The Sting Of The Bite (Not Finished) by Bri Rose (easy to read books for adults list txt) 📕

tap let loose with a snap, and she felt a sting from where the tape had pulled some of her hair out. She quickly pulled the remnants off of her wrists, then undid her legs. The last part to come off was the piece covering her mouth. That one hurt the most, tearing a piece of her lip off. She could taste the blood, but that was the least of her worries right now. What she needed to know was if Damon was OK and what that noise was. She stood up and rearranged her clothes after her strange scoot-fest across the floor. Reaching for the doorknob, there was a thud that shook the whole room. She recoiled and remembered that Damon had locked the door before he had left. She needed a way to get through this door. NOW. The strange thudding noises were growing louder, but they seemed to be coming from below her. Was there a basement to this place? She didn’t remember seeing a door anywhere that could have lead to a basement. Maybe the door was outside, like some kind of a storm door. She sat on her bed thinking for a while, trying to puzzle out her situation. Maybe she could ram into the door and bust it down… But that wasn't going to work very well. It was solid as a rock. She glanced over and saw that the bedposts were made of sturdy metal. If she could manage to get one of those off, she could break down the door. She stood up and walked to the end of the bees. There were three screws holding in each post. But just her luck, the one closest to the door was missing all but one! She started yanking on the post, trying to get it to break free. After a few hard pulls, it came loose. It was heavier than she expected. This was a good thing, right? If it was strong enough to break down a door, then it would be strong enough to knock out anyone who came after her. She started beating on the door with the post, but it was tiring. By what seemed like the one-hundredth swing, the door had a big enough hole that she could manage to squeeze through. She headed back towards the kitchen and the front door, thinking that the only door that could help her was there. She walked in and found the place a mess. It looked like a wild animal had come through here! The curtains and tablecloth were shredded, plates were lying on the floor, shattered into a million little pieces, and the fridge was laying on its side. What was behind the fridge was what surprised Audrey the most. A door! But that hadn't been there before… Why was it hidden from sight? What was Damon keeping down there? A bear?  It sure sounded like it. She walked gingerly over to the door, bedpost still in hand, ready to swing if needed. She reached out and opened the door. Imprint
