Chapter 46 Marriage

 ...

A month had passed since the quiet announcement within the Hyuga clan, and the day of the marriage had finally arrived.

The grand hall of the Hyuga compound was adorned with traditional decorations, though the ceremony was private—only attended by members of the clan.

no word of the marriage would leave the compound, though the bond was far from a secret among those who were present.

Hinata stood at the entrance of the hall, her heart steady but aware of the moment. She wore a simple white kimono, marked with the traditional symbols of her clan.

Next to her, Hanabi, in a similar robe, maintained her usual calm expression, though her grip on the ceremonial fan tightened slightly.

Shoi stood at the center, waiting for them. His expression softened as they approached, the connection between the three of them clear, even though the marriage was arranged according to tradition.

As they reached his side, the Hyuga elder began the ceremony, reciting the ancient words that sealed their union. The atmosphere was quiet, the weight of the clan's history present.

Hinata glanced at Shoi, her face tinged with a faint blush as the elder continued. Hanabi remained composed, but her eyes briefly met Shoi's in silent acknowledgment.

When the ceremony ended, the elder handed Shoi the ceremonial cloth. He wrapped it around both their wrists, a gesture that symbolized their bond.

Shoi first turned to Hinata, who looked down as he stepped closer. He gently lifted her chin and placed a soft kiss on her lips. She smiled shyly, her face still warm with a blush.

Then, he faced Hanabi. She met him with her usual calm, though a hint of warmth appeared as he kissed her. She didn't need to say anything—their bond was understood.

With the final blessings, the elder stepped back, and the room felt still. Hinata looked at Hanabi, who gave a small nod in return. The bond between the three was quiet, yet solid.

As the hall emptied, Shoi stood with them, holding their hands. The moment felt peaceful, the outside world distant.

"Ready?" Shoi asked.

Hinata nodded, while Hanabi smirked, giving his hand a light squeeze.

After everything ended and when it was fiannly night time..

"Sister, why are you worrying so much? It'll be fine," Hanabi said calmly. "I've heard the first time isn't as bad as people think."

Hinata remained quiet, her hands nervously fiddling with the fabric of her kimono. "I just... I don't want to disappoint him," she admitted softly, her gaze downcast. The thought of her first wedding night made her heart race with anxiety—unsure of what to expect.

Hanabi gently squeezed her shoulder. "You're overthinking it. Shoi cares about you, and that's what matters. Just be yourself. Everything will be fine."

The door slid open, and Shoi entered the room, his presence calm yet commanding. "Sorry to keep you two waiting," he said, closing the door behind him as he moved gracefully, blowing out the candles one by one, leaving the room bathed in soft moonlight.

As he approached them, his eyes lingered warmly on both sisters. "You both looked stunning in your wedding dresses."

Hanabi raised an eyebrow, her tone playful. "So, we only look stunning in wedding dresses?"

Shoi chuckled, shaking his head. "You always look stunning, Hanabi," he replied smoothly, "but seeing you both in those dresses today... that was something special."

Hinata's cheeks flushed at his compliment, her fingers still nervously tracing the edges of her kimono. She glanced at Hanabi, who appeared as composed as ever, before sneaking a shy look at Shoi. "You looked... very handsome too," she murmured, her voice barely above a whisper.

Just as Shoi was about to say more, Hanabi slowly leaned in and whispered something in his ear. His expression softened, and he nodded in understanding. He turned his attention to Hinata, who still had her gaze fixed on the floor, her fingers fidgeting with her kimono.

Shoi, noticing Hinata's lingering nervousness, gently lifted her chin with his hand, tilting her face up to meet his gaze.

Without saying a word, he leaned in and kissed her—a long, deep kiss that spoke more than any words could. His lips moved slowly against hers, soft and patient, as if to reassure her without overwhelming her.

As Shoi deepened the kiss, Hinata's embarrassment flared up. The realization that Hanabi was watching made her face burn with a deep blush.

She instinctively tried to pull away, her hands pushing weakly against his chest, but Shoi was gentle yet firm.

Before she could fully break free, he grabbed her hands and gently pinned them down against the bed. Hinata's heart raced even faster, her breath shallow as she looked up at him, her wide eyes reflecting a mix of surprise and shyness.

"S-Shoi..." she whispered, her voice shaky, overwhelmed by both the intimacy and the fact that Hanabi was right there.

He gently pulled back, his voice soft but reassuring. "Hinata, you shouldn't feel embarrassed... the three of us are now husband and wife. There's no need to hide your feelings."

Hinata's mind was a whirlwind of emotions—confusion, embarrassment, and pure desire. She knew what Shoi was saying was true, but it was still so new to her.

She had never been this close with anyone before, let alone in front of her sister.

But as Shoi's lips moved against hers with such tenderness and passion, she couldn't help but lose herself in the moment. Her hands slowly relaxed under his grip as she kissed him back, her body responding to his touch.

His hands wandered over her body, and Hinata couldn't help but moan softly as he slowly undressed her.

Shoi's touch ignited a fire within Hinata that she had never felt before. As he undressed her, every nerve in her body seemed to come alive.

She moaned softly, the sound muffled by Shoi's lips against hers. His hands roamed over her body, exploring every curve and dip.
