Hello ladies and gentlemen, fellow Pridelanders and Outsiders. I have been talking to my friend, Guardiansaint and I got permission to rewrite her series, Broken Embraces.

Disclamier; I own nothing but a few Ocs, some belongs to Guardiansaint. Everything else to belongs to Walt Disney and Guardiansaint.

The sun had begun to rise from the earth, casting beautiful golden rays across the lush African serengeti. At the peak of priderock, that was known as the royal's castle, throne and home..one can see the shapes of two lions sitting while waiting for the upcoming royal birth.

"I can't believe it's finally happening." mumbled a large golden furred lion as he stood and began to pace. His movements stirred up his red mane.

A creamy brown pelted lion with a dark brown mane and greenish-blue eyes sat not far with a smile on his creamy muzzle.

"Muffy, calm down. Sarabi's a strong girl. The queen will be fine."

The king sighed, he knew that Nasiri was right but it still didn't end his worries.

Just then a grey mandrill walked out of the cave with a warm smile. The king's amber eyes lit up as he ran over.

"Rafiki! Is Sarabi okay? The cub?"

The sherman chuckled, "Ah, de queen an prince r fine an healthy, Mufasa."

Mufasa smiled, "Thanks Rafiki." before quickly running in the cave.

In the back of the small cave near the stone slope, laid a dark beige lioness with dark brown ear rims. In her paws was a small golden cub.

The queen looked up at her apporching mate and smiled. "Mufasa, come meet our son. Simba."

Mufasa beamed proudly at his son, the queen reached to nuzzle her mate but the golden lion pulled away.

Sarabi frowned but ignored it as one of her best friends since she came to the Pridelands walked in.

"Mufasa...sire?"

The king looked and seen a heavily pregnant pale brown lioness with pale brown eyes.

"Yes, Edina? What can I do for you? "

The pale brown lioness nodded before stating what she came for. "Sarafina just gave birth."

Mufasa frowned but forced a smiled, "What's the sex?"

"A girl, my liege. I also wanted to ask you someth-" Edina started but stopped when Mufasa turned back to his queen.

"Sarabi, I know who will be Simba's queen."

"Oh. Who do you have in mind?" Sarabi asked, already knowing the answer.

"Sarafina's daughter. Don't you think it's great?"

Sarabi smiled lightly, "Yeah...fantastic, love."

Mufasa looked at his son again and smiled before getting up and walked out of the cave.

Sarabi sighed as tears fell from her orange eyes.

"Rabi, you alright?"

The queen sniffed up some tears, "I'm fine. What did you want to say before?"

Edina looked down, "I wanted to ask, if I was to have a female can she be bethroled to the prince?"

Sarabi frowned, "Oh, I'm sorry."

"No. I should of known."

Sarabi sighed, fighting the erge to cry as Mufasa walked in with wide grin of his muzzle.

"It is settled. Sarafina's daughter, Nala is to be Simba's queen."

Sarabi and Edina shared a look, both knowing the true reason behind the bethrole.

A few weeks passed and as the sun was beginning to set, Mufasa was finishing up the last of his rounds. As the king began to head back to priderock, a azure blue hornbill flew over and panted, trying to regain his breathing.

"Zazu? Is something wrong?" Mufasa asked concerned in his amber eyes.

"Yes. A lioness is at the the border."

Mufasa nodded before turning and ran in the direction the lioness was, following his majordomo.

Not long after Mufasa reached the western border. There was a heavily pregnant creamy beige lioness.

The lioness smiled when her hazel eyes landed on the large lion but Mufasa could clearly see she was barely holding on.

"What's your name?"

"My name is Kalila and I need help..my cub's coming."

Mufasa gasped before he ran over and helped the lioness stand. Together they made the terk to priderock.

The journey was longer than the king expected but when they reached the top of the stoned slope, Mufasa was greeted by the the sight of Sarabi and a tawny-gold lioness helping Edina into the small cave near the slope.

"Atiya!"

The tawny-gold lioness moved her light green eyes from the two lionesses to the king and gasped when she saw the lioness by his side.

"Come with me. We'll help you."

Kalila nodded before slowly following Atiya into the cave.

Mufasa kept his eyes on the small cave entrance before turning his eyes on Nasiri, who was pacing nearby.

Mufasa chuckled before grinning. "You shouldn't pace like that. After all, Edina's a strong female. She'll be fine."

The creamy brown lion stopped and glared at the king, who now had a smirk on his muzzle.

"Not cool...Mufasa."

As the stars began to the shine, the hours creeping towards midnight, Queen Sarabi walked out of the cave with a tired but happy smile.

"Nasiri, you have two beautiful cubs."

Nasiri smiled before walking in the cave.

Sarabi turned to her mate. "Kalila wants you to meet her cub."

Mufasa headed in the cave and over to the creamy beige lioness that held a tiny white bundle of fur in her paws.

Mufasa rinkled his nose at the cub, who was looking up with purplish eyes. "She's white."

Sarabi grinned as she gazed adoringly at the white cub. "Isn't she beautiful."

Mufasa cleared his throated and nodded before heading over to where Edina laid with two cubs in her paws. One cub had a tawny pelt with brown eyes. The had a creamy brown pelt with pale green eyes.

"What are they're names?" Mufasa asked looking up from the cubs.

Edina smiled at her cubs before moving her pale brown eyes to the king, "The boy is Kono and the girl is Kula."

"They're wonderful, like you..love." Nasiri purred as he nuzzled his mate.

Mufasa smiled before he, Sarabi and Atiya left. Leaving the family alone and Kalila and her daughter, Mirari to rest.
