Giyuu Tomioka, the illegitimate son of the Tomioka family...was sent to be married off to the heir of the Shinazugawa lineage. As a child, he had been used and discarded as simply as a doormat due to being born from the illegitimate second wife...who soon had put an end to her life just years after giving birth to her son, Giyuu. After receiving the news that the legitimate son must wed another man, he had fled at the break of dawn. With no one left to fufill the predicament...Tomioka was inevitably sent off on a carriage in replacement. The only problem-was navigating through the hatred the two families had harbored for eachother. Though a game of chess, he must find a way to force Sanemi Shinazugawa to fall heads over heels for him, in order to secure his life in the Shinazugawa manor. "Tomioka Giyuu...this second, have you ever loved me?" "...Knowing that every stroke of my pen was a mistake, I dare not step into my lord poetry again." Angst| Slow burn| slight smut

Sanemi and Giyuu dint interact much , well besides being a dick to Giyuu. All that Sanemi would do was practically bully him! But with an assignment that required both of them to work together, that all changed. Could they become friends overtime? Possibly even lovers?? School AU!! Credits to each and every artists work I am using. [Little note;This is my first book, sorry in advance for short chapters,long waiting periods,language and spelling mistakes. Recommend any other ship and ill consider adding it! This AU consists on everyone being 20+ (their in college perchance). Sabito being alive but Giyuus family is still dead. Sanemi and Genya live together but don't exactly get along perfectly. Also, Sanemi has made fun of Giyuu ever since they met (elementary). Povs might be weird cus im dumb and don't exactly know how to potray it perfectly! Hope you enjoy the story and feel free to send feedback<3]
