If Alsa is hissing and not allowing the males to breed she may not truly be in heat. I’m guessing this is her first heat cycle - she could also be a bit immature at this point and it might be better to wait until the next cycle. If she did mate once but then started hissing at the next make it’s also possible that she’s pregnant now depending on the timing between.
