Nocturne Summit Easy to be just you and me

When she chanced a look at the alpha, she saw no anger, only understanding, and it was a relief to know he wasn't angry with her too. She nodded in response to his question. I thought I knew what to expect, but everything I knew about it didn't at all prepare me for feeling so close to losing control of myself, she explained. I guess that's why I thought leaving was a good idea. She had felt attraction to others many times, but this was different. It was like her body was trying to take over, making her feel needy and raw, and she just hadn't thought it was a good idea to be around anyone while she was feeling like that.

Yeah, I know what you mean, she replied. It was hard for both of them not to be influenced by her heat. I care about you as my alpha and friend, but it's like my body is taking that and twisting it and making me-- she cut herself off and looked away, feeling like she had said too much. Surely he knew how she was feeling currently with her hormones urging her to let nature run its course--to create new life. She guessed her scent was making him feel similarly, but if they gave in, then there was sure to be disastrous consequences, not to mention she would likely find herself facing bringing children into an environment where their lives might be in danger or fleeing the mountain pregnant and alone. Neither situation was ideal, but hormones were tricky and used your own feelings against you to make you forget all about logic and consequences.
