I took the job because I was broke and the house had a recording studio.
Nobody told me the four men locked inside hadn't heard a woman's voice in years... or that my singing was the only thing that could quiet the noise in their heads.
The house sits at the end of thirty miles of empty coast. No phones. No visitors. Just me and four men too dangerous to walk free:
Wesley flinches at raised voices and folds himself into corners.
Gage cracks the walls when the pressure climbs.
Jesse presses his ear to the dryer just to feel it hum.
Cain watches from doorways and hasn't spoken a single word in months.
They haven't been touched in years. I'm the only one who can do it and live.
Each of them answers to a different piece of my voice, and I have to find every one.
Every time I sing, something forms between us that I never agreed to. The bond deepens whether I want it or not-and I feel it when they hurt. An ache with no wound.
The house calls it therapy. They want my voice on tape-recorded, filed away, played back for the men when I'm not there.
But the woman who had my room before me? No one will say her name.
They didn't recruit me. They were waiting for me... and now they have everything they need.
