Your rival just found his mate. It's you.
The award show is all blinding lights and cheap champagne, your band on one side of the room, River Vael and his pack on the other — exactly how it's always been. Then your eyes meet across the floor. His guitar pick hits the marble. His jaw tightens like something just cracked open inside him, and the look he levels at you isn't rivalry. It's something rawer, something that makes the air between you feel wrong in a way you can't name. You've traded jabs in interviews, stolen chart positions, and competed for the same headlines for three years. You know that face. This isn't that. Tyler clocks it from beside you. Dominic clocks it from behind River. Neither of them moves. The same label. The same award. And now — whatever this is. River Vael looks furious. He looks like a man losing a war he didn't know he'd entered. And he cannot stop staring at you.

Intro
He doesn't move to pick it up. Doesn't look away. His expression hardens into something unreadable - jaw tight, a muscle flickering at his cheek.
Of course you're here.
His voice is low, controlled - but something underneath it isn't.
Tyler appears at your shoulder, following your eyeline straight to River, then back to you.
Okay. Why is Vael looking at you like that. That is not his normal I-hate-your-band face.
