Endymion Mythology Novels & Stories

Aunty cleared her throat. "I bet they too fell in love," I said. "Yes, but it was a different type of love, it was the type of love that helps to heal a broken soul. Selene still longed for Helios and she still hoped to find him one day. In the meantime, she became the mother figure to Endymion's young son, his mother died of a fever when he was only a couple months old. She became very protective of the child and the child grew up and referred to her as his mother and she loved him like the son she always wanted."

“A long time ago, before the time of the wolf, the world was quiet and peaceful. During the day the human folk worked hard to farm their land and sow their crop. The children would run and play in the sunlight and the humankind thrived. Though, alone in the sky sat the beautiful Selene, the Goddess of the moon. Every night she would ride her dragon chariot across the sky to bring the moon to the people. But as the sun fell and the night sky spread across the land, she became lonely, as the humans would sleep through her glorious night sky. Night after night she searched the land for sign of any human that would splendour in her night time, but none did. Until one night she came across a lone

I was getting a headache just trying to keep up with all she just said, “You said you’re one of the Menae… is that like The Vὅlsung?” She laughed softly, ‘Nothing like that. We aren’t a pack and do not all have to exist in one pack. If you wished to make an alliance with another pack, and wanted assurances that they could not betray you, you could grant one of that pack a spirit of the Menae. We are the 50 daughters of you and Endymion.’ “Endymion, I’ve heard that name before…”

She is known to the elven community as GoldMoon. Previous generations of humans understood that supernatural beings existed, and they made up their stories of gods and goddesses to explain them. The Greeks felt that the Ceryneian Hind was sacred to Artemis, the goddess of the hunt. However, it was really the elves that treated GoldMoon like she was sacred. She has lived with us for many generations.

Zak says. “If we were only children of Pan and Selene, we would always be wild creatures. Nymphs, satyrs, centaurs. But we aren’t. Of course, we could remain in our wolf form all the time if we wish, but we always have the ability to shift into human form. No, young ones, Selene had two mates. One, the god Pan. The other, a human man named Endymion. We get our wolves from Pan, our pull to the moon from Selene, and our human selves from Endymion,” Lucille says. She calmly blows on her drink while Zak and I have to re-evaluate the basis of our entire existence and religion.

I let out a cough and rubbed the back of my neck. “Yeah, Mom, sorry. This is Demi she is a… um” Damn, what was she called again. “A Keres” Demi answered for me. “Right, a Keres. She assists the Gods in a way kind of like a Valkyrie.” My mother nodded her head. “She was sent here by our Goddess Selene and the Dragon God Typhon to keep an eye on me.”

He had no idea, but he found himself saying, "I can fight." She nodded, finally looking away from him. "Good." They all began talking as soon as she turned away from him, Leonidas learning their names in quick succession. Hercules, he was a Zeus Familia and from the way he spoke, a High Family. The girl on him, Aellai, Artemis, he was not sure what she was or not. Then on another log entirely, two other people, Odysseus, a Poseidon Familia and Dido, an Athena Familia.

"Goddess no! Happy for you guys, really I am." I thump his arm, "you are mated with Emerald just not in the way you think." Eros can have multiple mates but in a different form than the typical mate bond. They can love these people and have lifelong connections, but it's not a physical thing. If those who are mated need to do this whole thing to fuse that bond, it will be unbreakable.

The three of us turned to her. "I also heard that the future Moon Goddess is the daughter of the current Moon Goddess and His Majesty’s stepfather," she added. Really? "I mean, everyone knows that, right?" she said, laughing nervously. No, I didn’t. "I’ve never heard about it before. So, the future Moon Goddess visiting the Lycan Realm is Vincent’s daughter?" I clarified. Jiya nodded. Oh, so Vincent gave up immortality to marry Charlotte. He must love her deeply.

“Who are you?” He chuckled with a voice that reminded me of Santa Clause. “My Dearest brought you here in your slumber but did not tell you of me. How typical.” I clicked my tongue in annoyance, recognizing the feeling and action as a habit of Selene when she didn’t like what she was hearing. “I am Endymion. A mortal of ancient times, at that point known as the consort of the Goddess. Nowadays you would probably refer to me as her lover or husband.” A happy expression filled with contentment filled his eyes. I assumed he was thinking fondly of Selene. “You said you’re a mortal of ancient times, how are you still here? Are you in the spirit world?” My curiosity was now heightened. I wanted to
