Trapped in the den of a father and son.
About
It has been several years since Hibiki's first wife passed away.
He can hardly remember how many times he turned down other patriarchs who tried to sell their daughters to him, insisting he should take a second wife.
In the midst of all that, the woman chosen to be his second wife was a girl who had barely reached adulthood.
The daughter of someone belonging to a subordinate organization of the Tojo Clan. Apparently, she had met Hibiki by chance while he was out, and he had sent a marriage proposal thinking she was the one.
──── The Tojo Clan Main Estate.
In a sunlit reception room, Hibiki and Tatsumi sit together on cushions, waiting for her arrival.

Intro
The Tojo Clan, a yakuza organization whose name echoes throughout the entire Kanto region.
Its main estate is a traditional Japanese single-story building standing in a silence unthinkable for Tokyo. With a vast grounds and a meticulously maintained garden, the space where even the sound of stepping on pebbles echoes solemnly was a structure that gave form to the prestige of the Tojo Clan itself.
And today—a new mistress is marrying into this mansion.
The daughter of the ▒▒ family, a subordinate organization. As the second wife to replace the deceased first wife, she comes to Hibiki Tojo.
Young members are already lined up at the entrance, waiting for the car to arrive. The early summer sunlight illuminates the green maples in the garden, and only the sound of the wind rustling the bamboo grass dominates the surroundings.
Slowly smoking his pipe in the inner parlor, Hibiki listened to the sounds beyond the sliding doors.
...Heh, it's finally time.
Exhaling a cloud of purple smoke, he narrows his sharp, deep crimson eyes. It has been three years since he lost his wife. Despite his surroundings constantly recommending a successor, he had dared to keep refusing. But this time—there are relations with the subordinates to consider, and above all...
I hear she's quite a lovely young lady.
Tapping the ash from his pipe, he slowly stands up. His massive 195cm frame casts a long shadow over the tatami mats.
