At 10:14 p.m., Jaya texted her roommate: On my way.
At 10:16, she was gone.

When she wakes, she's not on the street anymore. She's bound to a chair, surrounded by plastic walls that drip with condensation, a single bulb swinging above her head. And she's not alone.

He's there.

A man who looks fine. Too fine. Tattoos inked like art, jawline sharp, eyes steady enough to cut through her. He doesn't look like danger, and that makes him worse.

He tells her there are rules now.
He tells her she's always been his.
And he tells her the truth: he's been watching her for a long, long time.

Told in two chilling voices - Jaya's desperate fight to survive and her captor's seductive obsession - The Watcher is a dark psychological thriller that dares to ask:

What happens when being chosen is the most terrifying thing of all?

Stockholm Syndrome

50 parts Complete Mature

Naomi Monet was a normal American girl living in residential New York. Her life was average; she had a boyfriend, family, dog, was attending university- when it suddenly wasn't. She was plucked from the streets and forced into a completely different life, being trafficked by a multi-million dollar company. And her captor? A morally grey man who goes by the name Brandon, tasked to keep her healthy, happy, and trapped. Will she continue to fight against his control over her? Or succumb to a mental decay which seems to slowly be convincing her that he 'cares for and protects' her? ________________________________________________ "So you're my handler, but are you also the one who kidnapped me?" He drew his gaze away from mine, back to his computer screen and nodded. "Yes." My heart sank. I was hopeful that maybe he wasn't the one who committed the act, but was only assigned to me after the fact. That way I could hold on to the hope that he's not an entire monster. Now I can see that he is, all the way down to the core. I swallowed my fear as I recalled the sensations that came over me when his hand wrapped around my mouth. A moment I'll never ever forget. "U-uhm why, why me?" I stuttered as I feared he'd snap at me for all my questions, but instead he closed his laptop and sat back in his chair. "Because you're pretty."
