I'd say Kion's just scientifically a cub between ages two and eight in the cat lifespan, a cub who has lived for three years of our calendar of time is a teen lion. But it's because female cheetahs are solitary I'm thinking he'll end up with Rani. The clearest fact of the lion cubs in the Lion Guard series is they're now around their cubhood time of learning the lots of dangers they might face if they do stuff alone, except that in this animation they cute cubs won't be eaten. A two year old cub is the age that can leave its mother in real life but  Kion being the hero made a difference, cubs that are three years old or four years old are the ages that look for mates in real life but they want the Lion Guard series to be fun so they let the social stuff happen  much sooner than they happen scienitifically. Real lions don't have their mohawk until they're two years old in our calendar of time, so the mohawks on the cartoon cubs of the Pride Lands was to make them cuter.
