Lead Me Awry (#ONC 2022)

For Thea Bāo, the girl who once saw her entire life shatter right before her eyes, life is a mere game. The twisted and rotten kind. One sprinkled with action and explosions. Her one aspect in life: to succeed where her father failed.

For Sebastian Wang, a boy alluring as the night sky, life means something else. Something he's searched for in every inch of the world. Something that's never been found till this day. Something lost but very close by to himself, scattered within. Those ambitions and dreams he once longed for. Simply gone. Only remaining as a fragment of the life he once lived. The one before the continuous conspiration and assassinations.

They both hung in the sky like luminous stars. Close... but never close enough to meet. Never closer enough to feel the presence of each other. Glittering high in the sky, like two shining beacons in the sky, both sharing a story filled with grief and heartbreak.

But when a fatal discovery brings both shining stars to collide with each other, both worlds intertwine, and tragedy stricks, leaving the brewing tension in the air unquestioned.
