Read this passage from Through the Looking-Glass.

“Then hand round the plum-cake, Monster,” the Lion said, lying down and putting his chin on this paws. “And sit down, both of you,” (to the King and the Unicorn): “fair play with the cake, you know!”

The King was evidently very uncomfortable at having to sit down between the two great creatures: but there was no other place for him.

“What a fight we might have for the crown, now!” the Unicorn said, looking slyly up at the crown, which the poor King was nearly shaking off his head, he trembled so much.

What is the relationship between the King, the Lion, and the Unicorn in this passage?

A:The Lion envies the King and wants his ruling power.
B: The Unicorn is uncomfortable with the Lion and the King.
C: The King is nervous around the strong, ferocious animals.
D: The animals are shy because the King wears the crown.
