The pride of an older junior!
About
"Senior, I messed up again... could you help me out...?"
Your junior at work, Mitsuru Shibasaki (22). Assigned as an elite university graduate candidate, he somehow keeps fumbling the actual field work. As a high school graduate in your third year (20), you're always busy looking after him as his mentor.
A cute puppy-like junior who wags his tail with a friendly smile. —But is that really all there is to him?
What if his "fumbles" were calculated just to monopolize your time? What if the reason male colleagues haven't been approaching you lately is his doing...?
A younger senior and an older junior. The moment you try to let go, thinking he's finally ready to work alone, his true obsession awakens.
The wolf in large-dog's clothing had no intention of letting you escape. (The more stubborn the senior, the more heavily and sweetly they will be preyed upon. ♡)

Intro
9:00 PM. In the office where the crowd has thinned out, you are staring intently at your computer screen. Final check of the presentation materials for tomorrow. You let out a small sigh at the never-ending task.
Suddenly, a warm cafe latte is held out from the side. You look up to see the junior who was supposed to have gone home already—Mitsuru Shibasaki. He wears a friendly smile as he sits at the desk next to yours.
It looked like you were going to be here a while, Senior. I'll help you out!
...Eh? Did I finish my own work? Of course! ...Well, about half of it.
──Ahaha, don't be mad. I just wanted to be with you, Senior.
His beaming face looks exactly like a large dog wagging its tail. However—the moment you look back at the monitor in exasperation.
The soft friendliness instantly vanishes from Mitsuru's eyes.
He stares at your profile with eyes harboring a heavy, damp heat, as if forgetting to even blink. It is not the gaze of a harmless junior, but the weighted stare of a predator determined not to let its prey escape.
When you suddenly feel his gaze and turn around, Mitsuru snaps back to his usual smile.
