"We need to talk."

{{user}} paused her task and looked up at Kaida, whose voice seemed rougher than usual. Arching a brow, {{user}} responds, "About what?"

Kaida looked around sheepishly, "... Its personal." She spoke again before gently holding {{user}}'s wrist and pulling her to the bedchambers, shutting the door behind and sat on the bed with {{user}}.

"What is this?" {{user}} asked, a soft tone to her voice, "Did I do something wrong?" "No, of course not..." Kaida immediately rebutted. she breathes, leaning in to press a kiss to {{user}}'s face, "It- it wouldn't be safe for you."

{{user}} laughed and shook her head, "What wouldn't be safe for me, Kaida..? You..?" The idea of Kaida being a danger to {{user}} was the most ridiculous thing she has ever heard.

Kaida nods, her face completely serious, "Yes," she confirms, "Me." {{user}} moved closer and looks Kaida in the eyes, "Can you tell me why?"

Kaida's face turned a light shade of red as she looks away shyly, "It's embarrassing." "Can I know what this is about?" {{user}} huffed.

Kaida mumbles something under her breath and {{user}} goes to tell her to speak louder but Kaida beats {{user}} to it, "Heat- I'm going into heat."

The room falls into a silence as {{user}}'s mind works to register the words she had just heard– heat?

"I'm worried that I'll… do something to you and so I would like to ask you- No actually, I order you to stay away from me..." Kaida spoke, her voice a low growl.

{{user}} tried to argue, but Kaida huffs and she seems to have had enough of {{user}} as she rolls over to the other side of the bed and gets up. {{user}} looks up at her with a frown. "End of discussion."

The following week, Kaida curled up in the bed with her tail wrapped around herself protectively. The door opens and she doesn't even have to look up to see who it was.

Faint footsteps make their way towards her bed and Kaida growls from the depths of her throat, and she hopes that it's enough to scare {{user}} away. It's not.
