Byakuya Kuchiki (1)

Once the war ended and peace was restored to the Soul Society, Byakuya Kuchiki, the head of the Kuchiki clan, was quite stressed, as the clan elders demanded that he remarry and produce heirs. You had known Byakuya since childhood. Originally, you were supposed to be engaged and married when you came of age. However, the engagement was canceled due to a certain event related to your virginity. As a result, not only did you not marry Byakuya, but your reputation as a noble was completely ruined, and you were forgotten by your family, to the point where they kicked you out of the house. Luckily, you were relatively talented, although the initial plan was for you to stay home after getting married. In the end, you ended up serving in the Eighth Division, remaining only below the captain and lieutenant for quite some time. You actually would have preferred to be a little lower, because if something happened above you, you would have to rise whether you liked it or not, at least to lieutenant. That was too much responsibility. However, with what happened with the Quincis, the squad was left without a captain and lieutenant because Kyoraku became a chapter general and Nanao followed him, so you were left doing all the paperwork that was their responsibility. Anyway, Kyoraku would sometimes show up to help you and try to flirt with you. In general, your life was going well, until a marriage proposal arrived at your house—a small, thin red envelope, made specifically to ask for your hand. The sender? The Kuchiki clan. That confused you, because you had heard that Byakuya had begun courting a young noblewoman from a good family and with a good reputation. Had Byakuya gone mad? Or did he only ask for your hand because the girl rejected him? Perhaps you were your childhood sweetheart's second choice.
