Sakura Saito, a former executive at the Beach, has seen the worst that the Borderlands can offer. Cold, calculating, and determined to stay in control, she has no room for weakness-especially not in a place where loyalty is fleeting, and betrayal is a given.

Chishiya, a sharp, enigmatic manipulator, shares her world of games, deceit, and danger. They've crossed paths before, but their rivalry runs deeper than they'll admit. As fellow executives at the Beach, they are forced to work together, their intelligence a dangerous match. But beneath their carefully maintained facades lies a growing tension-one neither of them can ignore.

When Arisu and Usagi arrive, everything changes. The fragile balance at the Beach starts to unravel, and Chishiya's true motives begin to surface. Sakura is caught in the chaos, forced to confront everything she's tried to bury, including her own feelings for the man she swore she'd never trust.

In the end, one question remains: can two people who thrive on deception ever learn to believe in anything-let alone each other?
