“Magnificent, isn’t it?” The gallery owner’s voice, oily and ingratiating, sent a shiver down Amelia's spine. She forced a smile, her jaw muscles aching from the effort. The artwork before her, her most recent series, was displayed without her permission. But, it wasn't the art that bothered her, it was the blatant disregard for her.

She excused herself from the conversation, mumbling something about needing some air. Her throat felt dry, and she felt a strong urge to get away, to disappear. The party, the chatter, the gallery—it all felt like a trap.
