Sniv was relieved when (Y/n's) period finally ended and life returned to normal; he disliked returning to his duties, but he figured it had to do with him going a little soft. Nevertheless, he returned to his duties and acted as though he was his same self and there was nothing different going on in his life. Throk, Haxus, C.G. and Prorok teased him for going soft and wanting to spend more time with (Y/n) which made him scoff and deny everything they were hinting at. He was one of Zarkon's top commanders and he had to act like it, otherwise he might get banished and (Y/n) would get killed. Sniv questioned Zarkon's motives even more as the days passed, wondering if he was doing the right thing in his life; the war had been going on for more than ten thousand years and he was starting to see no point of it continuing.

A normal life was sounding better to him every passing day; he would be happy if he could find a nice place on a planet to live, but still have his cruiser so that he could travel across different galaxies and visit different planets with (Y/n). Speaking of his pet, one day about a movement after her period ended he noticed a change in her pheromones. It was subtle at first and it was having an effect on him; she was entering her fertile week and Sniv found himself craving to keep her as his mate and breed her fertile womb until she was carrying his kittens. His own natural instincts were shocking to him and he often berated himself for thinking about such things. When (Y/n's) fertile window began Sniv had to carefully get out of bed early every morning in order to take care of his recently daily morning wood before she woke up, always having breakfast ready by the time she was awake so that she wouldn't suspect anything.

When Sniv started acting strange (Y/n) was puzzled by his behavior; not only was he waking up earlier than usual to make breakfast, but he was also making himself look nicer than he normally did and he piled more fluffy blankets on his bed until it resembled a nest. She definitely noticed the new cologne he used every morning, the one that made his natural musk more potent as though he was trying to seem more attractive to her. (Y/n) didn't think her fertile window would affect her master in any way; she didn't even know she was fertile when his strange behavior started. On the day of her ovulation Sniv was practically shaking while he was around her and she didn't understand why, little did she know that he was losing his self control around her. While he was gone for the day she decided to get on the brand new datapad he gifted her with, reading a few things on Wattpad.

"I'm home." Sniv announced when the front door slid open and he walked in, a grin on his face when he saw (Y/n) sitting on the couch; with his habsuite smelling like her fertile pheromones he knew that he was going to have a hard time keeping his composure.

"How was your day?" (Y/n) queried with interest, putting her datapad on the coffee table before sitting on her knees and leaning on the arm of the couch.

"It was eventful." Sniv answered as casually as possible while he took his boots off; the front door closed on its own, so all he had to do was lock it.

(Y/n) didn't miss the slight desperation in Sniv's voice and wondered if he had something on his mind or if something was going on in his life, she didn't know it was her fertility that was making him act so strange. She wasn't exactly aware of how keen of a sense of smell galra had, so naturally she didn't know what was going on. Sniv went straight to the kitchen to make dinner; he decided on food goo, only he would make it taste like (Y/n's) favorite food after she told him what it was and he updated his flavor selection on his food goo machine. He hoped to someday eat real Earth food and not just flavored goo, but for the time being the food goo would have to suffice. When dinner was ready (Y/n) joined Sniv at the table, her eyes widening when she got a whiff of it and realized it smelled exactly like her favorite food; it even tasted like it, too.

"This tastes like (F/f)." (Y/n) said after she ate a big spoonful of the purple goo, surprised at how good it tasted despite being artificially flavored.

"That's because it is; only the best for you, gorgeous." Sniv responded flirtatiously, sending a wink in her direction while grinning sexily.

"Thank you; I haven't tasted (F/f) in so long." (Y/n) thanked him graciously, beaming a smile at him while feeling incredibly flustered.

Sniv went back to eating when (Y/n) did, his nostrils flaring when she became flustered and the scent of her pheromones spiked; it was getting harder for him to not pop a boner. His balls tingled as slickness began to bubble up at the opening of his sheath, the tip of his cock just barely poking out of the entrance. He focused on eating his food goo, enjoying how the flavor of (F/f) tasted and decided that if he ever got the chance he would try various real Earth dishes in the future. It wasn't that he meant to ignore (Y/n), but for the sake of his sanity and self control he had to. (Y/n) wanted to know why Sniv was acting the way he was and she was determined to find out why, one way or another.

"Is something on your mind?" (Y/n) queried after a while, unable to stop herself from asking the first question that had been floating around in her mind.

"No, nothing's on my mind." Sniv lied as best as he could, glancing at her but not making eye contact; his body felt hot and sensitive as he bit his bottom lip, a blush dusting his cheeks.

"Then why are you blushing?" (Y/n) questioned with pure curiosity when one particular thought crossed her mind before she brushed it aside, feeling turned on at the thought of him being aroused.

"It's nothing, really." Sniv tried to assure her to the best of his ability, pinning his ears back a little before once again turning his attention back to his food.

(Y/n) shrugged and went back to eating instead of questioning him further; he was clearly horny but she didn't know that she was causing and making his situation worse, even though she couldn't control the pheromones she didn't know she was letting off. She kind of liked the idea of Sniv being horny and it turned her on a little more than she already was, the thoughts of what he had going on 'down there' filling her mind. Sniv smelled her arousal and his blush darkened when he felt his-
