Hey, it feels good to be back in the game. And since this is my most popular fic so far, I am going to start off with this one. I do advise everyone to read through everything again because I have been making some changes. And for those who don't recognize me, then nice to meet you and I hope you enjoy the fic.

And remember, reviews motivates because all of your opinions matter. Criticism is appreciated too.

Disclaimer: This goes for the entire fic…I don't own Naruto or any of the characters. I own this plot and that is all. Nothing will change pertaining to this status.

He didn't know what was happening, but right now, his body was on fire. He felt like someone had turned up the heat on him and were still turning the dial, just to torture him. This sensation was new, too new. And to make matters worse, he had the biggest boner that he had ever had in his life. Sex was the last thing that most people thought about when they were sick, but right now, it was the only thing on his mind.

He needed it. Now! So far, he had always been able to control his more primitive instincts, but in this moment, that control was nonexistent and his need was real, very real!

"What are we going to do about him?"

"I'm not sure. I didn't expect this to happen so soon."

Kiba could hear the voices behind his bedroom door clearly, as if they were in the room. He wasn't sure why, but all of his senses had heightened beyond what they usually were. His mom, Tsume, and sister, Hana, were on the other side of that door. His companion Akamaru was also with them. Everyone's scent reeked of worry. They were all worried about him, he knew, but why was the question.

"I didn't expect this either. It's uncommon." Hana said.

"Yes, but Kiba is strong for his age. This heat may be a way of letting us know that he is ready to take over the tribe as alpha." Tsume said, more to herself than answering her daughter. She knew that her son would be a good leader, but was he really ready to take on all of the responsibility?

Kiba couldn't believe what he had just heard. Could his mom have been serious? He knew that all Inuzuka males went into heat, but that wasn't until after their 21st birthday. Kiba still had four more months to go, and there wasn't a guarantee that he would go into heat directly afterwards. Some males went months and years before they had their first heat.

Kiba groaned and rolled over in his bed, clutching onto one of his pillows and sinking his fangs into it. It was all he could do to keep himself from bursting out of his room and taking the next female he came across, whether she was ready or not.

He could get through this. He would get through this. Kiba had worked too hard to gain the reputation he had to let it all go to waste, all because of a heat that got him thrown in jail with rape charges. He would just stay in his room and bear with it.

"Mom, I think that you should let me give him a sedative. It might help calm him down." Hana offered.

The scent of Kiba's heat was so string, that she was sure everyone on the Inuzuka compound could smell it. And an Inuzuka male, especially the next in line alpha, in heat was a prize sought by every female. She had already had to fight off several females that had come to the door offering their 'services' to her brother. She'd be damned if she let just any female get near her younger bro in a time like this. The sedative would hopefully put him to sleep and calm him down.

Tsume shook her head and cast a glance at the front of Kiba's bedroom door. "If you went in there, nothing good would happen. This heat is too strong."

"I've administered sedatives to plenty of males in heat. What do you mean?"

Tsume explained. "This isn't just a regular heat that could be solved with a simple rut with any female. It's a mating heat. Any female that Kiba touches in this heat, he will mark and mate.

Hana gasped. "How? It's far too early for…"

Their conversation was cut off by the sound of breaking glass coming from the inside of Kiba's room. Both females, not even needing to guess what was happening, got up and headed for the front door to the house. Akamaru, who had been sitting at Hana's feet the whole time, followed them.

Kiba didn't know how much more of this he could take. It was bearing down on him, eating away at his insides. He needed to get out of this room. He needed fresh air. Now! Kiba sat up in his bed and looked towards the window. He could see the moon in the sky. He had been held up in here for hours.

Jumping from his bed, he made his way over to the window and tried to open it, but it had been sealed shut. Apparently, his mom had done her job well in making sure that he didn't get out of this room. Well, it was going to take a lot more than some glass to keep him in here. He smirked.

"Bye, I'll see you later"

Sakura walked out of the hospital and into the brisk night air. She sighed, finally happy to be out of that building and started off down the street, heading for her apartment complex. As much as she loved helping people, working at the hospital and dealing with shinobi who felt that they could handle anything without medical attention and kids who cried every time they saw a needle, could really take its toll on a person.

Walking through the streets of Konoha at night was one of the things that Sakura found most relaxing about the place. Sure, didn't mind interacting with her fellow villagers, but to have the village to yourself and just be able to breathe without someone in your face was more than welcomed.

Sakura turned a corner and saw her apartment building come into view. She was lucky enough to have been able to find a place so close to where she worked. It was a good building, reserved for the more 'wealthier' villagers, but since she was the hokage's student and head medic at the hospital, she was able to get the place for next to nothing.

From one of the rooftops, a pair of dark colored eyes watched as, the person they had selected as their prey, walked down the street. The owner of those eyes licked a pair of lips that pulled back into a smirk.

He watched, glued to his spot as the kunoichi made her way down the street, unaware of what she had just volunteered herself for by even being out tonight. Her hips, clad in a pair of scrubs, swayed and her breast, though not nearly as full as he preferred them, bounced with perkiness after each step she took. He could feel his boxers getting tighter, just watching the delectable tease from where he was.

Right now, he wasn't sure if it was him or the heat that gave him these thoughts and he didn't care. All he knew was that, before this night was over, she would be his.

Sakura walked up the steps on the front of her building to the second floor, where her apartment was located and stopped to dig in her pockets for the keys. She pulled out the key chain and unlocked the door, entering her apartment and closing it behind her.

"Home sweet home." she sighed and walked to the kitchen to grab a snack out of the refrigerator to eat. She had been working so hard today that she had missed lunch and didn't bother to stop for dinner. She saw that she still had some lunchmeat and bread, with not much else, and opted to make herself a sandwich. She did make a mental not to go shopping soon.

Eating her food, Sakura headed straight for her room. All she wanted to do now was take a nice hot shower and then crawl into her bed and sleep for the next two days that she had off. Finishing off her food, she grabbed a pair of underwear and a long shirt from her dresser and headed for the bathroom across the hall from her room.

A figure touched down on the balcony that leads to a pair of double doors that opened right into the female's room. It watched as the girl retrieved some clothes and left the room, probably going to shower, it figured. Once the girl was out of sight, and the sound of running water could be heard, it crept through the doors and into the girls room.

He stopped for a moment, becoming so overwhelmed with the scents around him. The entire room smelled like her. It was like springtime and strawberries, all mixed into one. He had become so caught up in this heavenly scent that he didn't noticed when the girl came back into the room until he heard a high pitched shriek.

"KIBA!"

When Sakura had stepped out of the shower, the last thing she expected to find in her room was Kiba Inuzuka. She looked towards her balcony doors and saw that they were slightly open. Damn. Naruto was right; she did need to start locking those things.

"Uh…what are you doing in my room?"

When Kiba looked at Sakura, she noticed the slightly wild look in his eyes. "A-Are you ok?" she stuttered, taking a few steps back in case she had to make a run for it.

Kiba watched the girl's movements closely. She was getting closer to the door, he noted, and smirked. Did she really think that she could run to get away from him now?

He gave a dark chuckle. "Sakura…You're mine!"

When the words 'mine' left Kiba's lips, Sakura felt her stomach drop. She eyed him and kept inching back towards the door. If she could just get out of her room, then she could run for help, assuming that Kiba didn't catch her first. Sakura shook her head of the thought. Right now, she needed to worry about getting away.

Kiba watched as his prey continued to move closer to the door, planning her escape. Though, her attempts wouldn't be successful, the beast in him loved the thrill of the chase and couldn't wait for her to run. Catching her and making her submit would just be that much more satisfying. He continued to watch her closely.

Go ahead Sakura, Make your move.

Sakura finally felt her hand touch the round knob that she had been searching for. With her eyes never leaving the Inuzuka in front of her, she eased the door open with a creek. He just continued to watch her. Once the door was opened wide enough, Sakura took a deep breath. It was now or never. She would only get one chance to run and try to get away and if she failed, then she didn't even want to think about what would happen to her then.

'Ok, here I go.'

Sakura made a dash out of her room and down the hall. She could see the front door and was already starting to reach her hand out for it, not even bothering to look back to see if Kiba had followed her at all. Her freedom was so close.

Kiba watched in wry amusement as the girl ran and let out a dark chuckle. No Inuzuka let their mates escape them so easily, and after tonight, that's exactly what she would be. Kiba gave the girl a few seconds before he followed her out the door with a speed that he knew she would never be able to match.

Sakura felt the tips of her fingers touch the knob to the door that held her freedom behind I before two arms wrapped around her midsection, stopping her in her tracks. She could not believe this was seriously happening. What the hell was wrong with Kiba? Why was he acting like this?

"KIBA!" Hana landed on the top another roof and took a second to sniff the surrounding area for any trail of her younger brother's scent. There was none. 'Damn', she cursed and looked around. From where she was, she couldn't see Kiba anywhere.

"I told you that this would not work."

Hana turned to see her mother, Tsume, and Akamaru land on the roof beside her. She knew that they had come to convince her to give up looking for her brother. But, she just couldn't. If Kiba was left out alone, especially in the condition he was in, he would probably rape the first girl he came across.

"We won't find him tonight." Tsume said. "He's in heat. His scent is being naturally masked because of it, and that only means one thing."

"What does it mean?" Hana asked, turning to her mother with a sharp expression. Akamaru whined. "Tell me, what does it mean?"

Tsume looked away, not liking the answer that she knew herself. "When in heat, especially a mating heat that Kiba is in, an Inuzuka's scent becomes stronger like what we felt back at home…"

"Then why can't we find it now?" Hana asked.

Tsume continued. "His scent spike to alert the females around him…Then, once he's chosen a female, the scent completely disappears."

Hana inhaled and her eyes widened. With Kiba's scent missing, that meant that he had already chosen his prey. But, there had to be something they could do…

"His scent disappears when he finds his mate, that means that there might still be a chance that we can stop him from doing something stupid right?" she asked.

Tsume shook her head. "You don't understand…It doesn't just disappear when he finds his mate, it disappears when he mates her."

At that, Hana felt her heart drop. That meant, that whoever her brother had found, he was already mating with her and most likely, against her will.

Bet you guys though you were gonna get a lemon. Well, not in the first chapter, but I still hope you all enjoyed and are willing to drop a review.
