A/N:Your reviews brought a smile to my face. I appreciate them to the highest, now without further ado here's chapter fourteen. Enjoy!

Kiara walked out of the cave from seeing Raziya and little Alika when she ran into Baruchel.

"Hey. How are you settling?"

The light brown lion nodded. "Well. My mother and auntie Fina went to see Mheetu." his ears pinned against his head as he looked at the golden lioness. "How is the cub...and you?"

"I rarely feel any pain. A kick here and there...but that's it"

Baruchel sighed. "I'm happy for you. But did you tell him?"

Kiara shook her head. "No. But don't worry I will"

Baruchel smiled and turned his head where he saw Kovu and some others. "Well...here's your chance"

The light brown lion was about to walk away but Kiara stopped him. "Stay. So he knows there's no secrets"

Baruchel sat and waited for Kovu but the two didn't have to wait long. When the brown lion got close enough Kiara ran over to greet her new mate. But stopped when she saw the cub in her sister in law's muzzle. Her amber eyes went to her mate who was stepping closer.

"Kiara..."

"Kovu...who is this cub?"

By now Vitani sat the cub down and Baruchel walked over where he stood at the golden lioness' flank. Kiara looked at the cub who glared at her.

"That's rather a long story...I guess I can start by saying that this is my son, Jaali"

Kiara's eyes widen as her breath hitched. She looked at the cub again and seen the emerald green eyes that she fell in love with. Alot of emotions ran through her head and she didn't know how to handle them. She took a deep breath and looked at Kovu.

"Kovu...this is a relief and you have no idea how much I'm thrilled"

Kovu raised a eyebrow so did Vitani. "You're thrilled?"

Kiara nodded before sighing. "Kovu...there's something I been wanting to tell you"

"And what would that be?"

Kiara took deep calming breaths but she was no where near calm. "Kovu...I'm pregnant"

The prince consort's eyes nearly popped out of his head. It went quiet and that worried the princess.

"Kovu..."

"It's not mine!"

Kiara was token back but nodded. "Of course...it's Baruchel's"

Kovu snarled before glaring at his mate. "You been playing me...with my emotions!"

Kiara looked shocked before shaking her head. "No...this was before us"

Kovu growled. "You gotta be kidding me!"

Vitani looked at her brother in shock. "Kovu!"

"Kovu...how can you act like this and I...excepted your son"

"It's not the same damn thing!"

Baruchel growled at the prince who growled back. Tears began to fall from Kiara's face.

"Why...because you're a male and I'm a female!"

Kovu growled before turning away. Kiara went to follow but pain in Kiara's abdomen made the lioness stop. Everyone gazed at Kiara in concern.

Baruchel stepped up and nuzzled her. "Is it the baby?" He asked.

Kiara nodded."Ow, ow, ow…!"

Kiara screamed as pain flooded her being. The golden lioness fell unconscious, though. Everyone looked with wide eyes even Kovu.

"Dad!"

Vitani glared at her brother. "Take him away and talk to him!"

Kovu glanced back at Kiara and felt tears fall. He picked up Jaali and headed for the water hole he seen. Baruchel growled before going to Kiara's rear end and saw that the cub had started crowning. Baruchel began to panic. Kiara had gone into premature labor.
