“You need to learn how to hunt,” the lioness advised Nyx. “If they abandon you, you’ll have to survive on your own.”

A cub abandoned during its early years had little chance of survival. But if it learnt some hunting skills, its chances improved slightly.

The best scenario would be if the males raised her a bit longer before abandoning her, giving her a chance to join a pride.

But even to join a pride, she would need to know how to hunt. A pride wouldn’t support a lioness who couldn’t hunt.

Nyx flattened her ears. Although she believed her mates wouldn’t abandon her, her mother’s words made sense. She couldn’t continue lazing around like this.

During her cubhood, she could rely on her mates to provide for her, but if she had to live here until adulthood, she needed to learn to hunt as well.

The lioness was about to give a few more reminders when she suddenly lifted her head, catching a scent on the wind. She quickly turned and ran off, saying, “I have to go now. I’ll come see you again when I can.”

Her figure disappeared quickly. Nyx lifted her little head and looked around, spotting the two male lions returning from their hunt, running toward her.

“Was someone here!” Felix asked as he approached, catching the scent of another predator, likely an adult lioness.

He immediately grew alert, dropping the prey and scanning the surroundings.

Theon also hurried over to Nyx, carefully inspecting her from head to toe.

on me.

“Your mom?” The two male lions tensed at first but then relaxed.

Even if the lioness had come, Nyx couldn’t return to the Red Mountain Pride just yet, so they didn’t have to worry about her being taken away.

Realizing this, the two male lions became more tolerant and even planned to provoke the Red Mountain Pride a few more times in the future.

By intruding into the Red Mountain Pride’s territory, they could not only hunt better prey but also beat up Black Scar, who had nearly killed Nyx before.

Now, there was another benefit–they could create opportunities for Nyx’s mother to visit her more often.,

Seeing how well they had cared for Nyx, her mother would surely be satisfied and more willing to leave Nyx in their care.

Felix secretly planned the next fight in his mind but casually asked Nyx, “What do you want to eat tomorrow? Buffalo or warthog?”

They were already thinking about the next meal before finishing the current one, which explained why Nyx had grown so plump.
