�Nef? What�s going on?� Garra came out from behind the boulders. When she saw the male, her heart leapt into her throat and she let out a squeak. He was so handsome!! His sandy fur covered thick muscles. Sun highlighted his pale mane and glinted in his murky green eyes. Garra was enthralled. The only problem was, he was staring at her sister Neffie. He hadn�t even noticed her! �I�ll fix that.�
Garra waltzed over to the boulder that her sister stood beside, arguing with the lion. Neffie was telling him that he had to leave, that they were camping there tonight. He obviously wasn�t listening to her, because as she growled, he was scouting out the crevices and mumbling something about how moss meant it was too damp to sleep here. �Neffie, you didn�t tell me we�d have company!� Garra exclaimed.
�We won�t, Garra, because this brute is leaving!�
�Oh, Nef, don�t be so rude! We�d be honored if he stayed the night.� Garra bated her eyes at Khan. He smiled back and sauntered towards them.
�Honored, huh? Then I have to stay. Thank you, lovely, for the invitation.� He bowed in front of Garra and turned his back to claim his sleeping place.
�Humph. Garra, what�s wrong with you? We don�t need him here.�
�No, but I want him here.� Garra rebuked. �You don�t get to make all the decisions!!�
Khan chuckled as he walked away from the quarreling sisters. �This will be a very interesting night.� Khan thought. Little did he know that these lionesses would be around for much longer than that.
A very small piece of a background story for these wonderful characters. This is part one of an application for the pale lioness that I hope to get from Esca. ^-^ I have much more to the story but it would be too much to read, so here's the part that goes with the picture.
The render of the lionesses and of the lion are mine. The background is Esca's. All the character's are Esca's also.
