Syanna gave an eye roll and a quiet groan when he not only refused to let her go, but continued to rub and scratch at her back while playing with her fur. Her tail swished and beat erratically against the ground, her paws flexing and relaxing over pawfuls of his fur. She rested her head against his chest, feeling his warmth and thick, coarse fur mixing with hers. His scent filled her nose, woody and masculine, and the longer he held her, the more frayed she felt her resolve becoming.

She was so relaxed at this point, every muscle in her body feeling like jello, but the molten heat in her belly aching with a primal need kept her awake and aware of where she was. She was in the arms of a large, strong male that had everything her body craved and everything she needed in that moment. It was literally a battle between her mind and her body, and both were deadlocked right now. Ezra, however, seemed to be fighting for the side her heat was on. How the hell was he still so calm and not losing his godsdamned mind with all the pheromones she was releasing into the air?

She gave a more vocal groan of frustration when Ezra mentioned being in no hurry to get back, then continued doing what he was doing. Gods, did he had any idea how much he was affecting her?! Was he doing this on purpose? "Eeezraaaa..." she grumbled in groaned, groggy annoyance, her body feeling hot all over, and it took a great deal of mental resolve to keep herself still and not squirm or writhe or grind herself against him.

She let out a soft sigh of delight when he kissed her forehead, biting her lip again to resist the mental images of grabbing his face and sliding her tongue into his mouth. Too much, Syanna... That's too much...! They'd only just started crossing the line from friends into something more, she didn't need to be thinking about screwing his brains out right now! All she could hope was that he let her go before her heat pushed either of them past the point where they couldn't control themselves.

Ezra smirked at the drawn out grumble of his name, but she didn't try to pull away when he refused to stop rubbing and tracing her back with his paws. In fact, she leaned even more into him with her head on his chest. He loved the way she felt leaned into him like this with her slender form under his rough paw pads, her paws flexing across his skin, her scent filling his nose... Right. The scent from her heat. He kept forgetting, getting so lost in her that all he could focus on was how much he enjoyed being with her like this and how much he liked getting to hold her and touch her like this. Even the little sigh she made when he kissed the top of her head made his heart skip. Without really considering what he was doing, he did finally stop rubbing her back in favor of wrapping his forelegs around her and pulling her tight against him, one around her sides and the other supporting her back. He left a trail of more kisses across the top of her head and around her ears, feeling his heart stutter and skip while that new desire crept up from his gut, chasing away his logic as easy as a leaf on a breeze.

He didn't really notice how much it was affecting him as well until he started to feel breathless, realizing then how this heat had spread across his skin and just how firmly he was holding her. All that warmth and electricity that had been dancing across his skin wherever they touched had begun to settle between his thighs, affecting him in ways that he had never felt and his face flushed when he realized it, making him stop the trail of kisses he was leaving across her soft fur. "I... I should stop, shouldn't I...?" he asked softly against her ear, forcing himself to loosen his embrace and lift his head away from hers. He most certainly didn't want to stop, but he knew he should. He didn't want to over step any boundaries, he didn't want to push things too far, and he didn't want to risk any of the things his father warned him about.

Ezra was playing a very dangerous game with Syanna right now, keeping her teetering right on the edge of total hormonal madness. Did he know how good his paws felt on her body, how badly her urges were screaming at her to take advantage of this innocent dopey wolf? And still he fucking wouldn't let go of her! She was a ticking time bomb and he was gleefully playing with the timer. Finally—finally!—she felt Ezra's paws stop roaming over her back, giving her a little sigh of relief, though it was short lived as he immediately switched to wrapping a paw around her sides and clinging tight to her while he supported her back, holding her in the perfect position to move and manipulate her body to his will. Syanna's heart raced, her tail swishing and flagging anxiously. Was this it? Was this the moment she finally overwhelmed him? All he would have to do was drop that foreleg to her waist and he could do whatever he wanted with her. The thought made her tremble and tingle all over...

He froze like that, holding her as she clung to him, her paws clutching fistfuls of his chest fur while she waited in suspense. She could hear and feel his ragged breath against her ear while she tried to mentally prepare for what was coming next. There was no way she could get out of his grasp now no matter how hard she tried. Syanna swallowed hard and took a few quick, shallow breaths—but nothing happened. There was a beat of silence to allow confusion to set in, but no further movement from the dire wolf she was wound around. Then Ezra spoke, confirming that he should stop. Her body screamed no, wanting to cling to him, rub herself all over him and grind her hips to his until he gave her what her body craved and extinguished her heat! But her mind seized the opportunity to snap back into control and force her jittery hormones back where they belonged.

"Yeah... Yeah, you probably should..." she remarked, trying to keep her voice steady and not break her words between breathless gasps, but it was in vain. She peeled herself away from him as his grip loosened, blinking up into those baby blue eyes while her brain swam with vivid images of what he could do to her if he didn't stop. She offered him an awkward, embarrassed smile, taking a few deep breaths to try and calm herself down. "Um, you should... probably let me go so I can keep working." She tapped a paw against his broad chest, waiting for him to release her so she could put some space between them and catch her breath without getting high off his scent. Her self-control was frayed at best right now and threatening to crumble entirely. She needed him to let go of her now.
