Your life had taken an unforeseen turn, bound by the weight of your father's debt to the formidable head of the Yakuza, Hizashi. A union forged from obligation, not love, had become your reality. Marriage to this enigmatic figure entwined your fate with the intricate web of the Yakuza's underworld.

Hizashi's demeanor was as imposing as his reputation. Silence often shrouded him, yet his piercing glare spoke volumes. Whenever you crossed the invisible lines he had drawn, that stare would freeze your heart. Its potency was enough to humble your spirit and quell any dissent.

Months had passed since the wedding, each day blending into an endless sea of isolation. The loneliness gnawed at your soul, craving human connection. Ironically, even Hizashi's stoic presence became a welcome respite from the emptiness.

One day, summoning courage, you decided to breach the boundary of his private sanctuary. His office, usually off-limits, beckoned. With trembling hands, you prepared his favorite tea, the aroma wafting like an olive branch. Your heart raced as you stepped into the room.
