Reina was standing on a tree branch in her black ANBU get-up with her black rabbit mask. She was overseeing operation "Hidden Leaf Relief" where Konoha volunteered their aid to villages who have suffered casualties during rogue shinobi attacks and other disasters. Eventually, she traversed to another nearby village that was under construction. She took her notes and promptly left to the next village. By sundown, Reina had finally reported to the Hokage's tower. Upon her entry, Reina formally bowed on one knee, with one hand placed on the ground.

Reina lowered her head. "Lord Hokage, I have this week's report for the ongoing relief project."

Hashirama sighed with a small smile. "You do not have to be so formal."

"Would you care to see the reports?" Reina inquired as she stood up.

Hashirama's expression changed to one of curiosity. "You seem different."

"And why do you say that, Lord Hokage?" Reina inquired through her bunny mask.

"You're very cold." Hashirama stated bluntly. "Or perhaps I am just overthinking it."

"I simply prefer to operate with the utmost professionalism. As a leader in my own respect, it is best to set an example for my people so they know how to properly address figures of authority. I thought I should adopt formality into my practice." Reina paused. "It is also important that you begin to realize your power as the leader of a nation. And not just any nation, the first one ever founded. You cannot afford to be informal anymore. It is time that you command respect, or else no one will follow you."

Hashirama simply eyes his sister, the ANBU Black Ops leader, before him. "You really were perfect for this job. A dark heart that lies in the shadows." He stood up. "I understand your perspective, but you borderline on rude, Reina. I'm still your bro-"

"Lady Reina." She curtly corrected.

Hashirama paused. "I'm sorry?"

"Please refer to me as Lady Reina." Reina stated. "Or leader." She stepped closer to the desk. "As for being my brother, that has nothing to do with running a country." Reina produced her reports and handed them over with a bow. "It is paramount that you separate your personal life from work in order to be efficient and unbiased. Letting those close to you tug at your heart strings allows them to manipulate you like a puppet. Being professional does not mean you let go of your sense of humanity. They are not mutually exclusive. As someone who acts as an advisor to you, please head my advice."

Hashirama nodded and gave a slight bow while accepting the papers. "Thank you, Lady Reina. I will remember the importance of this conversation." He gave a polite smile. "I'll be sure to review these tonight. You are dismissed."

Reina nodded and bowed. "Thank you, Lord Hokage. Have a good night." With that, Reina stood up and walked out of the Hokage's office. As she opened the door, she paused to be confronted with Lady Mito. "Oh! Good evening, Lady Mito." She bowed and held the door open for her.

Mito smiled. "Thank… you…" She said slowly as she realized who was under the mask. "Reina?"

"Have a good evening." Reina simply stated before walking out.

Mito watched as Reina disappeared down the hallway before stepping into Hashirama's office. "My love, is everything alright with Reina?" She softly clicked the door shut behind her.

Hashirama turned around to look at the sun setting over the village through his bay windows. "I… would like to think so."

"She feels cold." Mito stated while walking over toward him. "And you seem depressed."

Hashirama turned to face her with a river of tears streaming down his face. "Do you think she hates me?"

Mito sighed. "Not again with the tears." She grabbed a hold of his hand. "No, I don't believe she hates you. Why? What did she say?"

"She was very curt and formal with me." Hashirama wiped his tears. "She scolded me by saying I need to be more professional and not let personal ties interfere with my work to command more respect."

Mito blinked. "I mean… it's a good idea."

"Am I a bad leader?" Hashirama cried again.

"N-no… No no no. You really are doing fine. Being Hokage is a relatively new position still. You are the first. There is no one before you to model how you should operate." Mito smiled. "Really… you're doing fine."

Hashirama wiped his tears away. "Then why does Reina think otherwise?"

"Well, do you know for certain she does?" Mito inquired.

Hashirama sniffled dramatically. "No, but-"

"Would you like me to go speak with her?" Mito inquired.

Hashirama's eyes sparkled through his glassy tears. "Yes please!"

That evening Reina was sipping tea while reading a book when she heard a knock on the door. She shuffled out of the library and to the entryway of her house. Reina recognized the chakra signature and opened the door. "Lady Mito?"

Mito bowed with a smile. "Good evening, Reina!"

Reina looked at her, slightly confused. "What brings you hear so late?"

"I was wondering if I could speak with you." Mito said quietly with her hands folded into her sleeves.

Reina paused for a moment, not really wanting any company at the moment. She nodded with a smile and bowed gently while opening the door. "Of course, please come in."

Mito stepped inside. "Thank you." She entered and slipped her shoes off in place of house slippers Reina laid out for her. "Cozy…"

"They were actually from the Village Hidden in the Waterfalls. For a newly developed village, they have a lot of luxury shops." Reina guided her into the library. "Do you mind having tea in here with me instead of the living room?"

"Of course not. I've never been in your library before." Mito smiled. "It's very… you."

Reina smiled with a small giggle. "Thank you. Please make yourself comfortable."

As Reina disappeared to make tea for the two of them, Mito scanned her bookshelves. "Peculiar selections…" Mito looked at the book Reina had laying on her chair and smiled. "She's a poet. What a cultured lady." The door slid open and Reina came into the library with a tray of tea and cups. Mito smiled excitedly at her. "I had no idea you were into Setsu."

Reina grinned. "Oh, yes. He is a wonderful poet. It took me a bit to get into his work, but once I was able to appreciate it I kinda fell into my own rabbit hole."

Mito chuckled and watched as Reina poured her a cup of tea. "Thank you."

"Of course." Reina gently placed a warm cup of tea in her hands and reclined in her chair. "So, might I ask what you wanted to discuss this evening?"

Mito nodded. "Yes, well, it was actually more per Hashirama's request."

Reina sighed. "Of course it was. I'm guessing he's butt hurt about what I said to him?"

"For lack of a better word, yes." Mito took a sip of her tea and nearly melted into the cup. "Wow, you brewed this perfectly." She set the cup down. "Hashirama essentially wanted to know if you were upset with him as a leader or brother."

Reina stiffened and set her cup down. "I see."

Mito watched her curiously. "So, are you?"

Reina looked at Mito as her head tilted to the side. "I don't really know."

Mito nodded. "That is a rather vague answer."

Reina chuckled. "You did catch me off guard. I never would have expected that some advice could cause someone to spiral so much." She sat up straight. "I also never would have thought that Hashirama would send you in his place if he is so genuinely concerned."

"I offered." Mito said plainly.

"With all due respect, Lady Mito, this has nothing to do with you." Reina said softly. "Do you understand the advice I gave him? If I, a leader of an organization, spoke with him directly, why is he having someone who has had no involvement in the matter do his bidding?"

"I wish you wouldn't be so brusque with me." Mito stated. "I see where you are coming from. Forgive me if I upset you." She sighed. "Perhaps I would like to be involved but haven't found a legitimate way to be."

"You will find your purpose one day. I promise you." Reina smiled. "Take it from someone who has had to climb to the top from rock bottom. You are not subjected to a forced union, and yet your future marriage to my brother symbolizes stability and peace for the Uzumaki clan and land of Whirlpools."

Mito nodded. "Is it really that important?"

Reina lowered her head, dreading a potential future her life may take. "You have no idea… the peace that can be held within a union." She looked up at Mito. "The day will come when you finally understand… and then you will find your purpose."

Mito looked at Reina with sympathy and concern. "Are you alright, Reina? I am sorry if I brought up a personal subject."

Reina shook her head. "No, it's not that. I am grateful for the trials I have been through… I am grateful to have Madara as my partner." She smiled up at Mito, not wanting to further the conversation. "It's just better to be more calculating when discussing these things. Emotional turmoil brings nothing but negativity, especially when it isn't necessary." Reina cleared her throat. "That and to be honest, this pregnancy has me going through various highs and lows. I'm not sure how to feel sometimes. That and half the time I'm too tired to hold a conversation as I normally would."

Mito chuckled. "I see. Well, I apologize for intruding on your down time."

Reina waved her hand. "I am sorry for being terse. It really isn't a big deal if you're here or not. You're always welcome as my future sister in law."

Mito bowed. "Thank you." She took another sip of her tea. "I recognize you've been busy, but you really should allow yourself to get out and have a good time once in a while. Balance is important."

Reina sighed. "You're not wrong. And with the baby it'll take up even more time."

"Did you want to have a night out tomorrow?" Mito inquired. "Or whenever you aren't busy? It'll be just the two of us! We'll have a great time."

Reina thought to herself. "I don't think I have anything going on tomorrow."

"Then it's a date!" Mito giggled to herself while standing up. "I'll swing by tomorrow around eight."

Reina stood up with her. "Sounds good." She walked Mito to the entryway and gave her a goodbye hug. "Safe travels back home. Oh, and please tell my brother to stop being so emotional."

Mito rolled her eyes. "You know how that will go." She laughed. "Good night, dear." Mito bowed and then took her leave.

Reina shut the door and then sighed in frustration. "I don't wanna go out tomorrooooooow…" She groaned to herself.

"It's important to socialize."

"You're only saying that because I am the only person you can talk to." Reina retorted.

"Yes, and it is hell."

Mito quietly stood in the bathroom alone, her hands resting on the sink countertop. She couldn't shake how cold Reina was. Never had she been so icy towards her. Even when she was younger and shy, she was quiet and timid, but never standoffish. Mito could feel tightness in her chest at the thought of Reina becoming distant toward her. Yes, it made her feel better that Reina apologized, but she couldn't help that feel like something was missing. She dodged her question and wasn't transparent with her. There was something about Reina that she could not understand, and that pained her.

"Are you coming to bed, Mito?" Hashirama called in a muffled voice from the other side of the door.

Mito gasped as she was ripped from her thoughts. "Yes! I'll be right out!" She quickly combed her hair before exiting the bathroom. She stepped out to an empty room when she felt herself being picked up from the ground. "Hashirama!" She squealed.

Hashirama placed her onto the bed and climbed on top of her, giving her a gentle kiss. "I'm sorry, you just seemed tense."

A faint smile splayed across Mito's face. "Just a little."

"Can I help with that?" Hashirama kissed down her jawline.

Mito sighed into his kiss. "M-maybe…" She closed her eyes and relaxed her body as she felt his hand slide into her silken shorts. Mito's eyes shot widened as she gasped in delight.

The next evening, Reina had her curly, wavy dark hair down with two strands made into a loose crown on either side of her head that tied in the back. She had on a floor length black, off the shoulder dress that hugged her body down to her hips where it then flowed loosely. There was a long, thigh-high slit on either side of the dress. She wore a pair of black heels with it to give her a height boost. To break up her dark outfit, Reina put a bright, magenta lipstick on.

Reina walked downstairs and tapped on Madara's office door. "Honey, I'm going to be leaving soon!"

Madara slid open his office door, and eyes Reina up and down. "Wow…"

Reina giggled. "Wow?"

Madara nodded while checking her out more. "Yeah… Wow." He yanked her into the office and swiftly sat her on top of his desk.

"Madara!" Reina said with a growing grin. "What do you think you're doing?"

"I think you know exactly what I'm doing." Madara pilled her hair to the side and kissed down her neck.

Reina shuttered and spread her legs for him. "Mmm, you're so dirty."

Madara pulled her underwear aside and began rubbing her clit. "You think you can just dress in front of me like that and not expect to get fucked?" He whispered seductively in her ear.

Reina bit her lip. "I wish I would've known sooner, or I'd dress like this all the time."

Madara felt her opening and slid one finger in. "You're already so fucking wet."

Reina moaned. "You think you can just exist in front of me and not expect me to get wet?" She smirked as she threw his words back at him.

In turn, Madara slid two fingers inside her and began fingering her g-spot rapidly. "Oh, you're fucking sexy." He said as he watched Reina moan and squirm in her high heels.

Reina took in a sharp breath as she came close to cumming. "Oh, baby, just give me that cock." She said while craning her head back in pleasure.

Madara did as told and dropped his pants. His dripping cock sprung and he positioned it at her entrance. Madara slid his cock into her dripping pussy and began pounding Reina's tight pussy. Reina panted as she felt her cheeks flush. Pressure built up inside her and she began bucking her hips as she came close to cumming. Madara fucked her at a steady rhythm until he read the clock. It was two minutes until eight and Mito was going to arrive any minute. Madara fucked her harder and faster, earning loud moans from Reina. He pulled the front of her dress down to reveal her bouncing breasts. Watching Reina in bliss brought him closer.

"Reina… I'm gonna cum…" Madara said through thrusts.

"Fuck yes! Me too. I'm gonna fucking cum!" Reina licked her hand and began slapping and rubbing her pussy. "Oh fuck yeah! Give it to me!"

Madara watched her masturbate herself and gave a few final thrusts before pulling out and busting his load all over her thigh. "Oh fuck! Ah! Reina…!"

Reina panted and pointed outside the door. "Wet towel, stat."

Madara pulled up his pants and quickly got Reina a wet cloth to clean her up. He spread her legs and wiped his cum off of her. He then took the towel and wiped her pussy free of cum, earning a moan from Reina. "Alright, all cleaned up."

Reina smiled and hopped off the desk, pulling her dress back up and adjusting her panties. "Thanks for the quickie."

Madara bent down to kiss her. "No, thank you."

Reina slapped his arm playfully. "And thanks for not cumming inside me."

"I thought you'd appreciate not walking around the village and leaving a trail." Madara joked.

The couple laughed when there was a knock at the front door. "Oh, good timing," Reina stated. "Well, I'm off."

"Go." Madara kissed her forehead. "Enjoy yourself."

Reina waved and shut his office door. She ran over to the entryway and opened up the front door. "Hello, Mito!" She smiled.

Mito grinned. "Hi, there!" She gave her a big hug. "Ready to go?"

Reina nodded. "Yep!" She grabbed her purse from a side table. "Onward."

Mito laughed as she watched Reina shut and lock their front door. "You seem chipper."

Reina blushed. "Oh, do I?" She shrugged. "I guess I'm just excited to hang out with my good friend."

Mito blushed. "Awe, stop it."

Reina giggled, and the two traversed into the Hidden Leaf Village. "So, where are we going?"

"Well, there is this new restaurant that specializes in small, shareable plates. I thought we'd grab a bite to eat. Then go window shopping… or shopping shopping."

Reina laughed. "I enjoy both of those things."

"Who doesn't?" Mito raised a brow.

"Crazy people?" Reina shrugged.

"But… we are crazy people," Mito stated humorously.

"Oh, I'm sorry. I've gone so insane that I've forgotten." Reina laughed.

Mito chuckled and grabbed hold of her arm to be friendly. "Anyway, then we can get more food."

Reina fisted the air. "Yes. I love more food!"

Mito laughed at her silliness. "And then we can go maybe sit by a lake or river and have a chat."

Reina nodded in approval. "I like it."

As the night progressed, the two women did exactly as planned. They had a light dinner, followed by window shopping. Mito watched as Reina pointed to various items she liked before infiltrating a shop. She thought Reina was adorable when excited. Her passion for her interest knows no bounds, and that was something Mito found magnetic about her. Mito watched as she paid for a new silk pajama set and happily swung her bag upon checkout.

"Woo!" Reina said as she waved the bag with glee.

"Someone's happy about their purchase." Mito smiled.

"I have always wanted a lavender silk pajama set." Reina grinned. "I'm so excited to wear it!"

Mito chuckled. "Anyway, are you ready for more food?"

Reina stopped dead in her tracks. "Is that even a question?" She looked Mito dead in the eyes. "Do you even know who you're talking to right now?" She joked.

Mito clasped her hands together. "Oh, Glutton Goddess Reina, could you ever forgive me for my sins?"

Reina pointed her nose into the air, pretending to be high and mighty. "Humph! Perhaps after supper."

Mito giggled, and the two began walking towards their next destination. After a few hours of shopping, they ate more food and eventually found themselves tired and full. Mito brought Reina to a secluded bench that overlooks a running river.

Reina sat down on the bench, dropping her bags onto the ground. "Oof! My feet hurt."

"Is it the high heels?" Mito inquired.

"That and my body has just been doing a thing lately." Reina shrugged. "Perhaps I'm getting old." She tilted her head up to look towards the stars.

Mito glanced over toward Reina and admired her presence. She was like the moon itself. A radiant beacon of light that turned tides and dwelled in darkness. Mito loved the way her wavy hair looked against her even skin tone. The dress complemented her figure, with the slit giving an enticing edge to her look. Mito's cheeks flushed, causing her eyes to widen and turn her head away.

"Do I… Do I like her?" Mito swallowed a lump in her throat and turned back to look at Reina.

Reina turned to look at her with the tilt of her head. When their eyes met, she flashed a confident smile. "This is nice, huh?"

Mito nodded. "Y-yes it is." She smiled and looked up at the stars. "I am so confused."

Mito was standing in her and Hashirama's bedroom while watching him undress in the dark room, barely lit by the moon. "I know I love him, and I am attracted to him spiritually, emotionally, and physically..." Mito felt herself being laid down onto the bed. Hashirama groped and squeezed one of her breasts while he bent down to kiss her. "Yes… I do…" She felt Hashirama rub her clit and slide a finger into her pussy. She moaned with her eyes shut as she felt his sensations on her body.

Mito was enjoying herself when the image of Reina glancing at the moon popped into her mind. "No…" She focused on Hashirama's touch again when Reina flashed in her head again. "Reina…" Mito thought back to when she glanced over to her. "Why do I…" She imagined her crawling across the bench and placing a hand under her chin. "Feel this way…" Mito moaned. "If I love Hashirama, then-" She imagined Reina touching her in all the places she felt pleasure. "Why do I feel sexually attracted to her?" Mito opened her eyes as Hashirama pulled apart and looked down at her. It was a momentous flash, but she could have sworn she saw Reina.

Mito simply looked up at Hashirama and cupped his face. "Hashirama…"

Hashirama smiled down at her, placing his hand over hers. "Mito…"

"I love you," Mito whispered. "From the bottom of my heart, I know it."

Hashirama smiled and bent down to give her a warm kiss. "And I love you." He said while grazing his lips on hers.
