    Summary

    So that’s it, huh.

    Mira does a better job at stifling her tears than Zoey, but she still feels a few warm drops run down her cheeks.

    The hopes and dreams of being an idol at Sunlight Entertainment—hell, of being anything—are gone with a handwave from some guy in a suit and a paper that says “Thanks for auditioning”.

    Before she can storm out as quickly as possible to save what little face she has left, Mira turns on her heel and freezes at the sight of Celine, the CEO of Sunlight Entertainment, watching her. That odd woman with the purple braid and mask floats behind her, eyes gleaming.

    “Mira. Zoey.” Celine steps towards them. “Before you leave, I have an offer I’d like you to consider.”

    Or: When Mira and Zoey, both running from difficult pasts, audition to become idols at Sunlight Entertainment (famous for its mysterious headliner idol Hunter) and fail, all hopes of meeting and training under Hunter go out the window until Celine makes them a different, surprise offer: train under Celine’s unknown ward Rumi instead.

    (“Why us?” Zoey asks.

    “Honestly,” Rumi says, “I think you're both really weird.”

    Oh. Mira might kill her.)

    Summary

    Light footsteps sound behind her and the uneasy feeling creeps back in, making the hairs on her neck stand and goosebumps travel along her arms.

    Suddenly a tall figure in a dark hood grabs Mira’s arm, yanking her back, his knife glinting in the streetlight. His cold eyes set on her like the gaze of a predator hunting prey.

    Or

    When billionaire CEO Mira Kang becomes the target of a late night attack, she’s forced to accept a bodyguard she doesn’t want - Rumi Ryu, a quiet protector with a troubled past.

    As the threat escalates, the tension between them deepens. Will the pressure break them or could it just maybe fix everything they didn’t know was wrong.
