"I know." The man growled underneath his breath to the smaller male. "A-ah, how can I be of use to you? W-would you like me to—" Tanjirou's words heeded themselves with the glare the taller man sent down at him. "You. You are my soulmate right?" Tanjirou's eyes widened, "N-no? I haven't seen or felt my string, or the markings of my soulmate.." The redhead trailed off. The other man snickered.

"You're really stupid you know?" The man insulted the beauty, "Excuse me s-sir but there is no need for insults!" The man snickered, "The soulmate mark can only be seen when the two come in contact, so if I do this." The flicked Tanjirou's nose, "Ow.." He rubbed the bud. "You see that idiot? Do you feel it in your hand?" Tanjirou gazed at his hands, "No? I feel a tingly sensation but that is it."

"Hm, you're quite the beauty aren't you? Blessed with such hair, a healthy attractive body, even ugly scars look delicious on you, you must be really wanted here, aren't you?" Tanjirou unconsciously took a step back, "U-uhm, yes? I have been told I was quite beautiful I take great gratitude for your comments, b-but I am one of the most demanded along with Koinatsu-san, and Warabihime-san."

Tanjirou peered into those ill eyes with fear, "Yes! I won't do it again j-just please leave me alone! O-or I'll have to call the cops!" Gyutaro snickered bringing the terrified male closer to his body, "The cops won't do anything." He released his grip on the male, "The names Gyutaro, soulmate." Tanjirou sat on the floor his kimono disheveled as he just registered what had happened.

"You're scared aren't you? Do you like my face soulmate? Do you love me even after looking at this ill appearance?" Tanjirou couldn't utter a word but a choked sob. "I'll be back soon soulmate. I expect an answer okay?" Gyutaro grabbed the male by his pale face, "Got that?" Tanjirou finally registering what is happening and what the other male said, he nodded frantically as Gyutaro let him go and he fell back.

The taller male spat at Tanjirou once again and then he left. Tanjirou clutched his emerald kimono he hoped he was getting out of the house soon. This wasn't like anything before. He's had forceful males and a couple had hurt him but never in the way this man did. He was terrified of what would happen next.

The next day as promised the male did return.

"Sayonara Marsu-san!" Tanjirou bid the male goodbye. "Arigato
