With a sigh, Ichiryu hung up the phone as he dropped his head. Sani's jet was seen coming. He just didn't know how well this was going to go and hoped that Sani would agree to it at least for the year that he was suggesting. He had his suspicions about this deal itself, but the lure of ingredients that could boost them was worth it. Especially if they could get to them before the Gourmet Corp.

Looking up at Nayuki, he sits back in his chair. "Are you absolutely sure that you want Sani for this? He is a good kid, but not exactly the kind of person to think that anything with marriage and what comes hand in hand with that is 'beautiful' you know. He may dig his heals in and not do it, regardless of what I say. Coco would actually be much better suited for this."

Shaking his head no, Nayuki smiled as he glanced back at his daughter who sat just behind him with her head bowed. "I am sure that my daughter and I could help convince him. My daughter is beautiful and that alone should make it worth it for him. She is a prize for anyone, even any of the Heavenly Kings."

He then turned his eye around and glared into Ichiryu's glaring eyes as he sighed. "Of course you better do all you can to make sure he does it. If he doesn't do it before I leave, you won't get access to the ingredients that you want access too. And my family literally has the last of the ones you want."

Though he wanted to smart off to that, he didn't really have a chance to do it. The private elevator to his office opened and he turned to see Sani walking toward them with his arms crossed and his eyes closed. "It is good to see you Sani. Thank you for coming. Have a seat." He then gestured for the seat that was closest to him.

As he moved to the chair to sit down, Sani smiled as he sighed. "It wasn't a problem really. I was on my way to life and this place isn't that far out of the way." Opening his eyes as he gave a sly smile, Sani uncrossed his arms and put one hand in his lap and the other on the arm of the chair. "What is it that you wanted me for anyway?"

"First of all Sani I want to introduce you to Nayuki and his daughter Saya. He is a potential business partner of the IGO. Once the deal is set, it will allow me to have access to some very rare ingredients that they have. The one thing that the deal is missing is what he wants for her." Closing his eyes as he crossed his arms, Ichiryu nodded. "He wants a marriage arranged with Saya and one of you Kings."

Glancing back and giving the girl a look, Sani couldn't deny that she was beautiful. Well from what he could see of her. He wished he could see her face but she kept it down. But it was her body language that told him something was off about her. Turning back to Ichiryu, Sani kept his smile as he nods. "So you want me to go and get Coco for you then?"

Fixing Sani with a glare that he hadn't had to give him since he was a child and he took him in. Ichiryu had to make this deal. It was more important than he could really tell Sani right now. Folding his hands before his face he sighed. "No Sani he wants her to marry you." Just as he started to open his mouth, Ichiryu held his hand up to stop him from talking. "Sani I know how you feel about the concept of marriage, but I am still asking you to do this. I don't ever ask much of you Sani. So humor me just this once and shut your mouth and do this."

With a glare, Sani was actually taken back some. He hadn't been talked to like that by him since he was young. But marriage was not something that he wanted ever. The concept of what you have to do after the ceremony was just cringe worthy to him. And children were just revolting to him. 'He has got to be kidding? I am not doing this! No way!'

Clearing his throat, Nayuki pulled two sets of glaring blue eyes to him as he met Sani's eyes. "Son the only requirements that I ask for, is that you are seen in public a few times acting the part of a happily married couple, with your rings on. And that you consummate the marriage only one time. And it only has to last for one year and then you can be on your way if you wish then. Other than those things, I don't care what the two of you do in the next year."

Sani glared at him with even more rage than he did when he looked at the old man. Out of the corner of his eye he saw the girl tense and start shaking. Moving his feelings to her, she was warm, her muscles were tense and her heart raced. She was terrified! Was it the arranged marriage that her father wanted right now? Or was it something different?

With a sigh as he crossed his arms and closed his eyes, Sani turns his head from them all. "It isn't her. It is just that I have a problem with the part of consummating the marriage. That is a less than beautiful act."

Her eyes darting up when she heard that, Saya could see the rage that was building in her father's eyes. Paling she had to do something. If not one of the Heavenly Kings, then he was going to take her to the Gourmet Corp! The only thing he wanted was power and the ability to do anything that he wants with ingredients and would stop at nothing to get it. The thought of being forced to bed by Starjun scared her!

Moving she stood and gave them all a bow as she pulled all eyes to her. "I am sorry to interrupt. My name is Saya. I promise you that if you were to agree to doing this, I would do all I could not to embarrass you. It would be an honor if you would."

His feelers now on her father too, the fear she had was from him. Not from Sani himself or Ichiryu. Looking at Nayuki, he didn't like the glare that he had for his daughter. He may not like marriage, but there was for sure something abusive about that man. He was looking at her like she just killed another human for no reason. Clearly and with the glare he could feel from Ichiryu there was going to be no getting out of this.

Finally he stands up and walks over to Saya. "Don't bow to me. What did you say your name was?"

Standing up as she looked up into his eyes, Saya couldn't believe just how handsome he really was. "My name is Saya."

Crossing his arms as he turned his head toward Ichiryu, Sani sighed. "As it seems that I have no choice. I agree to a marriage for one year only. And only one time 'consummating' the marriage only one time only." Shivering as he uttered the last statement.

His demeanor totally different now, Nayuki smiled as he clapped his hands together and turns to Ichiryu. "That is wonderful! Ichiryu it is good to do business with you." Reaching out he shook his hand and smiled. "Everything is a go now. I will leave her with you and Sani, I expect a copy of the marriage license by the end of the week."

Walking him toward the door past the kids, Ichiryu nodded a thank you to Sani, but gave him a glare as well. To stay there he would be right back. He was relieved that he agreed to it, but he had to go along with it. "You will get it as soon as possible. I see no reason in prolonging it since they both have agreed to it."

Waiting for them to be gone, Sani turned softer eyes back to the woman before him, who would be his wife by that night he was sure. "Saya." When she turned her eyes to him he sighed. "Tell me. Why were you so scared when it looked like I wasn't going to agree to it at all? And I know it has to do with your father. What is going on there?"
