Naruto: The Prince of Lust Chapter 292

TEMARI

After Temari assured him that nine spouses or concubines would allow him and future Uzumakis to marry and produce more heirs and clan mbers without the fear of genetic deformities, Naruto still seed confused by her proposition. Whether it's due to her unexpectedly quick turn-around on polyamory or the possibility he sensed her disapproval of what she simply labels as consensual infidelity, she couldn't say, however, her research is sound and she offered it to show him as well her andnt to their Omiai.

Naruto instead responded with, "fine, but I want to et Gaara."

To get him back on board, she acquiesced, "fine." Turning around she called, "follow ."

Surprised, he asked, "wait, really? Now?"

Turning to him, she asked, "you have sowhere to be?"

"Actually, yeah," Naruto honestly admitted. Her mind imdiately makes plans for later in the day when he responds, "but I can start it with clones and catch up later. Let's go."

After making a clone, Temari takes him straight to their suite at one of Konoha's fanciest hotels, all the while he explains how a three or four-mber polycule was more his train of thought. Naruto is amazed by the opulence of the rooms as Temari explained nine mbers is simply the lowest number necessary to avoid deformities or weaknesses should he want his clan's blood to remain as pure as possible. As she led him to Gaara's room, he replied how little sothing like that mattered to him. Without preamble, she knocks sharply on the heavy door.

A slow hissing, like running sand, could be heard behind the door and instantly Temari reacted with agitated alertness. The door opened slowly and with the darkness of the room behind him contrasting with his pale skin, blood-red hair, and light-green eyes rimd by dark sleepless lines, he appeared as if out of a nightmare. With his short-sleeved black body-suit and white sash across his chest, Gaara was silent as he stared at them.

With trendous effort, Temari clears her throat and introduced the boys. "Gaara, this is Uzumaki Naruto, my fiancé-"

Surprised, Naruto shook his head as he repeated, "f-f-f-fiancé?"

Temari hastened to get this over with and finished, "Naruto, my little brother Gaara."

"Yo," he rrily called out, surprising Temari to hold her breath. When Naruto extended his fist for a bump, she was sure Gaara would take that as a sign of aggression and engage them, but he simply stared at the fist as Naruto finished, "how's it going?"

Turning his icy green eyes on Naruto, Gaara only asked, "do you feel it?"

Tilting his blond head, Naruto curiously asked, "feel what?"

Nearly snarling, he answered, "love."

"Oh," Naruto humd before answering, "yeah, I do."

Internally, Temari was shocked to hear that. Externally she was still holding her breath. Her technically-accurate-fiancé just claid to love her in front of her brother and sohow it suddenly felt more substantial. The hallway seems hotter to her and she pondered whether that made her happy or sad to hear.

"The best way to destroy a person is to fill them with love, then take it away," Gaara professed. With wide, hungry eyes, her homicidal little brother declared, "next we et, I'm going to relish mixing your still warm blood with the endless sand; proving my existence to the world."

Before Naruto could say anymore, Gaara slamd the door behind on them. Her blond target tried to yell through the door but Temari convinced him to save it for another day. She then took him to her suite on the opposite side of the top level. The one question Temari wanted to ask Naruto in the privacy of her suite was at what point did he fall in love with her when it suddenly dawned on her.

She claps her hand over her forehead for her lapse in logic when she voiced, "of course... you ant your love for this other woman, didn't you?"

Montarily distracted by the gold and navy blue layout, tall curtained windows, and opulent furnishing of the beautiful room, Naruto humd, "huh?" Then realized, "oh, yeah. I have a lot of important people in my life, but yeah, I love her."

Feeling rejected, the daughter of the Kazekage hotly contested, "and sohow, you actually believe you could love too? Equally?"

"It's not like it's a competition," Naruto assured her. "If you t her... well, it's like being introduced to another person you could love just as much as you could love . The three of us would just love each other and we could build sothing together, but, it's super important to be honest with each other. If that's sothing you think you can do, great, but if not, we can still be best of friends-"

"Then let's be honest," Temari interrupted, eager to stop feeling rejected as a woman or a failure as a kunoichi. With stern determination, Temari brings it down to reality, callously citing, "before sister-wives, marriages, engagents, or even girlfriends; before any of that very challenging concept, I'm- ...I'm scared you're going to die. How's that for honesty? I'm truly terrified that my little brother is going to kill you."

Almost with a bored face, Naruto assured her, "he's not going to kill ."

"You don't know that," she heatedly argues, asking with aggravation, "how many people have you killed?"

"Uh, maybe two or three, but I wasn't trying to kill them-"

It wasn't a stretch of the imagination for Temari to guess, "you were trying to incapacitate them, right? I can easily imagine those two or three shinobi you killed likely died from their injuries and not because you maliciously ripped them apart to bathe in their blood?"

"...Well, yeah," a horrified Naruto eventually agreed.

"Gaara has killed scores of n and he doesn't do it to incapacitate." She tries desperately to make him realize, "he butchers them for fun. As much as we like to predict what might happen, no one knows the future! You or I could die any day, but between the two of us, you're the one that has to face my brother, which ans the chances that's it's you is exponentially higher." In that mont, it's strangely sinking in. What was ordered of her was suddenly feeling like an outco she doesn't want. "...we're two weeks away from the exam and I'm only now realizing he could very well kill you-"

"Hey," he called, standing closer to her, filling her vision with his whiskered face. "He's not going to kill ," he reiterated, but the look on her face read she didn't believe him. "Let's be honest, then. I like you Temari, you're wicked smart and beautiful and fun and I like your family too. Even the one that wears makeup-"

"You know his na," Temari accused with a dry grin.

Chuckling, Naruto smiled as he nodded before continuing, "I know you think I'm crazy for trying to reach out to Gaara but I know we're alike. Hell, I could've been just like him... which also ans he could be like ... if he had soone like I did. I just have to show him that and he won't be that crazy murderer you're afraid of. He could be soone great. Soone amazing. Maybe your Kazekage one day."
