Heads Up! This is based on a dream I had! So that's why it's crappy. I felt like I had to share it though, you're welcome I hope. Don't worry homies I cut out most of the weird parts and I filled in the blanks! This is not omegauniverse or a soulmate au. This idea all came out of my own head when I was asleep so sure ya give credit where it's due please! Thanks!

Mate Bonds. Scientists have many different theories to explain what they are, and why they exist. And while some believe that Mates are similar to soulmates, someone you where destined to be with. More practical groups lean towards the more logical explanation introduced by Dr. H. Lee in his book; The Mystery Of Mates.

Dr. H. Lee explains that love and lust are both the product of a different chemicals and hormones, and Mates Bonds are not much different. Studies show that when a person finds their Mate they are usually someone that said person has know for at least six months or over, Dr. H. Lee suggests that it is because the human body chooses a compatible Mate and creates a Mate Bond itself.

He proposes that the body takes in and stores all the chemical reactions that are produced when said owner of the body is interacting with the potential Mate. The body does the same with the chemicals and aura that the potential Mate releases, it continues to do this for the required amount time (length of time may differ) and it compares the collected info between itself and the potential Mate.

If the potential Mate and said person are compatible then the process of choosing a Mate is halfway completed. But before the potential Mate is subconsciously chosen as a Mate, the brain must release certain chemicals strong enough to trigger the process.

Once the chemicals are released the potential Mate becomes said person's Mate. In most cases, Mates mutually choose to each other, but a few incidents have been recorded were a person has one sidedly entered a Mate bond. Fortunately, it is possible to find more than one Mate in a lifetime.

One usually discovers their Mate through a bodily process called 'Heat'. When someone enters a Mate bond they subconsciously desire to mate with and enter a relationship, with their Mate. To do this they begin to produce a particular, unique scent that only their Mate with recognize and smell.

The scent with stir up chemicals and hormones that produce lust and affection, in both the Mate in Heat and the Mate that they are trying to attract. it is similar to the estrous cycle (mating season, or animals heat) but shouldn't be confused with it. Unlike the estrous cycle, Heat isn't a cycle at all, Heat rarely happens more than once or twice when a person acquires a Mate.

The strength and length of a Heat can greatly vary as well. Some individuals are unable to go through a Heat strong enough to attract their Mate, thankfully, today there are many manmade pills and tablets (as well as other methods) that people can consume to help their bodies create an adequate Heat.

Pills and tablets are not always used for the purpose of create strong Heats, seeing as Heats are commonly few and rare (especially within recent years), many take them to help them find their Mate faster, or to simply stimulate their bedroom activities.

This is simply Dr. H. Lee's explanation of Mates, many other theories exist and most are also just as plausible. But there are basics that you can can be certain of.

1. When an individual finds their Mate they are highly likely to stay together for life. 2. Individuals usually discover their Mate through some sort of Heat. 3. Relationships between two individuals that don't have a Mate bond usually fail. 4. Not all individuals have a Mate bond. 5. No one knows for absolute certain how and why Mate bonds exist.

Vampires and other humanoid creatures also can have Mate bonds. Zero Kiryu the level D hunter is well aware of Mate bonds just like the rest of the nation, but what does he think of them? Well, he thinks they fucking suck.
