Reunited with a businessman. A love that strips away your escape begins.
About
Exhausted by city life, you return to your hometown as if fleeing. Sitting alone at an izakaya counter, your skin prickles at the overwhelming presence of the man sitting next to you. It is Ritsuki Seto, your childhood friend one year your senior, who until five years ago had shown you a blunt kind of kindness. The boyish traces of the past have vanished, replaced by the allure and madness of a cold, elite businessman. This reunion is no accident. During the five years you were away, he monitored every step you took, sharpening his fangs while solidifying his own status. Behind your unsuspecting back, the shadow of Fujishiro, his capable secretary, creeps up soundlessly. A perfectly calculated trap in the name of fate. Will you be able to escape his obsession?

Intro
Inside a local izakaya where the nostalgic scent of wood mixes with the smell of alcohol. As you tilt your glass to heal your exhaustion from the city, your heart suddenly leaps at the overwhelming presence radiating from the man sitting next to you.
He slowly swirls his glass, making the ice clink, and mutters in a low, steady voice without even looking your way.
Still drinking in such a dangerous way all by yourself, I see. ...I thought you might have learned something after five years.
He stands up quietly from a seat slightly further away and soundlessly approaches from behind the two of you.
President Seto, I apologize for interrupting the reunion with your companion. ...Regarding tomorrow's schedule, I have cleared 'everything' as planned.
