The Lion King: The Vengeance of Scar 
Since Simba and Nala knew a 19 year old pregnant teenage lioness named Raya needed someone to look after her, they chose Obi (who is about the same age as Raya). He became sweet, shy and supportive to Raya throughout her pregnancy with her litter of cubs. Despite his late father teaching him that cape dogs aren’t those kinds of animals to be near, Obi is friends with a teenage cape dog named Gabo and three young jackal pups (who are residents of of the Pride Lands) named Hades, Sakina and Koda (who are heavily inspired by Toulouse, Marie and Berlioz due to their personalities). 
Whenever he is with Hades, Sakina and Koda, Obi tells them that he has feelings for Raya and has a crush on her, despite her being previously married to an unnamed lion who died. But Obi doesn’t know how to confess his feelings for her, both Hades and Sakina love the thought of Obi being in love with Raya, but Koda is the stubborn one of the three pups, he refers love stories as “mushy stuff”. 
He also goes against Banagi and his two henchmen, Baasho and Claw. The hyena trio plot to kill Raya and the unborn cubs the she’s still carrying in her womb (their main goal to avenge Scar), Obi finds out what the trio of hyenas are up to, so he knew it’s up to him to save Raya and her unborn cubs from Banagi and his henchmen. 
After finally gaining courage to stand up to Banagi, the leader of the hyenas and his followers get scared away. Obi’s best friend Gabo tells him that Raya got into labor as he left to fight the hyenas, Obi, Gabo, Mako and the jackal pups; Hades, Sakina and Koda ran up to the cave. 
As Obi went to the cave, he saw Raya who just gave birth to eight lion cubs, six sons and two daughters. Whom she named Sabino, Kazizi, Safi, Jahari, Sol, Rajah (the boys), Hal and Tumaini (the girls). When Obi first saw Raya’s cubs, he started to burst into tears. 
The night after the eight cubs were born, Raya and Obi were outside the cave at night. Obi finally got the courage to express his feelings for Raya, he apologizes over her mate’s death and finally tells her that he had a crush on her for the start he met her, Raya also confesses her feelings back to him. The two became mates, Obi became the cubs’ stepfather.
