Primal FemSasuke x Naruto

Chapter 9

Chapter 9

Suki sighs and returns Naruto's embrace for a few minutes. It was tempting to just forget all of it. Itachi was clearly sick. Her brother could easily die of his illness without her lifting a finger.

She could just stay with her Mate and let nature take its course. He was likely going to die a painful death. Did it really matter if she killed him or if a disease finally delivered justice?

"She's going to want to go after Danzo. There's no telling where Itachi and Kisame went. She knows where Danzo went though." Kurama tells him.

"Should we let her? Better Danzo than Itachi, right?" Naruto asks.

Danzo was old. He was also a member of the Leaf Village. He wasn't their enemy, was he? At the very least, he doubted that Danzo was as formidable as Itachi was on the battlefield. Maybe getting answers out of him was the safer choice.

"I don't like waiting, but it's the smarter option. An hour or so. We need him to think that we didn't notice him. That will get him to lower his guard." Suki whispers as rests her head on his shoulder.

"Don't underestimate that human. He may be old, but Danzo is still a formidable warrior in his own right. That and he knows about every single skeleton in this village's closet. There are things about the Leaf that neither of you know. Things that people shouldn't know." Kurama warns him.

Naruto blinks at this response. He'd never heard Kyuubi talk that way before. Whatever Danzo knew, it was bad. Bad enough that even the Nine Tailed Fox wasn't particularly enthusiastic about discussing the matter.

"Do you really think that he knows something?" Naruto asks.

"I know that he knows something. The odds that he just happened upon the forest during that confrontation are low. If you want to go home or wait here, you can. I'm going to get some answers though." Suki says.

"Suki, I'm going with you. I'm not going to let you face this alone. I don't really know what this is yet, but you're my wife. That means something!" He says.

Suki smiles. She knew that it had probably been a foolish idea to become his Mate before Itachi was dead, but this was part of the reason. Naruto cared and he never gave up on her.

"I'll take you with me. If I don't, you'll follow me anyway." Suki says slyly.

"That's right!" Naruto says proudly and the youngest Uchiha shakes her head in amusement.

"This has to be the strangest Honeymoon ever." She says with a sigh.

Naruto blinks. She was right. They were technically on their Honeymoon. That was okay though. They were already married and hadn't even been on their first date. Their relationship was clearly never going to be a normal one.

"Yeah. Well since when have either of us ever worried about being normal? Besides, it wasn't that bad. I found out something very important." He says with a mischievous grin.

"And what did you find out?" Suki asks curiously.

"That you really like to cuddle." Naruto replies proudly and Suki just rolls her eyes.
