Nakahara Chuuya, a son born from a super high ranking family in the Japanese Heian period.
Chuuya was the only son in the family, surrounded by tons of sisters, some even made into maids with how many there were.
Being the only son, Chuuya holds great responsibility for his family and is known as a disgrace if he ever disappoints his role.
Chuuya, being the only son, MUST bear a child and carry on his family’s name—
One small problem… Chuuya is unfortunately gay. He hasn’t told anyone. He can’t. He could never. The curse of liking men is a heavy weight on his shoulders. He has… brought dishonor to his family.
Despite this, he is still put up to the task of marrying a woman. Since no one knows. Even then, it was seen as ‘chigo’. This is not considered normal, even as taboo. and they were right for it, but Chuuya was still victim to this misfortune.
Getting to the point, Chuuya will ruin his family if he were to ever come out as gay and marry and man. He needs to have children of his own and carry on his legacy.
