Spotteddogo; Hate to be Kovu. A lot of lions are out for his blood.
TMNTTLK lover; What a sweet reunion that will be.
KawaiiCutie12; We can only hope not.
Here's chapter twenty-six, enjoy!
It hasn't been long since her grandfather roared to seek permission to enter. Even though once the Pridelanders or Lion Guard sees her, they won't be too concerned about the two males with her but the two cubs currently chasing butterflies nearby.
Sherise was absolutely nervous and afraid. What will everyone think when they see she returned as a mother? The afraid part was that she was scared of Jesùs' reaction.
At the sound of multiple roars, Sherise took a deep breath. Just as Kion, Desta and Zawadi ran over.
Their eyes were huge, particularly about to budge out of their sockets.
Kion was the first to snap out of his frozen state. The golden yellow lion quickly rushed forward and pulled his neice into a warm embrace.
Sherise closed her dark purple eyes and laid her head in his thick reddish mane. The large golden yellow lion pulled back and looked at her with tears in his eyes.
"I'm glad you're..." his ears perked at the sound of someone calling 'mommy'. He followed the sound to his neice's paws to see two adorable cubs looking up at him with all too familiar dark purple eyes.
Kion looked at his great-nieces and smiled. He bend down to get a closer look, to have his nose pawed by the little creamy cub. "You must be exhausted. We'll talk about what happened when you are fully rested."
The young dark brown lioness nodded before reaching to grab Talia as Hunter grabbed Sianna.
With a intake of breath, Sherise and Kion lead everyone back to priderock.
...
Once back at priderock, Kiara was already at the bottom looking with anxious brown eyes. When the queen's eyes landed on the returning group, her whole being brightened.
"Sherise!" Kiara cried out happily rushing forward to embrace her daughter to stop short at the two pairs of innocent but fearful dark purple eyes. "You're a mother?"
Sherise gulped and went to respond when she was instantly tackled by two not so small beings. Sherise looked up to see Javion and Amell looking down at her.
"You're back!" Amell said excitedly. "We missed you!"
"Even papa missed you!" the tawny cub's whitish brother added.
Sherise felt the air leave her lungs when she looked up and saw her friend and guard. Sherise quickly turned her head before looking at Amell and Javion.
"Boys, would you be so kind to take my girls on a little tour?"
"Sure!" the brothers exclaimed excitedly before running off with Talia and Sianna.
Kiara told everyone that wasn't needed they were dismissed. Leaving the royal family and Jesùs there, the red-brown lion stood frozen and looking at Sherise with unbelievable eyes.
Sherise took deep breaths before opening her tannish muzzle. "On the way to the Mountain Region...we were attacked by Kovu and... Validimir's sons."
Jesùs lifted his head but quickly lowered it. He didn't want to interrupt.
Sherise went to continue but instead broke into loud sobs with tears streaming down her face. "Kovu.. he raped me... two times. Those are his daughters!"
Everyone looked up with bared teeth. Sherise was afraid everyone would be disgusted with her before she found herself in Nala's embrace.
"Oh, sweet child." the tawny lioness nuzzled her granddaughter. "You poor thing. You're not alone, we're here for you."
Sherise nodded before looking at Kiara who had tears in her own eyes. "I'm sorry mama. I should not-"
"Hush!" Kiara said lightly before pulling her daughter close. "You didn't do anything wrong. I love you just same." Kiara smiled before fixing the backwards tuff on Sherise's head. "Now, how about you introduce me to my grandchildren?"
Sherise nodded before heading in the direction the cubs went with Kiara and Desta at her sides.
...
A few days later after returning, Sherise had started up her lessons again. The dark brown lioness was at the watering hole waiting for her maternal grandfather and mother while also watching Talia and Sianna play with Javion, Amell along with Amanda and Zawadi's month old gold son, Elijah.
"And they said single parenting is hard."
Sherise turned and narrowed her dark purple eyes when she saw the one that had joined her was none other than, Jessica. "What can I do for you?"
Jessica laughed as she padded closer. "Oh, I think you have a idea." she stopped until they were almost touching noses. "I have stand by for a long time. But it's time to set you straight."
Sherise nearly choked before regaining her composure. "I have no idea what you're talking about."
"Oh really?" the tawny-white lioness snarled. "It's no secret that you have feelings for Jesùs. The only one who is blind is that dimwit mate of mine."
Sherise eyes narrowed more before she growled. "Don't speak of him that way!"
Jessica laughed while waving a unconcerned paw before getting back in the young lioness' face with a snarl. "Let's just be clear. Jesùs is mine. If I catch you around him...you'll be sorry."
Sherise glared at the older lioness' retreating body. She growled but knew right at the moment. She has too much on her shoulders with the girls and learning to be queen.
If it's supposed to happen, then it'll happen.
