Parallels is grabbing your DVD and piping it to the virtualised machine. Go to Devices->CD/DVD ROM 1->Disconnect to return the DVD to your OS X desktop. You can connect the DVD to your virtual machine again later using the same menu.
If you don't like the default behaviour of grabbing DVDs as they are inserted, use Parallels to open your virtual machine but don't start it. Then go to Edit->Virtual Machine..., click on CD/DVD-ROM 1, and untick "connect at startup".
