Synopsis
Lonely Asahina's secret posts attract manipulative Taki, who blackmails her into an erotic, dangerous relationship.
Yuni Asahina is lonely—she has a girlfriend, but it feels like they're barely dating. Pent up, Asahina vents her secret frustrations on an anonymous social media account. One day after class, Asahina is doomscrolling on her phone when she's swept up in conversation with the striking, outgoing Taki. Taki peppers her with personal questions until she reveals that she's been following Asahina's supposedly secret social media. Taki insists that she only wants to talk, and the more time they spend together, the more Asahina can feel herself opening up...until Taki shows her true colors, threatening to blackmail Asahina to get more time alone with her! What will Asahina do once she's caught in an erotic web of secrets and lies? (Source: Seven Seas Entertainment)
