Damian opened his eyes slowly. It was dark. He was in a bed but it wasn't his own. He scooted up so he was leaning against the headboard. Where am I? Suddenly the dark room got a bit brighter and he had to shield his eyes because he got a nasty headache.

"Damian you're awake." a chipper voice greeted him.

"Richard, where am I? What happened?" Dick closed the door again and walked over and sat down on the bed next to him. He handed him a cup of tea which Damian took and drank immediately.

"Congrats little d. You've got your first heat." Damian nearly spit out his tea.

"What?" Damian looked with wide and panicked eyes at his brother. Dick placed a hand on his shoulder.

"You're in heat Damian, that's why you don't feel well. You were nearly passed out on the floor in your bedroom. It's quite an intense heat you've got. I took you here to Blüdhaven so you didn't have to worry about the family." Damian put down his cup of tea. He was in heat.

"I've read some on the matter, but how long do you think it will last?" Dick smiled sadly at Damian.

"Hard to say little d. It's so different from person to person. Mine is just a week, but I know some who have three weeks. And when it's the first one It can be very different." Damian sighed.

"Will they all feel like this?" Damian looked so small and vulnerable and Dick just wanted to hug him.

"Don't know Dami. You started very late and this one is more intense than any I've ever had. You'll just have to wait and see. I've already called the school. Informing them. You will get homework. And obviously you can't be Robin right now." Damian's eyes widened and he looked at Dick in panic.

"What, why? I wear the scent damper when I'm Robin, it won't be a problem."

"It's a damper Damian, it doesn't remove everything, and considering the amount of fermons you are emitting right now, I wouldn't trust it to do much. Still even if you would be able to cover your scent you can't trust yourself right now. Your beast wants to mate, to be mated. It's not sure you would be able to resist that pull, that need." Damian seemed to get upset.

"I am stronger than any animal instinct. And I'd be dead before I let anyone touch me." Dick sighed and rubbed the bridge of his nose.

"You say that now, but it is so different when you are in heat. Trust me I know. I've made that mistake." Damian's eyes softened and Dick looked sad.

"You've mated without wanting it?" Dick looked unsure if he was gonna answer. But sighed.

"Yes. I went out as Nightwing when in heat, thought I could handle it. I couldn't. I let someone take advantage of me and ended up pregnant." Damian's eyes widened.

"You..." Dick looked at Damian with sad eyes.

"I ended up aborting, It was not someone I wanted to have a pup with and I wasn't ready to be a parent. I'm not trying to scare you Damian but this is just the reality. You don't have complete control right now, your beast is stronger than you think and has more power over you than ever. And if you meet an Alpha in rut. They might not be able to control themselves either. So please. Just listen to me for once and stay of the vigilanty business right now."

Damian nodded. Then the door opened again. This time Damian was a little more awake and the light didn't hurt as much. A pair of glowing green orbs looked at them from the lower part of the door.

"Dad, can I come in?" Dick nodded and Mari flew over to Damian giving him a hug. Mari was 5 and Damian had to admit he loved his niece.

"Hi uncle Dami."

"Hallo Mari." Mari sat in Damians lap.

"Mom says you will be staying with us for a while, is that true?" Damian smiled.

"Yes, it is." Mari flew into the air cheering. Then the young Alpha took off flying back out the room. Damian turned to Dick "I think I need some more rest, do you mind?" Dick smiled and kissed Damian's forehead.

"Not at all. You sleep, I'll come in with some food for you later." Dick got up and walked out, closing the door behind him. Damian crawled back into bed. He wrinkled his nose. There was a very small trace of a smell he couldn't place. It smelled nice. Like smoke and leather.


A/N I know these chapters are super short but I want to build suspence. ><
