The Emotion Collector: Awakening

In a world that has removed emotion to protect public order, Emma Thorne serves as a skilled Collector who extracts feelings from others before they can threaten stability. She has always believed she is preserving peace, until the day she absorbs a four-year-old child’s fierce love.
The emotion breaks through her neural dampeners and awakens an inner voice she barely remembers. What begins as a brief spark becomes a dangerous rediscovery of identity, connection, and choice.
As Emma uncovers the truth behind the Council’s emotional suppression system, she realizes the cost of enforced calm is far greater than anyone understands. Feeling again is not only forbidden. It is transformative. And her awakening places her at the center of a conflict that will determine the future of every living mind.
