Steps fell lightly as golden eyes moved to stare upon the dark horizon, the mood of late had been bitter, foul and downright unsettling. While the changes were good for most, she feared for how it would affect some of the other pride mates. It would seem that females had fallen into a lesser role and she wasn't much in favor of that. WHILE, she had come to the pride out of her own will and taken the rank of thrall, it had all been done for the sake of Bastion's children.
Which were soon to be her children.
That scared her now, not because of Bastion and how he react. But because of what the future would be for her offspring. He could not claim them as his own so they would be forced to be Thralls and she wondered what that would hold for them now with the new warlord in place.
It had been apparent to her that she was expecting and she was honestly quite shocked because she had only ever had one child in her life and that had been a long time ago and she had been with other's and never produced any other offspring so a fluke it had been.
Or so she had thought.
Surprise had struck her when Uri came for a visit, after having run into Raksha and Bastion. Truly she hadn't thought she'd see him again, he was a true wanderer's spirit.
"Bastion?"
Her voice rung out in the darkness, she hoped he was there.

She wasn't one to sleep around, not that she couldn't. She wasn't an ugly creature, quite striking she had been told on an occasion or two, but she quite liked the arrangement she had with Bastion so had no reason to search elsewhere.
"I - err, let me rephrase." Composing herself a little bit she cleared her throat and looked at him with all seriousness upon her face. "We are going to be parents, you are going to be a father once more."
She had said it and the weight upon her was suddenly lifted. The news that had just spilled forth from her mouth was huge and she knew that. His job was just getting started though, he had to tell Yhe, or not tell her. But it would be painfully obvious when her cubs arrived who they belonged too, if not one of his son's.
Yhe wasn't a stupid lioness, it was likely she knew rana and bast had some sort of a connection, though it was not romantic. There was love there, but it wasn't the love he had for Yhe, but it was some sort of a connection regardless.
Truly Rana could pass it off as one of his son's kids if so asked to do so, but she would never ask that of Raksha, she looked to him like a son. Perhaps one of his older kids. It was more of a back up plan but she knew the truth would find a way.

His response was about what she had expected, standing up she approached him and gave him a head bump and backed up to look at him.
"I'm not expecting you to stop all plans for this, ask her to be your wife Bastion." If she'd still have him after this came out in time. She wasn't much older than him, but she had still been around for some time. Yhe on the other paw was young, hadn't experienced much in life yet, not like her and Bastion had. Her future had much to look forward to, Rana not so much but she wasn't really trying to find that kind of connection right now.
Being a good surrogate to Bastions cubs had been more than she could have ever asked for. Raising them was something she very much enjoyed doing and being there for him in anyway possible was truly all she wanted right now. "I have been around for quite some time now Bast, probably a little longer than yourself even." Giving a light laugh she didn't want him to try and do the noble thing here. "What I'm trying to say, Is I'm not a young female who needs much in life, I am more than capable of taking care of them without you having to be the hero."
Sitting back down she looked around and then returned her gaze back towards him. "It's a shock to us both and terrible timing really with this new warlord since they will never be able to be freeborn the normal way. I'm okay with that, if you are though" This was a lot of news for him to take in, she had been able to think about it before approaching him to inform him of the news.
"Don't stop your plans to marry Yhe on this account. I promise everything will turn out, she cares for you a great deal, and I know she knows you care for her as well." The one thing Rana had never tried to do was change the kirin into something else, while Yhe was trying to do that she still had some work to do with the lion. But did one every TRULY change?
