THE BOND BETWEEN COMPANIONS GROWS STRONGER

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

In Selene's eyes it was visible the love and the hurt mixing, but above the emotion, she went according to justice, and as much as she loved Licaão, she would never allow him to continue with the bad behavior that left physical and emotional marks on the female's body.

"Pay attention, she is your mate and without her you will not survive, as punishment for all the bad things you have done to her" Selene looks firmly into the eyes of the lycanthrope in front of her "I will intensify the bond between you, every pain your mate feels, you will feel it too, if she is sad, you will be worse off, your role is to protect her and love her, her role is to help you, love you and take care of the offspring."

"If I feel everything she feels, when she dies will I die too?"

"No, depending on how she dies, but longing can kill, both sides" Selene speaks enigmatically.

The lycanthrope's eyes widened; to him, she couldn't be serious, this could only be a joke. But the goddess was serious, she approached him and put her hand on his neck, the heat emanating from her hand ran through all of Licaão's body making him sigh when he felt the touch, a silver light covered the region and the squeal of pain didn't scare her, when she removed her hand, the first letter of the female lycanthrope's name appeared, the male was gasping in pain still recovering.

"I just want you both to be happy, this is my gift to you," as soon as she spoke she disappeared from in front of Licaão and returned to her moon form in the big sky, which tonight is without stars.

The lycanthrope soon recovered, he knew exactly why he had become a werewolf, he knew that it was his beloved's twin brother who had made him fall into this disgrace, Máni made it clear how he would die by the arrow of the woman who stole their heart. However, Licaão did not die, and he vowed to make it a blessing. His female begat eight pups, four males and four females, he knew it was the moon goddess, that she made them to become mates. But the hatred he felt was too much, he was forced to live eternally pleasing his mate, even though she was made for him, his heart already belonged to another and he had no room for another.

Licaão raised his cubs and told several stories, he told about Máni and her sister, he also told that the moon goddess was the one who raised them. Licaão made divisions among his cubs. When they reached the age of sixteen, they were put to face each other, the strongest was elected, the one who would inherit his place when he died, and as expected, the eldest was the strongest, winning the title of genuine alpha. The second eldest won the alpha title, but was only head of his family/husband, the third got the beta title, and the fourth had no brute force like the others, was thin and weak, did not hunt and refused to kill any being, the youngest son was submissive and very sensitive. Licaão named him omega.

The moon goddess watched everything from above, she didn't completely approve of the regime set up by Licaão, but she couldn't keep interfering. The companion of the genuine alpha carried the traits of the moon goddess in her lupine form, with her white hair and dark blue eyes, this companion earned the name of genuine lunam, from her womb was generated the strongest lycanthrope of the entire species, having the ability to have only one offspring, being the second in command of the entire species, his dominance loses only to his companion. The alpha's mate was called Velut Luna, and from her womb all the lycanthropes of her pack were born, being able to be alpha, beta or omega; her coat is white with black legs. The beta's mate was given the title lunae, with a brown coat with a white spot on her back, she can only impregnate if the alpha male dies and his mate takes his place, she will have to kill the current velut luna. And finally the female omega is called luna cimex, her color is silver, her eyes are gray and she is the smallest, almost the size of a common wolf, her belly is dry, despite her great beauty, she is not good for reproduction, with everything, even the omega couple being the weakest, must be protected.

But the years went by, and Licaão passed away at the end of his millennium, and he and his mate died together. His sons made changes in the regime, and the moon goddess was put in the background. More years passed, and more and more they left the goddess in oblivion. The lycanthropes got mean, they hunted and ate humans, and this did not please Zeus one bit, they made humans into slaves, omegas into servants and luna cimex into prostitutes, several packs arose, but few still remembered the moon goddess.

She could not allow things to continue like this, when the genuine couple went to copulate in their lupine forms, the moon shone brightly and only the voice of the goddess could be heard.

"Get back on the right path, or your lineage will end" that was the promise in a nutshell.

But they did not listen to her and continued on their wrong path, the goddess was forced to keep her promise, but tell no one what lay between the lines of the fate she prepared.
