Although Naruto influenced Sumire's path and worldview, she remained the same, with one exception - her heart now belonged to him. But unlike simple love, these feelings were much stronger, one might even say - more distorted, but not in a depraved sense, but rather in her attitude towards him.
Sumire's light turned into a sincere affection, and the darkness into an obsession. Since these two sides balanced and complemented each other, her feelings were no different from the highest form of love, on the verge of unbridled fidelity. Although Naruto, experienced in such matters, did not perceive it as love, but rather as an attraction, dependence, or even passion.
For people with a demonic nature, there were two extremes: loneliness and obsession with something, or obsession with someone. Because of this, Sumire was ready for anything, but at the same time she could go against it, wanting to destroy all the threats that stood in her way to him.
Naturally, his detached attitude and not fully devoting himself to her alone, secretly did not satisfy that dark side hidden deep inside her.
Sumire could do anything for him, but do not flatter yourself, because the price of her obsession can threaten everyone around, especially those who are not lucky enough to stand between her and the object of her passion.
The current Sumire Kakei was the perfect balance between light and dark. She found her way and purpose in life, only the reality is that Naruto was not light, and when united with him, darkness gradually prevailed in the young kunoichi, and if it was not suppressed in time, in the end it could turn into a disaster. Even Naruto knew this and understood that the longer she was ignored, the more her anger would build up.
Sumire's shattered and dangerous psyche was prone not only to jealousy, but also to the most severe sadism, selfishness, and even cold-blooded murders. Moreover, she could kill not only enemies and rivals, but also harm herself...
Even in their first meeting, on the day Naruto decided to influence her, he knew that this connection would lead to one of two options: either Sumire would rise up and not let him lead her from the chosen path of someone else's revenge, or she would completely change direction and become obsessed with it.
But, at that time, how could he care about her future? Then he decided to take her no matter what, but now...
The Hokage may have put aside the trophies of the past, but women are not dolls, each of them had their own goals and selfish desires, and having contacted him, they naturally did not want to give in to others, and it was so easy to put up with their role as a mere toy for his fun. Only Tenten could accept this position, as she was aroused by the mere fact of being treated like that, but for the others, things are much more complicated, especially with Sumire.
If most women, gritting their teeth, could endure a lot and explode only as a last resort, then with Sumire an explosion is guaranteed with one hundred percent probability. She was a ticking time bomb.
Is it possible to interfere with a person with such a personality? Someone like her will do anything to get what she wants, and the more pressure, the sooner it will happen.
That is why Naruto called such a character - demonic. After all, ordinary people do not tend to give themselves up to something, ignore society, imposed rules and morality, even family and friends.
For such people, everything around is just steps or even chains that they would try to get rid of as soon as possible.
A real demon is able to kill the dearest person in order to free himself from the shackles. Of course, he will be hurt, he may even cry, but in this they differed from ordinary people. Who among them would have the heart to strangle the most precious thing, for the sake of their own obsession?
Sumire was just that, and he knew it. It's just that it's not fully developed yet. In the past, she wanted to get rid of her cargo in any way she could. She did this not out of love for her mother or respect for her father, but only for the sake of her own freedom. That's why she accepted Naruto so easily by changing directions.
But, it's not like he was particularly worried about her "awakening", even though such a development would certainly not please him... In part...
Who likes to see their things torn to pieces?
Even so, Naruto would still ignore it for a very long time. Perhaps if someone were to die, only then would he be able to intervene. That's how he was. And in this they were similar to her.
What's the point of wasting time on the past, even if it might bite you?
He most of all disliked doing something that bored him and did not bring him pleasure. Naruto wouldn't hesitate to kill anyone just to feel free...
But, because of Tsume, the value of Sumire increased, and therefore, realizing all the pros and cons, he took his step, but not out of a desire to pacify her and prevent bloodshed, but again, only because of the desire to enjoy more.
The next step required her presence...
Sumire didn't even suspect what was in store for her...
Naruto asked her to change and at the same time watched, but he did not say what would happen next ...
But even though she didn't know how valuable she was to him, and what his feelings for her were, Sumire still happily did everything to please him.
Even if she does not appreciate her as much as she does, even if she does not love him, even if in his eyes she is lower than his wife ... What's the difference? Sumire wanted to prove herself, wanted attention and closeness with him. Nothing about him could disappoint her. In this she also differed from many of his women...
Sumire had almost lost her temper after so many days without him, so as soon as he appeared, all the anxiety and sadness dissipated, and they were replaced by joy and excitement.
Although not understanding why he asked her to change into those clothes, she did so without question...
But the truth is, if he made a mistake now, it could really go wrong...
After all, if waiting is useless, does this mean that you need to act on your own?
