The Garden’s second Friday is here, and Kouta must once again announce which one of the girls he’ll be sending home. But before he can say her name, Nanako steps forward and declares she’s withdrawing herself. Seira, the newest mistress, wastes no time in seducing the despondent, lost Kouta…until a certain someone reappears and turns the tables!

In order to find out the truth behind the “unwanted child” of the Ikarugas, Kouta sets his sights on a new target—Aria, the student council president! Will he be able to successfully assume control of the academy and find the answers he seeks?
Having solidified his control over the school, Kouta is finally free to enjoy an afternoon with Nagisa. But just as their date gets underway, a new competitor appears—Yukiya Nishikawa, the heir to one of the Higashiyamas’ rival corporations! He challenges Kouta to a perilous game where the loser must forfeit a mistress. With the stakes so high, can Kouta emerge victorious?
