Villain: The Play of Destiny-Chapter 155

Alana Storm. The music genius who took the world by storm in the last few months.

One after another, she delivered brilliant songs, with each of them having more than 700 million views on the Internet and tens of millions of downloads.

No one in the history of the Music Industry had received stardom so fast. She was just like a girl blessed by the heavens themselves, and her talent in music even made the veterans burn in jealousy.

However, with the Prince of Sameran behind her back, no one dared to harm her in any form, directly or indirectly. And even the media outlets that published some fake and false news about her were directly dragged into the courts, where they ended up getting heavily fined.

Now, every news outlet verified the news ten times before publishing anything about Alana Storm. But they could still make some speculations, and they never refrained from doing it.

With successful concerts all over the country in the last two months, she was finally going to perform tonight at the capital of the province of Agnolia, Sameran City.

Tonight's concert was very special as she was not going to perform alone. The one who had raised her to stardom, the one who supported her, and even wrote all her songs that were on every youngster's mind, was going to perform together with her.

Yes, the Prince of Sameran was going to perform on the stage tonight. And rumours had been circulating in the media for the past few weeks regarding a certain 'Project Memoir' by the Black Forest Group. According to the rumours, Keith was going to shed some light on it tonight as the Black Forest Group had announced that there was going to be a big surprise at tonight's concert.

So, both the fans of Alana and Keith had flocked from all over the country to attend this concert, and even some Business Giants were present tonight to learn more about the Project Memoir of the Black Forest Group.

The Royal Camp, home ground of the Sameran City Football Club, the venue of tonight's concert, a stadium with a sitting capacity of 136,000 spectators, was totally occupied by 7 pm.

Songs and Music were constantly being played to pump up the audience, and everyone was surprised by how excellent tonight's management was. The sound system was also perfect, and completely immersed people in the music without any distortions.

It was clear that the management did not wish to comprise on the audience's experience and the quality of this concert.

Outside the stadium, there were still tens of thousands of people who had missed out on the tickets, but Keith had arranged free screenings for anyone who came here at the Training Ground right next to the Royal Camp.

Alana's name was being chanted all around, reaching far into the sky, and the girl in question was looking at the audience nervously as she stared down at the stands from the Executive Lounge.

This was going to be her biggest concert thus far.

She was really glad that the people could not see her behind the glassed walls, and she was feeling jitters again like she had felt before her first concert. But this time, there were not a few thousand people, but well over a hundred thousand of them, not counting just as many people who were outside the stadium, all here to attend her concert.

And then there were people who were going to watch the event live from their homes.

In her nervousness, she did not even register the arrival of a tall man, who came to stand right next to her.

"Excited, but nervous. Right?" A gentle voice entered her ears and the girl with chocolate brown hair immediately turned to look at her side.

"Keith!" She excitedly called his name and jumped in his arms.

"Good to see you too, Alana." He chuckled and stroked her back before separating from her and taking a good look at her.

In less than nine months since he had last seen her, the innocent young girl had changed a lot. Now groomed and slightly taller, she looked even more beautiful. And the adorable blush on her cheeks as she shied her eyes away after hugging him out of instinct was truly heartwarming.

"So, ready for the event?"

"Yes!" She composed herself and seriously nodded to him before telling him all about how her last few months went by, even though she had always been in touch with him through calls and messages.

"And how's Yexuan?" He smiled and asked.

"He's happy!" She said and there was evident gratefulness in her voice. "He's enjoying his new life and is now used to his new home. Unfortunately, he could not come here today as he has his exam tomorrow morning."

"I am glad to hear that he's enjoying his new life." He gently smiled at her. "If you wouldn't mind, the girls in my family are yearning to meet you. I hope you have some time..." He teasingly said.

"Why would I mind it?!" She looked at him in disbelief. "I so what to meet your wife and Fiancées! Where are they?" She looked ready to go with him to meet them.

"Thanks." He said and then sent a signal to his Shadow from his watch. "They will be here in a while."

A few minutes later, Kiara and Nana excitedly entered the lounge, followed by Qingyue, Rebecca, and Celine.

The five of them surrounded Alana, and the young girl from the Magic City felt really overwhelmed at being praised by Keith's family.

And she was stunned at how beautiful everyone was. It was just like someone had gathered the world's most beautiful ladies in one place, and when she saw Amelia and Venessa, she really felt overwhelmed by the aura oozing out of them.

But everyone was so polite and excited to see her that she could not suppress her smile.

Kiara and Celine were incessantly talking to her about how much they loved her songs. And they even showed her how many times they had replayed all her songs.

Keith let the girls be and excused himself to check one last time that everything was ready.

At exactly 8 pm, Alana walked out of the tunnel, onto the pitch, and then under the applause and chants of the audience, stepped onto the stage.

After taking some time to welcome everyone, earning loud cheers in reply, she finally started singing the first song of the night.

"...

If you want my future, forget my past

If you wanna get with me, better make it fast

Now don't go wasting my precious time

Get your act together we could be just fine

..."

It was, of course, the first song she had released, and after it, she sang her other songs which included the latest, Runaway, and Into your Arms.

After she was done singing five of her singles, the crowd suddenly started chanting the name of her another song that was very popular amongst the girls.

Alana brightly smiled at the audinece, and after catching her breath, she sang the song the audience was demanding so energetically.

"....

Oh, she's sweet but a psycho

A little bit psycho

At night she's screamin'

"I'm-ma-ma-ma out my mind"...."

Thunderous cheers by the girls broke out as soon as she finished the song, and then she announced something that made the audience go ballistic.

"The next song I am going to sing is my new single." She said. "It's called Faded. And I hope you guys would love it!" She hopefully said before waiting for the crowd to calm down.

"....

You were the shadow to my light

Did you feel us?

Another star

You fade away

Afraid our aim is out of sight

Wanna see us

Alight

....."

Her melodious voice and the way of singing gripped everyone's heart. This was what they loved the most about Alana Storm. She could sing in every genre without a hitch, and they absolutely adored this latest song by her.

Alana bowed to everyone to thank them for the standing ovation, and then brightly smiled at the Audience, waiting for them to quieten down.

"Now, I would like to introduce you all to my benefactor. Not that he needs any introduction, since everyone knows who he is..." She giggled as informed the crowd how by a twist of Fate she had met Keith in a restaurant, and how they had played the piano together for the first time. "I am forever indebted and grateful to him. Please give a round of applause to the famous Prince of Sameran, Keith Argus Demiliore!!!"

The tall and ridiculously handsome young man walked onto the pitch from the tunnel, and the girls who saw him on the screens immediately cried out in excitement, screaming his bane and jumping crazily, forgetting to even clap for him.

Under the enthusiastic welcome of the audience, Keith stepped onto the stage and politely hugged Alana before taking the mic from her hand.

"I am not much of a singer, so I won't be singing tonight." He straightforwardly said. "But rest assured that I will be playing a few songs for you with the instrument I am good at."

His words made some laugh and the rest just excitedly kept chanting his name.

"I will start with the first song that I played when I met Alana, and then we will play a song together."

Keith bowed to the audience and then confidently walked up to the Piano that was set for him, and sat down.

He patiently waited for the audience to calm down. And watching him lightly smiling and staring at the piano keys, the people subconsciously quietened down to hear what he was about to play.

Keith then proceeded to play One Summer Day for everyone, making the audience feel really light and happy from the bottom of their hearts.

Under the insistence of thr audience, he replayed the song one more time before he and Alana played A Town With An Ocean View.

The audience laughed and wholeheartedly enjoyed such light and catching music, and insisted on hearing it one more time.

After he fulfilled their request, Keith surprised everyone by announcing that he would be playing another song.

"This song is called The Devil's Bride. And I wrote it for my dear Fiancee, Rebecca Grayson." He said and then under the applause of the audience, his fingers fell on the keys, hooking everyone, including Alana, to the beauty of this piece of music.

It was a haunting, heartwarming, and at the same time, a song of sheer madness. It was something he had created himself, his first true song.

And the Audience was left stunned for a good couple of minutes after the song finished.

Then cheers broke out, and chants rose.

His name resounded all around the Stadium and even outside, and when he stood up and politely bowed to them, it only intensified the craze of the audience.

"It was wonderful, Keith!" Alana sincerely said as she approached him.

"Thank you!" He smiled at her and then they both turned to look at the audience.

"Thank you all for coming here tonight. And now, as promised, we will shed some light on the rumours that have been circulating in the media about a certain 'Project Memoir'." Keith calmly spoke, catching the attention of the people.

"The Project Memoir is real, and it's ready." Alana smiled and said, and soon after her words finished, the screens showed the new Social Network that the Black Forest Group had created.

"The new age of Social Networking is here..."

"Project Memoir is Live now!" Alana announced before introducing the features of Memoir as a tutorial played on the screens for the audience.
