She'd have kicked him for getting closer, had her side not demanded her full attention at that very moment. Cocky b*****d.

"That may be so," she huffed, "But you'll also do as you're told to do by your Queen."

There. That should take some of that smug out of his attitude, she thought to herself. While Sakata had points, she was not about to allow him to have the upper hand....again.

She looked towards her little ones, who were still sleeping soundly as they had when she arrived, and turned back to head off towards the Scryers, in the opposite direction of the Veteran's approach.

"I'm sure you do," she muttered back at the lioness comment he'd remarked on. It wouldn't surprise her if lionesses fawned over him; many were unfortunately stupid enough to respect the Warleader for his strength and power, blind to the bruteness and cocky attitude that she saw in him. As long as they kept their distance, however, she had no qualms in letting them continue their adolescent fantasizing. Should it grow to more than just fantasizing, however, Jinichongo knew there would be hell to pay, from all parties involved.
