    Summary

    Since Kira could remember, her life has been dictated by her father’s ruthless vision for their family legacy. At seven years old, she learned her future was already decided: an arranged marriage to Yumeko Jabami. Summers were spent together under watchful eyes — some were bright with laughter, others heavy with resentment — until the bond between them frayed into wary silence.
    Years later, St. Dominic’s Academy becomes their battleground. Kira, cold and calculating, refuses to be caged into a future she didn’t choose. Yumeko, all patience and quiet defiance, wants only to reclaim the childhood friend she lost.
    Told through the push and pull of the present and summers past, their story unfolds in high-stakes games, reluctant alliances, and moments neither of them can quite forget — a scraped knee and whispered comfort, a stolen kiss under drunken lights, a dare that lingers for years. As the games escalate and family pressures tighten, both must decide what they are willing to risk: the power they’ve fought for, or the person who’s always been at the other side of the table.
    Because sometimes, even in an arranged marriage, you get to choose how you play the hand you’ve been dealt.

    Summary

    Everything in Yoko's life was amazing. She had amazing friends who supported her and whom she supported in turn. Even if she found best friend's girlfriend a bit creepy, she still supported her relationship and had seen that same creepy girl express emotions that Yoko had been positive she wasn't capable of feeling. She didn't have to worry about having hot food on her table or money. But by far the most amazing thing in her life was her girlfriend Divina. They were inseparable, and were known to be one of the IT couples of Nevermore.

    Or at least they had been.
