Unauthorized Entry chapter 3

by Rebecca Moreno — My attention was fully focused on the TV. Seeing that I didn't say a word, the stranger spoke again, "Don't ignore me. Maybe I can make you rich. I've changed my mind.

Unauthorized Entry chapter 1

by Rebecca Moreno — It was supposed to be an ordinary night. There was no power outage, no water cut, no clogged sewer pipes, no quarrels among neighbors, and no lunar eclipse, meteor shower, or sudden drop in temperature.

To my relief, there was going to be a highly anticipated boxing match between Mike Tyson and Evander Holyfield on TV that night. This was a long -…
