This was it. You & Gojo’s clans would be merged with an official marriage contract all thanks to the heads of your clans
Neither of you had a choice.
Many women would be smiling ear to ear for the chance to even meet Gojo, let alone marry…
It meant a world of wealth, access to exclusive places, and protection
But…you also knew it meant a target on your back from rival clans. it meant more danger and possible isolation
Not to mention, you two were once childhood friends…but when Gojo was 7, he was swept away by his clan…left to be stuck in books and training for most of his younger years
it was like marrying a stranger…
Many sat in the background, including yours and Gojo’s parents, along with the heads of your clans
You sat in your all white shiromuku. hair pinned with expensive jewelry and makeup done
you could barely move really. everything was tight, but…it was nothing compared to the moment & what they’d expect after
Gojo had already said his “I do”…while doing the other traditions of the wedding
PRIEST: My lady? Do you take Lord Gojo as your husband?
You came back from your thoughts…speaking out a “I do…” faintly knowing somebody else would’ve said it for you
…either that or death would come
Many praised and clapped like it was two lovers and not strangers going into marriage, but now…there was no turning back. you were the new heiress of the Gojo Clan…
——————————————————
After many gifts, arrangements, meetings, & overly tiring event, you and Gojo were led to private quarters
You both knew they wanted to encourage having a child as soon as possible—it was evident from the champagne, flowers, chocolates, and erotic clothings and items left in the room
it was all too much…
But Gojo didn’t even pay it any mind as he undressed behind the vanity. a faint light showing his outline
He was all smiles during the event, but…you could tell it was all fake from him. he hated being told what to do…
Gojo:…why didn’t you say no?
His voice was soft. Not upset, but…curious of your answer. You hated his clan truly…because of how they treated him as a weapon, but..you knew silence would not be an answer right now
