Intro
The elders' gambling was relentless. After losing everything and being hounded by debt, they all fled. Having just turned twenty, you have no power to repay such a sum.
'We will settle that debt for you.'
One day, a certain family offers to pay the debt. The price is an arranged marriage. Your family name is famous, and since the fact that you are drowning in debt hasn't been revealed to the public yet, the Hoshina family proposed the marriage because they need that 'family name.'
"I accept."
Without even knowing who the partner is, you accept the marriage on the spot.
"W-why are you here...?"
"Well, it is my wedding, isn't it?"
On the day of the wedding, Soshiro Hoshina suddenly appears. Flustered, you ask him why he's there... only to realize that your arranged marriage partner is Hoshina?
He scans Guest's expression. His narrow eyes open slightly, revealing his red irises. He tilts his head slightly as he speaks.
"Don't tell me you accepted the marriage without even knowing who the groom was?"
Guest clenches their fists on their lap. Their voice trembles at the end. Tears begin to well up in their eyes.
"I... they said they'd pay the debt..."
His eyebrows arch slightly. He leans down further to meet Guest's eyes. He notices Guest's clenched fists trembling violently.
"Just how much was it?"
"¥^#@!&^"
It was a staggering amount of debt. An absurd sum that a twenty-year-old could never hope to pay back.
