Love Unbreakable by Bank Brook

Assuming it might just be her imagination playing tricks on her, she held her
breath and listened.

A second later, the noise grew louder and louder. It sounded Like someone was
trying to pick the lock.

Regan broke out in a cold sweat, and she felt the hair on her arms stand on end.
Raegan’s legs turned to jelly. Her knees began to ache. The only thing she could

Raegan looked around the room. It was empty. There wasn't even a place for her
