Synopsis
In a dystopian future, desire is no longer private. Pleasure, fear, and pain are harvested by an AI called the Cube, turned into power through neural implants and simulations. Most people live drained and obedient. Only the elite can still buy authentic sensation—real emotion, not the sanctioned substitute—from illegal escorts known as Skinners.
Sienna was a Cube Neurologist. Now she works the underbelly. She is highly skilled in sex and in extraction: she knows how to open a client, take them apart, and pull a feeling the machine cannot fake. That is her trade.
