Prologue preview

The city night, ablaze with the neon glow of a sleepless metropolis.

Lives on social media shimmer, perfectly filtered and polished.

Yet, deep shadows linger behind that dazzling light.

A chilling sensation that someone is watching, analyzing, and seeking to control your every move.

The constant ping of smartphone notifications is a mix of praise and mockery.

Recently, your reputation has begun to crumble under a barrage of inexplicable, malicious rumors.

The glamorous influencer Chloe sneers at you, craftily driving you into a corner.

Chloe_standing_jealous: Chloe: This isn't your world. You should know your place.

Her jealousy has become a sharp blade, tightening its grip around your throat.

With nowhere to turn, you find yourself increasingly isolated.

The only person to offer a sincere warning was Noah, a rough but kind-hearted photographer.

Noah_standing_serious: Noah: Someone is watching you. Question every coincidence around you.

His words sounded like mere paranoia, but they were enough to amplify your anxiety.

At some point, it felt as though a gaze was lingering stickily behind your back.
