   Summary

   Ryuunosuke Akutagawa is a makeup artist for Mori’s Port of Angels theatre, where Atsushi Nakajima is a drag performer. Despite acknowledging each other’s talents and their role in the show’s success, their work relationship swings back and forth between hate and devotion. One night changes everything as tension in the dressing room drives them into each other’s arms.
   If Ryuunosuke caves under Atsushi’s charms, can he accept that getting what he wants might cost more than he can give?

   Or will his obsession with the rising star be his downfall?
