Nate was unhappy. He didn't dislike his pups, even if they were clingy with his wife. Still, they could be very, very annoying.

It was Sunday morning, two days after his failed night with Lara. In the end, she had slept with those little beasts hugging her tightly on that small bed. She had woken up on Saturday with a backache and a wavering mood.

However, she had been kind to him and the pups. She had asked Melanie for permission to prepare some breakfast, and she had fed her family with fresh pancakes.

Then, she had been absent-minded for the whole day. She would walk alone in the garden or read a book in the living room, but she didn't interact much with Nate or the pups.

Then, Sunday morning, she woke up with a smile. Most likely because she had managed to sleep.

She had prepared breakfast for everyone again, and then she had spent some time colouring with her kids.

Nate had observed her from afar, afraid of approaching her because she would blush and avert her eyes every time their gazes met. She was avoiding him, in some way.

Melanie had left them alone for most of the time, and she would play with her grandchildren when she felt the adults needed some time for themselves. Yet, until late in the morning, neither of the two had the courage to approach the other.

«I've prepared a snack for you, pups,» Melanie said from the kitchen. «Would you like to try it?»

The pups threw their pens on the table and ran away, hungry as always. Lara got up from the carpet and stretched her arms and legs before turning to Nate.

«Are you okay?» she inquired.

«I am. You?»

«Yes,» she said, smiling tenderly.

«Then why are you avoiding me?»

«I am not.»

«You don't want to look me in the eye.»

«Oh, that...» She lowered her gaze and bowed her head, wondering how to explain. She wasn't used to that kind of thing either, and she felt a little embarrassed to tell him the truth.

However, he deserved to know.

«Let's talk about it outside,» she said. «On the terrace. It's such a nice day.»

Nate nodded, following her to the garden sofa and sitting next to her, too close for her current mood.

«Since Friday... I feel... ehm... It's weird,» she sighed.

«Have I done something bad?» he asked, bowing forward to see her face. Her scent invaded his nose, and he noticed a sweet and spicy aroma mixed with her usual. He could recognise it, and his lips distended in a grin.

He couldn't even mind that she would get scared at that reaction. He was too happy to worry.

«Tell me,» he ordered. «Now.»

«Oh, Nate,» she sighed. «I'm feeling attracted. Literally, all the time. Even when it's not proper, or when the situation should make me focus on something else. It's been two days that I can't look at you without feeling... weird.»

«Weird as in you want to run away?»

«Oh, no! The contrary!»

«Mhm... I see. We shall find a solution for you not to feel weird. What do you think you need?»

«Don't tease me,» she complained. «You know very well what I mean!»

«What do you mean?»

«I'm attracted!»

«Oh, just attracted? Are you recognising my qualities?»

«I mean, it's not the usual attraction,» she whispered, getting close so that only he could hear. «I have some thoughts, and I... I've never felt like this before!»

«You're in heat,» he said, shrugging. What was there to be so embarrassed about?

«I'm not a wolf,» she reminded him, covering her face with both hands. She turned her head to the other side, and he couldn't help but reach out and move her arms away.

He waited for her to open her eyes and licked his lips at her red face. How could she be so cute and arousing at the same time? Was he also getting in heat?

«Humans do have bodily needs just like we, wolves, do,» he pointed out. «You don't have the Moon guiding your cycles, but that doesn't mean it's not normal to feel...» What did she say? «Weird?»

«It never happened before,» she said.

Also, she was going to have her period soon. The night of the new moon was behind the corner, after all.

«Oh,» she muttered. «I see.»

It was normal! She was normal!

She smiled happily, and Nate's heart skipped a beat.

«It's just because of my period. I'm feeling like this because of that. I'm not turning crazy.»

«No, you're not... And is it so crazy to feel attracted to me? Am I ugly?»

He sulked, letting go of her hands and leaning back on the seat, moving his eyes to the garden.

«I didn't mean it like that. It's just... It's worse than usual, Nate.»

«Is there any usual?»

«Yes. I'm always attracted to you. But it's bearable, usually. I don't think about doing lewd things every moment of the day. I can function.»

«I see. Do you think I can help you solve it and function again?» he offered, forgetting to pout and returning completely available for Lara.

«I don't know,» she chuckled. «And I don't want you to feel like you need to do something, Nate. Your feelings are also important.»

«What if I felt aroused as well?»

Was that the path to follow? Or was it better to show her a rational man, in control of his emotions, to avoid scaring her?

«Oh, well... Then it would be fine. I guess.»

«Listen, Lara. I don't want to press you. I'm just saying... You can sleep in my room tonight. I'm not telling you we should do anything, of course! It can be just sleeping.»

She blinked.

«In your room?»

«Maybe it can solve your problem.»

«But... I'm a little dangerous now,» she whispered. «I don't know what I could do if we were alone.»

Oh, were there sweeter words for his ears?

«Don't worry, Lara. I'm a powerful wolf.. You can't take advantage of me that easily,» he lied.
