Silently Selene turned back to Donovan and laid down in the grass next to him

Silently Selene turned back to Donovan and laid down in the grass next to him. She didn't care if she was lying in a pool of his blood, drowning in it actually sounded like a good idea... I will not cry again. She reached out and touched his wounds.

This is real. Nothing's real 'til it's gone. He's gone... gone... gone... Who am I kidding? I want to die, Goddess I'm weak. Help me. Show me strength. Then the tears came. Selene rested her head on Donovan's shoulder, the heat was leaving his body. Silver tears ran down her face onto the wounds, and they began to shine.

Selene fell into deep sleep filled with memories of Donovan. The Goddess granted second life that night. Her tears were filled with love, sorrow, and the life of the Moon Goddess.

In her distress Selene failed to notice the warmth returning to his body. His breath had returned, and he wrapped his arms around her. All that was left of the damage was a very sore wolf, and a large scar. On and on they both slept oblivious to what was actually happening.
