Raegan, who was sitting wrapped up in Mitchel's jacket, heard the muffled sound of fists come from a distance. It was followed by the screams of a man.

Her body no longer trembled. She felt safe now.

Shortly after, sirens and the flashing of lights came from outside.

Some of the neighbors that heard Raegan's cry had called 911.

The cops slammed the man to the ground and put him in handcuffs.

Then, an officer came to them.

"The man has a criminal record. He pretends to be homeless so he can stalk beautiful young ladies before taking advantage of them."

Bloody hell! He must have seen Raegan cleaning the house this afternoon.

The officer's words reminded Raegan of the man's terrible face. She shivered in fear.

As the bad guy was dragged away, his face was swollen and bloodied.

He licked his lips at Raegan and sniffed.

"Hmm... Beautiful... You smell good..."

Goosebumps prickled Raegan's skin as she felt sick in her stomach.

Mitchel picked Raegan up and walked directly to his car. After strapping her in, he wanted to turn around to slip into the driver's seat, but she grabbed his wrist and said pitifully, "I left something in the house."

"Don't worry. We will come back for it tomorrow," he said, patting her hand gently.

ANGELA's LIBRARY

Hearing these assuring words, Raegan didn't say anything more. She just leaned back and closed her eyes. Her heart was still beating hard though.

Mitchel wanted to drive back to Ardlens. But now that Raegan was clearly not feeling well, he changed his mind.

He found a hotel nearby.

As soon as he walked into the room, Mitchel frowned. The interior was worse than any hotel room he had stayed in his entire life However, he could only make do with it because this was considered the best in town.

He asked the staff to change the toiletries and all the beddings into disposable ones.

Then, he ran Raegan a hot bath and told her to take a good soak.

Raegan stood at the threshold of the bathroom door. She didn't want to be alone in the bathroom. The lingering fear made it impossible for her to think straight.

With her shaky fingers, she tugged at Mitchel's shirt and asked something she would never have in the past.
