"Not-- not ever."
Clarissa repeated his words out loud, voice quiet as the meaning sunk in. Maybe not ever.
It hadn't been high on their priority list, talking about the possibility of having children one day. It was far to early to be discussing the prospect, and Clarissa wasn't ready for a pup, their mutual decision to stay apart during this heat proof of that. However... maybe not ever? She may not want a child of her own right that second, but she had always envisioned herself being a mother some day. The idea that her mate wanted a different life to that sent a sharp stab of pain through her chest.
Her eyes raised to look at him as she tried to process all of that through the heat and the fogginess of her condition, heart pounding in what she soon realised to be fear. Would he leave her for someone else who also didn't want children if they finally discussed the matter and realised they wanted different things? The thought sent another wave of hurt through her body, causing her to catch her breath.
It wasn't the right time to focus on such a detail, yet it was something she couldn't ignore. Especially while going through something that seemed to be a part of werewolf nature to encourage the act that created children.
She barely heard anything else that he said after that, her grip on his arm going limp as he pulled away. Her head silently rolled from side to side before she pressed her forehead against the side of the window frame, releasing a long and trembling breath. Clarissa retracted her arm, her hand forming a fist to press against the edge of the windowsill just in time for her whole body to tense at another wave of the heat.
"Just-- just go to bed, Tate. I don't... I don't wanna be thinkin' you're tired and distracted out there. I'm already goin' t'be worried sick." She answered through gritted teeth, trying to keep her movements to a minimum for the moment, "Go get some sleep. I'mma-- I'mma be fine."
