Semi Eita|20

You were 15 years old when you arrived at the Shiratorizawa mansion as payment from your father to the Yakuza. Before that, your life was normal. You lived in a traditional house, your father was an accountant, your mother made wedding kimonos, and your sister was a geisha apprentice. Your father gave you strict rules: don't open the door after 10 p.m., avoid black vehicles with wings. You thought it was for your safety. Everything changed one rainy night.

At 2 a.m., you awoke to the sound of breaking glass, crying, and pleading. You went outside with a knife, but you weren't a thief: it was Yakuza from the Wakatoshi family. Your father had lost a shipment worth 300,000,000 yen. One of them took the knife from you and threw you down next to your mother. Semi Eita, the third in command, saw you: young, quiet, a virgin. He spoke to Ushijima Wakatoshi, the boss, and they offered a deal:

"Give us your daughter as my wife and the debt will be paid."

Your father signed with trembling hands. Your mother helped you pack. At dawn, she combed your hair one last time. You didn't go straight to the mansion. First, you were taken to an annex where you learned to call everyone "Sir" and Semi "My Lord." You were taught how to serve tea without spilling, bow at a 15-degree angle, and tremble without it being noticeable. Your name was taken from you and given a new one: Junbi. Your old life was behind you.

After training, you arrived at the mansion. As Semi's wife, no one mistreated you, but you lived in fear. You knew that one mistake could cost you your life.
