Kiara (Caldafox's Fanfics)/Relationships

The relationships of Kiara in Caldafox's fanfics.
=== Kovu ===
Kovu is Kiara's mate, king, and childhood friend. They first met when Kiara wandered into the Outlands against her father's orders. The two cubs got off to a rough start but were getting along swell after fending off several crocodiles. It would be years before they saw each other again as young adults, but throughout their childhoods they both thought of one another. When they met again as adults, Kovu saved Kiara from a fire his siblings started (as part of his mother's evil plan), and once Kiara realized it was Kovu who had saved her, she dropped her attitude towards him. Afterwards, Kovu was reluctantly allowed to Pride Rock. Kiara and him agreed to meet in the morning so Kiara could improve her hunting skills.
A lot more fun was involved than Kovu intended, and the pair ended up racing through the Pride Lands with Timon and Pumbaa. The two lions shared an awkward, accidental kiss, showing more interest in each other following. They stargazed together, and Kiara affectionately comforted her friend while he spoke of his sadness. Rafiki met with them in the meadow and brought them to "Upendi", encouraging them to fall in love. That night Kiara nuzzled Kovu goodnight, and they may have developed feelings over the course of the song.
Kovu started feeling conflicted about his mother's plan after falling in love with Kiara. He attempted to confess to Kiara the truth, but Simba took him aside to talk. Kiara doubted Kovu's role in the ambush against her father, and defended him vehemently while Simba exiled him from the Pride Lands. She was heartbroken by his departure and, breaking her father's orders, snuck out to find her lover. She didn't find him right away; rather, he found her. They were overjoyed to be reunited and expressed their feelings through song and physical affection. Kovu wanted to elope, but Kiara insisted they go back to settle the dispute between the two prides. They were successful, although Zira's life was lost in the outcome. Simba apologized to Kovu for his harshness towards him. Kovu and Kiara were married at Pride Rock and roared over their kingdom.
When Simba and Nala retired as the rulers of the Pride Landers, Kovu helped convince Kiara she was up to the task. The loving couple are currently ruling over their home as a team, as well as raising three cubs: Badru, Kheri and Maua. Both monarchs provide comfort and encouragement when the other needs it and love being together.
=== Simba ===
Kiara had a strained relationship with her father growing up. She resented how protective he was of her, but Simba couldn't stop worrying about his daughter (partially due to his older son running away). As a preteen Kiara tried to get on her father's good side; however as an adult her rebellious antics returned, and she wanted independence again. Many times Kiara's life was in danger, and Simba rushed to her aid even when she didn't need it. After a loud argument, the father and daughter reconciled, and Simba gave his blessing for Kiara's marriage to Kovu. The two have a much better relationship now marked with more consideration towards the other's feelings.
=== Nala ===
Kiara has always maintained a good relationship with her mother. Nala was much less protective of Kiara during her childhood, and more trusting of Kovu from the start. The two spend more one-on-one time together since Kiara has become Queen of the Pride Lands. Nala has much advice for her daughter to cherish and always provides her with love and support.
=== Kion ===
Kion is Kiara's little brother. More often than not as cubs they argued about petty stuff, and seemed to love getting under one another's skin. They are still playful with each other as adults, but Kiara appreciates her brother more now that he lives far away.
=== Kopa ===
Kopa is Kiara's unknown long-lost brother. They got off to an awkward start, but were soon very happy to know each other. They grew closer over Kopa's developing romance with Vitani, and since then love being together. Kiara is pleased to have an older role model, and Kopa is grateful to know his sister so well.
=== Vitani ===
Vitani is Kiara's sister-in-law, by relation to Kovu and marriage to Kopa. Vitani was the first to side with Kiara when peace was suggested between the Pride Landers and Outsiders. Since then, the two lionesses have maintained a friendly relationship. Vitani is trusting and respectful towards Kiara, while Kiara views Vitani as an older-sister-like friend. They frequently spend time together, and watching one another's children.
=== Rani ===
Rani is Kiara's sister-in-law by marriage to Kion. As soon as Kion made known his feelings for her, Kiara was supportive. She happily attended their marriage at the Tree of Life, and has since been on friendly terms with Rani. Rani was a little shy being welcomed into Kion's family, but Kiara helped her feel comfortable and at home.
=== Zira ===
Zira hated Kiara and wanted to kill her. Kiara was nervous of her, but when the crazed lioness's life was on the line, Kiara tried to save her by giving her her paw. Zira refused angrily, which led to her death despite Kiara's efforts to save her. Since her mother-in-law's death, Kiara has rarely spoken of Zira, but whenever Vitani or Kovu bring her up, Kiara tries to be comforting towards them.
=== Badru, Kheri and Maua ===
Kiara loves her cubs very much. She greatly enjoys teaching them and spending time with her family. All three look up to her.
Badru will gladly follow his mom around to see what she's up to, but gets embarrassed when she returns his affection.
Kheri loves and respects his mother, seeking her counsel and closeness.
Maua is a lot like her mother as she grows up, and happily spends time with her.
=== Tiifu and Zuri ===
Kiara became best friends with Tiifu and Zuri during her childhood. They shared a friendship almost similar to a mean-girl cliche, and frequently picked on Kion together. Kiara, however, was not afraid to call out her friends when they acted ridiculous or out of line. As adults they often hang out together, all more matrue than during cubhood.
=== Sarabi and Sarafina ===
Kiara is on very good terms with both her grandmothers. She enjoyed being with them as a cub, but spent more time with them during her budding romance with Kovu, and Queenship. Sarabi and Sarafina have both been very supportive of Kiara throughout her life.
