Country boy Akira is finally getting used to life at the Takatou mansion, where he is one of two candidates to be heir to the vast Takatou fortune. The other candidate is his princely cousin Rei, who is completely smitten with Akira. Things get hectic however, as new troublemaking members join the household. First to show up is Akiras Uncle Yuji; dead set against the stuffy customs of the Takatou matron, he has refused to take over as the heir to the Takatou family name. Next to reappear is the troublemaking Raoul. As he and Rei lock horns over Akiras attentions, Akira himself is intent on discovering more about his fathers past. When Rei learns that Akira and Raoul are trapped in a storage shed together, his jealousy goes through the roof. He forces his feelings on a reluctant Akira, who then realized that Reis feelings for him are genuine, and the two reaffirm their affection for each other.
