Some prisons are built of steel. Others are built on belief.
When an ancient being awakens inside a modern containment facility, control becomes a matter of perspective. The institution calls it research. The subject calls it patience. And somewhere between protocol and power, a bond begins to form-one that neither side fully understands, and neither can safely ignore. Blending clinical science fiction with mythic fantasy, this novellette explores captivity, consent, memory, and the quiet terror of institutions that mistake control for truth. Content Advisory This book contains mature themes, including captivity, psychological manipulation, violence, and trauma. Intended for adult readers.
