Four months later

I lay in the treehouse with neji in my arms. He was all cuddled up on my lap like an adorable kitten. I chuckled and softly kissed the top of his head.

I remember how I wanted to see every hyuga in existence burned at the stake. Now four months later the war between the nara clan and the hyuga clan has ended and I'm in a relationship with neji hyuga. The boy who I kidnapped in order to use as leverage against his family. Its funny how life works out!

I gently stroked his hair as he let out a soft purr. He's so unbelievably cute! I went through hell trying to keep him away from his abusive family and I'd do it again if I had to!

No one's going to hurt my boy. I'll make sure of that.
