If her cubs were older, or she knew him better, then inviting him in would be a no brainier. For now, she kept the caution right up. Walking back to the entrance to her den, she sat right out side so they could still talk and she was more comfortable. "As you can see, the dens are very comfortable, a great place to settle in for a stay and safe as well." She was pleased with the den, feeling lucky to having been given it in the first place.
In the night, with her cubs sleeping, she wasn't quite comfortable enough to offer more then more company before either she was too tired or he took his leave on his own. It would be sad to see him go, but she was relieved to know he would come back.

So. They were alone. On a moonlit night. That probably should have been Thilivhali’s hint to put the moves on Senatla, but he was too polite to do such a thing. Also, they were still pretty bloody and that sort of thing was rarely conducive to a romantic environment, at least in Thili’s rather limited experience. “Very well-hidden too,” he observed. A good place to raise a family, in other words. What he really wanted to ask about was Sewelo’s father, the leopard---or possibly a cheetah. But, once again, that wasn’t a topic to be broached with a near stranger.
“I’ll probably stay around for another few days,” he said after a moment of silence. “Just in case you want to talk or need a day off from hunting. But, for now, I’m exhausted. It’s been a long day and I’m sure that it’s been even longer for you, with your cubs to look after.” The lion yawned and stretched out elegantly, every muscle outlined neatly for a moment before he relaxed once more. “I bid you goodnight, Senatla, and I hope we meet again soon.”

The young mother was full and far too tired with much more on her mind to think about romance though certainly she was growing fond of the rogue. Unaware of his curiously over her cub's father, she thought nothing of it and preferred not to. She might answer if he asked so long as her cubs couldn't hear, but otherwise it was something she left alone.
Yawning was contagious and she gave an impressive one following his. Even in the darkness of the night soon to be dawn if the horizon was any indication with the painting of the sky lighter at the bottom, she could see the muscles outlined. He was a very attractive male and showed the body of one who was used to hunting well. Pulling herself away from the thoughts, it was much too late, the lady said, "Good night as well, Thilivhali, thank you again and I look forward to when next we meet." Turning, her lean profile shown well in the coming light, she gave him one last look and a warm smile before going deeper into her den to rest with her cubs.
