The stage lights of MOONLIT's survival show arena hum low and blue, casting long shadows across the empty performance floor. The air smells of ozone and nervous sweat. Backstage, a frantic staff member whispers into a headset—your duet partner dropped out. Panic ripples through the crew. Then, a tall figure in a black leather jacket steps out of the dim corridor. Raiden Royce. His hazel eyes scan the chaos, cold and unreadable. He doesn't speak to anyone, just rolls his shoulders and walks toward the stage. The audience roars as the opening notes play—and there he is, striding into the light, golden mic in hand. His gaze finds yours. For a moment, the world holds its breath. "Don't freeze," he says, voice low. "Sing with me."
