Summary is a work in progress... >.< 

Abducted and held in a strange facility, I am alone, cold, and terrified. Information about my captors and whereabouts is extremely limited, all I know is that I'm underground. But how far underground am I? A few dozen feet? A mile? Am I trapped underneath the bottom of the ocean? I try not to stress myself with the possibilities.

 I also know the purpose for the facility: scientific and medical experimentation. I intend to uncover more information as well as receive answers to my questions: what is going on? Where am I? Who is doing this? Why did they take me? When would I be free again? How the hell was I getting out of this alive?

The Hound

65 parts Complete

Antique store owner Liz brings home a Victorian taxidermy hound from auction, unwittingly unleashing dark forces on her wife and son. ***** Nat Loman has finally married the love of her life, Liz, and is getting used to her role as stepmother to Liz's 5-year-old son, Liam. The Loman family runs a bustling antique business so they attend a sale where a striking, black taxidermied hound is up for auction. Liz picks it up for the business, but it ends up being stored in their home, where Nat notices strange things occurring. She quickly discovers the past residents had died violently. Then she hears from a friend about the myth of "the devil's dog", a hound that perches in the shadows, tearing families apart from the inside. Soon, people around the Lomans are dying, and Liz is changing, darkening. It's up to Nat to save the woman she loves from the darkness closing in, and to save Liam from danger no matter what she has to sacrifice.
