I really enjoyed your story until the stranger appeared and just touched the MC (the collar of their shirt) and the MC followed him without any resistance (following a stranger into a storage room where he could've done, god knows what, to them) triggered me, especially since I couldn't do/choose anything and just had to bear it. I couldn't continue reading after this.
I sincerely wish you and your story all the best, because it does sound like an awesome story, but unfortunately I won't be able to read it, i'm sorry :/ . Nevertheless, keep going you've got talent :D
