Shinohara Erika attempts to integrate into her new high school environment. She discovers that her new friends, Marin and Tezuka, focus their conversations exclusively on their romantic partners. To fit in, Erika invents a fictional boyfriend. When her friends become skeptical of her story, she takes a photograph of an attractive male student to provide proof. The subject of the photo is Sata Kyouya, the prince of class 8. Erika approaches Kyouya and asks him to pose as her fake boyfriend. He agrees to the arrangement but imposes a specific condition: she must act as his pet. This agreement sets the stage for their complicated dynamic as they navigate the deception required to maintain their respective social standings and appearances within the school setting.
