I want to thank LuffyMarra and Tasha101 for their message and review thank you guys.
Edit: fixed chapter 2
Shock. That was the only word that came into Kyra's head. Oh and saddens and depression can't forget those either.
According to the maids the queen went into labor unexpectedly. She was 2 weeks early and no one could contact a doctor on time and the only one they could get a hold of was a whole town away. The queen has been dead for 2 weeks now and those feelings keep not only Kyra but everyone else down and glum
At the moment Kyra stood in the corner of the throne room holding Tygra. King Claudus was talking to Jaga while he held the newborn cub closely in his arms as though it was all he had left.
Throughout the whole conversation Kyra was getting tired of the glances she was getting. She knew what they were talking about. Jaga most likely thinks someone older then a teenager and has fighting experience would be better at taking care of the new cub and the young tiger. That or its Claudus …it's hard to tell from where she's standing.
She felt a tug on her hair well more like a yank and she grunted. Looking down at the young prince she saw that Tygra was staring at the bright blue bead clipped in her hair.
"You want that huh?" thankfully the bead was thick so if he did chew on it he won't choke. She slipped it out of her hair handing it to the waiting cub that went straight to chewing it. "Yeah….you can have it."
"Kyra come here I have a job for you." Kyra looked up at the sound of the old cleric's voice. She swiftly walked over and up the few steps to the thrown where he was standing.
"As you know Eden is no longer here to give the proper care needed for lion-o." he paused making sure she was one the same page as him. "So that means we need someone to replace that missing role understand?"
"Me sir?" Kyra pointed at herself. She looked at the cleric than the king and back to the cleric. "But um…I don't think I can…um feed him." A small but noticeable smile came across the clerics face. But Claudus remained silent not an inch of happiness in his face.
"That is taken care of the rest is up to you." Claudus said. "You do well with Tygra and have been loyal to be for the year you've been here don't let me down"
"But it's been only a year don't you think your trusting me to soon?" Kyra asked if she were to describe it she would say it felt like a ton of iron bars were dropped on her head.
"It may seem like much but if you were here long before the birth of lion-o you'd be surprised at how many nannies left in the week. They couldn't handle Tygra." Kyra looked at Jaga with a confused look.
"Tygra's hard to handle he seems easy to Me." Tygra tossed the bead at her head. "Most of the time."
"And that's why I think you're best." Jaga said "do you accept?"Kyra looked at her king and asked.
"What does the king think about having a young girl take care of his cubs? Surely a 16 year old won't be responsible enough."
"I did suggest you to Jaga." He smiled for the first time in the 2 weeks of his wife's death.
"Then if that's what the king wishes then yes." Kyra said smiling at her king.
Kyra blinked ok she knew a lot of things would change but she didn't think she would be moved into a room right next to the nursery and a nice one at that.
The room and a small balcony overlooking the court yard most likely to keep an eye on the young cubs when their outside. A rather large bed sat in the middle of the left wall. It had light blue covers everything else was simple it had a few chairs a bookshelf, dresser and mirror.
"This must have been made for the queen." She walked over to the bed placing her hand on it when she noticed a door across the room. "Oh that must lead to the nursery." When she opened it her guess was correct this was indeed the nursery covered with toys for the young prince and larger toys for the lion-o.
"This is going to take some getting use to."
Didn't need to correct much.
