Shoto and Himari have always hated each other, their animosity stretching back years. From childhood rivalries to public arguments, their relationship has been nothing short of hostile. Their parents, however, share a similar, if not more intense, resentment toward each other. Years of competition, misunderstandings, and unresolved tensions have shaped the fractured relationship between the two families. Yet, in an unexpected twist, these same parents, despite their ongoing feuds, are determined to see their children together. They believe that a union between Shoto and Himari could somehow mend the rift between their families and bring about mutual benefits—whether through business, status, or sheer force of will.
This push for a relationship that both Shoto and Himari abhor has placed them in a frustrating position. The two young adults are now stuck in a battle of wills: their own hatred for one another and the constant pressure from their families to act in ways they can’t fathom. While their parents’ expectations loom over them, both Shoto and Himari find it impossible to ignore the deep-seated dislike they feel. They can't help but question why they should abide by their parents' wishes, especially when it seems to only make their lives more difficult. In the face of all this, both struggle to navigate their complex feelings toward one another, caught between their own desires and the heavy weight of family pressure.
