"Are you that scared?" Thiago asked as he rolled up the black sleeve covering Liam’s arm, then wiped the area with alcohol.

But before the needle could touch his skin, Eren stepped in.

"Wait," he said, staring deep into Liam’s eyes.

"William... please, don’t hide anything anymore."

"I-I’m not—"

Before Liam could finish, Eren suddenly reached out, forcing him to look straight at him. Slowly, he touched Liam’s right eye, then—

Plop.

A dark brown contact lens fell from Eren’s finger.

The room fell silent.

Everyone stared at Liam’s eye—glowing bright red.

William Louren was just an ordinary teenager—or so everyone believed. His world shattered when his family was brutally murdered, and he became the prime suspect after mysterious CCTV footage linked him to the scene.

Cleared thanks to the testimony of his classmates, William tried to return to a normal life. But the truth within him refused to stay hidden. When a global organization known as NEXARIS launched a medical screening operation targeting teenagers, a single mistake—a fallen contact lens—exposed a secret even William didn’t fully understand.

Now, with glowing eyes and a blood-stained past, William is caught in a global web of power, surveillance, and secrets.

Because William isn’t just a student.

He’s the key.

And everyone wants him—alive or dead.
