Melissa was not displaying normal symptoms of being sick. Her skin was flushed, and her eyes looked glazed over. Amane could not figure out what was happening at first.
But Kristia noticed what was wrong once he grabbed Melissa's hand. Melissa hissed before she attacked Kristia. It seemed to be an unconscious attack, but it caused Kristia's neck to bleed.
He looked at Melissa with a horrified but understanding expression.
"Shit! Don't tell me you are going into heat now. This is the worst timing you could have chosen for such a thing."
Kristia complained, but he was filled with worry. They did not have enough resources to take care of the heat.
Ideally, Kristia would like to take care of Melissa himself, but too many factors made it impossible.
And the biggest one was that Melissa rejected him not even a few seconds ago. His ego was wounded, and Kristia needed to lick his pride.
