Malka and Sabrina walked out of the den to go down to the watering hole.

Sabrina bows her head low thinking.

Malka ask her "what's wrong?"

Sabrina sighs "I was thinking about Kovu and Kiara's relationship."

Malka ask "what do you mean by that?"

Sabrina smiles "well since we're the future king and queen continue the circle of life after becoming king and queen if we rule that long."

Malka smirks "is that what your worried about, continue the circle of life?"

Sabrina answers "no not just that but how long our relationship would last or become more than boyfriend and girlfriend."

Malka sighs "Sabrina I'll love you forever, so you don't have to worry about our relationship because your my only queen to our kingdom.

Kovu walked up to them and ask "are you two going out to play?"

Malka answers "yes, why?"

Kovu answers "Simba told me to tell you both to be careful out there and that there's a storm coming soon. If you get caught in it, there's a cave towards the Eastern border."

Sabrina smiles "thank you, Kovu, for the tip."

Kovu walks back to the den to see if Kiara is awake.

Simba and Nala were at promontory point over looking the pride lands.

Kovu walked in the den to see Kiara still sleeping and decides to do something romantic.

He smiles at her pushing her over on to her side and begins rubbing her belly causing her to squirm a little to the feeling.

Then he moves to rubbing her back making her purr a little.

Then begins cleaning her face making her purr loud and kisses her on the muzzle having her eyes open fast seeing who's kissing her to shut them slowly feeling Kovu rub her cheeks while kissing him.

Simba and Nala walk in the den to see Kovu waking Kiara up in a very romantic way.

Then boom, thunder roars across the sky.

Lighting lights up the sky.

Simba smirks "does someone need to be held while napping?"

Nala smirks "shut up before you have to sleep under the promontory point" and laughs.

Malka and Sabrina ran to the cave near the Eastern border to ride out the storm.

Malka watches the rain coming down with Sabrina.

Sabrina thinks back to the conversation that her and Malka talked about and ask "Malka were you implying that I was already your queen?"

Malka looks at her and nods his head "yes, I do look at you like your my queen. But we are not ready to continue the circle of life yet. But you are Queen Sabrina of Harmony Pride."

Sabrina smiles "I like the sound of that Queen Sabrina and that would make you King Malka of Harmony Pride."

Next morning, Malka and Sabrina woke up on their sides hugging.

Sabrina was snuggle into Malka's chest while his paws wrapped around her neck encasing her in warmth purring loud.

Malka ask "did you sleep well?"

Sabrina answers "yes and did we do anything besides telling each other we love each other?"

Malka answers "no, do you feel the same?"

Sabrina answers "same as always."

Then notice sunlight and says "the storm has passed let's head home. Your dad will be expecting us to be coming home today."

Kovu and Kiara walked out to the promontory point waiting for their step brother to return from the cave.

Kiara tells him "will you calm down, they're be fine. Didn't you tell them about the cave to go to if they got caught in the storm?"

Kovu nods his head "yes but that's not what worries me."

Kiara ask "what worries you then?"

Kovu looks around them and whispers in her ear "I overheard Malka and Sabrina talking about their relationship right now and become more than boyfriend and girlfriend like mates."

Kiara ask "you didn't suggest they do that, becoming mates by doing that?"

Kovu shakes his head "no, but I kinda suggested that he show her a little more love."

Kiara smirks "bad cupid, bad boy, you don't do that again or you'll be grounded for a week inside the den."

Kovu lowers his head and replies "yes Queen Kiara."

Kiara stares at him with her jaw dropped open for a minute before asking "what did you just call me?"

Kiara and Kovu's parents and grand-parents were walking out of the den, when they heard Kiara raise her voice asking him a question.

Kovu looks past Kiara to see Simba, Nala, Sarabi, Sarafina, Ni and Zira watching them and blushes red.

Kiara ask him again "what did you call me? With a gentle voice."

Nala ask "Kiara, princess, what did prince Kovu call you?"

Kiara answers her mother "he call me something royal after I scolded him for doing something to our step-brother and his girlfriend but Kovu is too sly to say it" smirking at him.

Kovu growls "I'm not sly, Queen Kiara."

The adults look at each other then back at the two cubs.

Nala steps forward and whispers in her daughter's ear since "he called you his queen what would you call him?"

Kiara walks up to him nose to nose and stares at him for a second.

Kovu ask "what are you going to do to me?"

Kiara grabs his face bringing their muzzles together in a passionate kiss for three minutes till they need to breath and says "I accept your proposal My King Kovu, but remember we have a few more years till we're adults to become king and queen."

Kovu smiles at her then looks at everyone realizing they heard it.

Simba looks at Kovu and says "you got some nerve proposing to Kiara at your-"

Nala cuts him off "Simba!"

Simba puts his paw to stop her "but you two have been through a lot together, face things that challenged your relationship bond proving that nothing can break your bond. You love each other so much that you can't live with out each other. So after seeing how protecting you both are over each other, It seems that I am being forced to do this."

Kiara bows her head starting to shed tears.

Nala looks at him angry.

Simba finishes with "giving you prince Kovu my blessing in becoming Kiara's husband when I decide when your both ready to take your place as King and Queen."

Kiara runs up to him hugging his paw whispering "thank you daddy."

Simba looks at Kovu open his paw waving it to come here.

Kovu runs up to him hugs him too.

Nala smiles "you had me for a second thinking you was going to denied the proposal."

Simba ask her "why would I do that after all the time that Kovu choose to come live with us and fall in love with Kiara?"

Nala smiles "your right, but the way you were saying the speech had me fouled."

Kion and Fuli walk up the side of Pride Rock to see his parents and grand-parents and ask "what's going on?"

Zira steps forward and answers "Kion, Kovu just proposed to your sister Kiara so you can call me your soon to be step aunt Zira if that is okay with you."

Kion answers "that is okay since you helped me with controlling the powers of the roar of the elders so thank you for that."

Fuli nudges Kion to get his attention.

Kion looks at her and says "oh yeah, Dad we have a problem. Mzingo informed Jasiri who informed me that Cheezi and ten remaining hyenas that survived the river ride blast said get ready for round two and they're looking for a leader."

Simba looks at the pride and says "they won't last long against all of us. Tell Mzingo that I said for them to give up."

Malka and Sabrina walked back to Pride Rock to say their goodbyes giving them a hug and headed back home to Harmony Pride.

Kovu wish them a safe trip back home and come back again soon.

Malka replies "we will do that, take care of her, okay brother?"

Kovu smiles "I will."

Kiara watches them leave. After the adults leave Kiara smiles and ask "Kovu would you give me a bath?"

Kovu ask "doesn't your mom do that?"

Kiara answers "yes but what if I wanted more than what a mother can do for their cub?"

Kovu sighs and walks with Kiara to the top of Pride Rock to be alone.

Kiara lays down and Kovu begins cleaning her.

When he reaches her face, she wraps both of her paws around his neck bringing his muzzle to her in a kiss turning into heated kiss.

Kovu breaks the kiss and says "we better go before our parents wonder what we were doing up here."

Then both head back down the path.

Kiara smirks "I can't wait to be queen and become mates with you."

Kovu smiles "neither can I."
