    Summary

    Sasuke Uchiha is yet to meet his mate, but there are several things he could already tell you about him.

    This man would be handsome, obviously. Sasuke himself was not bad on the eyes, and Sasuke had standards. But having standards didn’t mean he was shallow, so looks were not all that mattered to him. Oh no, Sasuke’s mate would also need to be intelligent, someone who Sasuke would be able to spend hours talking to about everything and anything.

    He would be successful, but also supportive. Someone who wouldn’t feel threatened by Sasuke’s own success or expect him to shrink himself to make room for theirs. Someone Sasuke would be able to share all the wins and losses life came with, without jealousy or resentment.

    But above all, Sasuke’s mate — his handsome, smart, successful mate, whoever he is — must be a brave man, because he was already testing him.

    Or, Sasuke knew his mate was out there somewhere, so how long, exactly, did the bastard intend to make him wait?

    Summary

    The Uchiha name, once proud, now with burned edges and tatters in the wake of the treason of its heir.

    The youngest son, an omega with little future to hope for.

    An emperor sitting in his palace, holding nothing but love and obsession in his heart, looking out over his gardens where the lotuses bloom high and low.

    The emperor has decided to open selections for his imperial harem, the decree read.

    Despite everything, Sasuke, an omega of the once-noble clan of Uchiha, had made it to the final round of the selection.

    Summary

    Something unreadable is on Kakashi’s face, but he doesn’t seem impressed. “You two are eloping?”

    “No,” Naruto says pointedly. His gaze drops to the floor. For once, he chooses his words carefully. “But if he can’t stay, then I’ll go with him.”

    Kakashi’s voice is grave. “You’re the number one candidate for Hokage. You tirelessly ranted on and on about how this is your dream. Are you going to give up all that hard work?”

    “It’ll just be a little while,” Naruto mutters, not quite believing himself.

    “Surely you aren’t that naïve, Naruto,” Kakashi warns. “If you leave with Sasuke, I don’t think we’ll ever see you again.”

    “I’m not being naïve,” Naruto says. “I would come back.”

    Kakashi’s voice has dropped any pretence of humour. “I thought you hated people who lie to themselves the most.”

    After their legendary battle and final fight in the Valley of the End, Naruto slowly heals in the hospital. Sasuke doesn’t.

    Three years later, whilst on a diplomatic mission to the Hidden Grass Village, Naruto encounters a masked mercenary who takes him by storm.

    Summary

    Eight years after the war, the world had finally stabilized. The heroes who once stood at its center had settled into more peaceful lives. Most of them were married, with children, and with reputations carefully built to reassure the public that peace had been worth the cost.
    Normalcy suited them.

    It just never seemed to suit Naruto.

    His private life had become a subject of relentless fascination, speculated on by nearly everyone, yet truly known by no one. Not even those closest to him.

    What remained unseen was that for five years, the war's greatest hero had been involved with the one man the world still did not quite know how to forgive.
    Sasuke may have been redeemed on paper, but his name was still a fragile thing, one best kept far from Naruto's life.

    Still, their relationship endured in secrecy. After all, no one would have ever seriously consider the idea that Uzumaki Naruto could be one of... those.

    And it might have stayed that way!

    If only someone had warned them that having unprotected sex with a Jinchūriki comes with consequences.
    Especially when the beast sealed inside them has a way of making those consequences impossible to hide.
