Garou had no idea how long he'd been in the bathroom, but realizing that the burning wasn't going away, he stripped and turned the shower on the coldest setting.
It stung his skin as soon as the ice cold water hit, but it quickly doused the flames and Garou felt his body quickly relax and nearly give out. Apparently, that had taken a lot of energy out of him, trying to fight such animalistic urges. It was one thing to be aroused, but this was something incredibly different, and he knew that. It was as though he had zero control over any part of his mind or his body. It quickly turned into a physically painful reaction if he didn't succumb to these primal demands his body was making of him. It was like a territorial animal was coming forward, pushing his consciousness to the dark crevices of his mind so it may do as it pleases. He didn't know where they were coming from as this had never happened before. It was only when Kaana had been around him, recently.
He had to get out of there, but his mind was still fuzzy from drinking so much. He was in no shape to go anywhere. He was stuck.
"Garou, is everything okay?" he heard Kaana on the other side of the door, "You've been in there for an hour."
Garou gathered his breath and called out to her, "I'm fine...!" feeling more sober and now that his problem had gone away, he turned off the water and got dressed again.
Kaana was waiting in the room, sitting on the bed worriedly. She didn't know what to think when Garou ran like a caged animal. After being in the bathroom for so long, she was worried that something might've happened. At least, he had answered her through the door, otherwise, she would've called the emergency number. Just then, the door to the bathroom slowly opened. Garou immerged, looking worn out, but otherwise, okay.
Kaana sprang up and confronted him, "Are you alright?"
"I'm fine," Garou tiredly excused himself and trying to walk passed her, "Too much to drink."
Kaana frowned as he went to sit, but she quickly stopped him as she grasped his arm, "Garou, are you sure you're okay?"
Garou halted, the feeling of her skin against his was slowly reigniting the heat he had doused. He turned to her, "Why are you so worried? I told you, I'm fine."
"I'm allowed to worry. You really scared me when you doubled over, like that," Kaana then went and wrapped her arms around his torso, burying her face in his chest, "You looked like you were in pain."
Garou froze at the contact, his body tensing. His heart started pounding and he waited with bated breath, scared that the scorching heat will return. Then, an unusual calm came over him and he couldn't stop himself, as he wrapped his arms around her smaller frame. He leaned in, and took in her scent, burying his nose in the crook of her neck. Honeycombs and vanilla. Garou felt his mind clouding over again, the burning came back, but it was more of a throbbing heatwave. He wanted to fight this urge as his inner beast reawakened, but his was physically and mentally at his limit after the last bout of heat.
'This isn't good. I need to pull away. I can't--' his thought process stopped when Kaana pulled away and looked up at him. Her eyes were smoldering, her cheeks were still glowing from the alcohol. Her hair draped along her shoulders, like a blood red waterfall.
She looked ravishing.
The air was suddenly filled with this electrical charge and an invisible wave hit Garou, making him dizzy. It was overwhelming and it smelled so inviting; delicious. In an instant, he knew what it was and where it was coming from. It was the smell Kaana's arousal and his senses went absolutely haywire. Kaana noticed his eyes glazing over, his pupils shrinking into slits again. Kaana's breath turned ragged as a wave suddenly hit her, as well.
It was coming from Garou. It was like the aura he emitted to strike fear into his foes, but this was different. It was so dominating that it made her feel weak in the knees. Without even realizing, Kaana started to lean towards Garou's face.
Garou gave little resistance, as his last conscious thought was, 'Just...one time...' and he succumbed to his inner beast. If he can have her just one time, to bask in her warmth, her entire being, then it would be enough. His eyes slid closed as their lips met. The euphoria that followed was high inducing, as they both had waited so long to kiss one another. His grip on her waist tightened and Kaana moaned into his mouth at the forceful pressure.
