Danielle Reeves only noticed the mirror because it lagged.
Just for a second.
Just long enough to feel wrong.
What begins as a strange reflection glitch becomes something far more dangerous - a hidden system that doesn't stalk victims... it processes them. Through missing minutes, stolen voices, and erased identities, Danielle discovers that people are not disappearing.
They are being archived.
As the boundary between self and surface collapses, Danielle becomes the center of something vast and inhuman - a mechanism that learns how to wear human behavior, emotions, and faces with terrifying efficiency.
When attempts to expose the truth fail and reality itself begins to cooperate with the process, Danielle is forced into a final confrontation that leaves nothing intact - not even the idea of victory.
But the story doesn't end when the last chapter does.
Hidden files, redacted interviews, and classified appendices reveal what was never meant to be public.
And the final page will make you question what it means to be watching... and what might be watching back.
This is not a haunted mirror story.
It is a story about identity erosion, quiet replacement, and the horror of becoming useful to something that never sleeps.
Read carefully.
Some reflections are not passive.
