Her vocals were flawless.
Her stage presence overwhelming.
Her charisma impossible to ignore.
She didn't merely perform a song.
She commanded the entire arena.
Many musicians finally understood why the industry had been shaken by her comeback.
Her recorded songs were already powerful.
But her live performance was something else entirely.
It was raw.
Magnetic.
Unforgettable.
Soon, the applause turned into a chant.
"Elena! Elena! Elena!"
The Black Stars hadn't even started it.
The entire audience had done it on their own.

In the very front row, both Jin brothers clapped along with everyone else.
However, the crowd was so focused on the stage that nobody noticed the expression on Jin Di's face.
His usually cold eyes were filled with unmistakable pride and tenderness.
Nor did anyone realize the meaning behind the flying kiss Elena sent toward the front row.
The audience assumed it was for everyone.
They were wrong.
