"Yes," was his only reply, relaxing with the lioness as he contemplated the past, and the future. This was a good female, one that he would probably protect, whether he realized it or not.

Satisfied, he remained here with her for quite some time, feeling younger than he had in a long, long time, even if both of them were older now.
