Kisu raised his rusty head at Pied's howl and rushed forward as fast as he could. Panic grasped at his chest as he came close and could smell that she'd gone into heat.

Kisu tried to keep his voice even and calm, but a fierce rage bubbled under the surface. As he said, he did not want any males near his mate at this moment in time.
