Elián;
I groan in discomfort and pain as I twist and turn.
Everything is blurry and fading in and out. Sounds, smell… everything.
"Make it stop!" I scream inwardly at Elien as the discomfort is maddening.
"I can't… I don't know how…" He replies, and I pause.
"What do you mean you can't? Is this your first heat!?" I scream at him again, and he grunts in response.
"My first heat with you? Yes. The first heat this bad? Yes!" He replies, and from the tone of his voice, I can tell he feels the ache too.
This is suffocating. I'm so uncomfortable, my whole body is starting to hurt.
Queen Cassia places me on a bed, and I toss and thrash about in it.
There's only one thing on my mind. Koda. I need him. I want him.
I… He's the only one who can make this stop… the only one my body will listen to.
Being far from him hurts.
"Koda…" I whimper, and I feel someone gently stroke my hair. When I open my eyes, Queen Cassia's face is hovering above me.
