Collared (Dom!UchihaItachi x Sub!Malereader)

Part 10

Your heart is beating loudly in your chest. In front of you are a handful of men with very dominant auras. They are sitting on chairs in front of you. You grip Itachi's hand even tighter. Your palms are sweaty as you do so. Itachi squeezes your hand tightly to reassure you.

You look up to see the men observing you and sizing you up. ''I'm here today to introduce my mate and the newest addition to our clan. This is (y/n).'' The elders are listening intently to what Itachi is saying. ''Are you telling us you are mated to that abomination!?'' A small bald man stands up and points at you. ''We know exactly who he is. It's bad enough your brother mated a freak and now you intend to do the same!? How much shame are you willing to bring upon our clan!?''

The words he says pierce your heart. You look down to hide the tears welling up in your eyes. Suddenly you sense a dominating aura. This aura radiates anger. No not just anger. Fury. You look up to see where it comes from. It's Itachi. His eyes are red and show pure fury. ''You dare insult my mate in front of me! You will regret your words.'' His words are chilling and strike fear in every person there. Including you. You know he would never hurt you but it's your submissive nature to fear an angered dominant.

Your ears are pinned down on your head and your tails in between your legs. You unconsciously release a whimper. This gains you the attention of Itachi. Itachi notices your discomfort and calms down. He pulls you close to him and hugs you to his chest. ''I'm sorry love. I didn't mean to scare you. Don't listen to that bad man you are perfect.'' He coos at you and talks softly. He rubs your back with one hand while the other is on your head rubbing your ears. This continues until you calm down.

Itachi refuses to release you and keeps holding you close. ''Forgive us Itachi-sama for frightening your mate. The words of a fool are just that, the words of a fool.'' The elder turns towards you and smiles gently at you ''My name is Kenzo. Please don't listen to the words of that fool Taro. I gladly welcome you to the clan. It's a pleasure to meet you.''

'This must be the elder Itachi talked about before coming here. The one that isn't as strict as the others and is gentle. He is also the one that supported Sasuke and Naruto's mating from the start.' You smile at him to show him your gratitude. ''You managed to snag a good one Itachi. Can't wait to see your pups running around soon.''

You flush red at his statement while Itachi has a proud look on his face. ''I can't wait for that myself elder. With all our 'activities' it won't be long.'' You hit Itachi on his arm while you are as red as a tomato ''I-Itachi!'' Itachi just smiles at you and pecks your forehead. You immediately hide your face in his chest.

'Oh god why does he talk about that! I'm so embarrassed.' Itachi and Kenzo both chuckle at your behavior. Kenzo turns to the other elders. ''As you can see (y/n) is a perfect mate for Itachi-sama. They are true mates and they will not be separated. We will welcome (y/n) with open arms. Aren't we better than the rest of the villagers after all. Show them we are better by accepting the one they treated as an outcast. Show them we are the better person!'' The other elders, except Taro, agree with Kenzo.

Kenzo turns back to you ''on behalf of the council we welcome you to the clan (y/n). You are now known as (y/n) Uchiha the mate of our heir.'' The elders all congratulate you. Itachi hugs you close and whispers in your ear ''I told you everything would work out. Let's celebrate later shall we. You heard what Kenzo said.'' You can feel him smirk against your ear. Your entire face flushes red and you hide your face in Itachi's chest again. Eliciting a chuckle from Itachi. ''Baka Itachi.'' It came out as a murmur but Itachi could hear you clearly.

The two of you finally leave, not noticing the angry gaze on your back.
