Tenten mulled over his words for a moment before clarifying, "you said if Zabuza was your only master. What did you mean by that?"
"For ryo, Zabuza-sama would certainly order you to kill, cheat, and everything in between," Haku begins to casually answer. "However, Zabuza-sama is not my only master. The reason why I won't order you to betray your comrades or kill unnecessarily is because Naruto-sama would undoubtedly be disappointed in me if I did. It's not his way, which means it's not my way."
Shaking her head in disbelief, Tenten asks, "how's that possible? I mean, Naruto and Zabuza are polar opposites. How can you possibly balance what they both want from you?"
With all his heart, Haku warmly answers, "it's possible because I love both men, and to my everlasting joy, they care about me enough to be… considerate. Or I'm just really lucky."
Seated opposite from him, Tenten doesn't feel fortunate with her masters, shrugging as she mumbles, "yeah…"
Extended a proverbial olive branch, Haku affirms, "your father's actions may be the reason you're in this situation, but you shouldn't believe he'll die if you don't do as I command." She looks him in the eye as he incidentally adds, "he'll only die if you attempt to go back on your word. I'll be demanding everything of you and I expect you to do everything you're capable of. Keywords; capable of. As in, what's in you to do. We'll learn who you are. Of that, I have no doubt. Do you understand?"
Tenten slowly nods in resignation before asking, "how will I have time for everything? What about my team, my missions, and the store? I have to close in the mornings as it is just to do missions, then I spend the rest of the day here trying to earn enough to keep the lights on and afford food-"
"You mean take-out?"
"I don't exactly have time to cook," she returns.
"I suppose," Haku agrees, looking around the part living room, part kitchen. "Have a little more faith in your master, Tenten-chan. I've given the logistics of this situation a fair amount of thought. First, I will be moving here with you-"
Blushing from neck to forehead, Tenten points out the widely questionable, "b-but you're a boy-"
"And your master," he responds, adding, "who's interested in nothing more than your success as my tool." Losing her modesty, Tenten tried not to take offense to that as he explains, "I'd rather not leave Naruto-sama's side, especially with his precious person coming home from the hospital today and his clan coming together, but shaping you into a proper tool is for the best. I'll have to commute every meal period to prepare their meals so be prepared to join me if the situation arises; dinners for instance."
"If you have to go back so often, you might as well stay there," Tenten argues. "Otou-san taught me everything I need to know so I'll be fine. I'm just saying I don't have a lot of time, is all."
"Staying here will also allow me to watch the store when you're away, as well as give me a base to sell my herbal medicines from," Haku reveals. "Additionally, with Iruka-san returning home and Karin-chan living there, Naruto-sama will likely have more privacy here."
Flushing red once again, Tenten groans, "ugh, you mean- him and me-" With the heavy thought of sex widening her browns, she asserts, "I- I don't think I can-"
Haku leans forward, looking into the girl's large brown eyes as he softly states, "Tenten-chan, I've already said this'll be uncomfortable for you and that I'll still demand it anyway. The next time you feel the need to protest, honestly ask yourself, 'would I commit seppuku to escape the shame of my immoral actions?' If the answer is no, keep the complaint to yourself."
"And if the answer is yes," Tenten dares ask.
"Then I expect you to carry out your intent," Haku easily responds. "As my tool, we don't do half-measures and we don't go back on our word."
"Fine," she huffs. "So when are you forcing me to h-have s-sex with… with…"
Looking at the girl with a bit of disappointment, Haku asks, "you can't even say it?"
"It's embarrassing!" Slapping her hands on the table, she vehemently asserts, "I've never even kissed a guy before and you expect me to just have sex! With someone I don't even love! That's just too much!"
"That's reasonable," Haku agrees. "We'll start with full-body massages then. You'll be training a lot more with me so receiving massages from him will be beneficial to your muscle recovery. I'll speak to Naruto-sama later today-"
"What are you going to tell him," she interjects before pointedly noting, "and how's he okay with all of this? Does he approve of raping-"
"For the last time, Tenten, your selfish actions put you here," Haku quickly retorts, standing sharply to his feet. He's not an angry person by nature, but he will not allow her to vilify Naruto. Looking down at a surprised Tenten, Haku maintains, "I won't allow you to escape your responsibilities by claiming to Naruto-sama you had no hand in this. Of course, I can tell him every single detail about the deal you agreed to, and knowing him as I do—how good he is—he would never participate in any sexual acts with you. Naruto-sama would undoubtedly try to help you in some way, leading to a strong possibility of fighting Zabuza-sama again. I would not like that. It wouldn't be ideal, but, that's simply who Naruto-sama is. Zabuza-sama, on the other hand, wouldn't appreciate you going back on your word and considering the agreement you made with him-"
"Alright, alright, I get it," Tenten huffs.
