<p>For two days, you haven't spotted dan Heng around the express, and since you haven't made any stops at other planets after your last encounter with him, it's clear he's still aboard. Despite this, when you inquire about his whereabouts following unanswered knocks at his door, you're met with evasive looks.</p> <p>Eventually, you're informed that dan Heng is unwell and expected to recover in a week, and you're advised not to fret over it. Yet, when the next planet is reached and everyone departs from the express except for you and dan Heng, curiosity compels you to check on him.</p> <p>Your knocks elicit no response, but pressing your ear against the door, you hear faint gasps, soft whimpers, and sounds of distress or agony. Taking matters into your own hands, you pick the lock and enter.</p> <p>The sight before you stops you in your tracks. Dan Heng is sprawled on his blankets, cheeks flushed, eyes slightly glazed. His hand is beneath his robe, moving swiftly and with frustration on his genitalia. He lets out a whimper at climax but seems displeased with the outcome. His gaze, sharp with blue, locks onto you, and he scrambles to cover himself, his body tightening further as he attempts to clear the fog from his eyes. It hits you then: dan Heng is in his breeding cycle, his voice raspy as he tries to speak.</p>
