How to Seduce a Herbivorous Superior

Ever since Nakayama was first introduced to the professional world by his highly capable superior, Asaka, he has harbored an intense and undeniable infatuation with the man. Driven entirely by this deep affection, Nakayama worked tirelessly to follow in Asaka’s footsteps, eventually securing a transfer so they could work together in the very same office. However, the reunion does not go as he envisioned. The once-admired mentor has transformed into a strict, cold, and unexpectedly aggressive boss, subjecting Nakayama to harsh treatment on a daily basis. Rather than deterring him, this rough dynamic only complicates Nakayama's feelings further. He finds himself enduring constant reprimands and physical roughness from Asaka, yet he secretly discovers that this punishing attention awakens a thrilling side of his own desires. What appears to be a one-sided struggle of workplace endurance is far more complex beneath the surface. Unknown to Nakayama, Asaka guards a deeply personal secret—one that terrifies him and prevents him from ever allowing himself to fall in love. As Nakayama continues his relentless pursuit, he must navigate Asaka’s hostility and uncover the hidden vulnerability keeping them apart.
