I dream of my Buck, my beloved mute White Bengal Tiger. And we are happy together. And I feel comforted, I feel someone holding me tightly while I sleep. And when I open my eyes, I see it is Takeru. He's holding me tightly and he looks worried for me. "He did not hurt you, did he?" Takeru asks. "No, Papa Bear, I wasn't injured by his hard fucking, but he hurt my heart by how he ran when I told him I had wanted him to fuck me." I say fighting tears. "Claude, he has been badly hurt, his heart is as scarred as his throat, he will come to you when he can get past his pains." Takeru says stroking my mane. I tell him what Edward said last night. "Claude, how would he know what is to happen, Walt told me of your precognition, but how can you be sure he is right?" Takeru asks. "You know like Alfred, he always knows things, I trust him Papa Bear" I say kissing him. Takeru smiles. "It still thrills me to hear you call me Papa Bear or Oto-Sama, Claude" he says kissing me. He's got a big grin on his face, and he's happy his son loves him.

Grandpa is snoring deeply with his arms locked tightly around Jerry. And they look so sweet together. I get up and go pee, and Takeru and I go down to breakfast. "I like not having to wear clothes, my son" he says smiling. "Master Claude, how are you holding up?" Edward asks me. I nod. "Buck got up early and went to work" Edward says. "He works Thursday, Friday and Saturday, he maintains the Public Library's circulation computer, Claude" Edward says. "I spoke with him this morning, he was quite preoccupied but he will be home earlier than his usual, he will be pulled back to you, his fear is weakening." Edward says. "We must hurry, Bernard will be here soon" Edward says excitedly. I stand and I hug him. "You remember" Edward says. "Papa Bear, come with me when I take Edward to pick up his Bull?" I ask. "I need my Oto-Sama with me now" I say softly. Takeru smiles. "I'll go" he says. "My son needs his Bear father" he says happily. "I do, Papa-San" I say softly. Takeru kisses me.

"Claude, your Grandfather is a magnificent lover" Edward says smiling I nod. I know how good Grandpa is. "My Father is magnificent in bed as well" I say smiling. "I would hope to experience him before he leaves" Edward says. "How long will you stay with me, Papa?" I ask. Takeru grins. "I will leave on Friday, Jim is coming on Saturday for a week, and we do not wish to visit you together quite yet, he wishes to give me time alone with you, Yoshi will be here Monday and he will go home with me, and his Daisuke will be with him" Takeru says softly. "I will come back to my son in three weeks after I leave, I will spend a week each month with you for a while, my son" Takeru says. "By Christmas we will be prepared to have Jim and I here at the same time" Takeru says grinning. "We will both spend the Holidays with our Sons, Yoshi and Daisuke will come as well" Takeru says smiling. "Our whole family will be together, my Lion son, Rory and his Tiger will be home too" he says kissing me. I'm happy, I can fix the study up with a hide a bed or maybe a Murphy bed in the wall. Knowing my family, they'll be sleeping with each other as it is.

"Oto-Sama, I am so happy to have you here, I love you, and I am grateful for how you've helped me as well" I say kissing him. "I am glad to start to get to know my wonderful Father, and I have enjoyed being loved by you" I say kissing him again. "Claude, to be here, and to know my son, and to make love to him, has given me so much joy and happiness" He says grinning. "I will look forward to coming to you, I am happier and more relaxed than I've been in years" he says and he looks ecstatic. I kiss Takeru and he's tearing up. He loves me so much.

Edward is looking upwards. Something I'll soon realize means he's getting some kind of vision. He looks at Takeru and he smiles. He takes my paw and he pulls me into the Kitchen. "Claude, you are not the only one who'll get the love of his life today," He says. "You told me I'd bond Buck when you bonded Bernard" I say softly. "Claude, Buck bonded you last night when he fucked you, it is why you are calmer today, he's fighting the pull to you now, but he can't for long" Edward says smiling. "Things sometimes change and we have to adjust, Master Claude, neither Alfred nor I saw that he'd be pulled to you, and he'd fuck you, his running from you was because he knew he'd bonded you, and he was terrified." Edward says. "Who else is getting bonded today?" I ask. "Your Father" he says. "Dad or Takeru?" I ask. "Jim is already bonded, Claude" Alfred says walking into the kitchen. "I saw it too, my son" Alfred says hugging Edward. "Claude, Jerry is going to invite a school friend to dinner tonight, and he and Takeru will bond, he's a Lion, he is much like you, and he is a Japanese transfer student, and he'll happily go home to be with Takeru" Alfred says grinning. "I wish I could tell him" I say softly. "No, you cannot" Alfred says calmly.. I nod. "Jerry will be the catalyst for Buck to accept your love as well." Edward says. "I saw it just now, he will do something that will make Buck see how much he loves and needs you, and how strongly you love him" Edward says. "I know better than to ask, Edward, I can never thank you and Alfred for your help, and I know this is not going to be the norm, I do want to know if it is important, but Alfred knows, as long as you use what you know to help us, I'm fine with it" I tell Edward. Alfred nods.

I go up to get dressed. Takeru comes up. "We have time if you want me again?" he asks. "I"ll always want my Papa Bear, just like I always want my Grandpapa Bear" I say smiling. He pulls me onto the bed, and we kiss. He's got my blood up for sure. And we fuck hard and passionately. I moan and I wrap myself around him. He's fucking me deeper and a bit slower now. "I love you, my Claude, I love being inside of you" He growls softly. "I love feeling my Oto-Sama fill me with the cum that made me" I moan. Takeru roars and he's bucking and cumming hard in me. "That was too hot to hold off, I had not thought of it that way, but it is true" he says kissing me passionately. And he starts fucking me again hard and fast. "I know we don't have much time and I want to cum in you again" he moans. And I growl and squeeze my ass on his dick and he roars and cums again. We kiss for a few minutes. And we get up.

I dress in jeans and a T shirt. Takeru looks at me. "Your ass is spectacular in those tight jeans" he says and he's hardening up again. I kiss him. "You should wear a pair, let the world see how beautiful of an ass my Father has" I tease him. I pull a pair out of my closet, and he puts them on. He looks hot in them. I find a nice T shirt to set off his fur. He stands in front of the mirror. "I do look good, my son" he says proudly. I give him a pair of sandals. His feet are the same size as mine. My Father is a truly handsome Bear, he looks great dressed casually. "I love seeing it in your eyes, how hot you think I am" Takeru says grinning.

We walk downstairs. Sam looks at me. "Damn, boy, turn for your Daddy Bull" he grunts. I turn around slowly. "I want you again soon, I gotta go open the gym or you'd be on the floor getting Bull fucked right now" he says. And he kisses me hard and deep. And he rubs my ass. "Your son has a gorgeous ass, tight too" Sam says grinning. Takeru smiles. "I know" he says grinning too. Sam kisses me again. He really gets my blood hot. "You're such a sexy and beautiful Bull, Sam" I say smiling. "Oscar's so lucky" I tell him.

Sam pulls me to the side. "I'd have taken you so fast, I love my Baby Bull, but I'd have taken you if I met you before I met him, and I'd of kept you so well loved and fucked" he says nuzzling my neck. "You're hot, Walt's right, he burns for you as much as I do" Sam says smiling. "Fuck me when you can, and we'll both be happy, I see how you look at Buck, and I think you two will get together soon, he'll love you like I would, Boy" Sam says kissing me. "I'm not having much luck getting him to admit his love for me, Sam" I say quietly. "He was badly hurt, he works out with us, and he's a good Tiger, he was devastated, and while he's a happy Bengal usually, he's gotta be afraid of being hurt again, Claude" Sam says stroking my mane. "Be patient, he's worth it, and Walt and I and your Japanese Bear will keep you well fucked in the meantime" he says kissing me. "I'd fuck you now, but I'm late as it is" he says. "Hang in there, mi amo" he says smiling. And he grins at me. And he kisses me again and he leaves for the gym. I'll have to get to know Sam better. He's an amazing Bull, not just good in bed, but sharp witted. And I do want to get to know Oscar, he's not been distant, but he's been at their gym an awful lot since I got here.

Hell, everyone wants me with Buck, even Oscar said last night how much in love with him I seem. And he's been kind of shy around me himself. But Sam got to me somehow, I can do this, I can keep hanging on, til I get my Tiger, Edward said I was already bonded to him. I can believe it, I can feel his heart if I close my eyes and think of him. I wonder if he can feel mine. And I stand and I focus on trying to have my heart reach out to my Buck. (He'll feel it, he'll tell me later, this is the exact time that he became aware that he could not stay at work now, and he began to stop fighting our bonding, though it still took him a while to give in totally, but he will leave work and come home to beg me to take him, and find me gone. And he'll be upset.)

Father and I leave with Edward for the airport. Edward is really excited. By the time we get to the airport he's lost his English reserve entirely. Takeru is grinning deeply. I park and we go to the British Airways gates. Edward is so happy, it's contagious. Takeru's holding me tightly now. I have to admit, I feel comforted and loved in my Spectacle Bear father's arms.

And I see Bernard. He's a bit shorter than me. His fur is Brown with White splotches, and he's very handsome. He has softly shining Brown eyes, and a thick beard. His hair is Brown too. His hoof tufts and Tail tufts are Brown mixed with streaks of White hair. He's hot. And he runs to Edward and they hug tightly. I fight tears as it's so sweet to see how much in love they are. Bernard has the same gentle masculinity that Buck has. And I have seen it my Bear Father too.

He walks over to me, and he shakes my paw and he thanks me for bringing him to his Fox and letting them live together. "Welcome home, Bernard" I say hugging him. He weeps. "I missed him, and I didn't know why he'd left me, and now he's mine again and I have no words for it" he says. He has a soft English accent that is very sexy with his deep voice. I introduce Bernard to my Father, and he shakes Takeru's paw, and Takeru pulls him into a hug. Edward smiles. "I see now where you get it from, Master Claude" Edward says smiling. I explain quickly to Bernard about only finding out recently about Takeru being my real father. Takeru is grinning broadly through the whole explanation. "He is very proud of you, Claude" Bernard says smiling. "He just found his father too, and he brought mine to see me" Edward says joyously. We're a pretty happy bunch right now. Edward knows I understand how he feels. It makes us closer, he'll never just be my retainer, he'll be a close friend that takes care of my little family. (When Dad moves out and Alfred and Manuel come out too, Edward's really happy to get to have his Dad here too. Again we really understand each other. Buck does too. When Takeru visits we spend a lot of time with him and his mate. We sleep together too. Dad still won't sleep with me. But he and Harry sleep with Sam and Oscar a lot. Oscar's hot for Dad and Harry's just as hot for Sam as I am. Despite Beau and I having a very active sex life, I fuck Sam two or three times a week. And Grandpa at least twice a week. They've taken me together and have Damn near worn me out that way.)

We get his bags and put them in my trunk and we drive home. Bernard and Edward are in the back seat and kissing a lot. Takeru is smiling. He's a romantic Bear alright. We carry their bags in, and Bernard and Edward take his bags and go off to his room. Takeru goes into the living room. And I go into the kitchen to get a Diet Pepsi. Alfred is fixing lunch. "I told Edward I'd take the house with Manuel's help so he and his Bernard could bond" Alfred says smiling. "He's a good Bull, his love for Edward was so touching to see" I tell Alfred. "Claude, Edward is a wonderful son, he loves me and he's called his Mum and his Dad, and he loves them too, he's like you, he loves his Father and the Dad who raised him. "I guess I ought to call Dad" I say softly. 'No, Claude, not yet, wait and you'll soon have bigger news to tell him" Alfred says. "Very soon in fact" Alfred says looking up at the ceiling now. "Seeing something?" I ask him. He nods. And I flash on Buck yanking me out to the patio bodily and he's on his knees again begging me to take him. But he's angry at first. He's furious in fact, but not at me. At Jerry? But I can see it all unfolding in front of my eyes again. I wish these visions had a time stamp or something. I am as impatient as Dad said I was.

I am so confused now. I go to my bedroom but on the way, I hear Jerry arguing with someone. He's yelling and there is silence and he's yelling again in answer to someone. I flash on it, he's arguing with Buck. Grandpa is in the living room, as I can see from the stairs. I can hear him, Jerry's yelling at Buck for being a coward and taking the risk of losing me. And right now. I hear Jerry tell Buck he's glad he can finally admit how much he loves me. I have to be hopeful here, but I hope Jerry didn't just derail things trying to help me.

I don't want to hear this, so I turn and go to the living room. I sit by Grandpa and I cuddle into him and I weep. "What's wrong, Boy?" Grandpa asks stroking my mane. "Jerry's arguing with Buck about me, and about Buck's not taking me, it'll wreck everything" I whine. "No, Baby Lion, I saw this, Jerry has to do this, it's what will make Buck realize how much he has to lose if he doesn't take you" Grandpa says.

"I hope to Hell, we aren't this way all of the time" I say softly. "I could live the rest of my life happily without anymore flashes" I moan. Grandpa laughs. "This is something important and it'll bring out our flashes of the future, normal life won't so much" Grandpa says stroking my mane. "They mostly come to us when we're at risk to mess up our lives somehow, they'll come and show us how things should be" he says softly. "I'd almost rather take life as it comes" I say shakily. "You don't mean that, how would you have handled this if you didn't have your retainers guiding you, or your own and my flashes, Claude?" he asks. "I'd of gone to him and told him I loved him, and begged him to take me" I say softly. And I can see it so clearly now in my mind.. He'd of run from me, and left for good. He would hurt too much to trust himself or me. And I'd never see him again. And I'd be alone and lonely for good.

Alfred comes out and grabs my paw. "Not long now, be prepared, Claude, now will be the time to be honest and open as you always are, Claude" he says softly. I sit and wonder. Will it happen the way I saw it, and will he finally give in and accept our bonding?

Alfred was right. I feel Buck's strong paws picking me up off of the couch. Buck's got me tightly in his arms, and he looks furious. Grandpa's grinning at us. And he carries me out to the patio. He sits me on the bench, and his face is softening. "I am sorry, I had no right to do what I did to you last night" he signs. I get on my knees in front of him, and I take his paw.."Buck, I wanted you to fuck me, very badly in fact, I care so much about you, I love you, damn it, I fell for you when I first met you Buck." I say gently. Buck looks into my eyes. "You do?" he signs. "I'm mute and scarred inside too?" he signs. "I know, and I don't give a damn, I don't pity you either, I respect the Hell out of you, and I'm determined to give you the best life I can, if you'll finally just take me" I say, and I'm surprised that there is a touch of anger in my voice. "Buck, I can't live without you, and even more, I don't want to live without you as mine" I say firmly.

Buck smiles. "Jerry was right, I was being stupid" he signs. "No, you had a lot of fear to sort through, last animal you let love you, did unspeakably horrible things to you" I say gently. Buck laughs. "Making a joke, unspeakable" he signs and he's grinning. "Not really, Big Tiger, just the odd way I talk" I say smiling. He sits me back up on the bench. And I see it's unfolding as it did in my visions. There is so much love in his eyes now. I fight tears and lose badly. And the breezes blow gently around us and I can smell the flowers Edward planted. The scent of carnations, and honeysuckle hits my nose. And I will forever think of my Tiger when I smell them in the future.

He takes my paw. And he signs to me with his free paw. "I love you, I have since we first met, I was so scared, you were right, I was too afraid of being hurt again." he signs. "I will love you forever if you would take me to you" he signs. "I will love you as long as I live, and you have to know you bonded me last night when we fucked" I say quietly. "We did, and I will bond you again to be sure" he signs. "I don't want you to get away, beautiful Lion" he signs. I lean forward and kiss him. And damned if I don't faint dead away. He grins. He's holding me tightly and weeping gently when I come to. "I love you, Claude" he signs quickly. "I adore my Tiger" I say kissing him again. He smiles. "Will your father approve?" he signs. "I do, Buck "Takeru says happily walking out on to the patio. "You are more than worthy of my Lion son" Takeru says happily. "Walt told me he'd approve, he came in while we were arguing" Buck signs. "I know, he told me the same thing when I told him I loved you" I say softly. "You knew you loved me?" he asks in sign. "I have loved you since before we met, I had dreamt about you, back before I left Alabama, and it's why I looked at you so shocked at first" I say softly. "You dreamed of me?" he asks. "I did" I say softly. "He did, Buck, he has loved you for a while now, and he knew he had to be cautious, and he was prepared to wait for you to make up your mind to come to him" Takeru says."But he knew he had to let you come to him, you had to work through your pain, before you could see how you loved him, but I could see it in your eyes, how much you loved him." Takeru says smiling

Buck picks me up. And he carries me to his bedroom. And he lays me on the bed. "Move in with me here?" he signs. I nod, and I look around, Alfred's already moved my things in here. I have to laugh and I point it out to Buck. He grins. His smile is so sexy. "You don't mind that I will never be able to talk to you, you'll never hear me say out loud how much I love you?" he asks in sign. "If you tell me you love me by your actions it'll speak louder than anything you could ever say" I say kissing him. "I do love you, you know" he signs quickly. "I do, babe" I say softly. "I am sorry, I hurt you by being so afraid" he signs. "I have one question to ask you and then I don't intend to bring it up again unless forced to" I tell Buck. Buck nods. "Why did you fuck me like you did, before that you seemed torn, like there was something you were fighting yourself over?" I ask. Buck sits, and he thinks a bit.

"I knew I was in love with you, I wanted you so badly, and I was so scared, I had to tell you, but I couldn't" he signs. "I couldn't fight my passion for you, I almost managed to tell you, but then you took my paw in yours" he signs and he looks agonized. "You took my paw, and my blood was on fire for you, I couldn't think of anything, but taking you then and there." he signs. And he's looking at the floor. "I knew I bonded you, I could feel it, and I was so scared, I knew then how much you loved me" he signs. "So you were so hot to make me yours, that you couldn't think of anything else?" I ask . He nods. I kiss him. "When you felt the passion and stopped thinking you acted on it, and when you calmed down, you were terrified and ran from me again?" I ask. "You understand?" he asks in sign. "I do" I say. Buck kisses me. His kiss is soft, yet full of passion.

"Enough talk, take me again" he signs. "I want you babe, I have wanted you for so long now" I say softly. He pushes me on my back and he kisses me gently and tenderly. But with great passion. He's hot for me, as I am him. We make out for a long time, we can't stop kissing and stroking each other's bodies. Buck is gorgeous. His body is perfectly built, muscled yet balanced. His uncut dick is thick and big, like Grandpa's. And he has thin black stripes on his White dick. And his barbs are numerous and sharp. It's hot to me. "Take me?" he mouths to me. "Please" I beg him. And he holds my legs up and pushes into me. I growl and buck and cuss and I cum on his firm belly. "Hot for me" he mouths. I pant and whine while he moves deeper and faster in me. I put my arms and legs around him, and pull him tighter to me. He's nuzzling me, all over my face and neck, and he's making me hotter. He thrusts a bit harder, and I see, he's making sure I can take his big dick before he really fucks me. I push back to his balls. And his eyes light up.

"Fuck me, babe" I moan. And he grins, and he's moving deeper and faster inside of me. "I love you" he mouths. "I love my Buck" I say pulling him tighter to me. He's nibbling me a little harder, and I get it, it's how he shows his heat, he can't moan or growl, so he nibbles, and I'll bet he'll bite me like he did last night when he comes. I hump back on him, and I cum hard on his belly again. He's bucking on top of me, and he's tensing up all over, and he convulses on me and he bites my neck fairly hard, and he's shaking and twitching hard, and I feel his cum gushing into me. He cums a lot and very hard. He's panting silently. I look up into his eyes, and his love for me is showing through them.

"I know, babe, it's our beginning, I love you, more than I could ever tell you, Buck" I say stroking his hair. "Please don't ever leave me?" he mouths. And there is a bit of fear in his eyes now. "I could never live without you, Buck, I would die to not have your love" I say as passionately as I can. "Having to wait until you got past your pain almost killed me" I say sadly. He smiles. "Sorry" he signs quickly. "I can understand, I will never leave you, and I'll never hurt you, I swear, my Big Tiger" I say kissing him. He's grinning now. "You don't mind reassuring me?" He signs. "No, I'll need it too from time to time, Big Tiger" I say kissing him.

"Again?" he mouths. I nod. "You never have to ask me that, babe, I want you whenever you want me" I tell him."I'm a bit horny, I haven't had sex much, three times now in three years" he mouths. "That's over now, I'm hoping for three times a day at least" I tell him. He smiles. And we rut our full passions for one another. We spend most of the afternoon and evening fucking. It's been six orgasms for him, and he's not pulled out of me at all. "Babe, I have to tell you, I have to go eat, I'm really hungry now" I say softly. Buck grins. He rubs his stomach. "You're hungry too?" I ask He nods. "You understand me without words" he signs. His eyes are tearing up. "Buck, we will get to know each other, you communicate very well without speech, you're so expressive and your eyes speak volumes to me" I say kissing him. He hugs my neck and he cries. I'll have to get used to that, he cries or laughs and makes no noise at all. "I had prayed someone would love and understand me as you do, but I never thought anyone would" he signs quickly. "Buck, you were made for me, as apparently I was made for you" I say kissing him. "My Lion" he mouths.

He pulls out of me. I whine a bit as he does. He kisses me. "My baby Lion" he signs. We get up, and he takes my arm as we walk across the hall to the dining room. I grin when I see Jerry's friend. I walk up and I introduce myself to him. He's shy, but he's beautiful. Hell, I'm just being vain, he looks like a smaller blue eyed me. He's only 5'10", but he could be my twin. His name is Kenji Kusanagi, and he's got a great smile when he does smile.

"You look much like me" Kenji says happily. Buck is smiling at him. "This is my bond mate, Buck Wilson, and he's mute" I say softly. "He hears and he signs or mouths" I say grinning. "You got him" Jerry says hugging me. And he hugs Buck hard. "I'm sorry I was so rough on you, Buck," Jerry says. "I'm glad you were" he signs. 'You were right, Jerry" he signs. I hug Jerry. "Thanks for your help" I say softly. "I wanted him to have you, and I knew how much you loved him" Jerry says hugging me tightly. "I want my friends happy" he says. "I'm glad you are my friend, Jerry, and you love my Grandpa so much as well" I say hugging him.

Alfred pulls at my arm. "Claude, your Oto-Sama is napping, would you go get him, I would not want him to miss dinner" Alfred says smiling. "He'll want to know that Buck bonded you too" Alfred says. I kiss Alfred, and I kiss Buck, and I run up to my old bedroom. I walk in and I lay by my Bear Father, and I stroke him gently. As I touch him I flash on Kenji fainting when Takeru kisses him, my Father will soon have a love of his own. I can see it, and I'm thrilled to see the love in Kenji's eyes as he faints. I need to sound him out about it, make sure he's ready for this. He wakes, and he hugs me. "Are you happy you got him, my son?" he asks. "I am, Papa Bear, I am happy you approve, and I am so glad you were here" I say hugging him. "Claude, he will love you as long as he lives, he's loyal, and he's obviously in love, he fought against his pains so hard, even though Jerry had to push him past it all" Takeru says. "Will he let you still have sex with me?" he asks. "We bonded openly, Father Bear" I say softly. "Will you make love to me, Father?" I ask. He smiles.

And he pushes me on my back and he slides into me. We kiss deep and passionately. "I am glad for my son, and for me too, he loves you , and he won't keep you from your Papa Bear" Takeru says happily. And he speeds up in me. "I am hungry my son, so we will be quick now" he says nuzzling my neck. I roar and cum on him and as my ass squeezes his dick, he roars and fills me full. "I have no words for how much I love my son" Takeru says panting. "You won't be lonely anymore, my son, he will love you so much, when I nor Jim can be here to love you" Takeru says. "Are you lonely, Papa San?" I ask him. "I am, only since I met you, and I realize what it feels like to be so loved, Yoshi has always loved me, but having your love, I feel fulfilled but I am wanting to settle down, my Lion son, you have, and my Yoshi has, you both have very worthy Tigers to love you, and I would want a Big Cat of my own" Takeru says. "I am loved by you, and my Yoshi, but I am lonely for a mate of my own now" he says softly. "But you won't be lonely for long, Oto-Sama" I tease him. Takeru looks at me oddly. "I saw it myself, Father" I say softly and I kiss him.

"What?" he asks. "Jerry brought a school friend home for dinner, he's a Japanese transfer student, he's a beautiful Lion, Father, I know you'll like him" I say kissing him. "A hot young Lion would be nice" he muses. "I hope he will like me" Takeru says nervously. "I have it on good authority he'll love you" I tease him. "Edward?" Takeru asks still nervous. "No, Alfred, and my own visions, Papa-San." I say softly. Takeru looks happy again. "He'll love you a lot, beloved Father, and he's a good Lion, he'll be good for you, Papa" I say kissing him. "He will be to you as I would have if I was not your son, Takeru" I say kissing him. "You are my son, and you love me and are hot for me, my Claude" Takeru says smiling. "But I know from Rory and Grandpa I couldn't take you as mine, but I would have if it were possible, Papa Bear" I say softly. "Kenji will love you like I would wish to, he'll be good to my beloved Father, and he will love you as I wish my Father to be loved, like Harry loves Dad" I say stroking his hair.

Takeru brushes his hair and I brush his fur a bit. "Wanting me to make a good impression on him?" he asks teasingly. "I am, I would be happy that he loves you like I do" I say softly. Takeru pulls me to the bed. "Would you be happy for me if I bonded someone one day?" Takeru asks me, taking my paw in his. "If he really loved my Oto-Sama, and made him happy, I'd be so thrilled, I want you happy, Papa Bear" I say hugging him. Takeru hugs me. "Papa San, you and your happiness mean the world to me" I say smiling. Takeru has a single tear in his eye. "My son loves me so" he says quietly. "My Papa Bear makes me proud and full of love to be his son, I understand now why Yoshi was always so proud to be your son, because I am too now" I say quietly.

And he stands up and takes my arm. Buck walks in. "I want to thank you for approving of me" Buck signs. "Buck, you love him as much as he loves you, I could see it, I know you'll make him very happy" Takeru says kissing Buck. "I hope you'll come to see me as your Father too" Takeru says softly. Buck tears up. I explain to Takeru in Japanese how Buck lost his parents when he was young. And that he was raised by Jerry's parents. Takeru hugs him and he sits Buck down on the bed, and holds him tightly as Buck weeps. "You are my son, you are just as much my son as Claude, or my Yoshi, or my Yoshi's beautiful Daisuke" Takeru says softly. "Both of my sons mated beautiful White Bengal Tigers" Takeru says stroking the side of Buck's face. Buck smiles softly. "You love me?" he signs. "I do, sweet Tiger, you are honest, and genuine and a joyous soul despite life's pains, you will be good for my Claude, you will keep him happy" Takeru says softly. "Just as he will make you happy, and keep you feeling loved" Takeru says. Buck hugs him. And he gets up and hugs me. "I love you so much, Claude" he signs to me. I kiss him.

"We need to go to dinner" I say softly. I take Buck's arm and I take Takeru's arm and we all go down to dinner together. Takeru is stunned when he sees Kenji. He's making guttural noises now. Kenji turns and smiles at Takeru. Takeru looks like he's been hit. He's a bit unsteady on his feet. Buck takes his arm. And walks him to the living room couch. I flash on how it will play out from here. Papa-San will take strength from knowing his son approves and he'll work up his nerve and kiss Kenji. And Kenji will faint for him like I did for Buck.

I quickly talk to Kenji in Japanese. I tell him that my Oto-Sama likes him a lot, he thinks Kenji is beautiful. Kenji blushes. "He is a beautiful Spectacle Bear" he muses aloud. "I would be pleased if you two were happy together" I tell him. "I know of you from Jerry, and he felt you were perfect for Papa San, and Jerry got me my Buck" I say softly. "I know who he is, Claude, I am but a student and he is important and rich" Kenji says softly. "He will not care, he would love you, no matter who you are" I say softly.

"I did not know before I saw him, but I did recognize him on sight." Kenji says. "Could you love him?" I ask. "That is all that is important here, if you love him and he loves you" I say smiling."He is so beautiful of a Bear" Kenji muses. Takeru walks over and he looks determined. I have seen that same look on my own face often enough. He's going to try to bond Kenji while his nerve is up. And he grabs Kenji hard and kisses him. Kenji faints right away. Takeru looks so happy. I Kiss him. "I am so happy for my Oto-Sama" I say smiling. "It is fate, my son, you bonded with my help and my presence and I bonded also with your help and you being at my side, my beloved Lion son." He says happily.

Buck hugs me tightly. "They bonded?" he asks me mouthing the words. "They did, and our Bear Father has a Lion of his own now" I say. Buck and I lean over and kiss Takeru. He's happy. "Our anniversaries will be on the same day, Papa San" I say grinning.. "I will bond him and then call my Yoshi" Takeru says smiling."May I call him Father, I need to, I need to tell him of my beautiful Tiger." I beg Papa San. "I will still call him tonight, but yes, my son, call your Onii-Chan" Takeru says happily. And he and Kenji go off to bond.

I sit on the couch and I call Onii-Chan. "I got a big Tiger of my own, Onii-Chan," I say happily when he answers. "Papa-San told me of your Buck, then you got him?" Yoshi asks. "I did, and I'm very happy, he's beautiful and a wonderful lover" I say softly. "Oto-Sama says he's a White Bengal?" Yoshi asks. "He is" I say in answer. Yoshi laughs. "So is my Daisuke, he is beautiful too" Yoshi says. "I knew he would be, and I can't wait to meet him, Onii-Chan" I say happily. "We are coming on Monday" Yoshi says happily. "Yoshi, I"m so happy now, Oto-Sama is all I'd hoped he'd be, wise, loving, and a hell of a good lover" I say softly. "And I'm proud to have you as my brother for real, I love Rory too and I am so happy now" I tell him. "I am happy too, I love my Daisuke and I am glad for how you and Oto-Sama bonded, he called me and he was so joyous, he's a happy Bear now" Yoshi says.

"Onii-Chan, he's even happier now, Buck's cousin Jerry fixed him up with a cute Lion about our age, and they bonded" I say softly. As protective of Oto-Sama as Yoshi is I probably ought to have worked up to it. But Yoshi and I have always had a tight bond of love and trust. "Is he a good Lion, Claude?" Yoshi asks. "I approve of him, he is a student and he loves Oto-Sama, and they bonded like we Lions do, I think he will be good for Takeru" I say calmly. "Claude, I will call you right back, I must talk to Daisuke now" he says. And he hangs up. He didn't sound mad but I wonder if he is. Yoshi can be guarded if he's upset. He has a bit more of a temper than Takeru. But he loves our Father, and he wants him happy.

Buck holds me tightly. "Did it go badly?" he signs to me. "No, babe, I have to wonder though what's on Yoshi's mind though" I say softly. Buck kisses me and we make out on the couch for a while. He's got my blood up for sure. And he lays me back and makes love to me. He's really hot for me. And he's nibbling me rather hard at times. I lose it and I can't think of anything for the pleasure he's giving me with that huge dick. And he nips my neck hard when he comes. I'll have to get used to that eventually. He's looking into my eyes with so much love. "I love you too, Buck" I moan. He's so happy now. I'm soaked in his sweat and I can't seem to get enough of his scent now that we've bonded.

My cell rings. Yoshi is calling back. "Onii-Chan, we are coming now, I have rearranged some things as has Daisuke, we wish to meet your Buck, and I want to meet Dad's Lion" he says. "Please come get us?" he asks. "Are you upset, Yoshi?" I ask. "No, I wish to meet this Lion, and I miss you as well" he says. "Please don't tell Dad I'm coming early?" he asks. "I won't" I tell him. He tells me about when to come get them. "I'll be there and I'll bring my Buck" I say softly. Hearing his name gets Buck cuddly with me and he's licking my neck. "I would speak with your Tiger, but Oto-Sama tells me he's mute" Yoshi says. "He is, but we communicate well, and he's a wonderful lover" I say softly.

"You sound very happy, and it's why I want to come, I want to meet Dad's Lion, but I know how much you love him, I trust that you would not let them bond if he would not be good to Dad" Yoshi says. "You love him like I do" Yoshi says quietly. "I do, and I'm so proud to know him now, and to know he is my sire" I say softly. "He is quite a Bear" Yoshi says softly. "They are very much in love, Onii-Chan, you'll see it when you see them together" I say softly. Buck gets my attention. He shows me his phone. He took a picture of them on the couch when Kenji came to. And they're cuddled up and very much in love. I have him email me that pic and I send it to Yoshi.

"He is a beautiful Lion, Claude, and he has a lot of love in his eyes for our Oto-Sama" he says. "Dad has a lot of love in his eyes for him as well" Yoshi adds. "I didn't know Buck had taken that picture, I would have if I'd been thinking clearly but Buck and I hadn't been bonded long" I say happily. "He is a smart Tiger, like mine" Yoshi says happily. Buck signs to me of how touched he was seeing them in love and it made him take that picture. I tell Yoshi. And he laughs. "He likes our Dad doesn't he?" Yoshi asks. "He does, he was so happy when Takeru told him how much he approved of him for me, and that he was as much his son as you and I and Daisuke." I tell Yoshi. Yoshi laughs. "Dad wanted more sons, but my mom was too sick" Yoshi says happily. "But he loves and accepts my Daisuke as his son too" Yoshi says softly. "He thought it was funny, you took Daisuke, I took Buck, Dad took Harry and Rory mated an English Siberian , and now Oto-Sama got his Lion, we all went for Big Cats" I say. "We are a traditional family and mating Big Cats is obviously one of our traditions" Yoshi says laughing. "I'm glad you're coming with your Bengal, I miss you and how much fun it is for us to just hang out together" I say. "I do as well, Claude, but I want to see your Tiger and I am anxious to meet Dad's Lion" he says. "Yoshi, I know you trust me, and it's just that you love your Dad so much" I say. "My Onii-Chan always understood me so well" Yoshi says softly. "Yoshi, one thing I was thrilled about when I found out is that it mean you were my brother as much as Rory is" I say. He laughs. "At least we know why we have always been close, we share Oto-Sama's blood" he says happily. "Yoshi, I'm really proud of having his blood in me and sharing that blood with you" I say.

"We will see you tonight, Onii-Chan, we have much packing to do" he says. And hangs up. I go tell Edward and Alfred. They're happy too. Alfred is sitting on the couch with Manuel curled up next to him, and Edward and Bernard are sitting next to them also curled up. And they are so happy with their mates. I kiss Bernard and tell him how happy he seems to be making my Edward. Bernard grins. This place has a lot of love going on. We're all honeymooning, even Sam and Oscar. They're out on the patio in the hot tub, and Sam pulls Oscar out of it and they make love on the grass. It's hot to see two beautiful Bulls make love. I briefly wonder what it would have been like if I had of met Sam before he met Oscar. He'd of made an amazing mate. But life works the way it's supposed to and I have to admit I'm very happy with my Buck.

I tell Buck I need to call Dad and he nods at me. I ask him to stay with me, and he hugs me, and puts me in his lap. He's softly petting me and his soft touch calms me a lot.

I call Dad, and I hope he'll take this well. He's happy when he answers the phone. "Dad, things have gone well" I say happily. "You and Takeru are getting close?" Dad asks. "Yeah, and he bonded a cute young Lion, and he's very happy now, and he loves me, he's a Hell of a Bear, just like my Daddy is a Hell of a Lion" I say softly. "He's impressive alright" Dad says. "Dad, something happened, and I hope that you'll take it well?" I ask. "Alfred called me, I know you bonded him, Claude" Dad says. "It's only been an hour or two since we bonded Dad, and I wanted you to know as soon as possible" I say quietly. "Does he love you?" Dad asks "He does, and I've been in love with him since I first saw him" I tell Dad. "Who and What?" Dad asks. "His name is Buck Wilson, and he's a big built White Bengal Tiger, Dad" I say softly. Buck's nuzzling my neck now. He looks so happy. Dad laughs, "We love our Tigers, don't we boy?" he asks happily. "Yoshi bonded a White Bengal Tiger last week, and they're coming to see us soon" I say. Dad laughs. "You two are running true to your blood, Takeru loves Big Cats too" Dad says softly. "So do you, and my Buck is as big as Harry, and hot, he's a White furred version of Papa Harry" I say softly. "I got that from you too, Dad" I say smiling. "Dad, his Kenji looks just like me, except for his Blue eyes" I tell him. "Damn," Dad says. "I hope he's a bottom?" Dad asks. "He is" I say. "Claude, I've been hot for you for a long time, but even though you're not of my blood, I couldn't come on to my son, I know you'd of been OK with it, you fuck your Grandpa any chance you get, but if Takeru will share his Lion with me as I've shared my son with him?" Dad asks. "I think he will, Dad, Takeru loves you like a brother, he told me so" I say softly. "I'm glad, we only ever really fought over you, and I hope we can be as we once were, Claude" Dad says softly. "We both loved and wanted you too much, I couldn't give you up and he wanted you so badly" Dad says softly.

"Dad, I love you, and I always will, I feel bad that you two fought so over me" I say sadly. "No, we both wanted you so badly, if we hadn't of been so proud, we could have shared you all along" Dad says softly. "Takeru said the same thing, he could have kept your friendship and still had me if he wasn't so proud" I tell Dad. "We both couldn't stand the thought of losing you Claude, and I'm happy now." Dad says. "Can I talk to Buck?" he asks. "He's mute Dad, he signs and he mouths words but he can't talk" I tell Dad. And I explain how it happened. Dad's sympathetic. "You obviously don't care that he can't talk" Dad says. "I took sign and a lip reading course for deaf patients" I tell Dad. "He must be so happy that you accept him" Dad says. "He is, Daddy, and he really loves and needs me, as much as I need him" I say quietly.

"Who are you talking to, my Lion son?" I hear Takeru asking from the stairs. "Dad" I say softly. "Would he talk to me?" Takeru asks "Dad, Takeru would like to talk to you if you would?" I ask. "I will, Claude" Dad says. I hand Takeru my phone. And he walks off talking to Dad.

Buck pulls me back down onto the couch and he's nuzzling me all over. I kiss him deeply and he pushes his massive dick in me. And I growl as he slips gently into me. I wrap my arms and legs and tail around him. And he grins. "I love that" he mouths to me. "I love you, baby" I say softly. "I love you, more than I can say" he mouths. I giggle a little bit. He smiles. He knows. He works me over passionately and he's sweating a lot, soaking me in his scent. Which I love. He's marking me as his. And that makes me so happy. We're all in love and happy.

Buck is nipping me as he's been doing. I can see it is how he shows his passions. He can't moan though he does make an odd sort of guttural grunt when he's pumping me hard. He seems to have learned to nip me a little bit more gently now. And it fires up my blood. I watch his face as he fucks me and it's very expressive. And he's cumming and he's roaring silently. And it's hot in an odd sort of way. He's panting and holding me tightly now. "I love you, Buck, I'm so glad you're finally mine now" I say stroking his face gently. "I love you, Claude" he mouths to me. And I feel so happy now.

Takeru comes down and hands me my phone back. "We're coming, Takeru wants us to come visit, he's staying a few weeks since he's got his Kenji, and we want to get close again" Dad says. "Come pick us up tonight?" he asks. "I will, when?" I ask. Dad gives me the pick up info. I have to laugh. they'll get in about thirty minutes after Yoshi does. (I have no idea how things will be though, I'll have one more pair of animals to pick up at the airport) (My family will be whole again and with me)

I get up when Buck gets off of me. And I pull him into the kitchen. "I know he and Harry are coming" Alfred says. "Do you know Yoshi and his Daisuke are coming too?" I ask. 'No, where will we put them all" Alfred says. "We'll just have to double up, you know some of us will probably sleep together" I say shaking my mane. Buck and I go hole up in our bedroom and spend the afternoon fucking. He barbs me, and he signs to me asking me if I'd have his cubs if I could. I tell him I would have his cubs by the litter if I could. He cums hard silently roaring. We fuck a few more times and he's an amazing Tiger lover. We get up finally about 6PM and we shower together, Buck takes me hard and fast in the shower. And we get dressed.

We sit and eat. Takeru comments on how dressed up we are. "Dad's coming and we have to go pick him and Harry up" I say softly. "Would you let me and Kenji come too?" he asks. I nod. Buck grins. I whisper to Buck that he'll need to drive too. "We'll need space though, Buck will drive too, so we'll have enough room for all." I say smiling. Thank God I had already gotten him a car. He loved mine so I bought him one like it, except his is Black where mine is Mocha Brown. He fussed a bit, as it was before we bonded, but he loves his Mercedes as much as I love mine. Buck is a good driver too. He's already told me if we go somewhere together he wants to drive. And he wept when I agreed and told him he was my husband and I'd always defer to him.

Takeru looks at me oddly. But says nothing. We wait for him and Kenji to dress. "I will go with you, my son" Takeru says firmly. Kenji goes with Buck and Takeru gets in with me. We pull out and head for the airport. "Who else is coming, my Lion son?" Takeru asks me in a firm authoritative voice. I sigh. "Yoshi swore me to silence but he and Daisuke are coming too" I say softly. "This is good, you know to be completely honest with your loving Bear Father, Jim says you always were with him too" Takeru says proudly. "Why is your brother coming?" Takeru asks. "He wants to meet Buck and he wants to meet your Lion, and he and Daisuke decided not to wait until they were already planning to come" I say softly. "They'll be coming in about a half hour before Dad does" I say smiling. "I see"Takeru says grinning. "I should have known he would come when you told him of me and my Kenji" Takeru says softly. "He was already closer to us than Tokyo, he was in Honolulu at a conference, and he took his Daisuke" Takeru says smiling. I laugh. "A honeymoon of sorts in Hawaii, I'll have to do that with Buck when I can" I say softly. "I will take Kenji somewhere soon, but he is to come home with me to Tokyo and he has much to adjust to, and he will transfer to a College there" Takeru says smiling. "It may be a while, but I am staying longer here, we will honeymoon and I will spend more time with my son" he says taking my paw and kissing it. "I am so happy you will be so loved now, Father" I tell him. Takeru's happy now. "I meant more than by me" I say quietly. He smiles at me. "I am thrilled at how much my beloved son loves me and a his pride at being mine" Takeru says softly.

My cell rings. I activate my S550's Bluetooth link and answer it. Rory? "Claude, we're at the airport now, I should have called you sooner but we're here, I mustered out earlier than I thought I could, and we just wanted to come home" Rory says. "I'm on my way to the airport now, Dad and Harry are coming as are Yoshi and his Daisuke" I say softly. "Should we get a hotel room?" Rory asks. "No, we'll have room, and I'm thrilled my big Brother is home now, and I can't wait to meet your Tiger, or to have you meet mine" I say laughing. "You got a Tiger too?" Rory asks. "I did, he's a big beautiful White Bengal and he's mute, and Grandpa bonded Jerry" I say softly. "Lot going on as usual, little Bro" Rory says. "Where are you?" I ask. "We're at a small coffee shop in the airport" he says. "We'll be there very soon, and Takeru is with me as is his new Lion" I say softly. Rory laughs. "We'll come find you and then pick up Yoshi and Daisuke and Dad will be in about thirty minutes later" I say. "Does Dad know you and Burt are coming?" I ask. "No, I wanted it to be a surprise" Rory says. "I'm so glad you'll be home" I say happily. "I've missed you, Rory, and I'm so glad you weren't injured or killed, babe" I say fighting tears. "Claude, I love you too, I've missed you, and I hope you'll like Burt" he says quietly. "Does he love you?" I ask. "He loves me a lot" Rory says lovingly. "Then I'll love him on sight" I tell Rory. He hangs up.

Takeru laughs. "It'll be crowded at home, but it will be nice, to be surrounded by my loving family, to have my sons all with me and my loving Lion" he says grinning. "Takeru, you're sure you're OK with Dad being here too?"I ask. "I am, I asked him to come, he and I have made up, and I love him as you loved Yoshi before you knew he really was your brother, Jim is my Onii-Chan" Takeru says softly. I kiss him. And we get to the airport. I park and we find Buck and Kenji. And we go to the coffee shop. I see Rory and I run to him. We hug and cry on each other's shoulders for a bit. Buck's smiling at Burt. He's a Siberian version of Buck. Same height and build, just orange and black fur and green eyes. set them apart. I crack up. "He's built like Daisuke, my son" Takeru says grinning. "Hell, he looks like Papa Harry" I say stunned at the resemblance. Buck's grinning. I hug Burt. "Welcome to the family, things are a bit busy right now, but I'm glad to meet you," I say hugging him tightly. Burt is smiling softly. "He's a bit shy with new people, Claude" Rory says. I laugh. We sit and have coffee waiting for Yoshi and Daisuke to land.

Burt is shy. But he's got a warm personality when he opens up. And he's got a dry sense of humor. Rory seems fascinated by Buck. And I had no idea Burt knew sign. His nephew is deaf and he learned it. Buck's very happy at that. We're a happy little group now. Kenji's opening up a bit too. He's so in love with Takeru and he's happy Buck and I approve of him. But he's a bit nervous about meeting Yoshi as well.

What amazes me the most though is how much Rory seems to like Buck. And how happy he is to see Takeru again. I know he and I both missed him when he stopped coming around. And he and Takeru talk about that and how hard Takeru fought for me. Rory isn't surprised.

But he's wanting to talk to me alone I know. But not sure how to get me alone. I stand up and I take Rory's paw and I excuse us for a few minutes. And he and I walk over to a bench and sit. "Claude, how does it feel to be his?" Rory asks. "Dad says you went right to him and told him he'd always be your Dad, but it had to shake you up" Rory says quietly. "It did, but Dad loved me, despite not having fathered me, Takeru loves me so much because he did, and he hurt so much for so long, he cried when I called him Oto-Sama the first time I spoke to him" I tell Rory. "He's a good Bear, Rory, and he has always loved us both, even before he knew I was his, I was six when he found out" I tell him. "I know, he's called me since you called him, he loves us both" Rory says smiling. "I'm happy, I have Dad and I have Takeru, and they both love me so much, and I have my Tiger and I have my brother back" I say softly. "Things will be crowded for a while, with everyone at the Condo, but things will settle down soon" I tell Rory. "Who's there now?" Rory asks. "Sam and Oscar, a pair of hot and good natured Bulls who run a gym, Edward, Alfred's natural son and his mate, Alfred and his Manuel, Buck and I, Takeru and Kenji, Grandpa and Jerry, they bonded finally" I tell my Polar Bear brother. "Grandpa Walt finally took that sweet Tiger" Rory says grinning. "Yeah, and Dad and Harry will be here, Yoshi and his White Bengal, Daisuke too" I say smiling. "Where will we all sleep?" Rory asks. "I have a guest room" I say softly. "And you know how we all are, I am sure some of us will sleep together anyway" I say grinning. Rory laughs. "I wouldn't mind sleeping with you and Buck, I've missed you so much, Claude, and I'm hot to fuck you, and Buck's so sexy" Rory says. "What about Burt?" I ask. "He's fine with me sleeping with you, and he likes Buck, and he'll want to fuck you too, he's a versatile though he is fine with mostly bottoming for me, he'll be hot to get into your ass" Rory says smiling. Buck walks up and sits by us. "Baby, we'll take Rory and Burt in to bed with us so we'll all have a place to sleep" I say. Buck grins. He signs to me that he wants them both, he wants to watch Rory fuck me and he wants in Burt's ass. I tell Rory what Buck said and he cracks up. "Burt knows sign, he probably told Buck he wanted him. "Babe, Buck can hear, he can't talk, but he hears perfectly" I tell Rory. Buck nods.

"I gotta hand it to you, Claude, Buck is a beautiful White Bengal" Rory says grinning. Buck blushes. Buck asks me in sign to ask Rory if Rory will fuck him. I laugh. "Bro, Buck wants to give you a piece of White Tiger tail" I say laughing. Rory grins. "I miss my brother and I want him first but I would be happy to, and maybe you'd like some Polar Bear tail too?" he asks. Buck laughs. Buck stands up and he hugs Rory tightly. Rory hugs him back. "I can tell how much you love Claude, and you must be a Hell of a Tiger to catch my little brother's heart" Rory says. Buck's smiling.

"How's Grandpa?" Rory asks. "Happy as Hell now that he's got Jerry" I tell him. "I've missed Walt a lot, he's a great Grizzly" Rory says.

Takeru comes up to us. "We must go get your other brother now, Claude" Takeru says. So we go to the gate. Yoshi bounds down the hall and we hug tightly. His Daisuke comes lumbering down the hall and he looks so much like Buck my jaw drops when I see him. Yoshi looks at Buck and he cracks up. Buck hugs him tightly. "You are indeed a beautiful White Bengal Tiger, Buck" Yoshi says. "So is your Daisuke" I tell Yoshi. And I tell Daisuke in Japanese how happy I am to meet him and see how much he loves my Yoshi. He grins. "I am happy to see you as well, I see you and Yoshi share a love of White Tigers" he says smiling. Buck signs to me his surprise of how much Daisuke looks like him. I lean forward and kiss my Buck. He's smiling. Burt wanders up to Buck and Daisuke. And he's an orange and black furred version of both of them. And they all bear a strong resemblance to Papa Harry too. I crack up laughing. Rory hugs me. "We really are showing the same taste in mates" he says hugging Yoshi. Yoshi grins. "I have missed seeing you as well, Rory" Yoshi says.

Takeru hugs Rory. "I missed you as well, Rory, you are a wonderful Polar Bear and I have missed my Polar Bear son so" Takeru says quietly. Rory hugs him tightly. "It was so hard, we adored you, and we loved having you with us, and then you just stopped coming to see us" Rory says sadly. "I am sorry, Rory, I know you might understand why now" Takeru says. "You could have kept coming to see us, and spent all the time you wanted to with us, and with your Lion son" Rory says firmly. "Dad would have forgiven you like he has now," Rory says. "I was not Bear enough, I would have ached to be able to take my Claude home with me" Takeru says sadly. "Water under the bridge, both of you" I say softly. Yoshi nods. "My Onii-Chans, we are a family now, we have been, though far apart but that ends now" Yoshi says smiling. "My wise Onii-Chan" I tease Yoshi.

We go get Rory and Burt, and Yoshi and Daisuke's bags, and Buck and Daisuke carry them to our cars. And we go back and wait for Dad and Papa Harry. Kenji seems a bit shy now. I hug him. "He is so loved by you all, I hope you all approve of me" Kenji says. "I'll talk to him, Claude" Yoshi says. And he takes Kenji back to the coffee shop. We go to a table at the food court and we all sit and talk. Buck and Burt and Daisuke sit and talk a while. Burt is good at sign. And Buck looks really happy to be able to be involved in their conversation. They seem to be getting closer now. Rory and I and Takeru talk. Rory brings Takeru up to date on his life since they last saw each other. I sit and listen, some of it I hadn't heard either. Rory's happy to be home though. And he's so thrilled Takeru is here, he really must have missed Papa-San. And Takeru seems as proud of Rory as he is of me. It's a great moment. And I look over and our Tigers are bonding. They're becoming good friends too. Laughing and joking and getting along well.(They do get very close along with Jerry)

I am so happy now. And I hear my name paged to the private terminal main desk. I hug Takeru and I leave. Rory's a few steps behind me. Like me he knows it's Dad paging me. I stop and wait for him. "Dad'll love seeing you're here, Big Bro" I say smiling and I put my arm around his waist. As we walk Rory looks lost in thought. "Do you regret not being able to take me or Grandpa?" Rory asks. "Rory, I have felt very sad at not getting my Bears, I'd of loved you, or Grandpa so much, only getting Buck eased that pain" I say softly. "Me too, Burt is all I could want, he's a beautiful Tiger and he loves me like you would have, he's similar to you, but softer" Rory says. "I love you, Rory, I always will, I'm glad you have Burt, and we'll be as close as we always were, and you should see how happy Grandpa and Jerry are" I say smiling. "Jerry worked hard to help me get Buck, and he set up Takeru and Kenji, and he fixed up Emil and a cousin of his" I tell Rory. Rory laughs. "No wonder you two became friends he's so much like you" Rory says."He's a great Tiger and he's a good friend" I say softly.

We get to the desk. And Dad runs up and hugs us both."I didn't know you'd be here, Rory" Dad says happily. Papa Harry hugs me. And Rory and I crack up. "What?" Harry asks. "I can't wait til you see my Buck, and Rory's Burt, and Yoshi's Daisuke" I tease him. "Y'all are almost identical" Rory says laughing hard. "Damn, four hot Bengals" Dad moans. "Burt's a Siberian, Dad" Rory says.

"And Buck and Daisuke are White Bengals, Dad" I say laughing. "I've never had a White Tiger" Dad muses. I hug Dad. "My Daddy, the horndog Lion" I tease him. Dad looks at me lovingly. "I am still your Daddy?" he asks. "I know you have gotten close to Takeru now, Claude" Dad says softly. "I told you, you'd always be my Daddy, I love Takeru, and I love you too, you didn't father me but you raised me so lovingly, I'd never stop loving you, Dad" I say hugging him. Dad's grinning. "I am still afraid I'll lose you at times, Claude, you love him so much" Dad says softly. "I told you, I will always be your son too" I tell Dad. "I love you too, Dad" I say softly. I hug him. "I'll get past this, but it's why I paged you, I wanted to make sure before we were all together" Dad says sadly.

"Jim-Chan, he is our son, he is as much yours as he is mine" Takeru says walking up to us. They hug tightly. "I have missed you, Onii-Chan" Takeru says tearfully. "I'm so glad we can share him, but he has been with you now, and I was afraid he would not want me as he said" Dad says. "You don't trust me, Dad?" I ask. "No Son, I am just too scared to lose you" Dad says. "Jim, he will not abandon his fathers, he loves us both, and he has refused to choose between us, and he has said this repeatedly" Takeru says calmly. "I know, but I can't stop being afraid" Dad says softly. "Claude, I think Jim and I need to talk, take Harry and go back to the others" Takeru says. I kiss Dad. "I'll never stop being your son, Dad, I swear" I say kissing him. "I am your son, Dad, and I love you so much" Rory says hugging him. "He's my brother and he'll always be my brother" Rory says quietly. Dad nods. And it seems to have helped him.

Rory and I walk Harry back to the others. Harry cracks up seeing Buck, Burt, and Daisuke, and he sits with them. And they all chat happily. Rory and I sit down too. Buck and Harry seem to be getting along well. But all four of our Tigers have become friends so quickly.

Yoshi walks back arm in arm with Kenji. "I take it you like him, Onii-Chan?" I ask him. "I do, he is a good Lion as are you" Yoshi says. I hug him. "He loves our father so much, and he is a good Lion, Yoshi" I tell him. "Where is Jim-Chan?" Yoshi asks me. "Our fathers are talking, Dad's a bit insecure and Takeru is trying to help him" I tell him. "I can understand how he feels, Claude, but it will do him good, Papa-San had to cope with similar feelings for years, it will help him overall" Yoshi says smiling. "I guess" I say smiling. "Claude, Dad has had you for a long time as his, he's lost both of our Moms and his own Dad, he's terrified of loss, and he was so afraid he'd lose me in Iraq" Rory says. "He's gonna be sensitive" Rory says. I nod, feeling like I really don't know what to say here.

Buck walks over and kisses me. And I feel better. My mute Tiger knew I needed his support. "You seem sad, baby" he signs to me. "I am, I am surprised my Dad is so insecure now" I sign back. "He would not want to lose you, I wouldn't either, baby Lion" Buck signs back. "I swore to him he would always be my Dad as well" I sign feeling sad. Buck kisses me again. "He is hurting, he loves you, he is as afraid as you were, you knew I'd come to you, but you ached to not know when" Buck signs. I lean up and I kiss him. Buck smiles at me. I can feel myself falling for him all over again.

Dad and Takeru come back to us. And Dad looks better now. Rory and I hug him tightly. And Harry hugs him too. "I missed you too, Papa Harry" Rory says. "I did as well, Harry, I'm glad you came with Dad" I say smiling. Harry's happy. "It almost looks like a Tiger convention" he says grinning. "Well, you know Grandpa's Jerry is at home too, and Emil got a sweet younger White Tiger as well." I tease him. "Let's go home now" Rory says grinning. "Is your condo big enough for us all" Dad asks. "We may have to double up but I figure enough of us will sleep with one another anyway." I say smiling. "And you guys haven't met Sam and Oscar yet" I say grinning. "Who?" Rory asks. "They're a pair of power lifter Bulls, Sam is big and Macho like Grandpa, and Oscar is big built and sweet just like my Buck" I say smiling. "I know you had to have fucked Sam" Harry says laughing. "I have, and he's a magnificent fuck" I say smiling. "Oscar is a warm and tender lover" Buck signs to me. Burt and I laugh. "My baby is vouching for Oscar as a lover" I say laughing harder. "Dad why don't you ride with me, we'll all have to split up" I say softly. "Ten of us means five per car" Rory says.

It splits up as I'd of expected. Our Tigers stay together and Kenji goes with them. I've got Dad, and Takeru and Rory and Yoshi. Dad sits up front with me when I ask him to. And he's pleased. Takeru nods his agreement when I ask Dad. It will be crowded at home. I have the bedroom for Rory and Burt since they're staying for good. And one other bedroom and the guest room. I'm short a bedroom but we'll make do. Thank God there are 7 bathrooms. We should be OK.

We get home, and Bernard and Manuel come out to help us with the bags. I introduce Dad to Edward as we walk in. Dad hugs Edward tightly. "I can see it, he really is Alfred's son" Dad says smiling. "He went and got himself a beautiful Bull too, Dad, just like Alfred did" I say laughing. Manuel blushes as does Bernard.

Alfred hugs Dad tightly. "He's made me so proud, we have good sons, Jim" Alfred says happily. Dad looks surprised. "You're not home now, Dad, he's a lot looser now, our Fox is very happy, he loves his son, like you love yours" I tell Dad. He hugs me."I'm sorry, Claude, I know I was too insecure" Dad says. "You love me, Dad, and I love you, I think I can understand" I say smiling.

Alfred shows Rory and Burt to their bedroom. Edward shows Dad and Harry to their room and I take Yoshi and Daisuke to the guest room. I apologize for giving them the guest room but I hadn't realized I'd have enough rooms. I do a quick nose count. Sam and Oscar, me and Buck, Grandpa and Jerry, Alfred and Manuel, Edward and Bernard, Rory and Burt, Dad and Harry and Yoshi and Daisuke. I should be short a bedroom. Alfred tells me he and Edward decided that the four of them should share a room for now. He'll leave on Sunday with Manuel, and that Dad will stay until after next weekend. I tease Alfred about honeymooning at home. And he laughs. "I will, my Bull and I will be alone and happy" he says. I hug him tightly. "I am glad you helped with my Edward, Claude" he says hugging me tightly. "I love you, Alfred, I have for so long, I was happy to help you get Manuel and to bring you and Edward together" I say kissing him. "I'm so happy you and Edward helped me stay calm and get my Buck"I say smiling. "We had to, you help everyone else, and we had to help you" Alfred says smiling.

I hear a lot of laughter from the patio. Our Tigers are in the hot tub. Jerry's with them too. And they're laughing and having a good time. Buck's so happy, with Burt and Jerry knowing sign he feels a part of the conversation. Rory comes into the kitchen and hugs me. "He's something else, so happy, and joyous, and Edward told me how he lost his voice, he's not bitter at all, just happy to be loved and understood" Rory says. "Aren't we all, big brother?" I ask. Rory smiles. "I missed you cause you always understood and loved me, Claude" Rory says happily. "I was thrilled when Dad told me you'd be coming out here, Rory, I've missed having you around, I missed your joy, and your laughter and your love and support" I say curling into his side. We're watching our Tigers getting acquainted so happily. "Buck's so happy to just be accepted by them, Bro" I tell Rory. "The things we all take for granted" Rory says hugging me tighter to him. "I'm so happy to be home, with my own Tiger and my Brother and his, and our family being here was more than I could have hoped for." Rory says happily. "All of our family is here, Dad and Alfred, and Takeru and Yoshi" I say grinning.

Grandpa walks in and hugs us both. "My boys" he says happily. We hug him back tightly. "I've missed you too, you horny old Grizzly" Rory teases Grandpa. Grandpa hugs Rory so tightly. "I was afraid you'd get hurt or not come back to us alive, Rory, I'm so glad you did" Grandpa says quietly. "I know you know why I had to go, Grandpa" Rory says softly. "I did, but I prayed you'd come home OK, and you did" Grandpa says smiling. Rory hugs him back. I tear up. I'm feeling kind of emotional now. I know what Grandpa meant, I worried for my Polar Bear brother too. I'm happy he's home now. And I'm glad Dad is here and maybe starting to feel more secure with me. And I'm wondering where Dad and Takeru and Yoshi are now too. I have a lot on my mind now. I'm really concerned for a lot of my family. And I am not really sure why I am so worried. And I feel a strong pair of White striped arms around me. And Buck's holding me tightly. And he leans down and kisses me. "I knew my Lion needed me, he's worried" Buck mouths to me. I kiss him. Grandpa smiles at us. "He knew you needed him, Boy" Grandpa says grinning. "He does love you a lot, Claude" Rory says grinning too. "I do" Buck mouths. I smile. I feel a lot better now.
