Love Me! (Like You) Hate Me!
Lily Aikawa thought transferring to a new school would be her chance to start fresh. But in a place ruled by strict hierarchies, cruel whispers, and an unbreakable social order, her mismatched green eyes and gentle spirit only make her a target.
Then there’s Arata Takashiro: the untouchable king of the school. Cold, ruthless, and shrouded in mystery, his word is law, and crossing him comes with consequences. He’s everything she despises—yet his piercing gaze seems to follow her every move.
But Arata isn’t what he seems. Behind his cruel exterior lies a dangerous secret—and a growing obsession with the girl who dares to defy him.
“You think you know me?”
His voice was cold, his face inches from hers.
“You don’t. And you never will.”
Lily held her ground, even as her chest tightened. “Maybe that’s because you’re too afraid to let anyone in.”
As feelings blur and boundaries break, their lives collide in a web of lies, desire, and heartbreak. In a world where love and hate are two sides of the same coin, can they survive each other—or will they destroy everything they touch?
