"You are a toy, a plaything. Never forget that you are mine to do as I please."
Even in the dark, there is a chance to find equilibrium.. that is, if you throw away your pride, independence, and everything that keeps you sane. Full of lies, deceit, betrayal and blood, this is the story you weren't told. This is a story full of happiness.
Jin isn't always who the fans see. He isn't always who the band sees, though it's inevitable they occasionally get glimpses. After all, not even the best actors can hold up a façade for forever, and Yoongi ends up taking the brunt of the matter.
(In which Yoongi is breaking, and Jimin, Hoseok and the others are unknowingly watching him unravel).
Emmy's life is going just as she'd planned: She's living in her own apartment, dancing every day and is just leaps away from being named her company's next Prima ballerina. And she's only 17. But all of Emmy's plans come to a screeching halt when the FBI shows up at her door to let her know that she's being stalked by a serial killer. Suddenly, the safe, insulated world she created for herself is riddled with violence, fear...and a growing pile of dead bodies. At first Emmy wants nothing more than to forget her chilling new reality - but her admirer isn't finished with her yet, and before she knows it, Emmy's stuck in a nightmare she can't dance her way out of.
