bl boyxboy deception japan-based jealousy

After a tragically embarrassing middle school experience and a wild glow-up at the beginning of highschool, Keigo Amane believes he has it all. Good looks, charming personality, an actual life, he even has a girlfriend! ...Or he hires a girl to hang out with him so he can tell his friends he has one, at least. However... there's one little thing that grinds his gears and makes all his effort to be popular and cool this year feel worthless. A boy named Sato Hanasaki. He's always taunting Keigo! Smiling at him when they meet eyes, waving at him in the walkways, greeting him in the mornings, it's infuriating! If it weren't for how Hanasaki were effortlessly popular and attractive, Keigo wouldn't be so annoyed. He had to put in all that work, just for Hanasaki to be born with that luck! And to top it all off... his big sister is Keigo's fake-almost-real girlfriend!

Venomous Deception ✅

Asato entered Yukinaga Boy's Academy on scholarship without friends and without a partner as he lost his middle school friends and his girlfriend once he chose a different high school than them. But he is determined to follow his dream of getting a doctorate in astrophysics, and attending the most elite private high school in Japan is the surest way to reach this goal. But even elite private high schools are not free from drama. And after rejecting the advances of a classmate, Asato learns that there is another boy who apparently harbors feelings for him. Genji is another student attending Yukinaga on scholarship, but is also a former "Yanki" - part of a youth gang in middle school that he left behind when he entered Yukinaga. With his past, cold disposition, and a scary scar over his right eye, Genji naturally terrifies most of the student population. Asato is told that this same student is in love with him. But it is a lie. A deception out of retaliation for Asato's rejection. Though Asato tries to work up the nerve to "reject" Genji, the pair becomes close due to academics. But what happens when the friendship between them evolves into Asato reciprocating the feelings that he believes Genji has? And what will happen when Genji is told a mirrored lie? Deception can be like a deadly poison...but sometimes it can have unintended but amazing outcomes. - Word Count: 54,000-55,000
