Taming Kaguya (1)

A little while ago...

Yanagi Rena was the pride of the Yanagi House, a family of true nobility in Japan. Raised in an environment steeped in tradition and privilege, she had never known a day of want or inadequacy. Her upbringing was meticulously curated; she was given the finest education, groomed to be the best in every way. Excellence was not just expected of her—it was demanded. And Rena delivered. She excelled in her studies, outshining her peers with ease. The only ones who ever came close to rivaling her were the Arima twins, two of her classmates who occasionally stirred a competitive fire in her otherwise serene confidence.
