Laur1182 gave me the idea and pretty much the plot for a few of the next sections because I'm useless and I love her🤍
The next morning
Kirishima and Bakugo were discussing something with the lords when I reached the courtyard "So, what's the plan?" I clapped my hands together "there she is! Our beautiful spymaster!" I blushed intensely at the nickname "g-guys, c'mo-""no, dumb hair is right, I mean look at you! Damn! You must've dropped straight out of heaven cause you're my guardian angel"
I cleared my throat as Bakugo got very close "I prefer demon but can we please stick to the topic?" I knew it was a long shot but I couldn't understand while they were acting this way, especially in front of the lords. I hadn't done anything different today so I looked exactly the same!
"We are. You look like a damn queen today!" I scoffed at how bold he was, was he being serious right now?! This talk usually only happened in frisky moments under the sheets if I was lucky. Not in royal company in what was meant to a calm-ish time
"Well your 'Queen' is asking you to fill her in on what the hell's going on?!" My arms folded across my chest as my ears dropped in frustration. All I wanted was answers, just words! And I was getting pillow talk in the wrong place and time?! I give up!
The only thing Bakugo did was boop me on the nose with his finger smirking "I'm gonna go find out from someone's making sense" I tried to move away but Kirishima threw himself at my waist on his knees as his hands linked behind my back "N-no, stay!" I realised what position we were in and looked away becoming more flustered by the second
"We believe seeking the dryads would be a wise decision, Todoroki and I would be honoured to accompany you, but only if you'll let us" a small smile came across my face as my fingers pried Kirishima off my hips "I'm okay with it as long as everyone else is. Ok, Kiri you're really going to have to let go - I'm losing circulation to my entire bottom half"
Bakugo began hugging my top half from behind "I'll make it even" the prince attempted to loosen their grips with his sword slipping in between me and them and pushing them away but they just came right back like some kind of magnet.
It was only at that point in time that I realised what was happening or what month it was - Kit season. That's why they were acting so weird! I was unintentionally giving off a scent that set their pheromones on fire with only one thing in mind...children.
I didn't think it would have an effect on them because they're dragons! It didn't work on the lords because they're humans, but I didn't think it worked on anything but catfolk until now?! How would I explain this to the dryads?! How would I explain this to anyone?!
The second I managed to break free, I ran like hell back to my room and locked the door behind me. I trashed the room searching for a bottle that could temporarily help them to back to normal, but when I did find it, there was one 'small issue' - it was empty.
I resorted to one of those metal diapers men used on women in my village. God knows what it was actually meant to do except display ownership but it fitted the situation I'd got myself in.
"Oh angel~" my breath hitched in my throat as Kiri's voice sounded outside the doorIf he was here, that meant that Bakugo couldn't be far behind. Out of the corner of my eye, my nightmares were confirmed. There in the window stood Bakugo with a delirious look in his eye. I could tell he was still him but he was driven by his emotions, and Bakugo was a very emotional dragon!
Once I'd grabbed everything, I opened the door forgetting Kirishima was there using a sword to keep him at bay, he grinned wildly as I walked forward with the blade at his neck forcing his feet to step backwards. We continued this movement until we reached the great hall again "Stay, g-good dragon?"
I reunited with the the lords who looked just as bewildered as I felt. I went to open my mouth but Bakugo burst through the doors from the courtyard "There you are!" I raised the sword again "I hate to say this but, No. Just stay put until we figure this out"
In the end, we had to lock the dragons out "So you're saying that they can't control it?" I sighed nodding "it should get slightly easier as the month goes on but yea, I'm the one driving them insane. And I can't even control it. I'm a mess!"
I was having a full mental breakdown minus the crying however if the lords weren't present, I'd be a freaking waterfall. The one with the green hair, patted my back comfortingly "we'll figure something out. Can the dryads help?"
I hummed in confirmation trying to work through my problems like any rational being would but there was one problem...I lacked the ability to be rational! I had two irresistible dragon men wanting nothing more than me and yet i had to deny them completely all because it wouldn't be right and i wasn't ready to have kids of my own! I always knew karma would come back to bite me in the ass!
"So what are we waiting for? Lets go!" i raised my hand shyly "One problem - how are we gonna get past the door? They've been listening in to this whole conversation in hopes of getting in here to reach me" the Prince pulled out his sword and held up a hatch in the floor "Bakugo said he'd told you about the escape hatches?" I stood staring down the hole
"I did but she never listens!" Bakugo screamed from outside the door before supposedly ramming his shoulder into the door with a loud bang. The plan was that the lords distracted the two dragons while I legged it in the direction in the dryads on foot before the four would join me more or less
I shared at look with the two princes before I drew in a breathe slipping down the hatch landing on hay bales and running for my life "Get back here!" I didn't dare look back as the sounds of wings flapping filled the air. Out of all the bad ideas we'd ever had, this was the one I was regretting - especially since I was on foot and the princes had gotten a cart to run along side me
It was nightfall when I started getting slower and hoped on the cart and hid under blanket. In what story do girls run from their lovers? I poked my nose out the side of the blanket and watched the road move away from me in a fast motion which lulled me to sleep after awhile, but that feeling of guilt never left me...
