Minase Ama, a rookie idol, spends her days enduring harassment from the members of “LUNA NEST,” led by Saotome Anna. Amid this, Ama is guided by the popular actor Hosho Chiaki, whom she happens to meet by chance, and ends up serving as a stand-in for a drama.
Chiaki takes an interest in the pure and innocent Ama, and at the urging of his mischievous friend Asakura Kairi, who proposes a bet on whether Chiaki can “win Ama over”, he approaches her playfully. However, when he witnesses Ama growing closer to her co-star and on-screen love interest, Hachimura Rintarō, feelings of jealousy begin to stir within Chiaki.
Meanwhile, Ama comes to Chiaki’s aid when he is being pressured for money by his biological mother, Natsumi, and he gradually finds himself drawn to her sincerity. On the other hand, Ama awakens to her path as an actress and auditions for a new project by the up-and-coming director Tanuma, steadily beginning her journey as a performer. Yet this only fuels Chiaki’s anxiety and jealousy, and his affection slowly transforms into possessiveness and obsession.
As the relationship between Chiaki and Ama deepens, a mysterious actor named Seira, who knows of Chiaki’s past, appears before them. With Seira’s arrival, both Chiaki and Ama grow increasingly restless.
