Chapter 11- Truth Will Set You Free
Sasuke ditched Sakura in the middle of the dance floor. He wanted to speak to his father about the forced marriage business. He will not take Karin the hoe as his bride. Sasuke had some standards; no matter how low. Karin didn't even rate on his standards meter which was pretty damn sad. He crossed the floor to meet at his father's table and slammed his fists against the table. Many of the guests were surprised by the loud bang and turned their curious heads towards the noise. Some people mostly realizing that it was a family quarrel; turned their heads away. They had enough drama at home; this party was their escape. Free booze, free food and women practically holding their legs opens. If the business men were given a choice to stay or go; Sasuke would never have an empty house ever again.
"Father I need to talk to you," stated Sasuke. He gave the older man the stare down. Direct full eye contact; it was threatening for those who were not use to the Uchiha family. The older son and the younger son had gotten the death glare from their father. He was a very powerful man. With powerful ways of persuasion; one was the famous Uchiha death glare.
"Not now Sasuke," replied Fugaku. He took a sip of brandy; his favorite drink. He smacked his lips together; enjoying the burning pleasure down his throat. Fugaku knew that a polite response would harass his son more. Like father like son. Fugaku smirked. Harassing his child was one the perks of being a parent.
He was miffed. Sasuke would not let that insult slide. It was considered rude to refuse to talk to the host of the party. "Father I would like to talk. Now," seethed Sasuke. He would hit the man if he wasn't his father. His fists on the table were shaking with anticipation. Just let his father treat him like a child again. Sasuke would send the man flying. Sasuke smiled. The many women at his father's table melted; Fugaku sighed. He had lost the battle. There was no point in him sticking around the table anymore.
Fugaku sighed. He made every movement seem like it was a pain in the ass for him and eventually stood up. "Okay brat. What do you want to talk about?" asked Fugaku.
The brat comment went in one ear and out the other. His father always called him brat. It was a pet name and sometimes a name of endearment or even a name of annoyance. "Not here."
Sasuke left the table and headed down the hallway that led the way towards his office. He thumped down the hallway; he would glace back to check to see if his father was actually cooperating. Surprisingly, his father was happily thumping right behind him. Sasuke wondered how much his father drank. His father wasn't a light weight but for him practically skipping and smiling down the hall. He must be feeling pretty damn good. Sasuke finally reached his office and flipped on the light.
The light exposed the room; then Sasuke sighed. Someone had trashed his office. Important paperwork and books were strewed on the floor. His desk was moved a good three inches out of place. Sasuke shuffled his way through the room. On closer inspection, Sasuke's desk was wet. The air had a certain twinge to it; it smelled like sex. A man who had sex often enough would recognize the stench of the human body. Every woman smells different and so does every man. Sasuke sighed again. Someone had sex in his office and it wasn't him. It wasn't fair. Sasuke just stood there. Then his father hops into the room. Literally.
Fugaku laughed. "Looks like my son isn't gay after all; I'm so proud of you brat." The older man was worried for longest time when Sasuke was a young lad. He had no interest in females or even socializing with other males. It was assumed that Sasuke was either asexual or his blooming time had yet to come; or so the doctor's had said.
Sasuke rolled his eyes. His father would assume that he would make a mess of his own office. "Father I didn't have sex in here." Yes, well. He has had great mind blowing oral sex in his office but there was no way he could trash everything. Sasuke was pretty sure that he had OCD when it came to his desk and his office.
"Bullshit. What about Karin?" asked Fugaku. He would like to see how his younger son would talk himself out of this one. Fugaku smiled; he knew he got him trapped like a little rat.
The younger Uchiha snorted and stated, "Guest bedroom."
Fugaku was stunned. His son didn't make Karin a descent woman in his own bedroom. He had hand raised a slut. Making them marry would be the perfect lesson and it would entertain him to no end. Making his children's lives miserable was twisted fun as a parent. It would be more pleasurable as he got older; he could blame it on being senile. Fugaku really didn't know what to say about it. Personally it was his son's choice about whom or where he sticks it to. He was in a weird situation; half proud and half ashamed. Fugaku didn't know what side to choose; so he kept quiet. The room was silent and Sasuke was getting impatient; he wanted to get back to Sakura. He wanted to play with his pet.
"Father I want to talk about the forced marriage," stated Sasuke.
"Are you still going on about that? I told you; you have one month of freedom before you get married. You better have as much fun as you can. Women across the globe will have their hearts broken," said Fugaku.
"Do you really think that something as small as marriage will stop me from banging other women father? Even if you force me to marry; you can't force me to monogamy," smirked Sasuke.
The older man was frustrated at his son's antics. "I'm announcing your engagement tonight; right here and now. What do you say to that son?" asked Fugaku. He started to walk out of the office and down the hall. Sasuke called after him, "That's fine but first, I have some business to attend to."
Sasuke personally didn't care but he cared enough to want to tell Sakura the truth. As the saying goes the truth will set you free. He strolled out of the office and flipped the light off at the same time. He wished he had his office keys on hand to lock it but no such luck. Sasuke will just send a maid in there later to clean up the place and sterilize it from head to toe. He walked down the hall and back into the party. There was no pink hair in sight. It was unnatural shade of hair; Sasuke would have thought he would find her by now. She would have stood out like a sore thumb. Instead, he found Shikamaru in the quiet area of the party. The sound still carried but not as bad. He still wasn't too pleased with the man's actions with his woman but he needed the man's help. He wasn't very urgent to find her but he wanted to find her before the shit hit the fans; he owned her that much.
"Hey Shikamaru have you seen Sakura?" asked Sasuke. Shikamaru was leaning on the window with his head tilled upwards. Sasuke looked outside with him to see what was so interesting; it was the clouds. In the dark sky; Shikamaru was watching gray clouds roll over the moon. Sasuke shook his head. He had an easily entertained friend; Sasuke thought he needed to get laid.
The lazy man turned his head towards his name. "What?"
The other man sighed. Why were they friends again? Sasuke had no clue. "Where's Sakura?"
"She was grumbling something about stupid man and fresh air. Why?" asked Shikamaru.
Then conversation came to a standstill. Shikamaru was enveloped in the silence and he finally turned his head and continued to look at the clouds again. The wheels in Sasuke's head were cranking. Fresh air? Then finally the light bulb clicked on. She was outside. Sasuke ran back from the quiet side of the party and walked onto balcony. It was purely quiet; all he could hear was the light rustling of the trees as the breeze blew by. Then he heard it. Something that sounded like flesh on flesh sound. Sasuke put it off as some horny partiers that couldn't wait to get home. He would have to have the maids scrub every inch of the balcony. He could not stand the thought of random people having sex everywhere in his house.
He shuttered. Sasuke rather have people pissed off at him from interrupting rather than have a sexually tainted home. There would be no peace for him if he had to smell other people's sex in the air. Sasuke was already sexually frustrated; he did not need any more temptations. Sasuke decided to break up the happy couple. He smirked. Sasuke would be the most hated man ever. He walked over towards the sound. Then he took in the sight. The clouds were in the perfect place to hide the woman's face but the clouds couldn't spare Sasuke from seeing another man's ass hanging out. He heard the woman mumble something and the man hit her. That was Sasuke's cue. Sasuke didn't like men hitting on woman. They were something you could fuck not beat. Men should get a punching bag or masturbate if they wanted to beat on something.
The woman screamed,
SASUKE!
The clouds parted. Revealing a half naked and beaten Sakura; she was bleeding from her lip. Sasuke could tell that the man was trying to push himself into her from the movement of his hips. Sasuke was irate. The woman he loved was getting touched by a man other than himself. He was going to kill him and his father's business partner was going to lose a son. Sasuke knew who the man was for he had quite a reputation for taking women unwillingly.
"Neji Hyuga. If you don't let my pet go; I will kill you," seethed Sasuke. If that man tried to shove himself into her body one more time; Sasuke was going to cut his dick off and shove it up his ass.
Neji laughed. "Sasuke Uchiha. Why are you interrupting me? You never used to care about sharing before. Besides I call first dibs. Do you what to know why?" Back in the old days Sasuke and Neji use to tag team woman. It would be slam, bam, and thank you madam. Until Karin the bitch came along.
Sasuke didn't have time for this. He just wanted Sakura out of that man's reach. "Why?" Maybe if he continued the conversation with Neji; maybe Neji wouldn't keep trying to rape his woman.
"She's so tight. I can't even get in there," complained Neji. "Which either means she's a hard bitch to turn on or she's a virgin. I vote for the later." Neji shoved his hips into again. Sakura cried out. He wasn't inside her yet but the force of his hips against hers hurt Sakura. She knew if he shoved at her entrance of her womanhood a couple more times. Her body would give in and he would take her right in front of Sasuke. She didn't want that. Sakura wiggled and earned herself another hit.
"Give me Sakura," stated Sasuke. The two men had a death glare contest going. Sakura was getting sore as fuck. The cobblestones were digging into her back. She was tired of all this shit. She was pissed off and tired. Not a good combination.
"Sakura? What a pretty name for a delicious woman," said Neji. Then he turned from the other man and slammed his lips on Sakura's. Sakura felt like she was choking on his tongue. She felt disgusted and did the only thing that she could.
She bit his tongue.
Hard.
Neji pulled back from the kiss screaming. He was pissed off and bleeding. The bitch bit him. He wanted revenge and fast. He slammed his hips upwards; trying to plunge himself into her body. Sasuke bolted over and tried prying the man off of her. Neji elbowed him in the face. The hit dazed Sasuke. Then colors of blackness were fighting his con . Neji had gotten him good. He didn't want to black out before Sakura was safe.
"Neji. Let. Her. Go," threatened Sasuke. Sakura looked the man she loved. In the shadow of the night; Sakura could swear that his eyes gleamed red.
"Not until I have her first Uchiha," growled Neji. Sakura felt his shoulders tense. It was the last chance before she would get tainted. Then the light bulb went off. Sakura mentally groaned. What the hell didn't she have this idea sooner?
"Hey Asshole! When I say no; I FUCKING MEAN IT!" shouted Sakura.
Then she head butted him.
Once, Twice, Three times. By the third head butt Sakura was dizzy but it did the job. Sakura felt his grip on her wrists loosen and she ripped her arms free from his grasp. She collapsed onto the cobblestone ground. Sakura was free. She adjusted herself back into her dress. That was an easy fix. Her face wasn't. She touched her face tenderly; she flinched. Oh yeah, her face was going to bruise in the morning. Sakura watched as Neji stumbled through the doors. She didn't care. Sakura looked around for Sasuke. He was difficult to spot since his attire but she found him.
She crawled towards Sasuke. He was bent over in half; letting his bangs touch the ground. As Sakura grew closer; she saw a puddle of blood dripping from him. Sakura was shaking. He was hurt because of her.
"Sasuke look at me," demanded Sakura. She wasn't asking him; she was telling him.
"No," stated Sasuke. He didn't want to look upon her face; her beautiful damaged face. Sasuke failed her when she needed him the most. Another man almost had the woman he loved. How could he face her as a man? He was supposed to be her protector. Sakura growled. She was getting frustrated with this man.
"Listen to me Sasuke," whispered Sakura. "Let me look at your face."
Slowly Sasuke glanced up. Dark eyes met green. Sakura lifted her hand to touch his face. He had a busted lip and a bloody nose. Neji had hit him good. Sakura grabbed her dress and started to wipe the blood off his face. Nothing was said between them. The atmosphere was now awkward with all the emotions that they feel.
"Sasuke-sama! Is everything alright?" asked Hinata. Hinata ran over to them. She looked at Sasuke; then she looked at Sakura. "Oh my god, Sakura-san what happened? Did Neji-sama do this?
"How do you know what happened Hinata?" asked Sasuke. He was hoping that man didn't brag about anything.
"I saw Neji-sama stumble into the party with blood dripping from him. What happened?" asked Hinata.
"Neji almost got too carried away with Sakura," explained Sasuke. He really didn't want Hinata to know just how carried away the man had gotten.
Sakura sighed. She didn't want Hinata to worry. "Has my father made the announcement yet?" asked Sasuke. He hoped to god that he didn't. Sakura didn't need to know yet. He wanted to tell her straight.
"The announcement that you're engaged to Karin-san?" asked Hinata.
Sasuke flinched. His father must have made the announcement as this whole ordeal was going down. He looked at Sakura.
She was slapped in the face. He was engaged. He was getting married. The man she wanted. Was getting married; god hated her. "Is it true?" whispered Sakura. She didn't want to cry around him. She wouldn't cry around him.
There was no sense in lying to her, "Yes," replied Sasuke.
Her heart snapped in two. How the hell does this shit work? She found love and it was going away. Ino always said it was better to love and have lost rather than never experiencing it. Ino's advice could suck it. Sakura wanted her heart back intact.
"Why?" whispered Sakura. She didn't know who the hell she was talking to. Her mind wasn't making any sense what so ever.
"I'm trapped," replied Sasuke. She didn't need to know the full story quite yet.
"Can you escape?" asked Sakura.
"Yes. On one condition," replied Sasuke.
"Name it," stated Sakura.
"Come with me," demanded Sasuke.
Sakura didn't know what to do. This man belonged to another woman. She didn't want to be a home wrecker but she couldn't leave him. Her heart ached just knowing that she could walk away from his deal. She said the only thing that came to her mind,
"Okay."
Sasuke smiled. Sakura felt herself melt. She would melt into his arms if he wanted her to. Sasuke suddenly stood up. Sakura tried following the motion with her eyes. Her head was dizzy as hell. She needed to sleep and bad.
"Hinata please pack us bags," ordered Sasuke. Hinata nodded her head.
He had shit to do. He flipped open his phone and flicked a couple buttons. Then flipped it shut. It wasn't even two seconds later when Sakura heard a beep. Sasuke flipped it open again and he smiled. Apparently whatever it was; it was good news.
"Hey Hinata pack a bag for you too. You're coming with us," smiled Sasuke. Sakura had no idea where Sasuke would be taking them. The Hinata took off like she was shot.
An hour later; Sasuke was driving downtown. His eyes were blurry and sore. He looked over to the woman who had his heart. She was sleeping on the window. Her chest moved up and down with each inhale and exhale. She was lightly snoring. Sasuke smiled.
"Sasuke-sama you love her don't you?" whispered Hinata. Sasuke was slightly startled; he had thought both women were sleeping.
"Yes. I do," replied Sasuke.
Hinata nodded. "Good."
Then the car was silent until they hit their destination. The car ride was going to be a long one. Sasuke could tell already.
