The pale lioness Malika was wandering around the oasis again trying to explore a bit more. However she stopped at the pool of water. Taking careful steps to the edge she lapped up some water before she resumed with her travel.
Malika was enjoying the new day and it felt to be out and about. She had seen a good deal of the oasis and couldn't wait to see more of it. A large smile was easily seen upon her maw.

Little did Malika know but in her wanderings she came pretty close to Nyekundu's den, very few knew how to get to this spot it was kept that way for the protection of the king princess and generals. Said princess was louncing in the courtyard. She'd dragged out one of her fathers furs all on her own, she hadn't managed to convince one of her slaves to do it for her so she'd taken the innitiative. Laying now with the morning sun heating up her jet black coat she barely noticed somone approaching and with the scent of a female she automatically assumed it would be Rukiy. "It's about time I'm starving.." she trailed off as her dark purple eyes rested upon the pale female. "who are you? What are you doing here? MOSES!" her tail wriggled uncomfortably, she didn't trust any other lions except for her closest slaves, she barely even trusted her own father. Who was this stranger wandering about?

Instantly Malika took a step back. She had never seen nor met the young female infront of her but from the look of her she could tell that the female infront of her was none other than the princess. "My name is Malika'Eusi." She spoke softly bowing in greeting. "You are the princess correct?"
"I was just out for a walk, to learn of my surroundings better, I apologize for disturbing you." Malika spoke softly and it was a miracle that she had not began to stutter, perhaps because she knew that the lioness infront of her was apart of this pride. "If you are hungry I can bring you something."

Afritti'Dogo stared quietly at the pale lioness. Her dark violet eyes settling for a long moment as she settled herself back down. The lioness could have hurt her already. She hadn't and she was offering food?
Licking her lips the dark femme looked oevrly thoughtful clearly she was mulling through her options. "Thats correct I am the princess of this oasis, Nyekundu's heir" she stated though this was far from the truth, certainly she was his daughter but it was doubtful she would ever rule the oasis if Nyek had anything to say about it. "you should be careful my father doesn't usually like people wandering around near his personal den." Pausing once agains he licked her lips.
Moving slightly o the fur she was nestled in she stretched out her claws. "Food would be much appreciated." The little devil wasn't known for her subtleness or for saying please so she simply looked atthe green marked femme with a brow raised. She was indeed hungry.

Malika waited for the answers from the other. "It is an honor to meet the daughter of the king." Malika replied in her soft tone of voice. The pale lioness didn't know if Afritti would be queen but she didn't doubt that there was a chance. "I did not know it was the kings personal den, hopefully he will not be too angry with me should he find me."
Nodding her head she replied "Of course, I will be right back." Before she backed away before turning and disappearing in to the trees. Soon enough she was back with antilope meat, a good bit of it having it be the hind leg that she carried with her. Gently she placed it infront of the princess. "If you wish for more after this I would be happy to get it for you."

Afritti'Dogo looked up at the pale female a brow raised in a curious manner. She found it strange to be around a willing slave. Perhaps the female had been dropped on ehr head? Shrugging the idea off she tore at the antilope hide with ehr claws first mashing the meat in to small chunks before she took a mouthfull and chewed while still watching the green marked femme.
Licking her lips she paused in her feast her dark eyes forever contemplating. "good meat" this was as close to a thankyou as the salmon princess came though for a long moment she watched the other femme before returning to the meal set before her. She would fill her belly before her sleaves or her father appeared. She was hungry and wasn't giving this up to anyone.

One of the reasons Malika was a willing slave was the fact that she actually enjoyed being her, around Nyek since she didn't know of the things that happened when she was not around. Another reason was the fact she had never been called slave, or treated like one.
She could hear a thank you even if those were not the words used and so she replied with a smile "Of course princess." The pale female watched the younger one wondering what her mother had looked like since she had never seen Afritti's mother not that she minded too much. "Please enjoy, just let me know if you would like more, I would be happy to bring you more."
Ah sweet sweet naive Malika.

Afritti'Dogo paused once again. This female must have a screw loose. Noone helped anyone else here. Shrugging a little she ate her fill and cleaned her lips. "I need to be groomed" It was a statement, an order rather than a request. The little devil was still a cub after all, despite all her heirs and graces she wanted to be groomed by a female, wanted to curl up with a motehr figure. She didn't have one of course, Rukiya wasn't exactly what yuo wouldcall a mother more like a pain in the arse.
Of course Afritti would never admit she wanted a mother, she wanted to appear independant of everyone, in charge, but the little cubs natural instincts far out weighed her ambition, even if she would never admit she quite literally wanted a hug.

"As you wish." Malika replied rising to her paws before padding over to the princess and laying down next to her. Placing a paw around the other the pale female began to groom the other gently. First she started at Afritti's head before moving on.
The white lioness with green markings did not know of the others want for a mother but she felt connected to the other in a way. Perhaps it was the fact of never really having a mother around either. Soon she was finished and said "Anything else you would like?"

Afritti'Dogo was becoming more confused than ever. Why did malika actually obay her? She was being nice rather than snide the way her slaves were. She was very confused. Still, she was enjoying being groomed her dark violet eyes closing as her whole dark, salmon striped body was cleaned from head to toe.
"No, thats fine." Looking at Malika she curled up next to the pale female and was quiet for a long time. In contrast, the dark coat of the little princess stood out like a sore thumb against malikas pale countenance. Looking thoughtful the dark eyed princess spoke again. "Where did you come from? You arn't like anyone else i'v ever met" she stated rather simply.

Malika enjoyed having the cub curled up next to her even if it was in silence. Though the two were opposite in color the pale female did not mind and actually found it soothing. The reason was unclear to the other though.
"Where did I come from?" Malika repeated in her same soft tone. "I am not to sure, all my memories are of the forest where your father, my lord found me when I wasn't too much older than yourself." Then a pause followed as Malika thought of the past. "Even though I was left by my mother I still had hope, without it I would not have lasted. I suppose that has made me how I am, I know there is good in everyone, even if they do not show it and it can only take a bit of coaking to find it." Taking a breath she continued "I am happy to serve my lord, and the daughter, my princess, in anyway I can, I suppose you could say it is my way of contributing to the pride and saying thank you for giving me a home."
A misty look had appeared in her eyes but was gone when she said "I'm sorry I shouldn't have gone on and on, but please feel free to let me know whenever you need something, I would be happy to help."

The salmon princesses tail flickered as she listened to malika, her brow scrunched, that didn't help her at all. Though it seemed that malika was fully loyal to her father, she seemed to want to serve her too? She raised a brow, weird, usually they served her begrudgingly, daughter of the king she may be, but that was all, she was not his heir. Though she dreamed that one day her father would dub her thus, she was not.
"I like you Malika, you'll come here everyday and sit with me won't you? Yes, i know you will" unused to requesting anything, the dark princess lay curled quite happily against the pale female. She guessed malika would turn up even if she ordered her to, her question though was partially a request. A rare thing for the violet eyed femme.

"I am happy to say that I like you too Princess and I would love to come join you here everyday." Malika replied shortly after Afritti had finished speaking. It was the perfect way to get to know the cub and the white lioness enjoyed the others company.
"It would make me very happy to do so, I do enjoy your company very much Princess." The lioness told Afritti as she curled up against her. This just seemed to be so natural for the green marked femme to do with a cub and she did enjoy it very much so.

Afritti looked up at the pale lioness, confusion scribbled accross her dark features. Was she acctually serius? She seemed to be. How strange. The little devil had never had a mother figure before, this Malika seemed to be taking to it like a duck to water though. Shaking her head she cast away the thoughts of a mother, she didn't have one as far as she was concerned, she had slaves and servants. Who needed a mother?
Still, she curled up tightly against malika and rested her chin on her forepaws to sleep. "I'm going to sleep" she stated simply closing those violet eyes to the world and sighing deeply. "be here when i wake up." she pauses a dark eye opening "won't you?" she raises a brow closing that eye once again, of coruse she would,s he had given an order. Such silly thoughts this one had oput in to ehr head, like theer was such a thing as a mother, or sweetness, there was no such thing.

"Of course I will be here princess" Malika whispered softly as to not disturb her. "Sleep well and dream well." Were the last words the older lioness spoke as she glanced down at the sleeping form of Afritti.
As soft smile remained on her maw as she rested her own head on her paws, but not drifting of into sleep as she lay next to the smaller black furred cub. Everything just seemed right about it.
