"Aw, he's so cute! What's his name?" Sirius said with a twinkle in his dark eyes.

Sherise smiled, "I was thinking Mateo, it's been stuck in my head for awhile now."

"I love it!"

Sherise and Sirius looked and saw Jesús walking in with Adrien. Jesús nuzzled his queen before bending down and nuzzling his son.

Adrien and Sirius sat with smile on their muzzles.

-O-

Lyza laid in the cave with a week old tawny cub by her side.

"Is the cub here?"

Lyza looked up and saw her mate walking towards her. After their first mating, Simba comes over once a month to talk and what not. Lyza nuzzled the tawny coated lion.

Simba looked at his cub with smile. The cub was tawny like him and his own father with her maternal grandmother's purple eyes.

"What are you going to call her?"

Lyza smiled, "I was thinking Astra since after all my wretched sister does go by Sherise and Astra was my great-grandmother's name on my mother side. It's the lease I could do to remember her."

Simba nuzzled the young lioness before nuzzling his new daughter, "I like it, she will be the key to help us get our revenge."

-O-

As the sun began to rise a dark beige cub with a brownish tuff on his head and dark brown eyes stood at the peak of Pride Rock. A yawn was heard from the entrance of the cave.

"Why do we have to get up so early?"

Sherise glared at her mate, "Don't like the taste of your own doing!"

Jesús looked at his queen with a confuse look. Sherise rolled her eyes before walking over to her son."Enjoying the view?"

Mateo nodded as his eyes brighten, "And this will one day be mine?"

Jesús chuckled as Sherise nuzzled her son and said, "Everything the light touches."

"Cool! I can't wait to be king!"

Jesús smiled as Sherise lean against him with a smile of her own.

-O-

Prince Mateo ran down the slope where the pride was resting. Where two cubs were wrestling.

"Hey Sabini! Hi Mheetu!"

A creamy lioness coated cub with orange eyes just pinned down a light gold coated lion cub with a black tuff on his head.

"Hi Matty!" smiled the cream cub.

"What's new?" The light gold cub asked as shaking his fur from dirt.

"Nothing much, I was thinking of exploring."

Sabini and Mheetu nodded with wide grins. Mateo laughed before running off with his friends following. Not knowing that they were heading for danger.
