clutch at somebody's heart

Inside she was quaking, a cold fear clutching at her heart.

Slowly he moved nearer, the hands of fear clutching at his heart.

Cold fear clutched at his heart but he still kept looking.

Often she'd stop walking to clutch at her heart.

For a moment I felt claws clutching at my heart.

A cold hand clutched again at the professor's heart.

The terror clutching at her heart as she knew who would be in command!

A cold hand clutched at her heart as she absorbed the truth of his words.

All the color drained from Silence's face as a cold hand clutched at his heart.

The terror clutching at my heart as I knew what it must be!
