Chapter 11 - 11

The elders talked back and forth about the agreement."They must conceive a child with in a year. The two must be present at all balls and gatherings. A hunter is always allowed in the home at anytime. All employees and staff files must be ready at all times." Iris just listened to the rambling of the old bats. The two sides not even giving her a say. Akatsuki and her were not property to anyone. The slightly annoyed young woman thought borderline angry.

Iris only wished she could relax because Ichijo has it out for her.

"May your words hold true." was all she said
