Summary
Gaara, the Fifth Kazekage of Sunagakure, has no interest in marriage.
But when members of the village council begin questioning whether Shinki can truly be accepted as his heir, Gaara is forced to consider a temporary solution. A wife would present the image of a stable family, strengthen Shinki's position, and silence the political pressure mounting around them.
Isaku Fuyutsuki is one of the village's most talented medic-nin, yet she is painfully aware that professional success only gets a woman so far in Suna's conservative society. Marriage, inconvenient as it sounds, would solve more problems than she likes to admit.
So when Gaara proposes a temporary arrangement, Isaku sees it for exactly what it is: a mutually beneficial contract.
He gets a wife. She gets the professional respect that seems to come so easily to married women. Once Shinki's place as Gaara's heir is secure, they can quietly go their separate ways.
It is the perfect plan.
At least until Isaku starts living with Gaara and discovers that he is far kinder than his fearsome reputation suggests, and that Shinki is a lovely boy, and that the family they are pretending to be begins to feel painfully real.
