Chapter 7: Hasini's plan

Kutisha couldn't believe what she had just done, she enjoyed kissing Hasini but if her pride found out they would almost certainly turn on her. The sun was going down now, the orange sky almost reaxed the atmosphere. Her ears pricked foward. She heard angry talking in front of her, obviously her angry pride were returning after Hasini supposidly gave them the slip.

"He got away!" Said one lioness frustrated with herself.

"This was your fault Huri!" cursed another

"Blame Safa she was slowing us down" Spat Huri at her accuser.

They walked up to Kutisha.

"He got away your highness."

Kutisha simply frowned at the comment.

"Well I didn't order you to attack him did I?" She glanced over at Huri raising an eyebrow.

"I'm sorry." Huri began.

"It doesn't matter now get out of my sight." Sighed Kutisha rolling her eyes.

The pride settled in the grass for the evening chatting amongst their selves.

Kutisha felt parched. She hadn't drunk in quite a few hours. Pulling herself to her feet she padded into the marsh forests in search of a drink. The sky was now yellow and she still didn't find any water, today really was dry. She was about to turn around when Hasini pinned onto the floor grinning at her.

"Hey Hasini." She said pushing he male off her.

"Hey gorgous!" He said as he nuzzled her.

"I was just looking for something to drink." She smiled.

"I was just looking for you."

Kutisha blushed slightly "And why would that be?"

Hasini kissed her. Caught off guard she fell backwards, Hasini fell fowards off balance and landed on top of her. Still kissing Hasini put his paws on her waist and gently squeezed. This time she did nothing but pull him closer to her chest. Her mind was blank as she allowed him to lower himself down on her. She then realised what he was doing she pushed him off her.

"Too far!" She squeaked in a high pitched voice losing her nerve.

Hasini backed off. "Sorry."

Kutisha hugged him. "It's okay but im not 'ready' to do that just yet."

"Snuggle?" asked Hasini trying to cheer her up

Kutisha smiled and threw herself at Hasini. She pinned him before collapsing on him and rolling off him. Hasini held Kutisha tight whilst she warmed her head in his black mane. The pair fell asleep in the clearing of the marsh forest. The next morning Hasini was the first to wake. He stretched his long body and yawned. It was a lovely day today. The usually quiet area was swarming with life. Birds sang from their nests, monkeys chattered high up in the branches.

Kutisha woke slowly opening her purple eye's and stretched out on the floor on her back. She then turned over her right ear flicked. Hasini whispered into her ear.

"Aren't you forgetting something lazy bones?"

Her eye's shot open, springing up onto her feet she realised it was morning.

"I must leave, my pride!"

"Wait!" Hasini stammered "Take me with you!"

Kutisha froze. "I'm sorry but, well, I..."

"Please!" Hasini begged.

"You'd have to get in by force, they'd never accept you it you just waltzed in there..."

Hasini had an idea. Kutisha only had to look at him to tell.

"I don't plan to..."

Kutisha ran to where her pride were remarkably still asleep. She knew Hasini was close nearby waiting to strike at any moment. She lay down as if she were there all night. Hasini Charged into the pride roaring loudly as he could. The lionesses shot up shocked at the attack. They were caught off guard as Hasini slammed his paw into Huri's sides. She backed off at once not wanting to be hit again. The lionesses surrounded Hasini.

"I want to deal with him!" Said Kutisha growling at him.

She's cute when she's angry. Suddenly Kutisha pounced on him biting down gently on his back.

"Ouch!" Pretended Hasini. Falling over.

Hasini threw Kutisha across the floor. She pretended to be unconcious.

"I Rule here NOW! You understand?" Hissed Hasini.

The lionesses backed off. Success.

"Go and hunt!" Hasini demanded. The pride ran off scared of the dark male.

Kutisha got up and shook the dirt off her body. Hasini ran over to her.

"Are you okay?"

"Yeah i'm fine" She smiled before licking Hasini on his cheek.

He nuzzled her gently.

"So what's your pride normally like?" He asked enthusiastic.

"Rough and disobediant" She replied.

"Oh, you are joking right?"

"Actually i'm not." She said grinning at him. "You'll get used to it."
