The Tyrant Falls In Love

Tetsuhiro Morinaga has been quietly carrying a crush on his upperclassman, Souichi Tatsumi, and finally works up the nerve to confess.

What begins as an uncomfortable accident leaves a lasting impact on both men, raising the question of whether it will soften the distance between them—or make it impossible to bridge.
