting there and talking to her friend as she did her hair. "You look very beautiful Liosia." her friend said.

"Thanks but I don't like this," Liosia said.

"Why?' her friend asked.

"Mom would you say I'm spoiled rotten?" Lion-o asked.

"Where would you get an idea like that?" Leona asked.

"I was walking in the garden and I heard one of the ladies I was suppose to chose from say it." Lion-o said.

"Well son there are rumors going around about what you are like. But don't worry, they will soon see the real you rather then what they have heard." Leona said.
