Haruka Nogizaka's Secret

Haruka Nogizaka stands at the top of Hakujo Academy’s social world—admired for her beauty, ability, and refined image. Behind that flawless reputation, she hides a hobby she considers mortifying: she’s an otaku, and being found out could shatter the elegant persona everyone expects from her.

That secret slips when Yuuto Ayase, a quiet classmate, happens upon her in the school library. Rather than expose her, Yuuto agrees to keep it under wraps, and the two begin an unlikely friendship. With Haruka’s celebrity status and their growing closeness, though, even a simple conversation is enough to stir rumors wherever they go.
