[A scheming, high-ranking noble seme × a proud, honest orphan uke]

[The characters’ names are a bit long. Sometimes they’re referred to by their given names and sometimes by their surnames, so please keep an eye on who’s who.]

[An alternate Western world, set several centuries after the Second Industrial Revolution and in the early stages of the Third. The setting is roughly like Britain in the 1940s or 1950s.]

Darrell Bock is clever and excels at acting and learning. He has the golden hair and blue eyes associated with nobility, but in reality, he is just an orphan from the slums. After finally managing to get into university in the major city of Rolmanbeck, he has no money and can only work at upscale restaurants. Because his appearance doesn’t match his commoner status, he is often mocked by the nobility.

In a fit of anger, he impersonates the only son of the Windsor family, Rolmanbeck’s most prestigious noble house, and scams his way into free food and drink at a high-end club.

In class, he meets an exceptionally handsome young man named Abner Green. What Darrell doesn’t know is that he is actually Eldric William. From the very first time Darrell used his identity, Eldric knew. He has secretly returned to see what kind of person this impostor is.
