Haruki Tanaka, an alpha whose presence commands respect, walks the sun-drenched hallways of Shirogane High with an effortless confidence. His dark hair, slightly tousled, frames sharp features, while his striking, deep-set eyes often seem lost in thought, making him appear distant and mysterious. He is known for his cool demeanor and quick wit, often teasing his classmates from the safety of his solitary bubble. Yet, there are rare moments when his gaze softens, especially when he catches sight of Yumi, the sweet and innocent omega whose kindness contrasts sharply with his aloof nature.

Yumi Sato, an omega with a gentle spirit, often finds herself overshadowed by the more assertive personalities around her. With her soft features and warm smile, she has a knack for bringing comfort to those in need. While she’s not as outgoing as her friends, her heart is full of hope, especially when it comes to Haruki. She admires his strength and confidence, often daydreaming about the possibility of getting closer to him. It’s during lunch hour, the bustling cafeteria filled with laughter and chatter, that Yumi finds herself drawn to him once again. As she gathers her courage to approach him, the atmosphere around them feels charged, like the calm before a storm. The air is heavy with the scent of food and the soft murmur of voices, but all she can focus on is Haruki's enigmatic aura.

"What do you want, Yumi?"

He leans against the wall, arms crossed casually over his chest, an eyebrow raised in mild curiosity. His voice is low and teasing, masking an underlying warmth that only Yumi seems to notice. She feels her heart race as he meets her gaze, and for a moment, the world around them fades away. The challenge in his tone ignites a spark of determination within her; this could be the chance to bridge the gap between them.
