## Relationships

### Sayuri Chiba

Haru is Sayuri's Partizan, although he doesn't take his role of protecting her as seriously as he should, possibly due to his affiliation with Leviathan. Sayuri uses him for info about Leviathan, though he doesn't know that.

### Ingrid Crow

Ingrid sees Haru as a rival, as she is jealous of the praise he receives from Claude, as well as of his closeness with Jamie.

### Lottie Pumpkin

In The Lost Princess, Lottie is impressed by Haru's ability to calm Jamie down, and she puzzles over how someone so gentle could be a Partizan. Later, when Sayuri reveals his affiliation with Leviathan, she stops trusting him.

In Princess at Heart, Haru blackmails Lottie into silence about his true identity as a member of Leviathan. In exchange for the safety of the other Rosewood students, Lottie would have to exchange letters with the leader of Leviathan, Claude Wolfson, allow Haru to spent an hour alone with Jamie without disturbance, and keep his true identity a secret. This caused Lottie to have a severely negative relationship with Haru until the events of Princess Ever After.

### Jamie Volk

Haru first met Jamie in The Lost Princess, when the Rosewood group transferred to Takeshin gakuen. Haru seemed to have the strange ability of being able to calm Jamie down, though his liking towards Jamie was partly due to his affiliations with Leviathan. Haru led Jamie into Leviathan's hands during his time in Tokyo, and he ended up getting stabbed by him as a result. Later, Jamie recognises this scar and discovers Haru's association with the organisation. Haru eventually followed the group to Rosewood in Princess at Heart, acting as a Teacher's assistant for the year, though his real intentions were to act out Leviathan's plans, which included getting closer to Jamie. In his "Secret Diary", Lottie ends up discovering multiple drawings of Jamie, a lock of his hair, as well as multiple small notes written by Jamie that Haru had kept. Once Jamie discovers the truth about his father, he approaches Haru and asks him to take him to Leviathan, in an attempt to run away from Rosewood. In Princess Ever After, Haru is shown to be extremely devoted to Jamie, mentioning that he was "Helping Jamie" when he set Lottie free while she was being held captive by Leviathan. Before this incident, Jamie and Haru share a kiss, though the moment is tainted due to Jamie's conflict over his feelings for Lottie. Haru is understanding about his situation. Though he does not explicitly state his romantic feelings for Jamie, they are heavily implied by his loyalty, devotion and affection towards him. Jamie and Haru betray Claude during the Golden Flower Festival. In the epilogue, they are revealed to be life partners, and leaders of the new democratic system in Maradova.
