Prologue: Before the Silence
.......
They say the greatest performances are born from pain.
But what no one tells you is that pain lingers long after the curtain falls.
Before the silence, there was soundâfierce, tender, tangled like heartstrings. Three musicians. Three lives knotted together by ambition, history, and something far more dangerous: love.
It was the winter season when Isla Renner returned to Ardent Academy. The snow had barely melted since the last time she fledâafter a kiss she never asked for, a confession she couldnât return, and a choice she was too afraid to make.
Sheâd thought time would untangle the threads.
Instead, it only tightened them more than she imagined.
Now, with a competition looming and a trio bound by more than music, Isla must face what she tried to forget. Leo still plays like fire still being reckless, brilliant, consuming. Mira still watches with eyes full of things sheâll never say aloud because she has always been a person of few words.
And Isla? Isla still runs afraid of what happens next.
But music doesnât lie. And neither does silence either.
Want to find out what happens next......
Read to find out.
