Chapter Two: A Meeting of Twilight and Sunlight
He looked down at the sleeping beauty beside him. Last night was mostly a blur of alcohol, whips, chains, knives and lots of blood. But even after that, the woman still had the nerve to laugh and smile, even in her sleep, as the fresh wounds healed on his body.
"Kojuro..." she whispered, waking up, looking up into the eyes of her lover.
She watched him get out of bed, and walk to the mirror, examining his wounds, sighing when he looked at the knife beside the bed, now wearing rusty, dry blood.
"Masamune-sama is going to kill me.." he said, shuddering.
He scrambled to find his clothes and she watched on with curious eyes. "What's wrong?" she asked. "I was supposed to be at work at nine, it's eleven!" he yelled. She laughed and said,"Kojuro, no law places or business like that are open on Sundays.." He stopped and said,"Huh? It's Sunday?"
"Yes, you idiot, now come back to bed." she said.
She looked at her phone when Kojuro removed whatever clothing he just put on and walked back into the bed. "Ha. Mitsunari just texed me." she said with a laugh. "You said it's eleven?" he asked. She nodded and he asked,"What time is the wedding?"
"I don't know. And I really don't care either. I like Ieyasu, and I feel god awful for him. He's going to be miserable for the rest of his life." she said. "Don't worry, I'll fix it." he said. "I know you will, you make everyone happy." she said. "And I know how to make you feel amazing, don't I?" he asked.
"Sweet, sweet Kojuro..." she said, stroking his scarred cheek when he tackled her, and the two rolled off the bed, their bodies hanging upside down, her hair falling to the floor as his teeth nibbled on her favorite spot on her neck.
Back at the Oda Residence, Nobunaga placed his hands on Miya's bedroom door and said,"Dare I wake her? We should get to the hotel to get ready for the wedding..."
Hidekatsu walked out of his bedroom, and said,"Good morning, father." "Hello, son. Did you sleep well?" Nobunaga asked. "As well as I could." Hidekatsu replied with a smile. "So, did Akimitsu complete his mission? Is Kojuro dead?" he asked. "He should be, Akimitsu is the best." he replied.
"Well, unless I get a head, Akimitsu won't get his money." Nobunaga said. Hidekatsu noticed his father kept looking at Miya's bedroom door and said,"Ten dollars says she isn't in there." A smirk spread on Nobunaga's lips, and he said,"Really now, where would she be, it's January, it's nine degrees, she shouldn't be out running around."
"Kojuro's?" Hidekatsu asked with a shrug. "Hidekatsu, dear, if she was at Kojuro's, then it would mean Kojuro is still alive, and Akimitsu failed his mission." Nobunaga said, laughing as he walked away. Hidekatsu growled and said,"He better not have. I could care less for Kojuro, but Akimitsu is my best, he's never failed anything for me."
Hours passed when Nobunaga walked into Society Hill Hotel, watching on as Mitsuhide Akechi and his second in command, Toshimitsu Saito crossed their arms, looking at him. "You're late, Nobunaga-kou." Mitsuhide said, waving his white hair out of his face. Beside Nobunaga stood Ieyasu Tokugawa, watching on.
Mitsuhide looked at the older Ieyasu and said,"Here's the money. We hope the marriage will be a long lasting one." "It better be." Ieyasu said. Toshimitsu ran his fingers through his thick blond hair and said,"Alright, so let's get down to business. As far as we know, Akimitsu killed Kojuro Katakura last night, so his own deal with the Conshohocken firm is down the drain."
"Which gives us the chance to expand onto them now." Mitsuhide continued.
"My only concern was wondering why Kojuro had his eyes on that very same hotel." Toshimitsu said. Mitsuhide laughed and said,"A place out of the wandering eyes of the Oda, where he could freely fuck his girlfriend?"
"Hey!" Nobunaga yelled,"no one puts their hands on my little girl." Mitsuhide laughed and said,"Come on, Nobunaga-kou, get with the times, I'd be worried if he didn't sleep with her!" Angrily, Nobunaga readied his fist to drive into Mitsuhide's face, when Ieyasu quickly said,"But he's dead now, so we can all rest well."
"Good call." Toshimitsu said, raising his shot glass. Mitsuhide, Nobunaga and Ieyasu did the same. Moments later, Hideyoshi and Mitsunari walked in, side by side, looking around as decorators began decorating the room. "Ah, Hideyoshi, there you are." Nobunaga said, shaking his hand.
"Where are the rest of your retainers?" Hideyoshi asked, looking for either Ranmaru Mori or Katsuie Shibata. "I gave Ranmaru the day off, and Katsuie is over looking his area, they'll be back for the wedding." Nobunaga said. Mitsunari crossed his arms and said,"Looks like you're going all out for this one."
"Mitsunari, don't question Nobunaga." Hideyoshi said. Mitsunari gasped and bowed down,"I'm sorry, Hideyoshi-sama, Nobunaga-sama." "Pity.." Mitsuhide said to Toshimitsu, looking at Mitsunari,"a man who walks in the shadow of his own lord...he may never grow to know his own potential."
Nobunaga laughed and said,"Hideyoshi, you got yourself a good one here, don't let him go." Hideyoshi laughed and said,"He's too good for me, I can't let him go."
Suddenly, before Nobunaga could speak again, the door slammed open, causing everyone to turn and look at the angry Miya Tuonela who stood in the doorway.
"Uh oh, here comes trouble!" Toshimitsu said, cringing.
"Damn it, what is it now?" Nobunaga said, watching as his furious daughter stormed into the room. Everyone was silent when Miya yelled,"Father! How dare you interfere with my personal life!" Nobunaga laughed nervously and asked,"Whatever do you mean, my dear?"
"Don't play innocent with me! I'm not an idiot! You tried to have Kojuro Katakura killed last night!" she yelled, her face turning red in anger. "Miya, I did nothing of the likes." he said. "Don't you dare lie to me!" she yelled.
Nobunaga turned to his men, who wore frightened looks, and said,"If you'll excuse me, I have to handle this alone." He turned back to Miya, who in her rage, grabbed a large table and threw it against the wall, breaking not only the table, but put a hole in that wall.
"Miya! Stop this insolence!" he yelled.
"Holy shit, she's pissed!" Mitsuhide yelled. "She must have found out the plan to kill Kojuro." Toshimitsu said,"this means he isn't dead." "How do you know he isn't dead?" Hideyoshi asked, cringing as Miya's yelling pierced through his ears.
She was now screaming in her native Finnish, which proved that she was even angrier than before.
"She wouldn't let him die." Mitsuhide said.
"Calm down, princess!" Nobunaga yelled. "I will not!" Miya yelled,"I love Kojuro, and he has done nothing wrong, nothing to warrant you to murder him!" "He put his hands on you, that's evidence enough!" "Bullshit! Like that's a valid excuse! You knew how I grew up and how unloved I was, now I finally have love and you want to snatch it away in cold blood?"
She growled, and grabbed Nobunaga's collar, slamming him against a pillar, looking her murderous eyes into his,"If you dare try to kill Kojuro again, I swear I will make you regret it."
Everyone watched on, covering their mouths in order not to scream, eyes wide in fright.
"Heh. So you would choose him over me?" Nobunaga asked. "No. I still love my daddy. I will always love my daddy. But I love Kojuro also. Do not interfere with my personal life." she snapped. "You would choose him over me." he sighed.
She growled and dropped Nobunaga to the floor, walking away angrily, as she began to silently cry.
"I'm sorry, daddy." she said, leaving the room.
The doors slammed shut, and everyone yelled,"Daamnnn!", when they looked at Nobunaga. "Of course, she has to take after me. My own daughter inherits my bipolar disorder." he said.
"Kojuro is still alive." Mitsuhide said. "Apparently." Nobunaga said. His heart was still beating quickly from nearly being skinned alive by his tiny daughter, and he said,"We'll get him again, don't worry. But next time, we won't make it so obvious. Damn it, Akimitsu was the best."
"How did she know of the plot?" Toshimitsu asked.
"The only logical answer would be that she was over there when Akimitsu tried to murder him." Mitsuhide said. "She...what?" Nobunaga said,"so Hidekatsu was right, she wasn't in her room this morning, instead, over there! Damn it!" He clenched his fist and snapped,"that man...he put his hands on my daughter for the last time!"
"Think he'll show up at the wedding?" Hideyoshi asked. "If he's smart, no. But Miya's coming, Ieyasu is her friend, and she's part of the Oda. She won't go dateless." Toshimitsu said,"unless, you want me to take her?"
"You're close enough to a Finn anyway, what with that long blond hair, blue eyes and high cheekbones, but she'll turn you down flat." Mitsuhide said with a laugh,"besides, you're mine." Toshimitsu laughed and said,"Of course I am."
Hideyoshi noticed that Mitsunari was in his own world, daydreaming when Nobunaga snapped,"Hey, watch and listen, boy, one day, you'll be in charge of the Hashiba." Mitsunari blinked and said,"Hmm? Oh...sorry.", while blushing.
"So as I said, if Kojuro is smart, he won't show up. But Miya won't arrive dateless, her ego won't let her." Mitsuhide said. "Well, there's a few single men out there, right?" Toshimitsu asked. "I don't see why she can't be on my arm." Nobunaga said.
Ieyasu looked at Nobunaga and said,"By the way she acted, I don't think she would like that." Everyone looked at Ieyasu, who nearly hid in his shell when glared at by the Oda Family. "He's right. But don't worry, I'll get in her good graces. I just have to buy her a teddy bear or something, and she'll be just fine." Nobunaga said.
"Your daughter is unwavered by petty gifts, you know." Mitsuhide said. "Don't tell me how to raise my own daughter, until you become a father, keep your mouth shut." Nobunaga snapped, silencing Mitsuhide.
"Am I making the right decision?" Ieyasu asked,"really, I mean you're a powerful company, a powerful family, but for me to just dump my only son to the sharks?"
Nobunaga placed a hand on his shoulder and said,"Of course it's the right idea. You and your family will have the best of everything. My sister will be happy, and young Ieyasu will grow to love her."
Mitsunari listened on intensely when Ieyasu was brought up and laughed to himself. "Ichi already likes Ieyasu. Apparently she likes to follow him all over the city." Mitsuhide said.
"So as I said, it's perfect." Nobunaga said,"Ieyasu, you're in good hands." "Thank you." Ieyasu said. Nobunaga chuckled and said,"As long as you don't send that Tadakatsu against us.." Ieyasu laughed and said,"I can't get that robot to listen to me anyway, he only obeys my son."
"Nobunaga-kou.." Mitsuhide said. "Hmm?" Nobunaga asked. "If Miya does show up, let's hope she doesn't embarrass the Oda name by freaking out like that again. Do something, up her medication, or something like that, we can't let her give the Oda a bad name." Mitsuhide said.
"What did I just get finished telling you, Mitsuhide?" Nobunaga snapped. "Mitsuhide is right." Hideyoshi said,"we can't have the girl breaking windows and throwing tables, it'll take the attention away from the wedding, and it'll be front page news, the powerful Nobunaga Oda can't even control his own daughter, none the less an entire city."
"Alright, alright. I'll do something." Nobunaga said,"Kojuro can come. He'll keep her calm. But the second he does something I don't like, he's dead."
"I'll watch her. She really likes me." Mitsunari said. "Because every girl wants a gay best friend." Mitsuhide said with a laugh. "Like you're one to talk." Mitsunari snapped, looking at Mitsuhide's hand entwined with Toshimitsu's.
"I never denied I was...just stating a fact about you." Mitsuhide said.
"Leave him alone, Mitsuhide. Perhaps Mitsunari isn't comfortable talking about it." Nobunaga said, looking at the skinny silver haired man. Mitsunari looked away and bit his lip, keeping quiet. "He can be a little shy sometimes." Hideyoshi said. "We don't tolerate shyness in the Oda." Mitsuhide said.
"Mitsuhide!" Nobunaga yelled.
Mitsunari chuckled a little bit, watching as Nobunaga grabbed a handful of Mitsuhide's white hair, growling at him. "Anyway, we better go. The wedding is soon, let's let everyone finish decorating. I'll go check up on Ichi and Miya, see if everything is alright. Ieyasu, go see your son, and Mitsuhide, keep an eye out for Kojuro." Nobunaga said, walking out the door.
Everyone followed suit and quickly made their way home.
At home, Ieyasu paced back and forth in his bedroom, walking headfirst into Tadakatsu who seemed to wear a worried expression. "Don't worry about me, Tadakatsu, I'll figure out how to get out of this mess." Ieyasu sighed. He was still in his pajamas instead of the tuxedo his mother left him, and the wedding was in another hour.
"Ieyasu! Come on, we can't be late!" Lady Tsukiyama yelled from downstairs. "I can't do it." Ieyasu said, looking at the floor,"Kojuro said he would help me, but can I really trust him? He wasn't one hundred percent sure..."
A sigh escaped his lips when he trailed his hand down the tuxedo. It was really nice, too nice, he thought. A gift from the Oda, so it was absolutely perfect, and had to cost at least a couple thousand dollars, or more.
"Alright then. I have no other choice...here goes nothing." he said, putting the tuxedo on. He then grabbed a comb, combing his hair, and spiking it, as he always did with his hair, and walked out of the room. Tadakatsu followed and together, the two walked down the stairs.
Before Ieyasu could blink, Lady Tsukiyama took a picture of her handsome son, the flash surprising Ieyasu so much that he fell down the steps. She gasped and ran to her son worriedly, breathing a sigh of relief when he sat up, rubbing his knee.
"Mama, do you think you can NOT do that again?" he said. "Yeah, sorry about that, honey." she said, rubbing the back of her head. She helped Ieyasu up from the floor and said,"You look so handsome, Ichi would be so happy." "I hope so.." Ieyasu said, walking away.
He walked out the door and to the limo that awaited him, ready to take him to Society Hill Hotels, where the wedding was to take place.
One by one, the guests piled into the hotel, each family sitting by the other. The Oda, Date, Akechi and Toyotomi on one side, along with the Mori, Maeda, and Shibata families sat on the right. At the other side, the Tokugawa, Takeda, Sanada and Uesugi sat at the left, all watching on.
Mitsunari sat beside Miya, keeping his hand entwined with hers, when Masamune took the seat beside her. Nobunaga turned around and watched the three silently, when the doors opened, and Ieyasu, in his groomly glory, walked into the room.
It was quiet, too quiet, Ieyasu thought, shaking nervously as he walked down the aisle, everyone's eyes locked on him. Mitsunari watched him and said,"Ten bucks says he's going to have a seizure." "If I were him, I'd fake one." Masamune said.
Motochika, the Best Man, ran to Ieyasu and kept his arm around his shoulders, keeping him steady as everyone still watched. "It's so quiet...help me!" he whispered. "Well, what do you want me to do? Tell a joke?" Motochika said. Ieyasu flashed a nervous smile and stood before the priest, waiting for his "bride" to come in.
Ten minutes passed, and still, no sign of Ichi.
"She probably just passed out again." Miya said, sitting back in her chair. Mitsunari followed suit, leaning back, keeping his eye on Ieyasu. His violet eyes trailed down his body, sighing. He felt his heart beat quicker, and his body grow warm. "What a handsome man. A shame he's taken.."
Suddenly, the doors opened, and Ichi walked in, wearing a gaudy black ruffled dress, and a black veil covering her face.
Everyone gasped at her choice of wear, when Ieyasu groaned, looking back to Motochika.
"Jesus Christ, this is a wedding, not a funeral, Ichi, come on!" Miya yelled, watching as Ichi dragged her feet to the altar.
She was nervous, her eyes wavering through her tears, gasping at everyone's eyes on her. Her body shook, and she froze, falling to the floor.
"I'm sorry...Ieyasu-sama...I am late..." she cried, laying her head on her lap.
Everyone watched as she began to cry, and Nobunaga turned to his daughter yelling,"Miya, do something!" "What the heck do you want me to do about it?!" she yelled.
Ichi's screams became louder, and she flopped on the floor, as everyone watched on.
"Lay off Kojuro and I'll save the wedding." Miya said, groaning as she rose from her seat. "Deal, deal, just go!" Nobunaga said. She rolled her eyes and walked up to Ichi, in her gorgeous, yet plain haltered purple dress, revealing a large scar running down her back. One that Nobunaga didn't know she had.
"Listen, Ichi. Since we all share the burden of being an Oda, we're all messed up. Though I'm as nuts as it gets, it seems you're on a whole'nother level. We all feel bad about Nagamasa, and I hate the fact that you're marrying Ieyasu, but if you do this, daddy will lay off MY boyfriend, or at least keep that little lie in my mind for god knows how long." she said.
Still, Ichi wailed, when the violet haired woman wrapped her arms around Ichi's underarms, pulling her off the floor, and dragging her down the aisle, groaning about the pain in her back.
"Nobunaga-san, you ever notice that slash on her back?" Mitsuhide asked, whispering to the head of the Oda about the strange scar. "Hmm? No, I never did..." Nobunaga replied, his eyes trailing down it.
"I hear Kojuro Katakura is into kinky sex, you think he might have done it?" Mitsuhide asked, causing Nobunaga's fist to clench angrily, while Mitsuhide giggled.
"Ichi, seriously, you can't be dragging your heels, I have a back like a sixty year old!" Miya groaned. "Do you need my help?" Ieyasu asked. "Help? No, no, I can handle it." she replied. "Honey, you're completely hunchbacked...and never mind." he said, looking at the glare in his friend's eyes.
"Take your bride and have fun." she snapped, throwing Ichi at the priest, walking back to her seat before Nobunaga grabbed her arm and said,"What is that scar on your back, lady?" "Scar? Oh that. Don't worry, Mitsunari and I were out sledding last year when I went against a fallen branch." she replied quickly, running to her seat.
The priest then looked at Ichi and Ieyasu, ready to say his lines, when Ichi started crying again. Ever patient, but slowly losing it, Ieyasu yelled,"For christ's sakes, I do! Just get this fucking wedding over with!"
Everyone gasped at Ieyasu's anger and annoyance, his patience was well-known throughout the city, but then again, the annoying Ichi would be enough to knock anyone off key. Ichi said nothing, but jokingly, Motochika snuck behind Ichi and pushed her into Ieyasu, forcing their lips together.
"Alright, now you're married. Congratulations." Motochika said with a laugh.
"I will kill you." Ieyasu snarled at the laughing pirate.
The priest then looked at the newlyweds and said,"Well then...I guess I now pronounce you two husband and wife." Ichi smiled and wrapped her arms around Ieyasu, who looked down at her, screaming for help, when they fell from the altar, and to the floor.
"HELP!" Ieyasu yelled.
"She's your problem now!" Motochika yelled, running away. "MOTOCHIKA!" Ieyasu yelled. As Motochika was running up the aisle, he found himself face first with the floor, Motonari Mouri had just stuck his foot out, tripping him.
"You son of a bitch, Mouri!" Motochika yelled, ready to punch him out.
"You don't have the guts." Motonari replied, looking into his eyes. The two glared at each other, when Ieyasu yelled for help again.
"Hey, isn't this when you two run down the aisle and we all throw rice at you?" Masamune asked. Ieyasu looked down at Ichi clenched to his feet and said,"Yes, I think so."
Masamune then smirked, and slammed a handful of rice in his face, flinching backwards.
He then grabbed Ichi and ran down the aisle, as everyone threw rice at them.
"And now...the real party begins." Miya said with a smirk.
An hour passed. Everyone gathered in the reception hall.
A large wedding cake lay at one side of the room, and the families of the bride and groom sat at a table at the other side.
The elder Ieyasu and his wife sat beside their son and his new bride, while Nobunaga sat beside Ichi. Miya sat beside Nobunaga, Mitsunari sat beside her, as her date, and Hidekatsu and Akimitsu sat beside them.
"Full table, huh?" Mitsunari said, curling to himself, keeping his eyes on Ieyasu. "Getting a bit scared?" Hidekatsu asked him. "Hidekatsu, lay off my date. Mitsunari just has a problem with claustrophobia, right?" Miya asked. Mitsunari nodded in agreement.
"So what if I did this?" Hidekatsu asked, getting in Mitsunari's face, cornering him, when Mitsunari gasped and hid his face. The violet haired woman growled, and she rose from her seat, grabbing Hidekatsu and ripped him away from Mitsunari, throwing him out to the dance floor.
Ieyasu watched out of the corner of his eye, with a smirk.
"Well, that was quite impressive for a little woman." he said, raising his glass to her. She nodded and rose her glass as well. "Despite the fact that none of us are twenty one yet, and we still have alcohol, daddy's the best." she said with a laugh. She turned to Mitsunari and asked,"Are you ok?"
"Just fine." Mitsunari said, scooting a bit closer to her.
"This party is boring. Ieyasu, go out on the dance floor and hump your wife." Miya yelled from across the table. "What? You're crazy!" he yelled. "The lady is right, Ieyasu, go out and have fun with your new wife." the elder Ieyasu said.
"Come dance with me." Miya said, pulling Mitsunari with her. Nobunaga kept his eyes on them when Mitsunari wrapped his arm around her waist, holding her close, dancing slowly. "So Kojuro didn't come?" he asked. "Of course not. Kojuro isn't stupid, he wasn't going to come to a place where he knew everyone hated him." she replied.
The two then noticed Ichi pulling Ieyasu to dance with her. Miya noticed Mitsunari watching Ieyasu with a jealous look on his face and hatched an idea, pulling Mitsunari closer to the two of them.
Beside them, Motonari pouted, crossing his arms when Motochika was seen dancing with his childhood friend, Magoichi. Yukimura Sanada was trying to get Masamune Date to dance with him, and Kasuga was dancing with Kenshin Uesugi.
The scene was nice and serene, Nobunaga sighed and watched on as Ichi and Ieyasu danced together, smiling to the elder Ieyasu saying,"Don't they look just perfect together?" "Yes." Ieyasu agreed, keeping his eyes on them.
As the younger Ieyasu danced with Ichi, he looked up, and locked his brownish-orange eyes with the violet eyes of Mitsunari Ishida, who turned his head shyly. There was something mysterious and sexy about him, something dark and dangerous that Ieyasu suddenly felt drawn to.
Though Ichi held him, and Miya held Mitsunari, he kept his gaze on Mitsunari, trying to inch closer and closer to him. The violet haired girl noticed this, and brought the two closer, literally throwing Mitsunari into Ieyasu and Ichi.
"Oops." she said, running away.
Everyone gasped when the three hit the floor, Ichi groaning and wailing, apologizing to Ieyasu, when Mitsunari blushed shyly and helped Ieyasu up. Ichi, meanwhile sat on the floor, arms around his legs, crying.
"Sorry about that." Mitsunari said shyly,"i didn't realize the woman had such strength." Ieyasu smiled, and Mitsunari felt his heart grow warm at the genuine, sunny smile. "Don't worry about it. As long as it gets this dead weight off me." he said.
Ieyasu and Mitsunari looked at each other silently, letting their eyes do all the speaking, when Mitsunari nodded and walked out to the deck. "Wait.." Ieyasu said, holding his hand out,"I don't even know your name.."
He looked down at Ichi who wailed and cried beside him and groaned, rolling his eyes as he quickly ripped his leg free. Turning to his side, he noticed his violet haired friend dancing with Motonari, winking at him when he walked out to the deck, looking for Mitsunari.
There was no sign of the silver-haired man, instead, the city view at twilight, the hour between daylight and nightfall. A sigh escaped his lips, and he went into his pocket, taking out a cigarette.
A million times, Ieyasu tried to quit smoking, but this newly added stress of a quick marriage to a woman he couldn't stand drove him crazy, and made his stress even worse.
He lit up the cigarette, ready to bring it to his lips when a male's voice behind him said,"You know those are bad for you.." Ieyasu jumped when the shadowy figure of Mitsunari Ishida walked up to him, looking at him.
The brunette kept his back turned and smoked anyway, watching as the smoke danced into the wind. "You'd be stressed out too if you had to marry Ichi Oda." he finally said.
"Didn't your fat bastard father teach you any manners, you're supposed to look at someone when you speak to them." Mitsunari said. Ieyasu turned around and tossed his cigarette away, focusing his gaze on the silver haired boy.
"Is this what you want.." Ieyasu asked, in a lustful tone. Accidental of course, but still sending shivers down Mitsunari's spine.
"It's a bit more courteous." Mitsunari said. Ieyasu noticed the boy's violet eyes stood out even more in the incoming twilight, Mitsunari noticed Ieyasu's orange eyes stood out more as well and said,"I like the twilight."
He slammed his hand over his mouth and Ieyasu laughed,"As do I..it's beautiful."
Mitsunari felt a blush across his face at the way he said beautiful. For a second, he thought he was talking about him, but Ieyasu's light brown eyes looked at the sky, when night fell.
"We should go, I'm sure our families are looking for us." Mitsunari said. "Let them look, I don't care." Ieyasu said, walking to the doors to the deck, closing them. "Stay outside with me." he added.
"You are a married man, I cannot." Mitsunari said. A frown escaped Ieyasu's lips and he said,"A forced, unhappily wed man." "Doesn't change the fact that you are. I still have my morals." Mitsunari said.
Quickly, Ieyasu took out a a piece of paper and scribbled his cell phone number, handing it to Mitsunari.
"I see you are in a rush to leave. Call me." he said, handing Mitsunari the paper.
"As I just said, you are married. I will not subject myself to a scandalous affair with the brother in law of the most powerful man in the city." Mitsunari said, ripping the paper in half.
"So cold.." Ieyasu said, watching Mitsunari walk away.
"It's February, what do you expect, Ieyasu Tokugawa? Enjoy your marriage." Mitsunari said, walking back inside. Ieyasu sighed and said,"Enjoy..yeah right...why must you be so gorgeous...and yet, so dark...I can't keep away..."
"Violet-eyed stranger, I must have you.."
