Toxicdynamics قصص

Mia Kent is a resilient girl dealing with toxic family dynamics while living the hectic Mexico City. She is born into an abusive family. Her mother, Helga, has borderline crises that change Mia's life utterly and without warning. These episodes come as messy divorces, new boyfriends, new zip codes, degrees, money scandals or mental breakdowns. She grows up thinking manipulation, violence, absence, blackmail, passive aggression, and an ignorant bliss are the secrets to a good life. When Helga goes M-I-A, Mia is left to deal with loneliness in an on and off living alone situation since she is 13. Pulling off a master plan to avoid anyone finding out about her situation. Mia eventually finds herself at a crossroads where she will have to decide what voice to believe, the one that keeps her thinking she is destined to be that which she fears she will never get out of, or the one that keeps her having faith about her being so much more.

Inside the walls of Blackwood Psychiatric Hospital, one patient refuses to play by the rules. Her name is Serenity Mae Winslet. She's brilliant, at least, that's what she tells herself. But no matter how sharp her mind is, no one listens. No one believes her. And worst of all, someone is always watching. Her new therapist isn't like the others. He doesn't flinch at her games, doesn't rise to her provocations. He's cold, calculating, and far too perceptive. No matter how hard she pushes, he never loses control. But control is something she can't afford to lose. With every session, the walls seem to close in, and the line between patient and predator begins to blur. If she wants to escape, she'll have to outthink the man who already knows all her secrets. The question is.... can she?
