Chapter 2
"Now, before we start," Toneri motioned for the two man to sit across from him and snapped his fingers towards Hinata. She once again sat in his lap and avoided looking to the men sitting across from her.
She could feel the blond's stare and something inside of her was making her drift her gaze back to his amazing blue eyes.
From the moment he walked in she knew she had found the perfect candidate. He was tall, muscular but not in an exaggerated way, sexy as fuck and his tanned skin made his blue eyes even more beautiful. His blonde hair gave her DiCaprio vibes as he ran his fingers through it, trying but failing to tame it.
Her fiancé took notice of both the blond's and the raven haired man's stares and soon a fake smile had crept its way to his lips. He knew that most men found Hinata incredibly attractive and to see two of the most well known man in the city and the community itself, interested in his property gave his ego a boost. Since this was their first time in here, he chose to ignore the slip up, but if this kept going through the night, he wouldn't respond for himself.
"Gentlemen, I welcome you to my fine establishment. As you can see we usually opt for a black tie ambience while the Sub's clothing is up to you. Some of our customers choose to keep it casual and others prefer to stick to the classics." Toneri kept one of his hands secured around Hinata's waist while the other holding his champagne glass sung around to emphasize his words. "If you are to become members, depending of your contribution, your own accommodations will be provided, they can be later customized to your likings and preferences. You can also rent for the night the women or men we have available or you can later fill out some paperwork that will allow us to find you a submissive that fits your tastes."
As he kept rambling on, Hinata's eyes found their way towards Mr. Uzumaki and she felt her face reddening and heat in her lower regions. His lust filled look promised trouble, and this excited her. She had heard about him before and she was certain he would be the perfect Dom for her.
The man seemed to share the same opinion. Naruto noticed almost instantly a thirst that he hadn't seen in a long time. And for the first time ever, he contemplated the idea of stealing her from the white haired guy.
While Naruto listened to Toneri's explanation and formulated a plan to have some alone time with Hinata, he failed to notice that his best friend was having similar thoughts.
Sasuke was enraptured by her. He now understood Kiba's warnings and noticed the possessiveness of Toneri's actions. While Toneri tried to convey a laid back version of himself, Sasuke observed his body language and saw the white haired man stiffen every time either he or Naruto stared for too long at his Sub.
His Sub. A fucking joke. Both males caught through the deception almost instantly. That only spurred further both Naruto's and Sasuke's mind plans.
Hinata ignored the man next to the blond as if he didn't exist, until he finally spoke breaking off her daze. "Pardon the forwardness, but how long has she been your Sub?" Hinata felt Toneri's grip tighten once the Uchiha pointed at her, and she braced herself for his outburst, but it never came, which came as a surprise to her, making her frown for a few seconds.
Instead he took a deep breath and moved her off him as he adjusted his jacket and looked at Sasuke straight in the eyes. "Long enough for her to know who owns her."
Naruto felt the urge to say 'debatable' but decided to soothe the situation before things got out of hand and Sasuke ruined the chances of entering this club and his future alone time with the gorgeous woman in front of them. "Forgive my friend. It has been a while since he has had a good session and he is just eager to see what your club has to offer." Sasuke glared at Naruto but understood his actions. If this guy were that possessive of the girl, he would have to thread lightly to get what he wanted. So, he 'hn'ed and nodded, maintaining an emotionless expression.
His words seemed to calm the beast for now, but Hinata knew that tonight Toneri would be on the prowl for someone who resembled the man across from him. There was an awkward silence before she decided to speak softly to her fiancé. "Would you like for me to get you another glass of champagne, sir?" His response was to gulp down the rest of his drink and telling her to get something stronger.
"And while you're at it," he licked his lips and his icy glare settled on the Uchiha once more, who looked gloriously bored. His blond friend had a small smile and she sensed him giving her a once over once she got up. "Bring your two friends as well and, two drinks for my customers. Hurry up we don't have all night."
"Yes, sir." Hinata wanted to mock salute him, but she knew she had to behave tonight in order to impress the sexy blond Dom.
She knew things could turn sour very quickly, but she also knew he would be the perfect player to this little game. The bluenette could feel that his lust filled darkened eyes never left her figure as she walked away from the VIP area towards the bar, where her friends were trying to figure out what was happening. Hinata swung her hips in a sexy manner, as discreetly as she could as she felt a small smile form in her lips.
"Congratulations girls. This is your lucky night." Ino and Sakura refrained from giggling and adjusted their black latex dresses and followed behind their blue haired friend as she led them through the party who seemed to be in full swing.
Hinata knew that Ino had been one of the many Subs Mr. Uzumaki had had. Every time her blonde friend recalled her time with him, she had nothing but praises to give but, given her switch nature, their arrangement hadn't last long.
So Hinata had an idea of what she would be getting into if she indeed manages to find herself in a session with . She didn't care if he were sadistic or that sometimes he could get too intense. It only aroused her more as she imagined all the delicious scenarios they could get into.
The idea of giving herself completely to him, although very alluring, once she lifted her head and saw Toneri she remembered why she couldn't. It was the only reason that kept her trapped.
"Here you go, sir." Hinata said as she handed the whisky to her fiancé and kept her gaze down standing next to him, waiting for him to speak. Her friends did the same but kept quiet as they stood next to the two guys on opposite sides.
Sakura was next Sasuke while Ino had gone to Naruto's side, doing her best not to grin once she noticed the familiar look in her ex-Dom's eyes as he followed Hinata's every movement. A small part of her was happy for her friend, but something inside of her was warning her, that those two would be playing a very dangerous game. Ino tried to catch Sakura's eye but it was impossible since she was completely enamored by Sasuke Uchiha. Ino took a deep breath and tried to focus on her feet and thinking of a plan to get Hinata and Naruto together, even if it was just for a few minutes.
Sakura seemed oblivious to Sasuke's fixation on Hinata as she kept imagining different scenarios in her head. She was thankful for Ino choosing the blond, she figured Sasuke reminded her blonde friend of her last boyfriend.
Sakura knew everything about Sasuke. They had gone to the same college but different majors. Since the very first moment she had seen him she knew he was the one for her. In fact, he was the very reason why she decided to venture into the BDSM world in the first place.
"Now that I set all the rules down, these two ladies would be accompanying you towards the floor above, where we have some of our more private accommodations." Toneri placed his hand on Hinata's ass and started to make small soothing movements as he locked eyes with Sasuke, trying to establish dominance.
Hinata couldn't help but to roll her eyes at Toneri, she already knew what would be waiting for her once they got up to his penthouse. She started to think of all the vocabulary she could use to assure him that she was his and that the Uchiha couldn't even compare to him.
She saw that Sakura was overly excited at the prospect of having a session with said man but something told her that nothing would be happening tonight.
The blond got up and crossed the small space between the couches and moved to shake Toneri's hand.
"Unfortunately, I won't be able to stay much longer so I'll take up on your offer on another visit once I've filled out all of your paperwork."
Toneri forgot about Sasuke for a few moments as he smiled at the blond guy in front of him. He had been very polite and didn't seem as focused on his woman as his dark haired friend. "Tomorrow I'll send someone to deliver the forms to you. Goodnight Naruto." He shook Naruto's hand enthusiastically and went back to glare at Sasuke.
Toneri never saw the lust filled look he gave Hinata and didn't even see the wink he threw her and her cheeks flush a dark red in response to his actions.
As Hinata and Toneri made their way to their bedroom, he kept saying that he wanted to beat the shit out of that idiot and then fuck Hinata in front of him so that he could see who she belonged to. Toneri surprised her by leaving immeadiately for the penthouse instead of finding someone to unleash his anger.
Hinata seemed to be in a daze for the rest of the night. Her mind kept developing fantasies about Naruto Uzumaki. Even when Toneri ordered her to get on her knees and suck him, she imagined it was Naruto who told her that.
For the first time in months she felt heat pool in her lower regions as it hadn't in a long time.
She couldn't wait for what tomorrow would bring.
"Hey forehead! Watch where you're throwing!" Hinata watched as Ino got mad at Sakura once again for throwing the tennis ball out of the field. One of the bodyguards that accompanied her today, shook his head and went to retrieve the small object. "Seriously, why are you so wrapped up about that gloomy guy?"
"He's not gloomy!" The pink haired girl rushed to defend her crush and Hinata laughed at the exasperated face Ino made. "Hina take my place! I can't stand Ino-pig any longer." Sakura handed her the tennis racquet and she shook her head while walking towards where Sakura had been, amused by her friend's antics.
"At least Hina hasn't her head in the clouds as much as you." Ino balanced her racquet on her shoulder and grinned maliciously at her blue haired friend. "I heard you had a very interesting morning."
Hinata's cheeks flushed and she tried to hide her face with her cap but to no avail. Ino had heard about her encounter with Naruto this morning and had been badgering her about it ever since Hinata regretfully told her.
"Ino shut up." Sakura yelled and sat at the small bench where their bags were on. "You know damn well Hina won't spill the beans until she's ready."
"You know, I still have his personal phone number." The blonde ignored Sakura as if she wasn't there and focused on Hinata who was currently stretching before their game started.
"And why would I need it Ino?" The pale eyed beauty asked, clearly annoyed by her friend's double meaning.
"Oh, I don't know." She pretended to think about her friend's words for a while, before quipping. "Maybe to facilitate you guys sexcapades." Ino wiggled her brows at Hinata, who then rolled her eyes and got one of the extra tennis balls to start their game.
"Ino if you continue with that shit I'm aiming at your face." The girl answered, trying, and failing to hide her smile.
"As if, my dear." Ino got into position as well and told Sakura to monitor the time. "You want him. He wants you. Why not have some fun? The contract is coming to an end and soon enough you'll be rid of that white haired Christian Grey wannabe."
Hinata hesitated before throwing the ball, considering her friends words for a moment.
Ino wasn't wrong. If this mornings meeting meant what Hinata believed it meant, they shared the same feelings towards each other. But at the same time Hinata had a lot to lose if Toneri found out about them before the contract was over. This caused an internal conflict within Hinata.
As much as she was attracted to Naruto Uzumaki, she knew that although they could probably manage to have a secret relationship, they couldn't push their limits as much as they wanted cause that would include body marks and Toneri wasn't blind or stupid, not to notice them.
He was already reticent about admitting the Uchiha guy in his club, if he heard any whispers about something between Hinata and Naruto, she wouldn't just be risking her own life, but her family's as well.
"I've told you already not to get in between. This- " Ino interrupted her and motioned for her to throw the ball.
"It's for my own safety blah blah blah. I'm tired of watching you mope around every day." As they played Ino kept glancing at her pink haired friend who seemed to be daydreaming about Sasuke instead of monitoring the game. "Even forehead agrees. Even if it's just once. Don't you wanna risk it?"
Hinata scored another point and Ino crossed her arms, no longer interested in playing tennis. "I don't know. Better to leave things as they are for now."
"Hina, think about it. He could find someone else while you sit on your ass. You saw how Shion drooled once she heard about Naruto being one of the new members. And she's into the kind of shit he is so, if I were you, I'd secure my bag before it gets stolen."
Hinata came closer to the net that divided the tennis court and leaned on it while frowning. "Do you really think he'd settle for her?" The fear of possibly losing Naruto made Hinata think twice. She knew he wouldn't wait two years for her. No man in their right mind would.
But a small part of her wanted to believe he would. Wanted to believe that once she was free from Toneri, she would be able to become not only Naruto's Sub, but also his girlfriend. And who knew where that could lead them to.
Since the moment she laid her lavender eyes on him she knew. Something inside of her just knew that he was the one.
She was never one to believe in love at first sight, and she knew that what she felt towards the blond was infatuation and, a sense of freedom she never had before. But she could see herself fall in love with him. Ino had been telling her how sweet and caring he was, how he would make you feel like you were the most beautiful person in the world and make you feel safe.
And that's what she had been craving her entire life. Someone who would be able to take care of her, in every sense of the word, like no one ever did.
Hinata felt like crying. Mentally cursing the stupid contract Toneri had forced her father to sign, the damn party she attended when she was sixteen where she met him, and she lost everything.
Both Ino and Sakura realized the shift in Hinata's mood and Sakura hit her blonde friend with her racquet before turning towards Hinata and offering to pay for lunch.
"I think I'm just gonna go back to the penthouse girls." Hinata didn't feel like spending the rest of her free time out of bed. She just wanted to curl up in a little ball and sleep away the pain. "I'll call you tomorrow, okay?"
Ino felt guilty once she saw Hinata wave and walk away towards the black SUV where her bodyguards had already put her things.
Sakura placed her hands on her hips and said, "Now I feel guilty about doing what you asked me to." She turned her green eyes towards her friend's blue ones and watched as she sighted and composed herself.
"I forgot about that for a moment." She went with Sakura to pack their stuff and smirked at her childhood best friend. "You sure you got the right account?"
Sakura rolled her eyes at Ino and matched her mischief look and said, "Obviously, as far as I know there isn't anyone else named Naruto Uzumaki on your insta."
"Good." Sorry Hina but I'm just looking after you.
The car ride back to the penthouse was silent. Neither the man nor the woman who sat in the front seats spoke. She was grateful for their silence and offered them the day off, once she got inside the apartment.
She took a quick shower and threw herself to the bed. Sleep didn't come as easily as she wanted, so she allowed herself to bask in today's previous events.
FLASHBACK ON
Hinata had her tennis equipment ready to go and greeted her bodyguards, Karui and Shino as she got inside the black SUV.
"Ma'am if you don't mind, we'll make a quick detour to deliver some papers." Karui turned around in her seat and smiled at Hinata. She lifted her head from her phone and smiled back.
"Of course. And where is this detour taking us?" Hinata was once again distracted by her phone which kept buzzing with the income of messages from Sakura and Ino.
Karui exchanged looks with Shino, who looked amused and answered for her. "The hokage tower."
Hinata froze and snapped her head towars Shino. "And what papers do you need to deliver in the hokage tower?" She knew that Toneri knew some people there, but she couldn't seem to fathom why, or what kind of business her fiancé had there.
"One of the new club members who went there last night works there and said this was of utmost importance." Hinata almost dropped her phone. Her cheeks flushed as she asked the redhead in a quiet voice who this person was.
"Mr. Naruto Uzumaki, ma'am."
Holy shit. She felt like jumping with glee but contained herself and just gave her bodyguard a small smile. "Would you two mind if I deliver those in person?" Hinata crossed her fingers hoping they wouldn't refuse her request.
Shino looked amused and nodded at Karui, who then agreed with the condition they could stand outside the door.
Hinata laid her head back in the head rest and closed her eyes, body relaxed and a smile on her lips.
Once she got to the floor where Naruto worked, she realized he must be someone important since this floor was reserved for the Hokage and his closest personell.
Naruto's assistant gave her a quick tour while Naruto finished a meeting. Once they stood in front of his door, Konohamaru knocked and announced her presence. The brown haired eighteen year old smiled at her and closed the door after she entered the room. Leaving the two of them alone.
Naruto's head snapped up once he realized the girl that entered had yet to speak and once he saw who was standing a few feet away from him his demeanor changed. Gonne was the focused diplomat and there sat the bewildered man.
He couldn't wrap his head around the fact that the woman he had been craving was standing in front of him in a tiny dark blue tennis skirt and baby blue shirt to match. Her hair was up in a messy bun and her beautiful face was rosy from a blush that he no doubt caused.
Her lips parted to inhale some air and she stood still, waiting for him to speak.
"Are you going to stand there all day?" His cerulean blue eyes darkened, and he leaned forward resting his chin on his hands, motioning for her to move forward at the same time.
She tried to regain her voice once she shifted her attention elsewhere. He had his blazer drapped on one of the couches in the small sitting area on the right side of the room, the sleeves of his shirt were rolled up and the first few buttons where open. He seemed stressed and it was only ten in the morning.
Naruto rested back in his chair and drummed his fingers on his desk while he continuously looked her up and down, focusing mostly on her creamy legs and her breasts, that outfit she was wearing left little to imagination. Making him grin at her seductively.
"I'm sorry, sir." Hinata bowed her head down and took a couple more steps forward. "I came here to deliver you the paperwork you'll need fill, in order for Toneri to find you a suitable submissive." She noticed the amount of paperwork that he already had in his desk and her hands tightened on the dark folder she held.
"Does your master know you're here today?" His husky voice held a tinge of amusement as she shifted in her place. "As I recall you're forbidden of having any kind of interaction with the opposite sex, except for your Dominant, of course."
He stood and walked towards her. "And if I'm not mistaken, you're not to be touched, looked at and spoken to, as well." Hinata could feel him standing very close, behind her. If she were to take one step towards him, her back would collide with his chest.
"Yes, sir. You're not mistaken." She raised her head and her eyes focused on the floor to ceiling windows behind his desk. She could see the entire city from where she stood. She could bet that at sunset, the view was even more amazing.
"So, answer me this." Hinata's heart beat faster once she felt him lean down to speak in a low seductive voice in her ear. "Why is this beautiful off-limits woman in my office, alone for that matter, in an incredibly sexy outfit that showcases her body marvelously. If she's supposed to avoid this kind of situation?"
Hinata struggled to maintain her composure as breathing got more difficult. With every word he spoke she could feel herself getting more aroused. She closed her eyes and rubbed her legs together unconsciously.
"I figured you'd be pleased to-"
"Oh, I'm very pleased by your presence, don't get me wrong. But it just makes me wonder if your Dom knows you're here, or if you're purposely doing this to be punished by him."
"If only he would." She was so distracted by his voice that she didn't notice what she had said until she felt him stiffen behind her. The playful mood he had been in before was gone.
"What did you just say?" His voice was authoritative, and she could sense that he was getting angry. She cursed herself. Of course she would speak the wrong thing, at the wrong time, ruining the mood.
Her eyes opened wide and her head snapped up. She was struggling to form a cohesive sentence. "I-I-I'm so-sorry, s-s-sir. I-I did-d not m-me-mean to anger y-you, s-sir."
Naruto was so lost in his thoughts that for a moment he forgot about the girl in front of him. Once he heard her stutter, he took a deep breath, calming himself down. He knew from some of his friends in the community that Toneri was more of a spoiled kid than anything else, and that he didn't treat his submissive as it was custom. Many referred to him as a joke and he remembered Temari and Gaara calling him a Christian Grey wannabe.
"I'm not angry at you, my dear." He reached his hand towards the folder she was holding and felt his fingers briefly touch hers. Hinata froze for a second and felt the change in the atmosphere once more. "You do realize that if you're not happy with your current situation, you can always find a new person to satisfy your needs."
"Y-yes, I-I'm a-aware of that, sir."
"Happy to hear that." He faced her, while leaning on desk and threw the folder behind him towards the organized mess of paperwork. "So, he doesn't know you're here."
"No, sir." She avoided looking directly at him, cause she knew once she did her cheeks would turn a darker shade of red, and she wasn't even sure if that was possible. Embarrassment was written all over her face, but Naruto needed answers.
"So you're here at your own free will?" His signature smile found its way to his lips and he lifted her chin with his left hand. "Eyes up here darling."
She breathed in deeply and did as he asked. Desire between them was palpable and the hand he still had on her chin didn't help the growing heat in her loins.
"Yes, sir."
"Interesting." His hand moved to her waist, pulling closer to him. Stumbling a bit, her hands were now on his chest and she had to lean her head back in order to meet his eyes. She tried to ignore the fact that their bodies were touching but his sent seemed to overpower her. "Hinata, are you collared?" Her head was foggy. His touch felt amazing as he skimmed his hands on her sides, finding their way towards the underside of her skirt.
He smacked her ass once, since she didn't answer him right away and Hinata released a breathy moan.
Finding her voice once again, she answered him. "N-Not exactly, s-sir." He made circular motions with his hand, soothing the area he hit and lowered his mouth to her ear. He could feel her softly panting against his neck and smiled once more.
"Explain." He smacked her once more, close to the spot he had hit before, while waiting for her answer. Her shy demeanor only aroused him more, and if they kept going like this he wouldn't restrain himself and would probably take her right here.
But he needed to control himself and focus on what he was doing.
"H-He never really liked the idea o-of me wearing such t-th-thing." He moved his hand back towards her waist, while the other touched the exposed skin of her collarbones. Touching the necklace, he stared at her beautiful lavender eyes. Her lids dropped a bit once he spoke again.
"Would you like to be collared, Hi-na-ta?" The way he pronounced her name made a shiver run down her spine and she nodded with a small smile on her face.
His hand caressed her face and once he was about say something in response, his assistant knocked on his door and informed Naruto through it that he had to go to the Hokage's office now, to help deal with a problem.
Naruto loosened his hold on Hinata's body and announced to Konohamaru that he would be there in a minute.
"Seems like we'll have to finish this conversation some other time." His hand was still holding hers and Hinata bit her lower lip as Naruto raised their hands and kissed hers gently.
Hinata's pink cheeks reddened once more and she mentally cursed both the Hokage and the blond's assistant before crossing her arms behind her back and smiling towards Naruto.
"I'll make sure to hand Toneri the documents before the weekend." He winked as he put his black blazer back on. "It was very nice to see you Hi-na-ta."
There he was. Once again. Saying her name like that. She was this close to melt in front of this gorgeous man. Her panties were soaking wet and once she noticed the bulge in his pants her smile grew a bit.
It appears my presence affects him more than I originally thought. She had to bit her lip down harder to prevent a grin from splitting her face.
"Thank you, sir. I'll pass on the information." She bowed her head before leaving his office. Her bodyguards escorted her back to the car.
Both had knowing smiles on their faces. She hadn't smiled like this in a very long time.
The rest of the drive was quiet.
They stopped once more in front of another building, but Hinata was so distracted by what had happened minutes ago, that she didn't even heard when Karui said she'd be delivering the same paperwork to Sasuke Uchiha.
Hinata's mind kept thinking on the what if's. What if his assistant hadn't interrupted? Was the one that kept repeating inside her mind.
She released a happy giggle and her hand clenched her the fabric of her shirt directly above her heart until they arrived at the tennis court. Once Ino saw Hinata's happy mood, she knew something had happened.
"You won't believe what just happened." Hinata squealed with joy as she recalled the mornings events to her blonde friend who soon matched her energy and laughed, happy for her.
FLASHBACK OFF
Hinata smiled and rubbed the spot where Naruto smacked her and she released a small laugh. All gloominess forgotten, Hinata took a nap, dreaming of a very seductive blond bending her on his desk and ravishing her body until she forgot who and where she was.
