My name , well, I am at least sure of my first name, Claude. I am a rather large African Lion. 6'4", 220 pounds. With deep Gold fur and a Dark Gold mane. I have Deep Green eyes and big paws and foot paws. I have a lot of money, my Dad (or at least I always thought he was my Dad) is an industrialist Lion, he runs CMK, our family's big conglomerate. You would know Dad if you saw him or else you'd know the name CMK. (You either have something in your home with our name on it, or something that was made from the various parts and components we make).

My mother died when I was only 10, I'm 25 now. I missed Mom a lot, still do. Mom was a beautiful Lioness, I look more like her than I do Dad, Mom was a loving soul. She took Rory to her heart even though he was Dad's but not hers. You'd have never known she didn't bear him by how she loved and treated him. When she died I had never met her parents at all. She had one picture of them. A beautiful Grizzly/Lioness couple, and she looked a bit like her Mom too. But Grandpa, that's a whole other story.

Dad got my Mom's father to come home after Grandpa Kitman died.. He's a huge Grizzly Bear, and he loves me a lot.. Grandpa Kitman ran him and my Mom's Mother out of our lives, and when Grandpa K died, Dad went to find Grandpa Warren to get him back into my life. I love that big Grizzly so much, and he loves me and Rory as well. I'm thrilled to have his blood in my veins. I'm proud to be a Lion but if I looked like Grandpa I'd of been proud to be a Grizzly too. Gay he may be, but he's so masculine and he drips Macho. (Gushes cum too, but I'm getting ahead of myself here) Grandpa looks like a big ole Southern Redneck Grizzly Bear, and he's hot.

Walter William Warren, my Grandpa Warren, is bigger than I am. He's massive in fact. At 6'9" and 300 pounds, he's one big assed Bear. And he's been happy to have his Grandson with him. We have frequent sex, he's a great top, he'd divorced my Grandma when he realized he was gay, but he loves having a Grandson. Though he is sorry he could not be with Mom when she was so sick. He was a Chemistry Professor at U of A for years til he retired. He's 55, and he's getting a touch of gray in his hair and beard. It makes him look hotter to me. He's in great shape despite not exercising, he's active and he's told me he's` happier in his middle age than he ever was when younger.

I have a half brother, Rory, he's my Dad's son from a Polar Bear female who used to work for him. Dad had an affair with her two years before I was even born. Rory and I have always been close and we love each other a lot. He's 2 years older than I am, and he's a happy joyous soul. Rory is bigger than me, he's 6'11" and about 330 pounds. He's a little bigger than Grandpa Warren even. Grandpa treats Rory like he does me, as far as Grandpa is concerned, Rory's his Grandson as much as I am. Dad loves us all, and we're a happy, if a bit unusual family.

While my life has been a bit different, it was good up to my affair with a male who, unknown to me was married. It went really bad, I got caught up in a big scandal when his wife found out and went to the news media, as he and I both were rich and prominent. Thank God, I had finished my medical training earlier than planned. An ex professor who's been a mentor to me who moved to Sacramento, CA, and opened a practice and wants me to come out and work with him. Dr. Emil Brunner was always so good to me. He's an Internist like me, and he's a heavy set older Walrus. He's brilliant, and he told me he always saw something special in me. And he called me when he found out how broken up I was, he asked me to come out and start anew, and practice with him. I agreed quickly even though I hate the idea of leaving home. I am torn, I love the idea of a fresh start and I am looking forward to starting my practice. But I hate leaving Dad and Alfred and the home I grew up in. (Or at least I do now)

The California Medical board has asked for a lot of, what to me seems unnecessary, information and paperwork on me. and I have to provide my Birth Certificate. I know Dad has it. I've never seen it myself, but I know he has it. Everytime I needed it in the past I'd ask him and he'd send it to where it needed to go.

Growing up we had never been told to stay out of Dad's desk in his study, we just knew to somehow. I was looking for my Birth Certificate and a few other documents I needed for my Medical License. And I didn't want to wait for Dad to come home from work, so I went looking for them. And I'm stunned when I do find them. I find my Birth Certificate alright. But my biological father is apparently not Dad. J.T. Kitman is not the name listed as my father on it. Takeru Suzakawa? I'm literally speechless now. Who is he? And I have to think a minute or so when I calm down. Why don't I know he's my real father? I feel like I've been gut punched now. I love my Daddy, and he's not my biological father. And I can't think of him as anything other than my Daddy. I love Dad too much to even consider him as not being my father. And it hurts somehow. But it does kind of explain why I don't look like him at all.

I do remember Takeru after I've thought a bit. He's a big Spectacled Bear, he's about the same size I am, and he is or he was a friend of my Dad's. He runs a company he founded in Tokyo, Funari Corporation, an international conglomerate like CMK. He was around us a lot when I was little, and then just stopped coming around a bit after Mom died. I do remember him and Dad having a huge argument after Mom died. And then we never saw him again. Rory and I were both sad, because he had always been so good to us. He was a kind, and wise Bear and he always treated us as if we were his own sons. Even though he had a son of his own. His son Yoshi is a cool Bear the same age as me. We had become friends when we were little, and I still talk to him two or three times a year. We call or go meet somewhere and play catch up, and have a great time together. I love being around him, we have a great relationship, like me and Rory. No wonder though, as he's my half brother too, just like Rory. I find I'm proud of that, if this is true, Yoshi is my brother. And I'm glad of it. I love that Spectacled Bear as much as I love my Polar Bear brother. And I briefly wonder if he knows about me being his brother.

I gather the papers I needed and I go to my room. My mind is reeling more now. I was fine with Rory's not being Mom's yet being my brother. But this has me worried, will Rory still love me? When I calm down a bit more, I call Rory. He's in Iraq with the Marines. I tell him what I found. "Claude, I'm stunned too, Dad had to know though, and he still raised you as if you were his" Rory says softly. "I need to talk to him, but I don't know if I can face him with this." I moan. "You have to, you owe it to Dad to let him know you know" Rory says. "You're my brother still, and I love you Claude" Rory says softly. "You never cared that I had a different mother, so if you aren't Dad's son, I'll still love you" he says gently. "Thanks, Rory, I love you too, and you'll always be my beloved older brother" I say happily. He hangs up. I knew Rory'd be supportive, we're very close, and I'm glad it seems we always will be now. And I miss him now, If he was here, he'd wrap me up tightly in those big White furred arms and cuddle me and give me a great deal of comfort. Even as young cubs we'd run to one another when things got bad or painful. And we were always there for each other.

I lay on my bed, and I try to sort all of this out. Do I care that Jim Kitman is not my biological father? No, not at all, he's always been so loving to me. How will he react to me knowing who my biological father is now? I know he'll be hurt somehow. But he raised me, fully aware I wasn't his. He has to love me tremendously. I know he's proud of me. He has to have hurt over the years having loved me so much , yet knowing I'm not his. He's the important thing now, I have to make this easier on him. I have to let him know he's always going to be my Daddy, even though I know now who fathered me . I curse myself for my impatience, if I'd of just told him what I needed he'd of sent copies to the State Medical Board and I'd of never known. I kind of wish I didn't know. But I had to know one day. I'm amazed I'm this old before I found out.

And I wonder if this Dr Suzakawa knows I am his real son? If he does, he has to be hurting over never having known me growing up. Would he be proud of his Doctor son, would he be proud of having sired a Lion even? Yoshi's such a great Bear, I have to think Takeru would have loved me and raised me as well as he did Yoshi. Yoshi's proud as hell of his Daddy for sure. And if he knew did he try to fight for me, is that what that bad fight was about, he knew I was his and wanted to take me from Dad? So many questions flood my mind now. And I have no clue of how I really feel about being this Japanese industrialist Bear's bastard son. I need to know more I think. But I am a mass of swirling emotions that I can't even begin to sort out. And I wonder, if he doesn't know I'm his, do I have the right to tell him after all of these years? Do I have the right to hurt him like that? My brain itches from all of this. I hate sorting it all out alone like this. But there really is no one I can go to now.

I wish Grandpa was home, but he's off hunting for a few days with some friend of his. On some wild urge I look up Takeru Suzakawa on Google. Dr. Suzakawa, Eh?. He has a doctorate in Physics. And when I see his picture, I"m stunned, he has my eyes, and my build, and it's easy to see some physical similarities. Coincidence? I doubt it. And I have even more questions in my mind now. My whole world has just shifted it seems. And I have to wonder if it'll ever be the same again. But my mind keeps going back to how much Dad must have loved me, he had to know I wasn't his, but he raised me lovingly and well. I may not have his genes, but I know now, he is my Dad and he'll always be. I love him so much, he's been a great Dad to me and Rory. I know I am the Lion that I am because of James Thomas Kitman. And when it comes right down to it, that seems to be all that should matter to me. I am burning with curiosity to meet this Dr Suzakawa and I know I will eventually meet him. And even if I get to care for him, I'll always love my Daddy too.

Dad's home early, I hear him hollering up the stairs for me and he sounds mad. "Claude, Alfred called me and told me you'd been in my study and in my desk" he roars at me. "I had to get some papers for my California MD license, and I didn't want to wait for you to come home" I say softly. "Was one of them your Birth Certificate?" Dad asks. I nod. "So you know now" Dad says sadly. "I do" I say softly. Dad looks heartbroken. "I hoped I could keep that knowledge away from you, I loved you too much to have you know you weren't really mine, Claude" Dad says starting to cry. I haven't seen Dad cry since Mom's funeral. I hug him tightly. I hate seeing him so hurt. I know how he feels, and I'm a bit amazed that I haven't cried over it myself. Maybe when the shock wears off. I love my Daddy still though, and I know I always will.

"I suppose you want to know all about it now?" Dad asks. "If you want to tell me, Dad" I say softly. "You're still calling me Dad?" he asks. "I am, you raised me so well, even knowing I was fathered by someone else, you must have loved me so much, Dad, I may be this Dr Suzakawa's biological son, but you're my Daddy, you always will be" I say hugging him tightly. Dad's crying harder now. "I hated it, I hated lying to you, and I hated knowing, that as much as I loved you, and as proud of you as I was, you weren't mine really" Dad says holding me tightly. "I am yours, in all of the ways that matter, you raised me, you love me more than anyone else could, Daddy" I whisper in his ear. "I am the son you love as much as you love Rory, I am who I am because of how my Daddy raised me" I say happily. Dad kisses me. And he's lightening up a bit now.

"Takeru wouldn't let go of trying to take you away from me, we fought bitterly over it" Dad says softly. "He knows?" I ask. "He does, you know he has a son of his own, and you two are friends, but Yoshi doesn't know. I'd assume, since he didn't tell you." Dad says. "Takeru fought hard to take you from me legally, when Martha died he tried like Hell to get you, Claude, it hurt him so badly when the courts would not give you to him, I was married to Martha when you were born, so I am your legal father by American law" Dad says. "I couldn't give you up, the son I loved so much, even though I know you're his, I tried to forget, God knows I tried to, but I couldn't ever forget" Dad says sadly. I hug him tighter. "My beloved Claude was fathered by another" Dad says weeping again.

"Are you going to go to him, Claude?" Dad asks. "No, one day soon I will talk to him, but right now, I have the Daddy I want, I couldn't ask for one who loved me more than you" I say hugging him. Dad's crying harder. I pick him up and carry him to his bedroom and I curl up with him. He cries as I hold him tightly. I hold him and stroke his mane. And he seems to calm down. I'm usually the one crying and Dad's usually the one comforting me.

"I am so glad, Claude, I always feared this day would come and I'd lose you for good, I love my boy so much." Dad says softly. "I love you, Dad, you showed me so much love, even knowing I wasn't of your flesh and blood, you must love me tremendously, Dad" I say kissing him. "I was still always proud of you, Claude, and you're a Doctor now." he says. "I know Rory is not going to come to me at CMK, and neither are you, but Marcus' youngest daughter will take over from me one day, your Aunt Marge divorced him, and Jean is a bright girl, her and her kids will take over from me" Dad says softly. "I hope you're not disappointed in your boys for not coming to you, as you'd always hoped" I say softly. "I couldn't be any prouder of you, Claude, I know how hard you worked in Medical School and in your internship and residency." Dad says.

"Rory, has to be who he is, and in that he is so much like me" Dad says softly. "He loves you as much as I do" I say gently. "I know, he called me at CMK, he wanted me to know you knew, he was afraid for me" Dad says. "I had to come home and get this out, Claude, I was too scared I'd lose you to Takeru." Dad says tearing up again. "Daddy, you could never lose me" I say stroking his mane. "He fathered you, Claude, you have to build some sort of relationship with him one day" Dad says weeping again. "If it were reversed I'd want you to come to me, and try to get to know you as my son" Dad says softly. "He and I were such good friends once, Claude, I hated losing his friendship, but I could not give you up, even if he had a better claim on you" Dad says quietly.

I take his face in my paws and make him look into my eyes. "No one could love me as much as you have, and I don't want anyone else to be my Dad, he may have fathered me , but you are my Daddy" I say earnestly. Dad looks happier now. "Claude, he tried so hard to get you, he loves you as well, you need to develop some kind of relationship with him" Dad says softly. "I will in the future, but I am leaving my family home to start building my future, I have to focus on that, I know my Daddy will not stop loving me because I am in California, but I will miss him so much, not being with me" I say softly. Dad smiles.

"Claude, Walt wants to go with you to Sacramento, he's retired and he knows he can look after you, and that it will help me to know he's there with you" Dad says."I want you to get a big house or Condo, Rory will be coming to you too, and I'll get Alfred to have someone sent to take care of you" Dad says. "I will see about eventually moving our main offices out there, and I'll come too when I can" Dad says. "My cubs are growing up as they should, and they are seeking their future, and I'll miss you and Rory, and Walt, but I will be fine" Dad says softly. "Get Harry to move in with you, he's been your best friend for so long" I tell Dad.

"Claude, about Harry" Dad says sadly. I look at him. "He came out to me, and I had to acknowledge my own feelings, I'm gay too Claude" Dad says looking at the floor. I hug him.' "I love you, and I"m wanting you to be happy, Dad" I say kissing him. "He wants to bond if we can, Claude" Dad says softly. "Please for me, try, try as hard as you can, he'll love you so much, I'd seen how he'll sometimes look at you, and I was wondering about it" I say softly. "I want my beloved Daddy to be happy, and have someone who'll love him as long as he lives, like his Bear and Lion sons love him" I say kissing him. Dad's happy now. "I worried how you'd take this" Dad says hugging me. "I love my Daddy, and I want you happy, and loved" I say softly. "It'll help me going off to live and work in California to know you have someone here who loves you" I tell him. "Claude, Rory's going to go out to California when he comes home, he loves me, but he wants to go to school and forge a future of his own" Dad says softly. "More reason for you to have Harry with you, Dad, I don't want you lonely" I say kissing him.

He hugs me tightly. I kiss him and I get up and go out to the pool. I strip off and dive in. I miss Rory, we'd swim and talk, and I know why he went into the Marines, but I miss him. Alfred brings me a Diet Pepsi, and I sit in a chaise lounge by the side of the pool and drink it. I have not told Dad that I have already been thinking of talking to Dr Suzakawa, and I wonder if Alfred knows already. Somehow our English Fox Retainer knows so much without us telling him. My mind wanders to how to talk to Dr Suzakawa. It will be easier since he does know I am his son. . I have time to worry about that. I've got my new life to set up still. But my mind keeps drifting back to wondering about my biological father. I know now how badly he wanted me as his, he fought hard for me, and lost, he must be hurting a lot.

I know though I have to go out and get a house/condo and get set up and moved in soon. Emil's in no hurry for me to join his practice, but he wants me there by the middle of August. He always has an influx of new patients due to Sacramento State, the local University taking in at the end of August. I hate leaving home, I know it's for good though. Dad does too, he wants to move out when he can move the offices too. He knew without me asking him that I wanted him to come be with us. And I'm happy my Polar Bear brother wants to come with me too, I'd miss him an awful lot as well. And I'm really thrilled that Grandpa wants to come with me, but I know he loves me, and he wants to be at my side, he's never got over not being able to be with me when I was little and I know he's determined to be with me now. I'm fine with it because I love having my Grizzly Granddad with me as well.

"I didn't even think to ask Dad how it all happened" I muse out loud. "Master Claude, your Mother was upset for a long time about Jim fathering Rory from an affair, she loved Rory, and she took him in gladly when his mother died in childbirth, but she had an affair with Takeru when he was here visiting, and she became pregnant with you, she didn't know what to do, but she told Jim, she was as honest as you are" Alfred says softly. "Dad knew all along?" I ask. "He did, Master Claude, he was torn up and hurting, until you were born and he saw you for the first time, he knew then he would keep you as his, and try to keep Martha's secret" Alfred says softly. "He loved you from the first moment he saw you, Claude" Alfred says.

"He has loved you so much, he forgave Martha, since it was, in his mind, his fault she had an affair. they never told Takeru and he would come as he always used to to spend time with us, about twice a year" Alfred says. "When Martha was dying, Takeru told her he knew you were his, and he and Jim had a bad fight about it after she died., Takeru said he would not take you from her while she was alive, but he was intending to take you back to Tokyo, and they had a bitter legal fight" Alfred continues. "He gave up when his appeals failed, but he has tried to keep up with you, through me, I have sent him pictures and news of you, Claude, he loves you too, you may feel in your heart Jim is your Dad, but Takeru has a claim on you too" Alfred says quietly. "You have to sort this out Claude, you have two fathers who love you so much" Alfred says firmly.

"I will have to figure out what to do here, Alfred, I love Dad, and he will always be my Daddy, but you're right, I have to build some sort of relationship with Takeru, he deserves that" I say softly. "I will talk to Grandpa when he comes home, and try to figure out what to do" I tell him. Alfred hugs me. "He needs to know he's in your life, Claude, he knows how you feel about Jim, and he's resigned to the fact that you will not let him replace Jim, but you are his son too, and he's not had you in his life, and he mourns for that, you are of his blood, and he's tormented by not having known you growing up. " Alfred says. "Claude, you ought to call him, let him know you know now, and that you want to try to build some sort of relationship with him., even if it's not right away." Alfred says gently. And he hands me a piece of paper with Takeru's number. "He needs this as much as you do, Claude" Alfred says softly. There is a sadness in Alfred's eyes that makes me know this has struck a chord with him.

"Why are you wanting me to contact him so badly, Alfred?" I ask. "I had a son too when I was fairly young, one I can never claim, Claude, his life would be ruined if I did, and I have to endure knowing he'll never know he's mine, nor will I ever know him" Alfred says. "That's a story I hope to hear one day, but now I have to sort my own life out" I say softly. Alfred nods, in fact he looks a bit relieved. I hug him tightly. "So it's easy for you to sympathize with Takeru, I love you Alfred, I always have, you've been like a father to me as well" I say hugging him tightly.

"Claude, call him, for me if not him, he needs to know you know, and that even if it's not right away, that you want to know him" Alfred says softly. I nod. I take the paper, and I call him. As his phone rings I'm so very nervous. Do I just tell him I know? And how will Yoshi take this? But Dad and Alfred are right I have to talk to him.

He answers and my heart is in my throat. "Yes, what can I do for you" he says. "Umm...well, I know" I say softly. "Know what?" he asks. "You don't know who I am?" I ask. "No, how would I?" he asks. "I am Dr Claude Marcus Kitman II" I say softly. "You are not, you should be Dr Claude Marcus Suzakawa" he says angrily. "You are mine, and you know this now, you must come to me immediately." he snaps. "I will not" I say getting mad myself now. "I was raised by Jim Kitman, even though he was tortured by knowing I wasn't his, he loved me and he raised me" I say softly. "I fought hard for you, my son, if we were in Japan you would have been unquestionably mine" he says softening. "I am yours, I know that, but I will not abandon the father who loved me so, and who I love so much" I say softly. "We have to build our own relationship now, and we can, but I am overwhelmed, I only found out less than two hours ago" I say softly. "You wish to know me then" he says quietly. "I do, I am yours, and I know you must have hurt so, knowing of me, and knowing you could not be with me" I say softly. "I am good friends with Yoshi, and I have to find a way to tell him" I say softly. "He knows, he is aware that he is your half brother, as you are with Rory" Takeru says quietly. "He never said a word" I say stunned. "I asked him not to, you two cared for one another, though you did not know he was your brother, I told him on his 16th birthday of your being mine" Takeru says. "Was he upset?" I ask. 'No, he has always wanted a brother" Takeru says quietly. "He would wish you to come to us as well" Takeru says softly.

"Oto-Sama, I need time, I have to sort a lot out, and I'm moving away from home, I am going out to California to start practicing Medicine soon, and I will be getting a condo, and I want you to come when I am settled, we do need to meet, and I need to do this face to face, but I need time to sort my feelings out" I say softly. He's been weeping. "You called me Oto-Sama, do you know what that means?" he asks. "I do, Yoshi taught me to speak Japanese" I say softly "It means Beloved father, I know I feel a pull to you already, I love Dad, but I am not distressed to have two loving fathers in my life" I say softly. "I need to keep myself on a steady course, as I have much to do, go to a strange place and settle in, and start a new life, and I know it will be hard, but I do want to get to know you, I want to make up for the pain I know you have to have suffered over the years" I say softly. "I want to come to you, I am fighting the urge to throw all aside and come to you now, my son" Takeru says softly.

"I would ask you not to, I wish to have some time for Father Jim to heal, I would hope one day in the future you two might be close again, but I will not push for it" I say softly. "I know of you from Yoshi, and in his pride of being your son, I know I have much to be proud of being your son too" I say softly. Takeru breaks down. "I have waited a long time for this, I can wait a bit longer, Claude" he says through his tears. "It won't be long, Oto-Sama, I want to at least have my own home, and then I wish you to come to me, and we'll spend the time getting to know each other, and bonding as father and son" I say softly. "I know I have a lot to be proud of being your son, Oto-Sama" I say softly.

"But you still see Jim as your Daddy?" he asks. "I do, and I always will, I have room in my heart for you both." I say softly. "I can live with that, as long as I have you as my son too, I will miss having seen you grow up, though Alfred always provided me with information and pictures" He says. "I'm glad he did, and I wish one of you would have told me before I found out by accident." I say gently. "I wanted to, I begged Jim to tell you, and let you decide who you wanted to be with, but he would not risk losing you, he refused, Claude, it tore me apart" Takeru says softly. "I am sorry you were so hurt by this" I say gently. "You had nothing to do with any of this Claude" Takeru says. "Please, talk to me, even if you are not ready for us to meet yet, call me, maybe once a week?" he begs. "I don't think that's asking too much of me, Oto-Sama" I say softly. He's weeping. "You make me cry when you call me that, my Lion son" he says gently. "I swear I will call you as often as I can, and when I am settled I will beg you to come see me, Oto-Sama" I say earnestly. "You will not have to beg your father to come see you" Takeru says softly. "I will go now, I have much to do" he says softly. He hangs up.

I sit and I have to wonder, would having been raised by him have been so bad. Yoshi's happy, and a pretty cool guy. And he seems to love me already. I lay in the sun and I think a while.

"Claude, I heard, Jim's upset, but he's glad you still love him as your father" Grandpa says softly, as he strolls up to me.. "I thought you were off hunting?" I ask. "Too damned hot now, even the game is hiding in the shade" he says laughing. "Grandpa, Dad told me you wanted to come to California with me" I say softly. "I do, if you'll take your old Grandpa along with you" he says. I hug him. "I'll be glad to have you, I love you Grandpa" I say hugging him. "Claude, I've been out in the woods for three days, so I'm a bit musky" Grandpa says smiling. I sniff him, and I lick his chest. "My Grandson likes me that way" he says grinning. And he pulls me up to my feet by my paw.

"I'll bet you need your old Grandpa to comfort you now" he says pulling me to him and kissing me. "I do" I say kissing him back. His big Grizzly dick is poking into my thigh. His dick is way bigger than mine. and he's an aggressive, dominant top. And I've got nothing to complain about. I'm 13". Grandpa is 18" and really fat.

I am mostly bottom, but some guys get me hot to fuck them. I'll always go onto my back for my Grandpa. He took my cherry, I begged him to. He was concerned that he was too big to be my first, and I got on my knees and begged him. And he was wonderful. So caring and tender, and gentle. We've been in heat for one another ever since. We fuck whenever we get the chance, as I did with Rory before he went into the Marines. He and I and Grandpa would spend the night together a lot. I loved it when my Polar Bear and my Grizzly would take me in turns like they would. I have a weak spot for hot big Bears I guess. I know I have the hots for big males in general.

I've been kind of spoiled by Grandpa. I haven't dated a lot since I've been in College. Studying and being under Grandpa is most of what I did. And truthfully, I'm not surprised Grandpa is coming with me to California, he would never leave 'his favorite piece of Lion ass' as he calls me. But he has a young White Bengal Tiger he fucks a lot too. Grandpa is a horny old Bear.

I'm surprised he's leaving his Jerry behind to go with me. I'll have to ask him about it one day. Unknown to me, Jerry though will do several things that will ultimately make me very happy down the road.

Jerry Marks is a nice guy, he's my age, and he's never had the opportunities I did. I have kind of secretly hoped Grandpa Walt would bond him, they do care for one another, and we could give Jerry a better life. He and I have had coffee together and talked a few times. He's a hard working male, and he'd have loved to go to College, he is a mechanic but he really wanted to be an Automotive Engineer. Never had the money to go to College, and refused to let me send him. Though if he was Grandpa's mate, Granddaddy would get him to go. Knowing I"d happily pay for it. And I know without a doubt, Jerry is more than worthy of my Grandpa, and I'd happily take good care of him when Grandpa died. But Grandpa is in such good shape, he'll live another thirty years easily. Jerry knows Granddad and I fuck a lot, and he doesn't mind. He's an awesome White Bengal Tiger. And I can see in his eyes when he looks at Grandpa how much he loves Walt.

We go to my bedroom. And strip. I lay on my back on the bed. Grandpa gets on top of me, and we make out heavily. I wrap my legs around Grandpa's thick waist. And he pushes his massive dick into me. I growl and moan as he starts slowly as he always does. We kiss deeply and with full tongue. He's running his paws all over my body as he always does. It makes me hotter for him.

"I love my Lion Boy, you may not be Jim's but you know you are mine" Grandpa says licking my neck. "I do, Grandpa" I growl softly. "I'd have bonded you, but I was afraid, Claude, I am your Grandfather, but damn, I have wanted to" Grandpa says softly. "I'd take you, kin or not" I pant heavily. He's moving faster in my ass now. "We can't or we would have already, you're my kin, like you can't bond Rory, I know you two tried, Claude" Grandpa says fucking me harder. "We did" I say sadly. "I wanted to belong to him, or you, and I guess I can't" I say softly. "I'm not happy either, but I love you and I know how much you love me as well" he says nuzzling my neck. I grunt and I shoot on his belly. "I love how tight you squeeze me when you cum from my fucking" Grandpa says hotly. "You want me to cum in you, you ready to take your old Granddad's cum?" he asks me passionately. "Please, Grandpa" I beg him. And he bites my neck hard and he's tensing on top of me and I feel his big dick twitching and spewing his warm Grizzly cum inside of me. I shoot on his soft belly again. "My baby cub came when I did, I love it when you do that, you are so into my fucking" he says kissing me. "I love you, Grandpa Walt" I say softly. "I love my Boy, so much" he says kissing me deeply. We cuddle a while with him on top of me. I love having him on top of me like this. My Grizzly Granddaddy loves his little Lion cub so much. He strokes and pets my mane so lovingly. 'My baby Lion cub, he loves his Granddad so much, I couldn't not be with you, Claude," he says so lovingly. "He does, and he's glad you're coming with him, he couldn't be without you either." I say softly.

Alfred calls dinner and we get up. Grandpa kisses me and lumbers off to his room to shower. I go right down to dinner. Dad's pretty happy. Papa Harry's here and he looks ecstatic. I kiss Harry. "Claude, he bonded me" Harry says. I hug them both. "I know you'll make my Daddy happy, Harry" I say softly. "I thought you said he knew?" Harry asks. "He's my Daddy, no matter who fathered me, my Daddy is and will always be Jim Kitman" I say happily. Dad smiles. "I did talk to Takeru, Dad, Alfred told me I should, and I did" I say softly. "He ordered me to come to him, and I refused, and I told him when I'd had time to adjust, I wanted him to come to me in California, and we'd talk" I say softly. "You're my Daddy, and will always be, but he is my biological father, and I'd like to know him, he's hurt so much over this, I owe it to him" I say softly. "I can see that you feel you do, Claude, he and I will make our peace, he fought like Hell trying to get you, and I can't blame him, I fought all out to keep you" Dad says smiling. "Dad, he will be sensitive for a bit, but he was happy when I told him I wanted to form a relationship with him, even though I'd always think of you as my Daddy" I say smiling.

Dad's grinning now. "Dad, you loved me and raised me, and you forgave Mom, as she forgave you for Rory" I say softly. Dad hugs me. "I have loved you so much, since the day I first held you in my arms, you were such a beautiful little Lion cub" Dad says softly. "I felt for you the same way I did when I first held Rory, he was a gorgeous little Polar Bear cub" Dad says smiling. "You didn't mind that I was, well you know?" I ask him. "No, I was angry at Martha for a while, but when she bore you, I didn't care who really fathered you, you were my boy from the moment I held you." Dad says softly. "Claude, you reached out to me, you were only a few minutes old, but you reached out for me, and you grabbed my finger and held it tightly and you would not let go, I knew you had recognized that you were mine, and I couldn't let you go ever" Dad says softly. He weeps and I stand and I hug him. I stroke his mane, and he pets mine.

"Like when I first saw him, Jim, he was 10 and I could see so much of me, and Martha in him" Grandpa says smiling as he walks into the dining room. "He was such a beautiful Lion cub" Grandpa says wistfully. "I"m glad you forgave me for what my Daddy did to you and Edith" Dad says softly. "He was a bastard, but I know from Martha's letters how you fought for us, and how he made you pay when you lost" Grandpa says. "You had letters from Martha?" Dad asks."Alfred helped us, he kept it secret and he smuggled them in to her" Granddad says. "I have pictures from when Claude was born too, I had planned to come to you and fight to see my Grandson, but you came for me before I could" Granddad says. He hugs Dad. "It meant the world to me, that you came and begged me to forgive you, and to come live with you and our boys" Grandpa says happily. He and Dad hug tightly.

I go find Alfred after dinner. "So you helped Grandpa and Grandma and Mom keep in touch too, you're just an old softie, sweet Fox" I say kissing him. "Your Grandfather was so hurt when they left, and when he came back, he was so joyous" Alfred says. "Did you tell Dad where they were when Grandpa Kitman died" I ask him. "I did, and I told him, if he went to Walt, that Walt would come running home to see his Grandson, Claude, you were all he had left. though they divorced, he loved your Grandma, she couldn't deal with his gayness" Alfred says softly. "He was broken up when she died" Alfred says.

"Alfred, what happened, do you know where your son is?" I ask. "I do, he is being trained as I was, he's almost old enough to be sent out for service" Alfred says. "I loved a young girl, I did not know she was a cousin, and when we made love, I left her pregnant, before I knew, I was sent out to your family, and I then could not acknowledge her son, she married, and they raised my son as theirs" Alfred says sadly. "She wrote me when he was born, to tell me he was mine, and I know his name, but I cannot let him know ever, he's happier that way, he loves the Badger who raised him, like you do Jim" Alfred says sadly. "So it was easy for you to empathize with Takeru, and you made sure he had pictures and knew of me" I say softly. Alfred nods. I hug him. "I'm so sorry, baby Fox" I say hugging him. He weeps on my shoulder. "It is a relief to just be able to tell someone" he says sadly. I hug him tighter. "I love you, Alfred, you know that" I say softly. "I will miss you so much" he says softly. "I will have someone sent to you when you let me know you have a house out there" Alfred says softly. I nod. I'm exhausted. It's been quite a day.

I go up to my room and I fall asleep quickly.

The next few weeks are busy ones. I keep busy getting the paperwork for my California Medical License done. And in Mid July, Grandpa and I fly out to Sacramento to look for a place to live. I concentrate on the area right around Demontfort and Grandpa Walt and I find a nice big 6 Bedroom, 7 Bath condo about a quarter mile from campus. The patio is big enough that I can put a hot tub in. I go ahead and buy it.

Alfred comes out to help me furnish it and set it up. He stays with me for a week. It's a great week. He's so happy to help me, and he furnishes the place just as I want it. We all have a good time. Alfred is relaxed and he and I and Grandpa get to know each other a lot better. I'll miss my Red Fox so much. He's always loved me so, as I've loved him. And he and Granddad tell me a lot about my Mom, things I hadn't known before. And Grandpa and I go checking things out, there are a lot of places close to this condo where I can get what I need. A shopping mall about a mile away. I'll be pretty set.

The night Alfred goes back to Alabama, he tells me he's got a retainer coming for me in a few days from his family in England. Grandpa wants to stay here when I go home for a few weeks. So I go home alone. He's got my bank card so he'll be OK financially. And I bought him his usual big Dodge truck. So he can get around. I buy an Mercedes S550 4Matic sedan for me as well. As as horny as Grandpa is I know he'll be scouting new ass in our new home. Grandpa can find willing bottoms anywhere he goes. I'll miss him, but I'm coming out for good soon.

I spend a lot of time with Dad and Papa Harry when I get home.. I'll miss them a lot. And I am glad Dad's got Harry now. I can tell how much Harry loves him. As I promised, I call Takeru two or three times a week, and we talk a lot, he's always so happy when I call him. And we talk, and we open up and try to get to know one another. He's an impressive Bear. He built Funari up from nothing. He's a genius, I found that out online. I did have him investigated. Dad has a private detective company on retainer. 'The Girls'. They can find anything on anyone given time and money.

I have a pretty impressive dossier on Dr. Takeru Hikari Suzakawa. He was born poor and built Funari up from nothing. Takeru is a rare individual who has an IQ well over 200. (235 in fact). I take time and I go have mine tested at the U of A. I shouldn't be surprised. Dad's smart as well, but I'm 224. No wonder school was so easy for me. I did finish College and Medical School early. But to know I'm of genius level intelligence is a bit surprising.

I'm sitting at the pool on my birthday. (August 8th) I'll be leaving for California in a week or so. My cell rings. Yoshi's calling. I answer. And he's so happy. "Onii-Chan" he says happily. "We've always called each other that, and now we know we really are" I tease him. "Claude, I've known since I was 16" Yoshi says. "It must have been hard not to tell me?" I ask. "It was, I was proud of having a brother, and I almost told you a few times, but Dad begged me not to" Yoshi says. "Yoshi, I have wondered what it would have been like, if Takeru had gotten me, and we'd have grown up together in Tokyo" I say softly. "I'd of loved that, we've always been good friends, even when we were little" Yoshi says.

"How do you feel, you know my Mom had an affair with your Dad, and your own Mom was still alive" I ask him. "Mom was already sick, and Dad and I have talked it out, I was upset at first, but Dad needed my support, he agonized to know he could not get his other son home to him" Yoshi says softly. "I'm so sorry, I would not want to hurt him, I love my Dad, and believe it or not, I love Takeru already" I say softly. "I know, he's anxious to come to you soon" Yoshi says happily.

"I know, but I want to be in my own place, I want him to get to know me, without worrying about him and Dad getting along, I think I more than owe him that much, Yoshi" I say softly. "Jim has had you all along, Dad will be happy about you being just with him at times" Yoshi says. "I hope you'll come to see me sometimes too, Onii-Chan?" I ask. "I will, I love California, and I miss you, I'd of loved to have grown up with my brother at home" he says. "Yoshi, I have always loved you as a brother, I wonder now if somehow we knew subconsciously" I ask. "Possibly" he answers.

"My Grandpa Walt will be coming with me to California, he doesn't want to be away from me" I say softly. "He's a big, and horny Grizzly, if I remember correctly" Yoshi says. "A big top Grizzly, Onii-Chan" I tease him. "He is large?" Yoshi asks. "6"9" and he's 18" where it counts" I tease Yoshi. "Do you let him fuck you?" he asks. "I do, I gave my Granddad my virginity" I say proudly. "I can't wait to experience him myself" Yoshi says happily. "He's good" I tell him. Yoshi laughs. "My brother, I love you, I have for so long, we have always been close" he says happily. "I know, and I want you to come see me when you can, Onii-Chan" I say softly. "I will" he says. "Dad is working hard to be patient, but he is so anxious to see you again, and get to know you" Yoshi says offhandedly. "I know, I can understand that, I want to start getting to know him too" I say gently. "Claude, I know you love Jim as your Dad, but will you love Oto-Sama as your father too?" he asks. "I will, I have room in my heart for Takeru as well, other animals love their mother and father, and I can love my two fathers as well" I say softly. "They are both very special males, and I am proud to have them as my fathers" I say softly. Yoshi laughs.

"Dad is worried, it means so much to him that you want to know him, and when you called him Oto-Sama he cried" Yoshi says. "I love him, I only really know him well through you, you always talked about him, and how proud you were to be his son, and I can see how you feel, I've looked him up online, and I am proud to have his blood in me" I say quietly. "He's a very impressive Bear, Onii-Chan" I say proudly. 'He is" Yoshi says proudly.

"Claude, tell him, he needs to hear that now, he's hurting as I have bonded someone and am moving out" Yoshi says. "Really, who'd you bond?" I ask. "A Psychiatrist I met through a friend, he is a slightly older Bengal Tiger, but he loves me, and I love him," Yoshi says softly. "How much older?" I ask. "Only five years, he is 30, and has a good practice" he says. "Do you love him?" I ask. "I do, I love my Dr Daisuke Makoto very much" he says. "I'll call him" I say. "He is here, talk to him?" Yoshi asks. "I will, Onii-Chan" I say softly.

"Claude?" I hear Takeru ask softly. "I am here Oto-Sama" I say softly. He weeps. "My Yoshi is leaving home" he says sadly. "He told me Oto-Sama" I say softly. "I would have you come soon, Oto-Sama" I say softly. He weeps. "I am proud of my sons, but they are adults now" he says trying to stop crying. "Yoshi wanted me to tell you what I told him" I say softly. "What would that be?" Takeru asks. "I have looked you up, and had a bit of investigation done on you, and I am very proud to know I am of your blood, Oto-Sama" I say softly. He breaks down. "I needed to hear that, I know you love Jim, and you are proud of how he raised you, but I needed to know you were proud of being mine" Takeru says weeping.

"I am sorry you have hurt so on my behalf, but I love you, and I love Dad, and I have room for both of you in my heart, Oto-Sama" I say softly. "I should be thankful to Jim as well, he raised you so well, you love me, and you love him, and you are happy to know you are mine, you have become quite a Lion" Takeru says softly. "I am, I am rather proud to know I was fathered by Dr Takeru Suzakawa" I say gently. "I will talk to you soon, I must go stop crying now, my son" he says. And he hangs up.

My cell rings again right away. "I will not talk much, but I wanted to wish my son a happy birthday, and I had forgotten to." Takeru says softly. "Thank you, and Takeru?" I ask. "Yes, son" he answers. "I love you, Father" I say simply. "I love my Lion son very much" he says weeping hard now. "I am so proud of my son now, you want me to know how much you love me already" he says crying hard. "I am proud to be yours, I know from Yoshi, I would have been happy to have been raised by you as well, but I cannot complain of how my Dad raised me" I say softly. "I am..., no, I am your Oto-Sama, and he is your Daddy, you always have referred to him as such, we can share you, I will talk soon to Jim and work this out" Takeru says. "My Lion son loves me and I will not pull him between me and the Lion who raised him" Takeru says quietly. "I love you too much, Claude" Takeru says softly.

I go inside when he hangs up. I eat lunch and I start packing some things. I will send my things out to California and keep only what I need. I miss Grandpa though. I may head out earlier than I"d planned to, though I know I'll miss Alfred and Dad and Harry a lot. If Dad does come out though Alfred will come too, and he'll get a house of his own I know. I know my Daddy as well as he knows me.

Grandpa calls me and we chat a while. He's found a gym he likes. He's always wanted to learn to work out, and he's made friends with the owners. A pair of Hispanic Bulls. Sam Montoya and Oscar Perez, and they've been together for a long time. Grandpa tells me their rental house got sold out from under them, and he asks me to let them move in. I ask him a few questions out of curiosity. But I trust Grandpa, if he thinks they'll be fine, then I'll let them live with us. So I tell him to have them move in, but no rent. Grandpa laughs. "I have to keep the house running for us, so I don't need money" I say softly. "You got shit loads of it, Boy" Grandpa says laughing. "I know I do, I have about $550 Million now, Grandpa" I say. And I bring him up to date on my conversations with Takeru. "He's called me a few times, Claude, he's trying to get to know me too" Grandpa says softly. "He loves you so much, and I can relate, so much of your life passed before I got to know you too, Boy" Grandpa says softly. "I miss you, Grandpa and I'll be out in a few days, I have a lot to do before I start working with Emil." I say softly.

"Will you be OK leaving home?" Grandpa asks me. "It'll be hard, but I have to, I know I have to grow up and build my adult life, and I can't do it here, thanks to Marty's wife." I say softly. "I can't practice here after that scandal, and I love knowing Emil will help me get started." I say happily.

And Grandpa tells me of all the guys at Sam and Oscar's gym that he's slept with. "My horny Granddad" I tease him. He laughs. "Claude, I brought Jerry out here, he's here now, and we're getting closer" Grandpa says softly. "Thinking of bonding him, Grandpa?" I ask. "I've not tried yet, he's your age, would you mind though if we did?" he asks. "Not at all, I already know he loves you and you love him" I say happily. "Will my Granddad still fuck me like he does, if he bonds his Jerry?" I ask. "Oh, Hell yes" he says laughing. "I miss that tight Lion ass of yours, Boy" Grandpa says laughing. "Jerry has family here, and he wanted to see me and spend time with them, Claude" Grandpa says happily. "I'm glad you brought him out, Grandpa" I say softly.

"He's got a Cousin he's close to, and Buck, that poor guy, his lover tried to poison him, before they broke up" Grandpa says softly. "His vocal cords got burnt off, Claude" Grandpa says softly. "He's a big White Bengal Tiger, and he's a sweet guy but he's mute" Grandpa says sadly. "He signs and he can mouth words, I can lip read him, but he's lonely" Grandpa says. "I did learn ASL for deaf clients, so I can understand him if he signs to me" I say softly. "I thought you did know sign, Claude" he says softly. "Grandpa Walt, bond Jerry if you can, I want you loved, I love you, but we can't bond or I'd have snapped you up long ago, so please?" I beg him. Grandpa laughs. "I'll try, Baby Lion" he says softly. "My Lion loves me" he says quietly.

Grandpa and I talk about a few other things and then we hang up. I go down to the kitchen and get a Diet Pepsi and Alfred tells me he's got someone coming for our Condo, and he'll be there in a day or so. "I'll let Grandpa Warren know, Claude, he'll need to go get him at the airport, but I don't know who'll be sent" Alfred says. "He'll just look for a huge Grizzly" Alfred says laughing. "Alfred, I'm going to miss you so much, you've been so loving and supportive to me for so long," I say hugging him. He's tearing up. "Master James is so sad too, we're going to miss our Lion" he says hugging me and crying on my shoulder. "He'll sell this house when he moves the office out to California" I say softly. "He will, and I will go too" Alfred says softly. "I'll be waiting for my Fox Father to come" I say softly.

"Claude, you're not part of Jim's household anymore" Alfred says very quietly. "Does that mean we can.....?" I ask him. "We can if you'd let me?" he asks. "Alfred, I've never seen such a beautiful Fox as you, and it's been hard to know I couldn't have you make love to me" I tell him. He kisses me deeply. I pick him up and we go to my bedroom. He strips. "Alfred, you're even more beautiful naked" I say smiling. He kisses me. I strip and we lay down and make out for a while. He's better hung than I thought. He's smaller than me, he's only 5'10" and about 175 pounds. His dick is the same size as mine. And he pushes me on my back. Looking up into his deep green eyes I can see how hot he is for me. I put my arms around his neck. And he pushes into me gently. He's a slow and masterful fuck. He puts all of his passion for me into it. And he's amazing. I cum hard on his belly and he keeps going. He growls deeply and he cums hard into me. We lay panting hard, and I love having him on top of me.

"I have wanted you since you were 18, Claude" he says softly. "I almost begged you to take me when we were in California, Claude" he says. "I have wanted you for a long time, Alfred" I say softly. "If I had of known, I would have asked you then" Alfred says. "I'm glad we did, I'll take you when you want me" I say softly. "I'd like that, I know you're leaving in a day or two, but I'd like to show you how much I love you" Alfred says smiling. "Alfred, I want you, I'm glad we got to do this, and I know why we couldn't, but I have wanted you a long time now" I say kissing him. "Spend the night with me?" I beg him. He smiles. And he does, and we make love four or five times very passionately. "We must sleep now, Claude" he says about 2AM. "I have to get up to do breakfast" he says happily. He rolls off of me, and we curl up together. "Claude, I love you so much" Alfred says. "I love you, and I always have Alfred" I say softly.

I wrap myself around Alfred, and I sleep. I've been so tired the last few days. But my world was turned upside down. I wake up way too early. About 5AM. And I lay thinking things out a lot. I love holding my Alfred while he sleeps. He stirs and he kisses me and gets up. "I'll go now, I can get an early start on breakfast, Claude" he says kissing me. "I love you, babe" I say softly. "I know" he says and he dresses and leaves.

I follow my urges and I call Takeru. "My son, I hope nothing is wrong, as it is very early for you" he says excitedly. "I woke up thinking about you, I do remember you from when I was young, and I just needed to talk to my father" I say softly. "I am always glad to talk to my Lion son" he says joyously. "We have had dinner and I am sitting in my garden drinking sake and relaxing, my son" he says happily. "Father, I do love you, and I'm going to California day after tomorrow" I say softly. "I see" he says. "I want you to come to me, Father, when you can, and I know an important Bear like you has to have time to plan things, I wish I had thought of it earlier in the week"I say softly. Takeru laughs. "You are anxious to see me again, my Lion son" he says happily. "I am, Father" I say quietly. He's so happy, and he's laughing now.

"I had just received the pictures Alfred took at the Graduation ceremony when you got your license to practice Medicine, my son" Takeru says. "You have grown up to be a very handsome Lion, Claude" he says proudly. "Thank you, Oto-Sama, I am glad you think so" I say softly. "I....well...I am much attracted to you, my son, I hope you will not find this upsetting" Takeru says very quietly. "No, I sleep with Grandpa Warren anytime I can" I say gently. Takeru laughs. "He told me, Claude, he is hot for you a lot, and he told me he understood why I'd be hot for you too" Takeru says happily. I can tell he's a bit intoxicated, but it seems to just open him up a bit. "Would you take your Father if he wanted you to?" he asks sounding a bit tentative. "I would, you are a truly handsome and sexy Spectacled Bear, Oto-Sama" I say gently. "Claude, I do want you, I want you as my son, and I want you under me as well" he says sadly. "I was ashamed when I realized how badly I want to fuck you, as well as truly be as your Father" Takeru says sounding distressed. "I would not want you to feel that way, I know you fathered me, and I would love to feel you fuck me when you wanted to" I say happily. "You would?" he asks. "I would, you are a beautiful Bear, it was the first thing I thought of when I Googled you, and saw a current picture of you" I say happily.

"Claude, I will come to California this weekend, if you will be there, I have waited so long to just see you, and hold my Lion son in my arms, I have missed so much of your life so far, and I wish to miss no more of it, my Lion son" He says weeping. "I will be in California by then Oto-Sama, and I am tired of waiting to see you as well" I say firmly. "My Claude" he says joyously. "I want to know you as my father, and I would love to have you make love to me, Oto-Sama" I say softly. "I would like this as well" Takeru says.

"Claude, I spoke to Jim earlier tonight, he and I have started to make our peace, we both know we did not want to lose you, and we know now we can both have you" he says happily. "I have missed Jim-Chan, he was my best friend until we fought over you, but you are clear that you will not be forced to choose between your beloved fathers, and we are friends again, as we were for so long, my Claude" he says softly. "I"m glad of that, I do love you both, way too much to be forced to choose between you, Oto-Sama"I say softly. "I no longer cry when you call me that, it thrills me to hear you say it now" he says proudly.

"Oto-Sama, will Onii-Chan's Tiger be good to him?" I ask softly. "He is a good Tiger, and he loves Yoshi so much, he is from a rich family and he is a warm and loving soul" Takeru says happily. "I am proud my son made such a good match" Takeru says softly. "When it is your turn, I hope you do as well as my Yoshi, but if you love them and they love you truly and deeply, I will be happy, my Lion son" he says. "Oto-Sama, it made me proud to hear you call me your Lion son" I say happily. He weeps. "You know you are mine and you are proud of it" he says gently. "I am, I am proud to carry the blood of Takeru Suzakawa in me" I say gently. "I love you, my Lion son, as much as I love Yoshi" he says happily.

"Claude, I was already horny and hearing you say how you'd want to take me has made me more so, I have the son of a long time friend coming over, he is a good Boar, and a great bottom, and I must now go and shower and be ready for him" Takeru says softly. "But know, as I work him over, I will be thinking of you, and I am most anxious to have you" he says lustily. "I am hot for you too, Takeru, we'll have a wonderful time I know, and I will love getting closer to a wonderful Bear such as you" I say happily. "You will" he says happily. "I want to know the Bear who is my Oto-Sama, and the Bear who even his son tells me of what a wonderful lover he is" I say softly. "Claude, did he tell you?" Takeru asks. "He did, he could not resist wanting his hot and sexy Spectacled Bear father, no more than I can" I say softly. Takeru laughs. "I think poor Botan is going to get quite a workout tonight" he says joyously. "Gives me something to look forward to" I muse out loud. "OH?" he asks. "If just knowing I want you makes you so hot, I can only imagine how hot you'll be when you do finally take me as we both want" I say happily. "I will give you my all, as both your father and as a lover" he says happily. "I must go now, my beautiful Lion son" he says hotly. "I love you, Oto-Sama" I say softly. "I love you, more than words could say, my Claude" he says lovingly. He hangs up. He's quite a Bear, and I know I can't wait to get to know him.

I get up and I get coffee. Dad's up already. "Claude, Takeru and I have started to make our peace, we both fought so, because we loved you and would not give you up" Dad says. "I won't choose between you, I love you both too much, Dad" I say softly. "We know, Takeru is proud of you for knowing who you are and wanting us both, Claude" Dad says smiling. "I am too, you love me so much, and I was so scared for so long, you'd not want me as your Dad when you knew, but right away you made sure I knew I would always be your Daddy" he says proudly. "I knew, it had to be hard on you, to love me so, and to accept I was sired by another" I say leaning over and stroking his mane. "I could not ask for a better Dad than you" I say softly. "It's so hard to know you're leaving me soon, but I will be out as often as I can, and I know Takeru will come stay with you too, and we are getting close again" Dad says. "He's quite a Bear, and he cares for me, only our shared son could come between us" Dad says. "That is over now, our boy wants both of us, and loves both of us" Dad says softly. "I do" I say very quietly.

"I had to have done something very right, my Claude is an amazing Lion" he says. "Dad, did Rory say anything about how much longer he'll be gone?" I ask trying to change the subject before I start crying. "He's getting out in December, and he's coming right to California" Dad says. "I hope to be out in January, it'll take a few months to get the offices moved, but I want to be with my boys" Dad says. "Harry told me he'll go where I go, he loves me so much" Dad says proudly. "Your sons want you with them, Daddy" I say softly.

Dad smiles. "I have a lot to do today, but I will try to be home early, I want to sit and talk to you before you leave" Dad says softly. "I have talked to a lawyer out there, and he'll help you transfer your money and help you with anything you need to get settled in" Dad says smiling.

I nod. I have to finish packing soon. I'll get to that today. "Dad, I"m wanting to go on Thursday afternoon" I say smiling. "I have Eagle One on standby for you, I don't want you to go commercial, it's always available for you or Rory now, I want you to come home at times if you can, I'll try to be out to see you as much as I can, and Takeru plans on spending at least one week a month with his Lion son" Dad says smiling."I have to admit, I'll be happy to see him, I"ve missed him a lot, despite how we fought over you, Claude" Dad says. "I"m glad I want my fathers to get along" I say softly. I kiss him. And I finish my breakfast. I take my plate to the kitchen and I kiss Alfred on the back of his neck. He turns and hugs me tightly. "I love you, Alfred" I say smiling. "I know, I love you too, Claude" he says softly.
