UnBroken: A paranormal short story

His secret could get him killed.

Justin paints in secret to escape the brutality of his life, but when that secret is revealed, he’s forced to confront more than his fears.

She’s a face in a portrait, half-hidden and taunting. The moment Justin’s paintbrush touches the canvas, she comes to life. He knows she’s not real, yet he can hear her voice and touch her hand. Who is she and why does she haunt is every waking hour?

Freedom comes at a price. Even the most broken can find hope in the darkness.

When everything is lost, it’ll take more than a painting to heal.
