When Ayla a struggling backup dancer, is forced into a fake relationship with Zayn Min—the nation’s most beloved idol—she signs the contract with shaking hands and a desperate heart.

And every time she tries to leave, he reminds her—she’s part of the show. And he owns the stage. He doesn’t just want her on his arm. He wants her silence. Her fear. Her devotion.
