Epilogue

Some years later...

Max was in the middle of meditating in a meadow near the house and as he was concentrating, he started looking back on all the things that have happened to him in the past; from having an adopted family, gaining a brotherhood with Arizona, falling for Saori, making some accomplishments with his dream...all of those moments that will never be forgotten and will always be remembered for the rest of his life.

"Baba?"

Max opened his eyes and he turns around and saw a little white tiger cub standing behind him and he lets out a smile and said, "Hey, little guy? What are you doing here?"

"I was looking for you."

He picks him up and puts him on his lap and said, "You found me, Mason."

Mason puts his arms around his dad and in response to that, Max hugs him deeply as he felt a deep sense of affection with being a dad and he knows that he's gonna give something that he never had as a cub himself.

"Hey, Maxie. I see you found Mason."

Max turns around and sees his wife, Saori coming up behind him and he said to him, "Yep, I guess he was trying to find me."

Saori chuckled softly and he brought both tigers over to the house and to their surprise; Arizona, Akashi, Miyo and Sierra came by to see them and everyone was all smiles, just visiting them. Even Sierra and Arizona's new litter of pups comes over to play with Mason and the rest of his sibs.

"How does it feel being a dad?" asked Akashi, happily.

Max chuckled softly and he looked at Akashi in the eye and replied, "It's definitely the best thing I could ever do. They bring the most out of you, but the bring out the best in you."

"Now you see that this is the same thing I felt when my kids were born." Akashi replied.

Miyo agreed with that and she looked up at Max and said, "You've come a long way, Maxie. You really have grown up to be a great person, a husband, a father and a friend."

Arizona couldn't agree more and he said, "I'm so proud of you. You've definitely gained a new perspective on life."

"And I wouldn't have it any other way." Max replied.

Later that evening

All the cubs were fast asleep and as Max comes in to check on them, he looks at them with a smile on his face while having that warm feeling in his heart that he's very lucky to be a father of five cubs; three boys and two girls; and he knows that he'll do anything he can for them. Not to mention, anything for his beloved mate Saori.

"Good night, kids." Max whispered, as he left the room.

He makes his way to Saori's bedroom, but not before looking at all of the pictures of them in their younger years and he never thought that any of this would happen, but he's very grateful for everything he has and wouldn't trade it for anything in the world.

Just then, he noticed Saori coming behind him and she lets out a smile and told him, "Looking at some pictures?"

"Yeah, sometimes I look back and ask myself, 'Did all of this really happen to us?' and it really did make our love grow stronger than anything." Max replied.

"Everything happens for a reason...and this reason is well worth having. I'm really lucky to have you as my mate." Saori said.

"Me too." Max said, with a smile.

They kissed each other in the lips and Saori looks up at Max and asked, "Wanna share our love in our room?"

"Yep." Max said, happily.

They both made their way to the room and Max placed his arms around Saori's waist and kissed her neck and both of them closed the door to their room and continued to show each other their love and affection for each other...along with the sounds of love between these two tigers.
