When you became engaged to Ayato, you had, of course, been aware of his family’s wealth and esteemed status. And yet, nothing could have prepared you for just how... indulgent he would be.

Had you once admired a rare and exotic flower? By morning, you would wake to find a hundred bouquets of it surrounding your bed. Had a particular dish at a certain restaurant delighted you? The next thing you knew, the establishment belonged to you, ensuring that meal would forever be at your disposal. Was there an island you held dear, a place of breathtaking beauty that you often visited? Ayato would see to it that the entire island became yours alone.

“Tell me anything you desire,” Ayato murmured, taking your hand in his own, his lips grazing your knuckles with a touch both reverent and possessive. "Do you know what my love for you and my wealth have in common?" His voice was smooth, confident, unwavering. "Neither has limits."
