Selene Terra Firma

30 : Marriage

Co-existence between vampires and lycans has never happened before. Because none other race could bear a child of a lycan. Selene's existence proves that it is possible although it is a rare case.

Supervision of King Guano, he stopped Prince Fengari and King Vazo from interrogating Selene. Rather, he called all the princes' of the newer generation. To hold a meeting regarding the daughter of Asteri, Selene.

Ares who is still healing by that time went up. Diemos who was taking care of him guided used to the lycans dormitory. He was found by Cronus and was called for the assembly. Confirming that Selene was fine he did go with Cronus.

In Zeus's room, that is where the meeting was held. Both King has seated to the ground of fur as it was customs to lycans. King Vazo who has spent his younger years with lycans have known their customs and tradition.

Ares saw his father, he shot him a cold look. King Vazo did throw him a blank look and said nothing after that. Zeus, Cronus, and Ares sit together. In front of them, the three also sit comfortably.

"What is this meeting regarding Selene for?" Ares has started the conversation.

"Take it easy son of Vazo." King Guano laughed. Ares snorted but remained silent.

"Selene, you call her Selene." Prince Fengari proclaimed.

"That's her name," Cronus responded. "Why did you call her Terra Firma?"

"That's also her name." Prince Fengari replied.

"What do you mean?" Zeus asked wrinkling his forehead.

"Cronus, Zeus...Terra, no—Selene is your cousin. She's my daughter." Prince Fengari stated slowly and loud enough but the three young men did not absorb the information.

They could not even retort by the fact. King Vazo looked at Ares. "She's also your half-sister." He stated casually.

... Silence.

"S-she...Selene...she's a human." Cronus stammered as he tried to protest the sudden exclamation. He has confirmed it. She's a human.

"What's a human Cronus?" King Guano asked.

"I-it's...it's her kind. Her race."

"What I mean, what does make her a human?"

"..." Cronus paused for a moment. "She has a weak body. Short stamina. She has no abilities like any other creature in this world. She sleeps every sixteen hours for eight hours. She's sentimental, she cries easily...Selene, she's a human."

"How old is she?" King Vazo intercepted.

"...she's turning twenty." Zeus who has been listening quite started to grasp everything.

"Right, she's haven't gone to awakening yet." King Vazo replied and the three become serious.

If she did not undergo awakening yet, it makes sense. But the oldest age who had to undergo awakening was eighteen. There is no case that any of the race has to undergo awakening older than that. Since awakening is necessary for them to survive.

"Is Selene's queen mother's daughter." More than asking, Ares said it in a stating manner. Is that the reason why he felt so close to her? Because he is his sister?

No, that can't be. His feelings for her are genuine love. Love as a woman. He doesn't see her as a sister. He wanted her. Not as a blood relation but as his wife. He also wants to protect her at the same time, he wanted to love her with intimacy. It wasn't what a brother would do...he is sure of it.

It is different from the twins. He saw how Diemos took care of Phobos. It is different. So different.

He racked his brain to remember what does his Queen mother looks like but he couldn't remember. He could not see a thing. He doesn't care before but since Selene's got involved, he wanted to remember.
