Ivy

“Oh my Santa, I think the big guy poisoned me,” I groan into the quiet of my gilded prison, clutching my stomach as it gurgles and cramps worse than the one time I had the exploding spritz. It was absolutely disgusting, and I’ve avoided all fruitcakes since.

That must be why he fled from my room last night when I offered to share the food he made for me. He knew that he laced it with something and didn’t want the aftereffects.

Figgy Frost-fudger.

My body trembles as I curl into a tight ball as the cramps in my belly hit me like a ton of bricks, almost like the bricks that caved in when I destroyed the Ginger Cookery. Except this time it is punctuated by a flash of pain.

A whimper slips past my pursed lips as I lose myself to gut-wrenching sensations flowing through my limbs.

Time disappears to the agony I’m experiencing. When I come back to myself, I’m covered in sweat, stuck to the sheets beneath me, and I feel like I’m going to die. But the poison wreaking havoc on my system doesn’t care about that. I cramp again, but this time I’m left stunned as a gush of slick follows.

Oh holly, no. The big guy didn’t poison me. I’m in figgy heat.

This can’t be happening. It’s nowhere near the time of my heat as it is. But all the signs are here. I must have missed it when I first woke up. But that still doesn’t help my predicament. Normally when I go into heat, I have a few days of nesting that my biology demands. But this time there wasn’t any of that.

What in the holly am I going to do? I don’t have any of my usual toys I use during my heats to help.

Your mates are right down the hall, my mind whispers to me. But I flip that grinch off. The only one that may help me is Bryce—possibly River—but Tristan would rather see me in agony if his attitude toward me is anything to go by.

My kitty clenches around nothing as I’m hit with pain once again, and I cry out as I lose myself to it once more.

When clarity arrives once more, I find myself completely naked, all blankets thrown to the floor, my fingers deep in my kitty, and a deep growl coming from the door. My eyes dart up to find Tristan standing with the door wide open, his eyes glued to where my fingers are.

Icicles, I may hate him, but he’s got something I so desperately need to make the pain go away.

“Tristan, it hurts,” I whimper, imploring him with my eyes to help. To do anything to stop this. Even if it’s only for a moment.

He steps forward as if in a trance, and I spread my legs wider, pounding my fingers into my kitty. My eyes drop from his green orbs to the promise of relief pressing against the sweatpants encased around his lower body.

Holly, he’s huge.
