Summary: Itachi is desperate to get Kyubi, so he plants a certain invisible cursed mind-seal on a certain pink-haired kunoichi. The seal is to be physically activated by the touch of a male, but how can it be that problems arise, when the seal not only helps mind reading, but also creates emotional telekinesis… and is it really just one male that can activate the seal? ItaSaku & KakaSaku

Fragility Of The Sakura
-By FrozyEmo
Chapter Eleven: The 7 Deadly Sins: Sloth
The mist clung to the moist ground, as several pairs of feet walked towards the little village in the horizon. The soft and soothing sound of droplets of rain falling gently onto the leaves above them mingled with the quiet sound of birds chirping in the late hours of the night.
Sakura was cradled in the arms of Kakashi, clinging onto him weakly, her head dangling from side to side, eventually finding rest onto his clothed chest. Occasionally a whimper would break through her pursed lips, and he would press her closer to him in comfort.
Naruto was walking closely beside them, eyeing her carefully with concern, though his eyes stored a darkness never having been there before. His body was stiff, and his posture as he walked was tense. The happy grin on his face was replaced with a light frown and narrowed eyes, his fists clenched. Sasuke on the other hand was walking a few feet behind, his eyes closed and his jaw tense. His whole body sending of an aura as strong as the purest acid.
Neither said a word.
Kakashi's face was cast in shadows, but had it been day and light wouldn't have abandoned earth, you could've seen the blank expression currently taking residence on his face.
"It's raining," Naruto suddenly stated flatly, his voice tense and thick. Kakashi barely acknowledged his student.
"I know an old lady in the village. She'll give us shelter for the night," he proclaimed stiffly. Naruto nodded, when Sasuke merely seemed to create more distance between him and the other three.
"Sasuke, you're falling behind," Kakashi claimed, and earned nothing but a silent grunt of approval from Sasuke, as he took a few more steps and ended up right behind them. Naruto looked down the ground, the frown still tugging at his forehead, and his lips pursed in thoughts. A bird chirped high above their head as it took off, the rustling of leaves echoing through the silence.
Sakura struggled to open her eyelids. "Sensei?"
Her voice came out dry and weak, and she inwardly cursed herself for being so pathetic right now. She blamed it on the shock of finally seeing the real Itachi. The cruel, sinister and sadistic Itachi. The cold-hearted one. The killer. The one everybody spoke of. Yes, finally she had seen him and she blamed her current state on that fact, though she knew… deep inside…
That was not the case. Something entirely else was.
"Sure it isn't Kiiran-chan, we're friends now"
"Yes… Friends… "
"Hm?" Kakashi asked, as he let his eyes roam over her face. Sakura parted her lips and let out an audible sigh. She furrowed her brows and closed her eyes in exhaustion. The deal… She had broken it.
"My legs are getting numb," she said softly. Kakashi simply nodded and adjusted her a bit differently in his arms.
"Better?" he asked gentler than before and looked down at her, his expression hidden in the dark, yet she could faintly draw the outline of his face, and the slight glistening of his one visible onyx eye. She shuddered.
"A little. It's cold," she added thoughtfully.
"I know."
"That old lady? Does she know we're coming?" Naruto asked tensely, his voice strained. Kakashi sighed. They were taking it better than he thought. Perhaps because he had explained the seal to them. If he hadn't and Sakura had jumped him, he would probably lie dead in the gutter by now. Castrated. They had surprised him a lot lately. They had shown more maturity than ever, and he was slightly proud they handled this mess so well. Especially Sasuke. Having been standing mere steps away from his revenge, his goal in life.
Apparently, he did value friends more, than what he was willing to admit.
"She knows. I sent her a letter," Kakashi explained shortly. Naruto looked at him confused.
"A letter?"
"Pakkun," he shrugged. Naruto, not knowing how to respond to that, looked at Sakura concernedly. Almost immediately, his eyes widened in anxiety, as he found her eyes closed and her body limp. Kakashi noticed and sent his student a smile.
"She's gonna be okay. Just exhausted," he said calmly and watched in amusement as Naruto relaxed. He nodded.
"Good. What are we going to do now?"
Kakashi sighed. "Well, first we have to ask Sakura why Itachi is so persistent on holding her captive, if she knows of course, and if she does, we will have to take it from there!"
A bitter snort was released behind them. Kakashi narrowed his eyes, and waited for Sasuke to spit out what he undoubtedly would.
"The bastard wants Kyuubi," Sasuke spat repulsed, and crossed his arms over his chest, as if was he uneasy about it. Naruto was the one to gain shock instead of anger. His eyes widened to the size of plates, and his mouth fell open. He stared ridiculously at Sasuke, whose eyes were focused on the ground. Kakashi shook his head.
"Unfortunately that might be it Sasuke," he breathed softly, smiling gently as Sakura cuddled closer to him in her body's search for heat. Naruto noticed and a little frown replaced the shock on his face. Sasuke said nothing, if he noticed.
"How can he get Kyuubi? He's sealed inside me," Naruto reasoned weakly.
"I don't know Naruto. I suppose they might try unsealing it somehow, making you lose control and let Kyuubi take over your body. In that way they can capture the chakra of Kyuubi, but then this is just guesses. We don't know anything yet, and I doubt Sakura-"
"He wouldn't tell her," Sasuke interrupted harshly, his words cold and plain. Itachi would never tell Sakura. He may had taken a liking to her, Sasuke didn't doubt that, but he would never tell her deliberately what his plan involved. Itachi trusted nobody. Not even Kisame. It was highly doubtful he would even consider trusting anybody at all. Only if it was truly needed.
"You don't know that," Naruto claimed stubbornly, but was silenced by a look from Kakashi.
The rest of the trip to the village was walked in silence

Sakura gratefully welcomed the cup of warm tea being placed in her hands. She was wrapped into several thick and slightly scratchy blankets, sitting in front of a fireplace, flames sensually, even erotically, licking out the essence of the dry wood. Her eyes were blurry, her body practically jelly and her face lifeless.
The same scene kept playing over and over in her mind. The elegant flick of his wrist. The splash of blood. The paleness of eyes. That one lock of hair. The hollow sound of something lifeless hitting the floor.
It was horrible. She hadn't known whether to actually look or look away the moment it happened, but she had no choice. She had been stupefied. Her whole body had gone numb and didn't obey what her mind had yelled at her. What her heart had told her to do. What her very should had urged her to do.
But what had she done?
She had looked.
The one thing she shouldn't have done. If she hadn't done it, she wouldn't sit there now, remembering how the warmth left those familiar eyes. How a spear had pierced her life. How it had ended everything she had left.
Her life.
She had been so stupid. Acting so mature and proud, when she really was afraid of... She hadn't had to guts to apologise to her, and tell her the truth. But it was still written in her mind with big, fat and bold letters: ´Losing their friendship´. She hadn't feared Kiiran getting Itachi. It wasn't jealousy. Or the thing called envy. Not at all. She had simply feared losing Kiiran. And now…
She had…
A light blush made it's way onto her cheeks. She had kissed him. She had kissed her sensei, regardless of the issues it would cause later on. But then, it hadn't been her fault. Well, at least not all of it had been. If Itachi just hadn't neglected her, the seal wouldn't have reached out for Kakashi-sensei, and she wouldn't have kissed him in front of Naruto and Sasuke-kun. That was the most humiliating part.
"Sakura, eat. You need to gain weight," Kakashi's smooth voice interrupted her train of thoughts. She blinked and sure enough, the elderly lady, who had offered them shelter for the night, placed a bowl of warm soup right in front of her nose. Apparently, she somehow knew Kakashi.
"I'm not hungry," she pouted and tugged the sheets tighter around herself. It wasn't cold, but her body seemed to have lost all its heat.
Naruto looked at her with concern, and he grinned sheepishly.
"Sakura-chan, you are rather skinny," he mumbled hesitantly, as if fearing her wrath. She did send him a scolding glare, although it was far from being angry. Sasuke eyed her coldly. He hadn't spoken to her nicely, since she got back, but more importantly, she hadn't tried talking to him either, knowing perfectly well how it would turn out in the end.
"I'm not hungry," she muttered and shook her head at the soup, wrinkling her nose at it. Kakashi sent her a dry glare, clearly telling her she was pushing the limit, as well as his patience.
"Sakura. Eat."
She shook her head defiantly. It wasn't that she wasn't hungry, she actually was, but she just felt like teasing him, wanted to feel his wrath upon her for some reason. Maybe to forget what she had done to him only hours earlier. To make him angry with her, so she would have other things to worry about having occurred between the two of them.
She smirked bitterly. Life was a cruel thing, and so was fate.
"No," she retorted flatly and closed her eyes, cuddling into the chair.
"Sakura-" Naruto tried, but was cut off rudely by Kakashi.
"I don't want to force you to eat, Sakura," he said sternly with a sharp voice. She was playing with fire, but somehow she just loved it. She loved the thrill of it. She enjoyed finally being back with her team, but most of all she enjoyed being able to quarrel with her sensei. He was so damn fun making annoyed. Mostly because it was rare he lost his patience, but Sakura had eventually mastered the act known as "getting down the Copy Ninja", and fortunately she was the only one having mastered that tremendous act.
Sighing dramatically, she picked up the spoon and dug deep down into the soup. Slowly she raised it to her lips, sipping the warm liquid into her mouth agonizingly slowly. Kakashi raised one eyebrow.
"Finish the bowl," he ordered, but she simply shook her head.
"Sakura-"
"I'm tired," she quickly cut him of, earning a wicked grin from Naruto, finally having seemed to understand what she was doing. He had always been the one to support her concerning this, but then him being a former prankster, it was pretty much obvious he wouldn't be against it in the least. Sasuke…Well, with him she never knew.
"You have to eat the bowl," Kakashi said patiently, his voice slightly unsteady, and a light growl followed the words.
She shook her head, smirking. Kakashi sighed, and shook his head. Well, he better had to get this over with. The faster it was said, the faster she would get over it. For Naruto and Sasuke. It didn't really matter. The knew half of it anyway.
"Kiiran has the same seal as you Sakura. But more importantly, I'm the one she had it with."
She literally stopped breathing, even though he simply continued mercilessly.
"That's how I was able to persuade her to help us. As you probably know Sakura, she and I can talk together in our minds over distances. Just like you and Itachi. So, as you see Sakura, she has been though the same thing, and she knew how it was! That was why she agreed doing what she did," he explained shortly.
Sakura was stunned into silence. She could only watch in complete shock, her body cold and numb, her eyes blank and void of any motion currently running through her bones, making her entire body tremble with realisation.
Naruto frowned and tilted his head, looking at Kakashi, who purposely avoided casting a glance towards Sakura's direction.
"What do you mean Kaka-sensei?" Naruto asked and furrowed his brows in the childish act of confusion. Sakura was blinking rapidly by now, her breathing unsteady and shallow. Sasuke's eyes glued to her, as if she was going to black out any second, and then he could smirk that famous I-knew-she-was-weak smirk, he always wore around her.
"She sacrificed herself for Sakura's freedom," Kakashi said softly, his eyes locking with Sakura's.
"Sakura?"
"Are you okay?" Naruto took over and leaned forward to take a better look at her. Her eyes were blank and her face paler than usual. Her voice was flat and monotone, as she finally decided to speak.
"In other words…I killed her."
There was no sound after those words. Only a silence as dead as the grave.
Then, her sensei's voice mingled with the silence.
"No, you did not. She suffered under knowing how being caged inside a trap, you can never escape, though of course as time went by, the seal got useless the more time we spent away from each other, meaning her body lost its sexual urges. In other words, the need for sexual acts simply disappeared."
"Sakura, where are you going? I swear, I didn't mean for that to happen."
"Oh what? Did I touch a sore spot? Do you fear Itachi might forget you and turn attention upon somebody else? Huh? Do you fear him just using you? Like some fuck-doll,"
"What is wrong with you-"
"Wrong? You know what Kiiran? You are so incredibly naïve to think, I don't know what you're doing! You couldn't bear if he accidentally slipped into somebody else could you? You keep talk to me about avoiding him, but why don't you just do it yourself?"
"So whatever you saw, Sakura, between her and Itachi …it was purely him! She wanted me to say that to you, to make you feel better about him."
"You're jealous."
"I thought you found me repulsive Sakura-chan,"
"Am I only allowed to satisfy my needs in you, kunoichi?"
"I am the predator Sakura. A territorial predator."
The sudden flash of something black and blue standing up roughly, made Sakura jerk back to reality, her eyes landing upon a furious Sasuke, having his fists clenched and his eyes narrowed at his unaffected sensei, watching him in boredom with his one visible eye.
"Feel better about him?" Sasuke spat with venom. Kakashi shrugged him off, with a dismissive wave of his hand, "Sasuke, now is not the time"
Sakura frowned, her eyes narrowing. What did they think of her? That she enjoyed what that bastard had done to her? That she enjoyed what he had to do in order to complete the deal? What the heck he was planning on doing? The way he toyed with her, both emotionally and mentally.
Did they think she fucking enjoyed him?
Am I really that much of a freaking slut? What the hell am I to them? Inner Sakura shrieked angrily and balled her fists. And for the second time within 24 hours, Sakura agreed with her inner mind.
She stood up as well, although she did it slowly and securely, making sure everybody's eyes were trained on her. Then she shook her head bitterly.
"No, Sasuke is right. Why would I feel-"
"Sakura…", Kakashi muttered, his voice plain, "don't say what you're going to regret."
Regret? What the fuck does he mean? I'm not going to regret anything. Could it be…Holy shit! Is he saying…That I feel something for…Itachi?
Slowly… she left the room.

"Oh shut up," Chii hissed at the two bickering males. Kisame shot her a dark look and Hajo elbowed his cousin in the ribs. Itachi watched them continue their fight, Chii now engaged heatedly in it as well, with little interest. His thoughts were focused on the now broken deal, but just as much on her. On her soft lips, her supple body, her pink hair… her jade eyes…
He shook his head. He had to be stern. Had to remember what this was about. This was about a broken promise, a broken deal. She had betrayed her part, and he was now allowed to betray his, meaning… he was allowed to kill in order to get her.
He smirked coldly. Only made it much easier.
"Look, we need to get that damn information. The scroll is getting-"
"Oh, calm down. In time Itachi-san will feed it!"
"We have no time!"
Itachi ignored the heated voices in the background and stayed to his thoughts. He was confused. It would be a lie to say, he was sad, but something in his chest ached. A hollow space, for lack of better non-poetic term, had been there ever since she had left. A throbbing. Aching. Itching. Something that clawed his body from the inside and out, trying to break through his skin and bones in its hunger for daylight.
He didn't care for her. He didn't like her.
Those same sentences were carved into his brain, allowing him to think of that and only that. So foolish of him. Letting her go like that.
It had been Kiiran's fault. She had betrayed him, by helping the kunoichi to escape. And he who had taken her under his care and fed her, actually having cared the slightest for her. She had thrown that trust down the sink in betraying him so forcefully. And she had suffered.
He smirked bitterly. She had it coming to her.
At that time, it had been thrilling seeing the shock in Sakura's eyes. Seeing that she finally understood what he was. A killer. A merciless one. But now…that thrill was an itching worry.
Was it now impossible to fulfil the deal with her maybe hating, even fearing, him? Fulfilling the careless promise, they had made?
Someone was bound to be hurt eventually. He had just no expected it to be the both of them…Yes, there! He had admitted it! It had struck him hard, that she had left.
But then…Only made it much funnier, getting her back.
Besides, he still had to toy with that traitorous little inner mind of hers.
He smirked. Oh yes. This was going to be fun.
Slowly, he stood up from his position in the chair. Three pairs of eyes swept across the room to lock onto his moving form.
"Itachi-san?"
Without a word, Itachi took off out into the early morning, following the trail of chakra of a certain pink-haired kunoichi.
(-)
She sat snuggling up against the wall to the house, a thick blanket curled around her body. Her eyes were closed, as if had weight been applied to them in the shape of a heavy burden. She looked almost ethereal in the grace of her sleep. Her breathing was soft and audible, almost like the quiet, little pants from a newborn baby.
Itachi smirked, hovering above her petite frame and watching her intently. She looked so fragile in her sleep. She had done that back at home as well, but that had often been a restless sleep, where she would wriggle and squirm around, but this was a peaceful sleep. One where her body was completely numb and completely relaxed.
He had followed her trail of chakra through the forest, and even though it was faint, due to having been masked, they had still underestimated him. One can never mask his chakra completely. There will always be a little something left, it was just very few people being able to sense that little amount left behind. But luckily….he could…which had helped him many times in the past as well as it had helped him right now.
Ever so softly, he reached out and tugged a strand of pastel hair behind her left ear. She stirred a little in her sleep, but calmed down eventually.
Smirking darkly, he leaned forward, his lips close to her ear.
"Time to wake up, little kunoichi," he whispered softly and nuzzled her ear with his nose. A small whimper left Sakura's lips, and she turned her head to the other side, hugging the blanket tighter. Itachi watched her in amusement, waiting until she had settled down once more.
Inching towards her, he decided he had waited long enough. Nibbling at the corner of her lips, he smirked, as she parted them instinctively.
Another thing he liked about the human. When in sleep it reacted on instinct and desire. Nothing rational mixed with the human's actions. It was purely instinct.
"Kunoichi," he breathed gently and couldn't help but smirk even more, as she mewled softly and her lips searched for his.
"Sakura-chan, you need to wake up," he spoke against her lips. She only kept mewling and Itachi decided it was enough. With a dark smirk, he leaned forward and bit her bottom lip harshly.
Sakura was literally in heaven. Her entire body flooded with warmth and lightness. She could sense soft whispers far away, but she was far too drugged to take any serious notice of them.
….At least until a sharp pain jolted right through her lip.
Her eyes shot open and she blinked wildly, forcing her vision to stop being blurry and instead focus, although when they did focus, they landed on the very essence of her fear.
"I-Itachi," she whispered shocked, her voice wavering with panic. In front of her sat Itachi on his knees, his hands placed on the wall she was pinned up against and effectively caging her. Sakura flushed a terrible shade of crimson, and tried to no avail hiding it. Being this close to him, in his supreme proximity after he had been neglecting her, made the seal swirl warmth through her entire body and it was as if her nether regions literally swelled with the force of warmth mingling down there.
"You broke the deal," he stated flatly, his eyes watching her without any mercy at all, without any of the usual lust in them. Sakura trembled, her mind still sleep-drugged. Shaking her head, she watched him with her eyes wide with fear.
"I-I didn't. They came for me. I-I didn't know," she stuttered frantically, her body flinching on its own accord, as he smirked coldly.
Oh shit. He's gonna kill me. He's so much gonna kill me.
"You're afraid of me," he claimed. Bewildered Sakura flushed even more.
Oh fuck. Stop reacting to him you silly jerk! It's not making things any better.
"Makes it all the more fun then. Now tell me kunoichi, why would you suddenly be afraid of me? I remember you being fierce and angry, when I would stay this close to you. What has happened?"
He mocked her. She knew. And even worse, he knew why she was afraid of him. Without Sakura having noticed, Itachi had managed to lean forward.
"Everything with us is one step forward and two steps back, huh?" he whispered huskily into her ear, the smug smirk still plastered onto his lips. Sakura gasped softly and placed a hand on his shoulder, pushing him back in his original position.
She stiffened, afraid she might had pushed the limit, but he simply smirked knowingly at her.
Damn! Stupid, stupid, stupid…
"Get away from me," she mumbled weakly. Itachi smirked. The seal was too strong for her to fight. He could sense it. Her will to defeat him in this game, was far too weak.
She wanted him.
"You like the thrill of it though. You're flushed, your breathing is ragged, your eyes are glazed over, your body is warm and trembling, not to forget your heart is pounding deeply in your chest, your skin is glistening with sweat, and to think I yet have to deliberately touch you…" he trailed of with a smirk.
Sakura stared at him in shock, not believing what was happening. Her body was trembling with anticipation and warmth, and there was little she could do to prevent it, as Itachi leaned closer once again.
"You're not playing fair," Sakura reasoned desperately, all her anger washed away. Itachi only smirked and arched one elegantly shaped eyebrow.
"You know all of that and… I don't. I'm a vir-…. You're playing tricks with me," Sakura said accusingly and tried to fight down the blush on her cheeks.
Oh shit, what the fuck did I just say! Why the hell did I say that? Why the hell am I playing this stupid game with him anyway? The other are only a few steps away from me, just yell Sakura. Yell!
"Are you a virgin, kunoichi?" he whispered seductively in her ear. Sakura's world froze to a halt. She couldn't even respond. She could only place a shaky hand on his chest to push him away, though unfortunately at the feel of his muscles flexing beneath the palm of her hand, she turned into a puddle of fire at his feet.
A pathetic whimper left her lips, as she tried to block his words from reaching her.
Haruno Sakura, get a grip! You are not one of those damn women kissing his feet, just to share a bed with him for one night!
"I find the pure thought of being the first male to make her quiver and tremble at a single touch is arousing," he tenderly let out, "caressing and kissing her to find that that specific spot that makes her entire being quiver, that one spot she never knew of herself. To be her ever first lover, or however you prefer saying it, and be responsible for showing her that making love can be intensely wonderful."
Itachi closed his eyes with a sigh. The passion in his words right now was to be blamed for the throbbing at the apex of her thighs.
"To hear when she moans your name in bliss, hearing your name roll of her lips in the most sensual and erotic way… It's addicting.," Itachi said huskily with his eyes still closed. That was until he opened them though and looked at her under the thick and dark eyelashes of his. He smirked at her, moving even closer, until the very point where she could feel his warm breath collide with the skin on her neck.
"You respond very easily to verbal seduction," he smirked and Sakura instantly went pale.
"Look, I don't know what you are doing or who you think you are, but you quit what you are doing right now," she stuttered, an unknown anger spreading through her like white-hot fire. How dared he play with her mind like that. Even though she of course was a virgin, it was still unfair to pull such tricks on her. She was even more vulnerable to it, when she was a virgin after all!
"Oh and why?" Itachi asked in mock disbelief. Sakura managed to glare at him without seeming too rude though. She didn't want him starting a battle with her. Slowly his hand went up to play with the lock of hair, and Sakura instantly alerted herself. He twirled the lock around one finger with sensual swirls.
"Be a slave to your desires Sakura," he whispered in her ear, causing her entire body to tremble with a foreign desire.
"Itachi," Sakura finally let out when he nibbled tenderly on her ear with his teeth. She cursed her weakness that moment. That damn weakness. She had to get away from him, or she was going to lose control. She really was.
"Stop it," she said breathlessly.
"Making you realise where you belong?" Itachi murmured into the hollow of her neck. Sakura tensed, her eyes wide with fear.
…he's…right…
"I need information Sakura! It was our deal, and you broke it," Itachi said calmly, his voice betraying the rage he felt inside. After all, it really wasn't her fault. She couldn't have known they would try rescue her, although he had though them a bit smarter than that. It was clearly said in the deal, if it was broken, he didn't have to hold back in his lust to make them suffer a slow death whatsoever.
Sakura's mind was numbed by now, and she could only nod. Itachi watched her with narrowed eyes.
"Nothing is keeping me from killing your little friends right now," he added coldly, watching as fear washed over her frame. Not being able to stop herself, Sakura's hand shot up to grab the back of his neck in a pure reaction of fear. Her jade eyes were oddly blurry and confused. Itachi stared at her coolly, purposely not acknowledging the hand on his neck.
"Please…Don't…" Sakura pleaded weakly.
Itachi looked at her repulsed. She was so weak. So damn weak, but somehow…It didn't matter when it was her.
"Please Itachi… I'll…"
Just this once. Couldn't she be allowed to be selfish just this once? Closing her eyes, Sakura's head fell to her chest.
"…Let you get information for free."
Itachi stared at her. Simply stared, as she crumbled beneath his hands. As she finally gave up on her last pride and confessed her deepest sin.
I'm done. I'm done fighting. Done fighting what I want.
Watching her, Itachi then grasped his kunai in a tight grip and placed it at the top of the blanket. Slowly, almost tenderly, he cut through the thick fabric, creating a soft, yet oddly terrifying sound, as the tip of the kunai cut through the strings of the fabric.
She didn't fight him. Not anymore.
Shoving the blanket aside, Itachi slid an arm around her waist, pulling her flush with him. A soft gasp let her lips, and she shuddered lightly, as the calloused pads of his fingers slid up to her thigh, searching for that one spot aching so badly. His fingers connected with the seal, and Sakura's body went rigid in his grip.
"Relax," he breathed softly in her ear. Sakura was overwhelmed by his gentleness and it didn't make it any better that he was finally touching her, the way her body had longed for, for such a long time by now.
Gently drawing circles on the sensitive spot, Itachi nipped her ear suggestively, "tell me."
Sakura nodded dazedly and licked her lips.
"When Kyubi is released, it's because Naruto is overwhelmed by emotions. In most cases because someone he cares for and worries about is in danger or when he wants someone to understand him, or when he's reminded of his past," she managed to let out rather steadily and to her own surprise her voice hadn't even been that thick with arousal, as she had first assumed it to be.
Itachi smirked and licked the shell of her ear, feeling the information transferring from the seal to the scroll. That had to be enough. He had a reputation to uphold and the poor girl was literally sexually starved. The scroll was maybe important, but Sakura was too.
….Wait…What the fuck did he just think?
"Good girl. Now I think you deserve a little something for being such obedient," he proclaimed innocently. Sakura only whimpered in response. Itachi was grateful the girl hadn't changed her clothes yet. She was still in the cloak. If she had changed to her normal outfit when with Team 7, he would have problems getting where he wanted.
Sliding his fingers upwards to her hips, he tenderly started to trace patterns on her one hipbone. A hushed moan escaped her pursed lips. Sakura was unaware of the fact, she was grinding into him, following the motions of his hips and battling him for dominance, though Itachi was quite aware.
His fingers tugged at the cloak and soon it was shoved away, showing him a good amount of cleavage. He smirked. Another reason why he preferred her wearing Akatsuki clothes. Their shirts tended to be very low cut.
"The deal. Is it still on?" Sakura panted softly and placed a tender nip on his jaw. Itachi growled lightly and moved his head away from her lips, knowing he for sure would lose control, if she kept up grinding against him and add her mouth to the sensation.
She didn't deserve being taken on the ground…
…What?
"You broke it," Itachi muttered and bit her shoulder harshly, not paying attention to the small moan leaving her swollen lips. Her quivering fingers slid down his chest, desperately searching for something she knew to be warm and hard. She clutched at his cloak and with a few violent pulls, she managed to open it clumsily. Without any hesitation she slid her hand under the hem of his shirt.
A low growl left his lips, and he bit down once again on her shoulder, and then licked the sore spot as if to soothe the pain, which was slowly subsiding at the feel of his tongue.
Sakura tossed her head to the side and her small hand placed its palm flat on his toned stomach, feeling the hardness of muscles resting there. Flushing, she scratched her nails across those muscles and was rewarded with a hiss. Her hand was roughly removed; lips coaxing her mouth open in a brutal kiss of sheer and pure need.
Her breathing was shallow, yet deep, as she fought to control her body. His lips slid down to her collarbone, nipping and nibbling eagerly, sucking as well. She arched her back and entangled her fingers in his raven locks, gently massaging his scalp with her fingers.
"Oh god Itachi," Sakura whispered, her lips dry with anticipation. Itachi smirked and eyed her shirt hungrily. That one had to go.
Grabbing his kunai, formerly having been placed on the ground, he nestled the tip at the collar of the shirt and with one elegant motion of his wrist, cut the offending material in two halves. Sakura flushed and looked at him in shock.
"You cut my shirt!"
"It had to go," he smirked at her obvious shock. Modesty overwhelmed her and Sakura quickly covered her chest with her hands, even though she still had her bra covering parts she certainly didn't want Itachi near.
"Don't deny yourself," he whispered huskily and smoothly in her ear. Giving her no time to reply, he skilfully unclasped the innocent and white cotton bra, not being rude enough to cut it like he had done with the shirt and cloak.
"Itachi," she gasped in sheer embarrassment, but he simply sent her a smirk.
"Get used to it," he replied smugly, eyeing her chest and inched forward too suddenly for her to do anything but gasp, as his warm lips closed around the hard peak tenderly. She suppressed the loud moan threatening to leave her lip in a cry of ecstasy. His lips began moulding the sensitive nub, Sakura's breath hitching in her throat.
"I-Itachi," she hissed shakily, "they're right inside. S-stop!"
"Then you better be quiet," he smirked and did nothing to stop the ministrations on her breast. He bit down harshly, causing Sakura to gasp in sudden pain, which quickly subsided as the licking took over the biting. Sakura whimpered and squirmed restlessly.
"Itachi…You say the deal is off, right?" she forced out of her numb lips. Itachi stopped for second, looking her in the eye, as she continued, giving him the ever first heart attack in his entire life.
"Would it be considered wrong if I asked you to take me with you?"
I can't take all credit for this chapter! I got MAJOR inspiration from a talented writer on fictionpress. Name is Mistress 2! Go read her fics!
A/N: ARGH, finally it's out. I'm terribly sorry it took so long, but as promised at the top of this chapter, I would explain why. I've been busy with homework and unfortunately exams are coming up in one day. I've been studying hard for the exams, and that's why my inspiration to write has been lacking lately, but now it's back and hopefully it will stay this time.
Anyway, I promised a friend: Atayla the Maiden of Darkness to get her more reviewers, so I highly recommend you guys to read her fic: Meet your Match.
And I got 75 review or something, do DO NOT get sad if I haven't answered your review. Seriously, it gives me headaches every time I get to the review responses area of my chapters. But YOU WILL ALWAYS BE MENTIONED. Maybe not in long review, but your name will always be mentioned if you have reviewed.
And look out for my ItaSaku oneshot!
Cats:
YAY, this time you guys get little kittens as rewards for guessing the sin!

Preview Of Chapter 12:
(As usual, guess, guess, guess)
"Just because I'm here, doesn't mean you have the right to be all over me!"
"You never complained before!"
"You never had your lips on my every fucking hour of the day before!"
"You like it!"
"That's not the point here. The point is I need to breathe and I can't, having your mouth ravishing my mouth all day long!"
"Dear kunoichi, if you wanted my mouth paying attention to other places, you could just have asked and I would gladly have taken it up to consideration!"
"I-Itachi!"
Review Responses:
XUchihaSakuraXYou sure had a lot of randomness. I like that! Go you! And even better, maybe that randomness will help me and my oneshot, so yay!
kaitou angelEver forgive him? Well, the whole Kiiran thing wasn't that much in this chapter, but later it will. It's not just something Sakura'll forget that easily just by a few touches from him…
I know I for sure would –drool-
Ahem yeah…hehe…
moomoomoothegirl Thanks for randomness. I can always use a lot of that. It gives me inspiration, even though it's weird. Hehe, I guess that's just me in a nutshell. Plain weird and all and now I'm rambling, so I'll just shut up and say thanks once again!
aoiroke-chanMany guessed greed actually, and to be honest I had thought it to be that, but then I thought: Okay, sloth is the hardest one, so if I just get that one over with the rest will come smoothly and easily, and somehow sloth fit this, since Sakura gave up and finally gave into him. She was too lazy to fight him anymore. AND she was all depressed and down because Kiiran was killed soooo… I took my chance and picked sloth!
Rhonda21 Hehe, and sorry for the cliffy this time. Poking Paluza? O.O
La-Garce-FilleYAY, YOU LIKED KIIRAN! THANK GOD! I liked her as well, I still do, but so many HATED her, that I had to kill her, because it annoyed my everyone said they hated her. I kinda meant for people to like her, because really she isn't bad at all, and YES! YOU LIKED HER!
LURVE YOU!
rien mieux: It's gonna be ItaSaku…Hehe, but with a little hint of KakaSaku, but STILL mostly ItaSaku.
akashicrecordWho is she going to end up with…MUAHAHAHA! You may never know…
mina86: YAY, finally someone who understands me and the lack of anime in some countries. Hehe…
blackXheartHelp with the seal? Maybe he will, but not right now. Perhaps later on.
The warmth of the Afterglow: ………OO
Sakura Moon I'll think about that. If I feel like, I'll make an alternate ending-chapter then.
Akkirako ChikuroYep, you can call me Frozzy!
-munches on the Butterscotch chocolate-
It's fun writing about her being molested by many men as well. Hehe, I love making her suffer. It's like writing down your own fantasy. Being fancied by three men! Ah… I unfortunately I can only imagine how that would be.
HAHA! Yep, Chii is REALLY beautiful and maybe her and Itachi will start something… Just kidding…hehe
And yes, you guessed right. He did go after Sakura, though she wasn't in Konoha, but still. This chapter would've been boring, if he hadn't gone after her you know.
You'll get the flashback later! I promise. It didn't fit in this chapter. YES. IT IS THE SAME. I STUDY LIKE A MANIAC…hehe…
BlueKanji I kinda made Itachi kill Kiiran for that exact reason. Mu opinion is that even though Itachi maybe respect Sakura and like her etc. then he wont change his personality. He is still Uchiha Itachi, and there is an image following that name. An image you can't destroy by making hum all cuddly over one single girl.
I am? I never thought I was good a mixing in my own OC's. To be honest, I've never been flamed EVER, soo…hehe…
xXCrackRomanticXx Nope, it wont last long. Itachi'll come and get Sakura. I mean hey, if he didn't where would all the fun in this chapter be, huh? I have a rule: ALWAYS ITASAKU FLUFF in EACH chapter.
You see Kakashi the way I see him as well. I see him as the pervert of course, but that's just his outside. He is the one with the biggest morals, in my opinion, and he wouldn't ever do anything indecent like that, without feeling bad about it. Besides he's only a pervert, because other people had labelled him being it.
You are one of the two persons, seeing MY WHOLE DAMN CHAPTER SO WELL!
The thing with Itachi killing Sakura, yes I did make him do that, to break the haze you people must've been in. I mean, Uchiha Itachi. A very strong image follows that name and that image can't be destroyed by a simple girl. At least in my opinion. Besides, he's stronger than that. Mentally. And having lived a life like him for so long, it takes longer than a few weeks to make him change that drastically. I doubt he ever will actually.
AND ARGH! You are COMPLETELY RIGHT with the sloth-thing. It CREEPS ME OUT!
hehe…
Seishi SairensunoHehe, I'm glad you bothered to read it then.
miaka54321 GRRRR, turning my review into an add…
laffytaffyyy: Through this whole fic, I have never made Sakrua cry, because she can't. She can't cry anymore because of all the things in her life and all that stuff. She cried so much in her youth, that now she simply can't feel enough to cry. She has forgotten how to. And then she's sorry, she can't cry because Kiiran was killed. She WANTS to cry, but she can't…
Miakoda13YAY FANART…COOL! GIVE ME MY LINK! AHHHH…hehe…
Alysia: Sensual mind? Hehehehehehe…hehe….he…Yeah…hehe…I JUST WANNA POINT OUT IT IS NOT EXPERIENCE! I've simply just read a lot, causing me to have such a sensual mind. And then I think I just have a thing for it or something. My teacher always say: "Halvdelen er ren øvelse, resten er evner"
Or translated into English: "Half of it is practice, the rest skills"
I KNOW! I'm lazy when it comes to grammar…hehe…
reader17Nope. Not a KakaSaku. Try find reread the time Kakashi explained the seal to Naruto and Sasuke, and then you'll understand…I'm sure of it!
Atayla the Maiden of Darkness: I put your story in my authors note… Why? YOU'RE MY FRIEND!
Tsumii Nope. Hajo is not dead and yes. He and Chii were those mysterious persons from earlier chapters. A lemon…Hehe…Not yet at least.
Hatake KayumeThe producers of the anime would use my story? WOW! You like it that much! Cool! Thanks so much!
selandora: Yep, Kiiran had the seal as well... WITH KAKASHI!
theoneandonlydarkpowderpuff Of course I make Itachi go get her. I mean, where would all the fun and all the tension be if he didn't huh?
You give me way too many compliments. I'm not that good a writer, but thanks either way, if you really mean all that you said.
Deathflight: I'm from Denmark, so my native language is Danish. A complicated language for others to learn. Seriously. Hehe…
Firefox: You ALMOST convinced me to change the title to greed, but then I kinda saw connection between slut and the plot in this chapter, and then I thought: "Hey, sloth is the hardest one to make fit", and then I just grabbed the chance and took it instead.
And yes…
You must feel very stupid right now…BUT…Instead of a kitten, I'll give you a puppy…hehe…
Jennjennr: I'm really happy you like my OC's, both Chii and Hajo. They get a pretty big role in my story later on, so yeah..
I didn't put Naruto and Sasuke's reaction into words. It was more like the way they acted if you get me, though I think you do. You're a smart one!
Yeah, damn you being a grammar police…hehe… It's okay. I find many mistakes, when I reread my older chapters and I just wanna lay down an die. So humiliating. I just discovered that in one chapter I wrote simply, when it should've be simple… I was down for like…three seconds, but STILL!
CHICA DE LA LUNA FANTASMAIt's cool! I'm sure I can use it AND I'll make sure to say it's yours…hehe…I can't claim something not being my own.
THANKS TO YOU ALL!
