distopian escape romance steampunk thriller

"It's not blood that makes you human, that makes you alive. It's not the continuous beating of your heart or the genetics that run through your veins. It's the feeling of sun on your skin, the buzzing of nerves before one of your performances, the pressure of a kiss. It's your emotions. Isn't that alone worth holding on to?"
Sophia has never dealt with curiosity well. If someone starts a sentence, she needs to know the rest. Cliffhangers nearly kill her. Mention something she isn't educated on, and she'll be up all night trying to find out what. It's always been with her. But when she gets taken and is thrown into a prison-like cell, surrounded by humans that are part machine, and is succumbed to torturous rituals to turn her into a monster to do their dirty work, she begins to feel like she doesn't want to know why.......
