Inuka carried herself like a princess, though she had no royal blood or experience in her. In fact, she had barely met any noble lions in her life, but she still counted herself among them. If only there was a way for her to reach the status she so desired!
Instead, she was stuck running errands in the rogue lands, looking for new members to bring back to her pride, and for information to learn from and bring back as well. It was not her ideal position.
It was a LOT of walking and work, and her paws were aching.
Honestly, she wanted a job where someone would just take care of her, and make sure she was well accounted for. They would hunt for her and bring her things she asked for, and make her life comfortable and easy, so she did not have to feel this kind of exhaustion and hunger. Hunting was a miserable strain for her, and she hated running. So far she had not managed to catch anything in a few days, and it was wearing her spirit down.
Huffing, she flopped down in a nice, sunny patch of grass, putting her paws over her eyes and wishing food to appear in front of her when she removed them. It never worked, but maybe one day...

Inuka was startled nearly out of her fur when a lion came out of no where and nearly landed on her. She leaped up, fur bristling and standing up on end, giving her a look that she would have loathed if she were not so caught up in the whole 'being terrified' thing.
She stared at him, wide eyed, they tried to gather her wits.
Had he said m'lady? How polite! And that was exactly the kind of thing she liked to be called, because it made her feel like a princess. All she wanted in life was to be treated like a princess, after all, and was that too much to ask?
She did not think so.
"Oh, no, I'm fine. I think I lost a few years off my life from the scare, but not hurt. It's okay, sir," she said with a graceful smile, and she bowed her head at him in greeting. "My name is Inuka, envoy of the frozen isles. Was I... in your way?"

Inuka watched him, holding her head up and smirking a bit as she did so, feeling very much like a princess as he called her m'lady again. A lioness could get used to that!
"At least you managed to catch something. Hunting is such trouble, and I'm not good at it, honestly. If you're offering to share... well, I won't say no! But don't worry about the scare, darling, honestly. I'll survive, at least for a while yet."
She offered him a bright smile, looking at him with eager and approving eyes. A handsome male that hunted for her and called her a proper name? It was like a dream come true, at least for a little while. She was going to bask in it while she could, before real life took her back and she had to return to being a nobody, wandering around all alone.
"Do you come with a name, with all that charm?"

Inuka liked his style. Hero and advocate and all those lovely words she liked. Someone who did not mind serving others, and helping them when they needed it. And she always needed it, clearly.
"I appreciate your kindness!" She said, unable to hide the giggle as she tried to match his tone, bowing her head at him in a gentle and graceful way before she scooted toward the food.
She had to keep herself from burying her face in it and inhaling all the meat her stomach could carry.
Polite and well mannered. That was what she was going for. Refined.
His next words caught her off guard. Sure, it was easy to imagine someone helping her out and doing the hard things for her, and making her life easier, but it was quiet another to have someone actually offering it. She blinked at him.
"Are you sure it wouldn't be too far out of your way? I don't exactly live around here. My pride is in the mountains, and I'm supposed to return there, some time."

Oh yes. Inuka liked him a lot. And if she could swing it, she would keep him around as long as she could. It was what she always wanted, after all: someone who would take care of her. She had not imagined that someone being quite so handsome, though, and she blushed a bit at the idea of him sticking around.
What if they really got to know each other?
Inuka was not shy, by any means, but she was proper and she did try to keep herself above idle temptations and embarrassing situations. Still, she could not help but wonder about him, and it was very strange to her.
"I like your compliments, sir, and I like your dutiful ideas. I would be very honored to have you as my companion, at least for a little while. You are a very nice guy, did you know that?" She wondered if he just did these kinds of things because that was what he felt was proper, without actually noticing how kind he was.
She would keep him with her as long as she could. Her own, personal knight. Sans shining armor, of course, but the concept did not occur to her, anyway.

"I am glad my words please you, m'lady, and I hope that my deeds will do so just as much." Azhdaha gave her a little bow before he ate a bit more. He certainly tried to be a good lion. To him good, kind, and proper all went together. "Who knows, perhaps you will like me enough to keep me around more permanently." He put on his most dashing smile and nudged the food toward her a bit more. "Eat up, you will neat your strength for travelling, beautiful." He wondered if Inuka would like him staying around forever. He hoped that she might eventually, which was an unrealistic hope in his own mind, but he still had it.
Azhdaha hoped that the lioness was as proper as she seemed, though. He would hate to find out that she WASN'T and have to explain to her why he did not want to just sire her cubs and walk away. That had been what had chased off one or two of the females he encountered so far. The producing cubs was not such a bad idea so long as he got to be with them. He would much rather it be with a mate whom would love him forever, though.
Lithiasaur sorry this took so long... things went on hold with all the RL stuff going on.

Inuka decided that she did want to keep him around, for as long as he would tolerate her. He was just too perfect, and if she found out it was all an act later she would be very furious.
Right now, though, it was like she had walked into a dream world, and what she had always wanted was dropped right in front of her. She realized she was just watching him, smiling.
Hopefully he didn't catch her staring.
Scooting closer to him, she did not say anything else, as they could focus on their meal and then begin whatever journey awaited them after. She did lean against him as she shared the meal with him, though, humming to herself contentedly as she did so and stealing meaningful looks at him every now and then.
Yes, this whole thing would suit her just fine. And maybe for a long, long time.
