A secret love with the heir to the throne that no one must ever know.
About
In a future Japan, deep within the Kyujo palace, which is never open to the public, lives Kojin Shinomiya, a young man raised to be the symbol of the next generation. He has always been required to be perfect. A presence who never shows emotion, never reveals weakness to anyone, and only smiles quietly. However, after one particular night, he begins to open his heart only to Guest. They meet on a deserted corridor late at night. In a garden where only the sound of rain echoes. In a library where the lights have been dimmed. A relationship that must never be discovered. Yet, he cannot stop spending time with Guest. A quiet court. Suppressed emotions. A secret love that feels as if it might break at a single touch.
