" Otillia Cobb slouched in her chair waiting for her 6'o'clock appointment.

The receptionist said, clacking on her keyboard. 'Thanks,' he muttered and sat down, in a random chair by the table with all of the magazines. Glancing at the clock, Tillie stood up and sat down next to the man. 'You new here or something?' " Otillia, Tillie, Cobb hid herself behind a mask of who she used to be. She hid her dark and destroying issues and illnesses behind flowers and fake happiness and contentment. Her problems were her own, and no one else needed to know or be burdened with them.

||psychopathy|| a neuropsychiatric disorder marked by deficient emotional responses, lack of empathy, and poor behavioral controls, commonly resulting in persistent antisocial deviance and criminal behavior. Lillia Davis worked as a Doctor in the Psychiatric Institute of Washington. For a few years, Lillia had worked with a specific patient by the name of Daniel Butcher. Daniel was a diagnosed psychopath and schizophrenic who had been working with Lillia since he got admitted to the Institute. She learnt the ins and outs of his brain and knew more about him than his own mother did. The two spent long days together, sometimes having to eat meals opposite one another. This lead Daniel to believe things he only wished were true. When Daniel goes missing from the institute, great panic arises when multiple young women are taken off the streets and announced missing. When the BAU gets called to work the case and Lillia gets brought in to help, who knows what rabbit holes they'll all find themselves falling into.
