A/N:I'm glad you're interested in Sita. I couldn't leave you wondering to long so here's chapter four.
Across the Pride Lands' western borders was a land ruled by not a king but only a queen. The kingdom is very much like it's neighboring kingdom. With lush green grass and plenty of prey and water. The only difference between the Pride Lands and the Spirit Lands is that there's no Pride Rock. There's a mountain that sat in the heart of the land with many caves. There are ledges where the pride could watch the sun rise, set or stargaze. At this particular time a young light brown lion sat on one of the highest ledges. His dark brown mane blew in the night breeze. His brown eyes locked on the shinning stars.
"My dear, why are you up here?"
The young male looked and seen a dark cream lioness. "I'm...not sure" then he moved his gaze to the south border. "When do you plan on going back?"
The older lioness sighed before before following the's gaze. "I don't think your aunt wants to see me"
The light brown lion looked from the border to the lioness beside him. "Why not?"
The dark cream lioness sighed heavily. "That's a long story, Baruchel"
"But mom..."
"Enough! You have to show your siblings the kingdom tomorrow and Rogue Heaven. So I suggest you get some sleep"
Without another thought the dark cream lioness stood and headed down a slope from the ledge towards the royal cave. Where only her and her children stays. Baruchel sighed, he knows his mother is hurting. It's only a matter of time before she breaks.

Morning came pretty quickly for the Pridelanders. To early for Princess Kiara, but as being royalty you are not allowed to sleep in. In shadows of the cave leered a pair of golden eyes. It creept slowly across the cool floor. They had managed to get close enough to the sleeping princess and was about to pounce when a sleepy voice stopped it.
"Don't even think about it, Bahati"
Stepping out of the shadows was a light cream teen lioness with dirty blond tuffs on her ears.
"How did you know it was me?"
Kiara sat up with a yawn before glaring at her other best friend. "How did the visit go with your father?"
Bahati sighed. "It was okay. I guess...decided that my half brother will be the next ruler after him"
"I'm sure Malik will be a wonderful king"
Bahati grunted before standing. "Come on, Raziya is at the watering hole"
Kiara stood and followed her friend out of the cave. "I hope Themba isn't there"
The two young lionesses walked out of the cave where they were greeted by a the queen of the Pride Lands.
"Kiara. I see Bahati found you. Don't forget your father wants to take you to Rogue Heaven today"
The golden princess nodded before heading down the rocky steps with the light cream teen on her flank.

Lying by the water hole was a teen pale cream lioness and a young brown lion with a black mane. Their bodies were pressed against the other as loving purrs rumbled in their throats. A clearing of a throat made the couple snap out of their moment to see Kiara and Bahati.
"This is a water hole not a place for...whatever you call that"
Bahati snickered earning a glare from the pale cream teen lioness. The brown male sat up and looked at Kiara hard, silently checking the princess out.
"Kiara..."
Kiara ignored her friend and continue to glare at the slightly older male. "What would my father say"
Themba chuckled, his amber eyes glistened. "I'm sure your father would understand. After all...he"
Kiara snarled cutting the male off but before she could say something her name was called. She turned her gaze to a nearby hill to see her father. Biding her friends farewell, the princess trotted off towards the golden lion. Once on the hill the king greeted his heir with a nuzzle. But the red mane male frowned at the unpeaceful look that graced his daughter's features. As father and daughter headed for the eastern borders, Simba looked at the teen with concern.
"Kiara. What's wrong?"
Kiara growled. "I don't trust Themba. Something about him is not right"
Simba looked ahead and sighed. "I have been feeling the same lately. But there's nothing we could do. So how about your royal lessons and when we return your mother and grandmothers with give you hunting lessons"
Kiara smiled before trotting up to get to her father's side. The thought of a day with her father and to meet her uncle took all thoughts of Themba to the back of her mind.
