The Secret Revealed
Kyohei, an unpopular college student, had another rough time on a group date today. His only boast—that he's the cousin of the wildly popular male talent Arisugawa Ren—is a lie... When Kyohei returns to his apartment feeling empty, Ren is waiting for him at the door. He decides to hide Ren, who seems to be in distress, in his house, but when he sees her body in the bathroom, it becomes clear that she's a woman...?!
The Double Life Begins
After discovering Ren's secret, his manager, Satsuki, orders Kyohei to accompany him to work. Kyouhei immediately accompanies Ren to promote his upcoming live drama. Ren is scheduled to co-star alongside Momoka, from the idol unit "Haru x Momo." However, after talking with Haruna, the other member of the unit, Ren and Kyohei end up locked in a room at the television station...
Jealousy and Scandals
Satsuki realizes Kyohei has crossed a line with Ren and confronts him about it. Kyohei has mixed feelings when Satsuki explains why Ren dresses as a woman, but when Ren sees him getting into trouble with a drunk Satsuki, he misunderstands. Ren instinctively flees and returns home alone. Ren is shaken, but then he senses someone stealthily approaching him...
The Temptation Increases
Although the ghost incident that worried Ren has been resolved, Ren continues to stay at Kyohei's house until he finds a new place to move. Kyouhei also officially becomes Ren's assistant, but accidentally ends up in the waiting room of the idol Momoka. Momoka is usually polite and cute, but her attitude suddenly changes...!
Crossed Boundaries
The pressure mounts with external threats (paparazzi or suspicious acquaintances). Kyouhei and Ren deepen their erotic and emotional connection, exploring fantasies and playful submission, but risking everything being exposed if they aren't careful.
