Hikaru Jamie had always trusted love—until Rina Hoshino, his childhood friend and secret first love, betrayed him. Heartbroken and cold, he enters the elite Moriyama Academy, determined to focus only on himself.
Surrounded by rival students, luxury dorms, sprawling campus malls, and high-stakes sports competitions, Hikaru quickly becomes the academy’s ace on the soccer field. Admired by many girls, he rejects their advances without hesitation—his heart isn’t ready to heal.

Yet the past isn’t done with him. Rina returns, seeking forgiveness and a second chance, only to find that the boy she once loved has changed. Will Hikaru finally open himself to love, or will his heart remain forever ignited but untouchable?
