Introduction

É um lobo enorme, nunca vi um de perto antes. Eu olho nos olhos do lobo, eles parecem mudar de verde para azul e depois para violeta, e eu respiro pesadamente. Será que ele vai me matar? Pensando bem, eu realmente não me importo. É quase como se eu esperasse que o lobo me fizesse esse favor.

"Prometa-me que você vai sobreviver", eu olho para a besta novamente.

"Você vai me fazer cumprir minha palavra, não vai?"

O lobo se senta sobre as patas traseiras, inclina a cabeça para cima e solta um uivo longo e forte. O som vibra no chão sob mim e vai diretamente ao meu coração, acalmando as chamas. Fico chocado a princípio, depois sinto a energia raivosa saindo do meu corpo. Eu desabo na areia, os pequenos grãos cortam a pele seca dos meus joelhos, mas isso não me incomoda, essa dor não é nada comparada à que sinto no peito.

Estou tremendo, chorando, tentando segurar a raiva que me mantinha em pé, mas ela está escapando. O lobo circula ao meu redor algumas vezes e depois se posiciona ao meu lado, choraminga um pouco antes de me surpreender colocando sua cabeça colossal no meu colo.

***Quando a Deusa quer fazer seu filho feliz, ela não tem ideia de que suas ações resultarão em duas novas espécies e selarão o destino de uma garota.

Chapter 1

Sinto o calor do fogo enquanto minha mãe adiciona mais lenha para manter a umidade fora da nossa caverna, ondas de calor acariciando minhas bochechas. Ela tem um brilho no rosto que eu nunca tinha visto antes e posso ouvi-la respirando como se não tivesse conseguido respirar por muito tempo. Lá fora, a chuva está caindo pela primeira vez desde que eu era criança e todas as almas na caverna estavam relaxadas e em silêncio, agradecendo ao grande céu por sua generosidade. Tem sido difícil, o sol tem sido furioso e a terra sofreu muito. A grama foi a primeira a morrer, o tapete verde e macio substituído pelo marrom áspero que fazia seus pés doerem só de andar sobre ele. Depois da grama foram os arbustos e as árvores, todos ficaram sem água e pararam de funcionar, esperando... Os animais deixaram nossa terra, procurando comida ou sendo reclamados pelo céu. O lago no topo da nossa montanha ainda tem um pouco de água, mas os peixes já se foram há muito tempo. Vivemos das colheitas que conseguimos cultivar, mas não é muito e nosso povo está fraco e muitos de nós doentes. Olho para o meu corpo, não sou nada além de pele queimada de sol e ossos, meu peito se agita a cada respiração porque está cheio da terra seca há tanto tempo. Meu cabelo comprido é a imagem cuspida da grama morta, seco, opaco e crocante ao toque.

Minha mãe vem e pega minha mão, puxando-me para a entrada da nossa caverna e para fora na chuva. A água me atinge e eu suspiro por ar, mas é a melhor sensação que já senti. As gotas duras fazem meus pequenos músculos tensos relaxarem e esfriam meu corpo quente. Sinto-as formigando sobre minha pele como uma colmeia de abelhas e eu choro. Choro de alegria pela nossa terra, pelo nosso povo e pelos animais que estão voltando. Minhas lágrimas salgadas se misturam com o doce sabor da chuva na minha boca e eu olho nos olhos da minha mãe e suas emoções refletem as minhas. Estamos girando, dançando, chorando e rindo juntas. Minha respiração está ficando difícil e eu tenho que desacelerar. Minha mãe coloca as mãos nos meus ombros, fazendo-me parar. Suas mãos sobem até meu rosto, afastando as longas mechas molhadas do meu cabelo do meu rosto. Ela beija meu nariz, minhas bochechas e meus lábios e encosta sua testa na minha. Sua oração é forte enquanto agradece ao Céu.

"Agradeço-te, belo céu, por me ouvir e responder, agradeço-te, belo céu, pelo teu presente à terra. Agradeço-te, belo céu, pelo teu presente ao nosso povo e agradeço-te, belo céu, pela vida da minha filha. Ela viverá, será forte e será tua serva."

Assim que a última palavra de sua oração saiu de seus lábios, minha força recém-descoberta me deixou. Minhas pernas desapareceram sob mim e eu caí no chão, meu peito está queimando e cada respiração parece chamas lambendo meu interior. Caio de joelhos e mãos, tentando tossir o fogo para fora, e a cada tentativa, um pouco mais de ar entrava. Respiro mais fundo, tusso mais forte e então sinto, é como se o fogo estivesse ajudando a derreter a poeira nos meus pulmões. Abro a boca e vomito. Muco cinza e quente espirra nas minhas mãos antes que a chuva o lave e eu estou respirando novamente, realmente respirando, respirações profundas e limpas até o fundo dos meus pulmões. Sem fogo, sem dor, sem falta de oxigênio. Olho para minha mãe, mesmo com a chuva caindo em seu rosto, posso ver que ela está chorando, mas são as lágrimas que seguem o sentimento que você tem quando pensa que perdeu algo importante para sua vida apenas para encontrá-lo novamente. Lágrimas de alegria e alívio.

Ela me ajuda a levantar e me abraça, e eu ouço seus soluços felizes contra meu cabelo. Estamos girando e dançando novamente e logo somos acompanhadas por vários outros da caverna. Crianças pulam nas poças, homens e mulheres se abraçam e se beijam. Eles recolhem água em potes para levar para dentro da caverna caso a chuva desapareça novamente.

Deito-me e fecho os olhos, o cheiro e o tamborilar da chuva fora da caverna me embalando para dormir, e um sorriso se forma no meu rosto. Estou quase lá, na terra de grama verde, animais e rios que não têm fim, quando meus olhos se abrem de repente com um vento frio lambendo meu rosto, deixando o gosto de cascalho molhado na minha língua. Vejo sombras se movendo na parede da caverna, rápidas demais para serem humanas, e então os gritos começam. Vozes cheias de pânico, homens, mulheres e crianças tentando fugir das sombras que os caçam. Ruídos úmidos de carne sendo rasgada e o som gorgolejante de gargantas cheias de sangue.

Minha mãe corre para o meu lado e se ajoelha na minha frente.

"Ouça-me, criança! Ele não vai te ver, mas pode te sentir. Você precisa ficar parada e esperar, não deixe que ele te pegue. Sobreviva! Você me ouviu? Prometa-me que vai sobreviver! Agora depende de você. Encontre o lobo e consiga o seu. É a única maneira de derrotá-lo."

Olhos dourados aparecem atrás da minha mãe. Ela o sente, mas em vez de lutar, gritar ou tentar escapar, ela mantém os olhos fixos nos meus e lentamente inclina a cabeça para o lado, expondo o pescoço. Os olhos dourados se aproximam e eu posso ver o rosto a que pertencem. Um homem com os traços mais bonitos que já vi, seu cabelo castanho era curto, nem tocava os ombros, pele pálida mas não doentia, ele tinha uma mandíbula forte, lábios vermelhos e cheios e suas maçãs do rosto eram altas, mas a carne que as cobria era saudável por nunca ter conhecido a fome. Seus olhos dourados eram emoldurados por cílios escuros e pesados sob um par de sobrancelhas grossas.

Quero sacudir minha mãe, fazê-la correr, mas estou congelada, minhas costas duras contra a parede de pedra atrás de mim. Estou hipnotizada pela beleza à minha frente. Será que irritamos os céus novamente? Será que o céu enviou essa beleza para nos punir?

Tudo aconteceu como em câmera lenta, o rosto bonito perto do pescoço da minha mãe, lábios cheios se abriram e dentes longos e afiados penetraram na carne dela. Sugando, engolindo, sugando e engolindo, o som me lembrava da água que eu bebia do cantil quando criança. O brilho da minha mãe desaparece, uma única lágrima rola por sua bochecha, e eu fecho os olhos.

Da próxima vez que abri os olhos, o fogo na caverna já tinha se apagado há muito tempo, o sol entrava pela abertura da caverna, orgulhoso de ter afastado a chuva. Fechei os olhos novamente, esperando que minha mãe acordasse logo para acender o fogo, eu nunca fui boa nisso. Tento ouvir sons na caverna, mas sou recebida com um silêncio mortal. Nenhuma mulher acalmando seus bebês chorando, nenhum dos homens se mexendo antes de sair para trabalhar. Os únicos sons eram os meus. Então o cheiro me atingiu. O cheiro de sangue, intestinos e corpos mortos. As memórias me atingiram como um raio. Mal conseguia respirar, precisava sair. Tentando encontrar forças, começo a me mover de mãos e joelhos na direção da abertura.

"Will you continue to disobey me?" he asks, his gaze cool and hard.
"Yes,"
He exhales, raises his hand, and brings it down to slap my naked as again... harder than before. I gasp at the impact. It hurts, but it is so hot, and sexy.
"Will you do it again?"
"No,"
"No, what?"
"No, Sir,"
"Best girl," he brings his lips to kiss my behind while he caresses it softly.
"Now, I'm going to fck you," He sits me on his lap in a straddling position. We lock gazes. His long fingers find their way to my entrance and insert them.
"You're soaking for me, baby," he is pleased. He moves his fingers in and out, making me moan in pleasure.
"Hmm," But suddenly, they are gone. I cry as he leaves my body aching for him. He switches our position within a second, so I'm under him. My breath is shallow, and my senses are incoherent as I anticipate his hardness in me. The feeling is fantastic.
"Please," I beg. I want him. I need it so badly.
"So, how would you like to come, baby?" he whispers.
Oh, goddess!
