Very FEW THINGS gnawed a savage's Saint's God-graced patience more than a man who had yet to learn and abide his rightful place ( verily , the step beneath - not beside - his woman , the stone upon which sets the foundation for her esteemed mantle & sustains her bloodline— ).  And he - this incorrigible , unworthy boy , he - is just such a man that's not quite understood his position.  Nor her own.  His flippant arrogance , the feigned innocence that skews his features to don a fake smile to m o c k her , is enough to make the rot in her veins BURN WITH IRE , putting a fervor in her the likes of which she's not felt in a long time ( too long , if she was honest ).  And — OH .  If that is not a worrying symptom of … Becoming , reviving , then she is not sure what would be ( indeed , she fears if it could be at all ).

❝ Are you so very clueless ? ❞  She snarls , unable to keep temper.  She strides up to him , invading his space , looking d o w n at him , eyes shimmer-sharp like blade-steel , narrowed and fixed upon him like festering MEAT which brings a sneer to her face.  ❝ Kindness and generosity have little to do with it.  A marriage IS a contract as much as a bond , you recalcitrant cuck !  Learn your place to be , or so help me , I shall beat it into you like the stupid mongrel you are — ❞  So much for affection , huh ? ❝ — Ugh.  Nevermind.  We still should remember that your Clan will be keeping a c l o s e eye on our progress.  They shan't believe this scheme if we do not give them the effort.  Understand ? ❞ 

Naoya could see through the facade, and, his grin just widened. It was delicious. This didn't benefit her in any way, unless she was just trying to get into the Zen'in Clan, and he seriously doubted that was the case. Not that he cared about what benefited her or not, because what benefited a woman didn't concern him, but it was still a pleasant sight to behold.

Oh, how quickly women could buckle with just the right man in their lives. And, Naoya's ego was boosted a bit higher by that notion. It seemed like majority of women wanted to serve a man in some capacity.

He decided to give a fake, soft smile instead, one of a false innocence that fooled absolutely no one.

❝ Sure, sure. Believable. Benefit us both. How kind and generous of you to include me in your "contract." Not that I blame you. ❞

He really didn't. He was meant to lead, to be the clan head of one of the strongest, most powerful clans in Japan. Plus, he was genuinely handsome. And, he knew it. How could he not? So, he just nodded along with her, letting her deny her attraction to him so he could gloat about it later.

Near a lifetime imprisoned within a cursed tomb and her reward was not only freedom , but a vested return ( with interest ).  Still shunned , exiled from Sorcerer society yet , in all surprise , granted asylum by the Zen'in clan under ( false ) pretense of being absolved , removed from once-ways and penance paid in full.  Lo' what better way to prove herself penitent than by offering herself as a suitor to their ( dis ) honorable son ?  Perhaps she's personally nothing to gain , no , but HE HAS EVERYTHING TO LOSE .

❝ Perish the thought ! Do not flatter yourself and insult me ! ❞ She scoffs , head tossing , features taking on a look of disdain and feigned displeasure ( one rather familiar by now , to be sure ).  But the faint flicker in her eye betrays her , the lost light restored for briefest moment , softening sharpened edges to something nigh resembling begrudging fondness.  ❝ I am merely doing this as it benefits us both , ❞ She permits herself a smile , her head inclining to him slightly , ❝ Your ego deserves no reward.  Just be aware , this is a contract.  It must be mutual.  And we must make it … BELIEVABLE . ❞  Sounds like a warning ( one which ought be minded ).

This was a new experience, an interesting situation, but he wasn't against it. It would get the Elders off his back. Satoru-kun was a year older than him, yet he doubted that the Elders were hounding him about marriage. It irritated him, because women, typically, weren't worth the concept. Very few women these days knew their place, knew how to be a woman, a wife. So, why would he bother? And, he knew being with a man wouldn't work either.

A man weaker than him was no different than a woman, in his eyes.

So, this was the best option, which was fine by him. He got the benefits of marriage without actually being married. They'd have to do the whole ritual, but that's fine. She would be able to do her own thing, and, he could focus more on his own goals. This "marriage" would work for his benefit.

He grinned, staring at his 'fiance'. ❝ Knew you were soft on me. ❞
