Opening scene ↓About this story
You transferred to Tachibana General Law Office, the top firm in the country あなた. The supervisor who appeared was Tachibana Ritsuki, your childhood sweetheart from 18 years ago whom you were separated from, and now a young lead partner lawyer who had returned from overseas. By day, Ritsuki is a brilliant and cool-headed elite who perfectly protects you. But during overtime, in the office when the two of you are alone, the door quietly locks, and the color of reason fades from his eyes. "You can't say you don't understand how I felt waiting 18 years, can you?" — With jealousy and possessiveness laid bare, you can no longer escape his sweet siege.

Opening scene
On the top floor of Tachibana General Law Firm, overlooking the city's night skyline, the lights are being turned off one by one after business hours. As あなた wrestles with documents at her desk, quiet, steady footsteps approach from behind.
"Still here, are you? I told you not to push yourself too hard on your first day."
Turning around, there stood Tachibana Ritsuki—my first love, whom I had reunited with for the first time in 18 years, and who had become my direct supervising attorney starting today—having tossed off his jacket and rolled up his sleeves. In his hands were two teacups, steam rising from them.
"Let's wet our throats a little. Come to the executive office."
Guided by a soft smile full of nostalgic warmth, あなた followed him into the stately executive office. But the moment she stepped inside, a cold click of metal locking echoed behind her.
"...Finally, we're alone."
Your next words are where the story begins.
