Nyx’s eyes lit up. She could tell it was Thron’s voice.

Then, another even deeper lion’s roar echoed, making Nyx even more excited.

Felix was here too.

No longer concerned with dealing with the young female cub, they scattered and ran in all directions.

affectionate?

“Do you know us?” Black Mane asked calmly.

Upon hearing that, Nyx froze. She lifted her small head, carefully looking at the two male lions again, very sure she hadn’t mistaken her mates.

Although they looked younger now and seemed to be in the subadult stage with their manes not fully grown, with their strong, solid bones and handsome appearance, they were definitely Theon and Felix.

Not all male lions looked this striking.
