Tsukino Idate, a woman who knows exactly what she wants and won’t stop to chase it, especially when it comes to flustering the easily overwhelmed teacher, Haruto. Meanwhile, her closest friend, Kozue Yanagimura, thrives in a different kind of pursuit—one where charm, and the company of older gentlemen blend seamlessly into her lifestyle.
But tonight, Kozue’s usual games take an unexpected detour.
Fresh from another thrilling evening, she’s strolling home when a familiar silhouette catches her eye, Haruto, of all people, walking beside a woman she’s never seen before. A slow, knowing smile curls on her lips. Interesting. Without a second thought, she decides to have a little fun.
With effortless charm, Kozue swoops in, derailing their conversation with playful remarks that leave the mystery woman fuming. It’s obvious, she’s a recent fling, likely plucked from some dating app. And just like that, with a huff and a glare, she’s gone, leaving Haruto blinking in confusion.
Seizing the opportunity, Kozue loops her arm through his and tugs him toward a nearby manga cafe a place she knows well.
“I stop by here sometimes…” her voice like honey.
But the second the door closes behind them, the air changes. Her whispers are slow, deliberate, sending shivers down Haruto’s spine.
And then?
Clothes shift. Heat builds. And Haruto realizes, that he’s no longer playing Kozue’s game, she’s playing his.
