Chapter 1: Preparation

The feeling was intoxicating, like the most potent wine. To have power over another gave him such an incredible feeling. Hyuga Neji basked in the feeling as he gazed down upon the beautiful man before him. Sweat soaked Uchiha Sasuke's raven locks as he knelt before the one whom he now called master. Oddly enough he felt so humbled and so blessed to have suffered at the hand of the man he adored above all others. This is how he felt ever since their first session. At first he had resisted until his lover had reminded him of his promise to submit. Sasuke had swallowed hard at the thought of his precious Neji leaving him forever. That very thought made him literally feel sick, causing him to cough as bile burned the back of his throat. Sasuke had to be bound for the first couple sessions, but after the third the Uchiha's spirit was broken and humbled before the magnificent Hyuga. Since that day three years prior when the two shared their first kiss, Sasuke adored the delicate looking bishonen, whose graceful movements and quiet mannerisms reminded him of a dove. But ever since he had become his submissive he was literally in awe of Neji. The Hyuga bent down in front of his panting lover to lift his chin with a finger and give him a delicate kiss.

"I think you're ready, my little raven, wouldn't you agree?"

"Hai, Neji-sama. I'm prepared to obey your every command," Sasuke whispered in almost breathless tones.

"Good. Now go get freshened up. I'm finally going to show you off to the others tonight for the first time. They'll finally get to see what you're truly capable of." Neji gently pulled Sasuke to his feet to pull him into a gentle embrace. "You are amazing, my love." Sasuke bowed his head with a slight blush then gave Neji a delicate kiss on the shoulder. As the Uchiha made his way to the shower Neji removed his sweaty clothing. He truly enjoyed their little love nest in another part of the Uchiha compound, which was still under renovation. Sasuke was taking care of one small section at a time and things were looking good so far.

The raven haired shinobi stood quietly in the shower as the steamy waters cascaded over his stiff muscles. His face didn't show it, but he was actually excited about this evening. He was grateful for Tsubaki-sama's advice for the two of them about getting along as master and submissive. He had never realized before how happy it would make him to hear his master give him praise and appreciation. Just about all his life others had praised him for his skills as a shinobi, except for his brother, Itachi. Neji was the first to realize that he had other skills to be proud of, and his lover was the only one to give him sincere praise not because of envy , fear, or plain respect but out of love. The tiniest smile graced Sasuke's lips as he felt delicate fingers tracing over the small welts across his back, which were courtesy of his lovers riding crop. Sasuke cherished every delicious stinging blow he suffered for his master. He didn't mind the scars, for he knew they would heal. Besides he had suffered much worse wounds before from battle. These little scratches were nothing. He trembled with pleasure as petal soft lips pressed against his sore back. He closed his eyes and rolled his head back until it rested on Neji's shoulder. Neji pressed his body against his lover as he trailed his tongue along his exposed neck. He then reached around to take hold of the raven haired bishi's rigid cock to gently stroke it. Sasuke instinctively began to grind his hips against Neji's calloused hand as their lips met under the steamy waters. Neji grabbed his lover by the shoulders to turn him until they faced each other. Their kissing became more passionate as their slick cocks slid against each other. It wasn't long before the delightful friction brought them both to an intense release. Sasuke quickly bent down to lick up any semen from Neji's abs before it was all washed away by the shower waters. Neji then turned the faucet off and held Sasuke in his arms as he ran his tongue over his lover's dripping wet jaw line.

"Neji-sama..."

"What is it, love?" the Hyuga muttered as he continued to nibble on Sasuke's neck.

"I think we should head back to the main house to check up on Ino-chan."

"Is that so?" Neji chuckled as the other young man regarded him with a worried glance. "No need to look so concerned, love. I don't mind if you check up on your wife." Sasuke's look of worry quickly became one of relief as he got out of the shower to dry off and get dressed.

Back at the main house Ino was just finishing up cleaning the living room. She smiled brightly when she saw her husband and their roommate come through the door. She greeted her spouse with a hug and kiss as he rubbed a hand over her swollen belly. Neji simply gave Ino a respectful nod and headed for the kitchen to get him some breakfast.

"So, how was your training session, husband?" Ino asked as he tenderly kissed her forehead.

"It went quite well," came Sasuke's reply as a tiny smile crossed his lips. Ino had no idea what her husband's training truly consisted of. Normal taijutsu and ninjutsu sparring sessions came to her mind. She couldn't even begin to imagine the erotic, mind blowing experiences he had been having with Neji. Sasuke decided from the beginning she was better of not knowing. In this case her ignorance really was her bliss.

"Sasuke-kun, I missed you." He chuckled softly at his wife's sweet sentiment.

"I was only gone for a few hours, Ino-chan."

"Those few hours seemed like forever," she sighed as she hugged him close to breathe in the scent of his freshly showered body. Sasuke never said so out loud but he really did enjoy her displays of affection, though not for the same reasons as he enjoyed Neji. She had a certain charm about her that warmed his heart. He had to admit that she did make good company and provided enjoyable conversation. At the same time Ino honored her husband for who he was. He was the sole member of the nearly extinct Uchiha clan until the birth of their first child. He was strong and stern most of the time, so she did appreciate any affection he expressed towards her. She was thrilled that he had expressed an interest in joining her during her doctor's visit for a sonogram.

While Sasuke was out of the house with his spouse Neji prepared a sealing scroll containing several instruments of torture for his session with Sasuke that evening in Tsubaki's dungeon. Ino was under the impression that the two of them would be preparing for a mission. In a way Neji did see it that way. His goal was to go before the other masters in Tsubaki's secret circle and officially mark the Uchiha as his. He smiled to himself as he imagined the dark delights he and his lover would enjoy on this very special night.

Next chapter: The Dove and the Raven are officially initiated into Tsubaki-sama's circle.
