You enter the hallway. it feels cold and the floor clatters when you take steps. the air feels fake and the lights feel dark.
you show the guard your driver's licence
they nod and open the elevator
As you walk through the sliding doors after the guard taps their thumb upon the glass scanner,
you hear overhead,

"Welcome to the facility!! The collective is here to πš‘πšŽπš•πš™ 𝚒𝚘𝚞. π™Ώπš•πšŽπšŠπšœπšŽ 𝚍𝚘 πš—πš˜πš πš›πšŽπšπšžπšœπšŽ πšπš‘πšŽ πš›πšŽπšœπšπš›πšŠπš’πš—πšπšœ.

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. Content and/or trigger warning: This story contains detailed scenes of murder, rape, torture, sex and stalking, which may be triggering for some readers. [[word count: 80,000-90,000 words]]
