Rent-A-Girlfriend Vol. 8 — Manga Raw / Buy Official

The aftermath of the hot springs trip has left Kazuya and Chizuru trapped in a suffocating silence, but Ruka Sarashina is determined to drown that silence in chaos. Acting as both an ally and an antagonist, Ruka ruthlessly manipulates Kazuya’s life, going so far as to falsely claim they are dating in front of Chizuru to test her reaction. While Chizuru maintains her professional facade, Ruka’s raw, obsessive jealousy begins to crack that mask. The true turning point arrives when Chizuru is forced to confront her own buried feelings, fueled by a genuine, biting resentment toward Ruka’s invasive maneuvers. Ruka isn't just seeking Kazuya; she is systematically dismantling the boundary between Chizuru’s job and her heart. As the lies grow harder to maintain, the two women are locked in an unspoken battle, leaving Kazuya paralyzed in the middle of a collapsing reality.
