How you became well acquainted with the extremely loyal warrior you don't remember. What you do remember was his fierceness on the battlefield as he fought in the name of Hideyoshi-sama. You admired his strength and unwavering loyalty to your lord. Whether you liked it or not, you developed some feelings for this man.
Many years ago when Hideyoshi was still traveling often, he came across a village that was home to many strong warriors. However, when he 'met' with these men, they were not as strong as he thought they would be but still offered a place in his army. Coincidentally, that same night, you killed the village leaders, public officials, and whoever dared to oppose you.
The next morning, rumors that the Goddess of Death had returned to cast her vengeance on those who killed her beloved brother. These rumors were later confirmed by the cowardly officers who you had purposely let go only to kill them later. Hideyoshi confronted these men and began to question them on who you were and what had happened. For his own purposes, of course.
Going to the site of the massacre by himself, Hideyoshi declared that the Goddess of Death reveal herself.
Hearing your dreaded nickname, you took a moment to analyze the man. Deciding you would take your chances, you jumped down from the rafters.
Once you landed silently on the ground, Hideyoshi took in your appearance: a blood soaked yukata, a few blood smears on your face, your blood drenched twin katanas, and he sure as hell noticed the dangerous aura you emitted.
You then found out that Hideyoshi was a man of few words. The first words he said to you were, "You are to join my army."
When you asked why, he simply said you weren't weak. And when you asked if there was a choice, he just gave you a heated glare. Deciding he'd be good enough for a master, you gave him a smirk and agreed.
"We leave in an hour."
~Time Skip~
Arriving back at his castle a few days later, the first one to rush over was a man with white hair and a katana as long as your own. Your first impression of him... well. It wasn't the best. When he met your eyes, he immediately sensed your overflowing power and your dangerous aura and obviously saw you as a threat which led him to draw his sword on you. You didn't bother responding.
"I am Mitsunari Ishida. Who are you, woman? Why has Hideyoshi-sama brought a woman instead of a warrior?" he questioned, forgetting the men behind you.
Deciding you already disliked the man, you responded coldly. "Who I am is none of your concern. I don't answer to anyone unless it is Hideyoshi-dono." Over the past few days, Hideyoshi had grown on you. His power, his fierceness, his resolve. You who had never bowed to anyone before, would come to bow down to him.
Suddenly, Hideyoshi looked at Mitsunari signaling for him to shut up. He then looked at you, then at the remaining warriors he had picked up before you. Knowing what he was implying, you nodded at him. Hideyoshi and Mitsunari then jumped onto the rafters.
Brandishing your sword, you swiftly beheaded all the men behind you without any hesitation. The poor souls weren't even able to register what had happened. Plunging your sword into the pile of corpses, you looked back up at the men standing on the rafters.
Mitsunari then jumped down and studied you just as Hideyoshi did but more thoroughly. He drew his sword on you once again. When you didn't draw your own, he looked at you expecting you to say or do something. You simply stated, "I will only fight in the name Hideyoshi-dono. Seeing as you are one of his strongest subordinates and that he has not given me any commands, I have chosen not to draw my sword on you."
He suddenly sheathed his sword and gave you a smirk similar to the one you had given to Hideyoshi when you first met him. Mitsunadri then said something unexpected. This is exactly what he said, "I like you. I'll enjoy having you around."
Over time, as you learned more about Mitsunari and how he came to respect Lord Hideyoshi, you began to look up to him as well. The day you completely fell for him was when he met you in the gardens out of concern.
That day, Hideyoshi forced you to rest seeing as you were not feeling well. Despite his cold demeanor, the giant had a soft spot for you.
As stubborn as you were, you reluctantly gave in. You then proceeded to stroll around the garden west of the castle. Suddenly, Mitsunari appeared in front of you after your little coughing fit. Expecting him to insult you, you were surprised when he tilted your chin up and gazed into your eyes just as a lover would. Your face became flushed at the sudden thought. Never before had something like that crossed your mind and your faced reddened even more at the sudden realization. You weren't the only one to notice.
Softening his features, he looked at you, slowly closing the gap between your faces. He took in a deep breath and hesitantly began to speak. "You really are sick. Tell me the truth. You've been sick for a few months now haven't you? Hideyoshi-sama has noticed as well. Day by day, we can see how much paler you've become. Your slightly revealing clothing isn't really helping your case either. Tell me what's wrong. You should know I can't afford lose you. You're just as precious to me as Hideyoshi is. Well, it's a bit different with you... please, ______."
It was the first time. It was the first time he addressed you by your first name. Hell, it was the first time he addressed you by your name. From that moment, you finally understood that you were really sick. You actually loved the way he said your name. You concluded that there was something seriously wrong with you. But~ it wasn't that bad. Looking at your husband's face now, you realized that you didn't care about the bad blood you had with him in the past.
