    Summary

    “What is that smell?” He took several deep breaths and held the air in his lungs. The air smelled like jasmine and leather, and he couldn't remember encountering the scent while exploring the upstairs. Neji placed a hand over the scent gland on the right side of his neck. “Oh. It's you.” Sasuke winced when he realized he sounded disappointed. It was rude. And while he normally wouldn't have cared, he knew he had to live with Neji for an undetermined length of time. They couldn't afford to make one another unhappy.

    “The rainwater loosened one of my scent blockers enough that I had to remove it. I haven't had the chance to replace it.”

    “Don't bother.”

    “It hasn't been long. My scent is still strong. I don't want to bother you.”

    “Oh. That.” He shifted on his feet, unsure of how to handle discussing Neji's rut. They would have to discuss the uncomfortable subject at some point. They were both alphas, so there was a risk that they could trigger aggression if they were together during a rut. “It's,” he stopped, still struggling, “fine.”
