In a world where emotions are bought and sold, the price of feeling has never been higher. The Price of Emotions: How Artificial Feelings Can Destroy Us takes you on a dark, chilling journey into the dangerous world of purchasing emotions, where the consequences are as twisted as they are irreversible. This collection of morbid, psychological short stories delves deep into the human psyche and explores the terrifying impact of artificial emotions, where feelings are no longer born from experience but bought from an app, manipulated, and consumed.

What happens when grief, happiness, anger, and love become commodities? What happens when people choose to buy these emotions in order to escape their pain or to find temporary solace? The characters in these stories discover the horrific truth: emotions, when artificially manufactured, become uncontrollable, devastating forces that warp their realities and destroy their lives.

In one story, a woman buys sorrow to mourn the loss of a loved one, only for the grief to become an unshakable, consuming shadow that she can never escape. In another, a man purchases rage to confront his enemies, but the anger grows so powerful that it destroys everything in its path-his relationships, his career, and his sanity. Each tale is a haunting exploration of how these emotions, once artificial, take on a life of their own, twisting and overwhelming the very people who sought them.

From a man desperate to find happiness through a quick purchase, only to find that the fleeting joy leaves him emptier than before, to a woman who buys love in a bid to fix her broken heart, but ends up trapped in an unhealthy obsession-each story presents a disturbing vision of how our need for control over our emotions can lead us down a path of darkness. These characters make choices they believe will liberate them, but in the end, they only find deeper despair, confusion, and isolation.

The Price of Emotions is not just a collection of dark, psychological tales-it is a thought-provoking exploration of the price we pay for manipulating our feelings, and the devastating consequences when we try to outsource the essence of what makes us human. Will we ever learn to live with our real emotions, or will we continue to fall victim to the artificial?

If you love hauntingly unsettling stories that make you question the very nature of your existence, this collection is for you. Brace yourself for a gripping, unrelenting experience, where the cost of artificial emotions is not just a financial one-it is your soul.
