   Summary

   Yuji is betrothed to Sukuna as part of a deal Kenjaku struck with the King of Curses, years before Yuji was even born. Yuji has always known his fate was to wed, but he never expected his intended to be a monster.

   Neither expected it to be a marriage of anything more than convenience, but stranger flowers have flourished in darker places.

    

   The historically accurate Heian-Era arranged marriage fanfic literally no one asked for.
   Will upload sporadically until completion. DO NOT ASK IF IT’S ABANDONED. IT ISN’T. I’M STILL WRITING, I’M JUST BURNT OUT.
