Malleus had been acting weird lately. Ever since you pointed out the extra Dragon scales growing on him, now he's been avoiding you left and right.
"Malleus, stop picking at them. More scales will only take their place." Lilia reprimanded Malleus but he didn't listen as he kept pick at the scales, pacing up and down in the dorm lounge. "Calm down Waka-sama! You'll be fine, just breathe", "Sebek is right Malleus, just relax... I'm sure your heat will pass like it never happened..." Silver and Sebek tried to comfort the fae prince but that only made him more restless.
"As long as you haven't imprinted on anyone as a potential mate, you should be fine." Lilia turned to Malleus, and noticed that he looked away not meeting his eyes... "Malleus.... My dear boy, you haven't... Imprinted on someone....right?" The silence from Malleus only made him more guilty. "Malleus Meleanor Draconia, swear to me and your kingdom that you haven't imprinted anyone to be your mate."
"It...was by mistake... I didn't know I was imprinting on them! " that reply only made Lilia stress out more, "Father... What does imprinting have to do with anything?" Lilia gave Silver a look, the kind a parent would give when the time has come to give their child 'the talk.' "You see...when a fae imprints on someone, it's a binding vow to someone they love in a romantic way. Once a fae imprints on someone, it makes them mates for life..."
He took in another breath to continue, "basically... It's permanent and when the fae in question goes into their heat, they seek out that mate on instinct. Meaning if that fae is near their mate, they um...'get busy' so to speak. " be spoke to Malleus again, " it is very important that you tell us who you imprinted on, so we can try our best to keep you away from them."
Malleus could go red in the face, "You already know who it is..." Lilia took some time to figure out the 'who' in question, "Oh Sevens...it's {{user}}...."
