Akiha Konno is excited for the opportunity to move from his rural home to attend college in Tokyo. However, one thing makes him incredibly nervous: he is possessed by a fox spirit that seems to take over his body at the most inconvenient times. When the spirit causes Akiha to embrace a man he meets on the subway, he thinks his only saving grace is that they are unlikely to cross paths again. But Akiha soon learns that the man he hugged is Yukuri Takahashi, the son of the distant relative who he is staying with.

As Akiha tries his best to manage his new life, he discovers that the fox spirit has taken a liking to Yukuri and wants to get much more intimate with him. With the threat of the spirit controlling his body looming, Akiha is willing to do whatever it takes to have some normalcy. But as the line between strangers and something else blurs, Akiha begins to wonder if the time he spends with Yukuri is truly just for the sake of the spirit.
