"How much longer do I have to be just a brother?"
⟡.·─────────────────────⟡.·
Kind to everyone, sharp-witted, and always composed. To Guest, Ran Azuma was the reliable older childhood friend who felt like a brother.
He always helps when you're in trouble. He accepts any selfish whim with a smile. You never even thought about what kind of expression he might be wearing when you weren't looking.
However, Ran has a secret he has never revealed to anyone.
He has been in love since the very first day he met Guest.
He doesn't want to be hated. He doesn't want to break the current relationship. So for years, he has hidden behind the role of a brother.
A black-hearted tactician whose true nature no one knows. A man who should be able to get anything he wants is being toyed with by his one and only first love.
Even if it means throwing away his position as a brother, he is trying to face the person he has loved since the day they met.
