章節 106: Chapter 106

He just smirks, as if pleased to hear her response. "That's just because you're a strong woman. Maybe I wasn't clear before when I said only the strong make perfect partners, but I like strong women. Unlike other guys, I still want you to be strong when you become my woman."

Ino isn't sure if he's aware how chauvinistic he sounds. Though recalling Tsume-san refer to a relationship as a possessive, 'my man,' Ino feels it's a clan thing more than anything intentionally disrespectful. Ino also wonders if someone is coaching him because it seems after every exchange where one of her responses stumps him, he returns with some form of counter-argument for that same point. It feels like bartering, like he's haggling to lower her patience, like a lower price, in hopes of wearing her down enough she finally feels too tired to say no.

With clear annoyance, she yells, "I'm not going to be your woman! I don't know who put you up to this but I don't love you. I don't even like you. How do you not understand that Sasuke-kun is the only one I love!" And to her great dismay, an image of Naruto looking deep into her eyes pops in her mind, tightening her chest. 'That's not the same,' her mind yells at the mental image. 'That's just new and physical and really good!'

Her resistance feels even weaker when Kiba replies, "Sasuke-kun doesn't have to be the only one you love."

With squinted eyes and at a complete loss, Ino asks, "W-what does that even mean?"

"It means you can love me too," he emphatically states, beating his chest. "You can love us both and then I'll prove to you I'm better than he is!"

Rolling her eyes, Ino retorts, "that's ridiculous! You can't love more than one person."

"So you'd rather young widows just give up after their man dies?" He hollers back with a bit of a smirk. Ino wasn't expecting that kind of insight from Kiba which truly makes her wonder who's helping him. "I know for a fact you can love more than one person! And besides, Sasuke didn't send you flowers!"

Unwilling to debate this and growing more frustrated, she simply argues. "You didn't send me those flowers either!"

"So," Kiba cackles waving the Cow Parsley. "Who's this other guy then? You think about him too?"

"That's none of your business," Ino shouts trying not to think about Naruto.

"Afraid Sasuke'll learn you don't love him as much," Kiba arrogantly suggests taking a confident step forward. "You know why this other guy wouldn't matter to me, Ino-chan? Because you're super hot. Other guys are supposed to want you. Luckily, I'm an alpha and I'll kick anyone's ass who thinks they deserve you more than me," Kiba states with the assertion of a pack leader.

Ino hates that she can't control her thoughts and force Naruto's face out of Kiba's point of view, responding, "look, I'm just not into you… like at all. So please, stop." Ino walks around him.

"Wait," he calls as he runs right back in front of her. "Come on, I get you want a strong man, but you know, the Chūnin exams are coming up. Kurenai-sensei has been working us really hard for it… like to the bone… like I'm a little scared of training with her right now."

"So, you probably need it," Ino replies, wondering if it had to do with Naruto. After all, Ino's been pushing her team to try harder so as to not be left behind. On top of that, it's empowering to know Kurenai-sensei believes in her future.

"So," he says with a wide grin. "If you need proof of how much better I am, fine. I'm a hundred percent sure Akamaru and I can beat anyone we face in the exam, which means I'll be the first one in our class to be Chūnin, and when you see me in my flat-jacket, you'll definitely want to be my woman then. I'm only saying we can start now and skip all that because I don't want you to feel like you missed out, is all."

With simmering anger as her driving force, Ino dubiously asks, "you actually think that's what I care about—who has the biggest muscles or the most chakra? How shallow do you think I am?"

"Oh get off your high horse," Kiba calls incredulously. "With a straight face, you're telling me if Sasuke was the Dead Last and failed everything three times, you'd still be into him?" Again, her mind flashes all sorts of images of the ultra-confusing Naruto. Stunned in silence, Kiba chuckles as he continues. "Even I'm not dumb enough to fall for that, but it's okay. There's nothing wrong with wanting the strongest, and when I beat everyone in the exams, you'll definitely want me too."

He extends the most unromantic flowers she could think of, repulsed not by them or even Kiba's arrogant advances, but by the question of her love for Sasuke-kun. The raven-haired Uchiha has always been so singular among everyone, she never really imagined him as common. 'Would I still love him if he was like Naruto?' Her mind is silent, wavering in a response that some months ago would've been a resounding, 'yes!' It makes her question why it is we love who we love. 'If I didn't love Naruto, why did I have so many intense orgasms with him? Why was that experience still an amazing memory?' she quickly wonders. Even now, her body automatically responds at the mere recollection of him.

Ino glumly walks around Kiba, finally returning home. After having a light dinner, she ascends to her bedroom, but rather than spend the time with her thoughts, Ino retrieves her vibrator. It's taken her some practice, but Ino's learning more about how to use the large toy to excite and satisfy her. Just recently she learned how simply grinding against it as she sped the tempo of her rolling waist up or down could bring her to an intense orgasm.

When she's sure her parents have gone to sleep, Ino turns on her large vibrating dildo. Having learned she likes being on her knees, raising her ass off the bed to let her juices trickle down her thighs, Ino's already growing excited. Her heart's beating fast and her skin feels hot when she begins to gently rub and tug her hardening pink nipple with one hand while simultaneously rubbing the head of the low shaking phallus up and down her leaking labia. She learned how much better it feels when everything is slick. With her face planted on the bed, a low moan escapes her open mouth as Ino slides the thick orange toy up and down the pink slit of her raised ass.

Feeling a good build to a fantastic orgasm, Ino raises the vibration as she speeds her phallus massage. When she's ready to slide her orange partner in her wet folds, a slight knock is heard against her door. Ino immediately shuts the vibrator off. While her mother hasn't found her toy yet, Ino's had enough near misses with the observant woman that makes her think it's only a matter of time until they have an awkward conversation. Fortunately, her mother is a trained psychologist and is likely to handle it well. Still, Ino remains motionless, just in case the sound was nothing.
