To protect his image before the Galar Finals, World Champion Ash Ketchum agrees to a fake relationship with a name he thought he'd buried: Serena Yvonne, the crowned Kalos Queen-now a fashion icon with her own secrets to hide.
They're both professionals. They both say it's just for the cameras.
But Wyndon is a city of ghosts, and what starts as performance soon spirals into late-night tension, unresolved feelings, and a chemistry they can't fake.
Because pretending to love someone is easy.
It's pretending not to when you already do-that's the real lie.
