'No matter what we breed, We still are made of greed

This is my kingdom come, This is my kingdom come'

Genna's p.o.v

Closing the door after saying goodbye to Luke i crept my way through the house, trying not to alert anyone. I made it here before my curfew so there should be no reason for him to be mad at me today.

I tiptoed my way to the staircase but never even brushed my foot along the carpet of the first step when his voice roared from the living room.

"IN HERE." He demanded. I sighed and breathed a shaky breath, before dropping my backpack by the stairs and walking into the room.

He was sat with his legs spread out on the floor, the t.v. remote in one hand and a can of beer in the other. The rest of the house seemed silent, making me wonder where everyone else was.

"W-where is everyone?" I mumbled, taking my bottom lip between my teeth.

"Out." He replied, clicking the t.v. off with the control and sitting upright to face me.

He patted the sofa next to him and motioned for me to go over to him. I now wished i had stayed in the library for longer.

I sat on the end of the sofa and his arm immediately grabbed my wrist in the exact same place as yesterday, causing me to wince in pain.

I kept my gaze focused on my bruised wrist, feeling his eyes burning into my skin. I hated the daunting silence, i hated this house, i hated him and i hated that we were alone.

"Who was that kid?" He asked, his voice like a deep slur. My eyes widened as i looked up at him.

"I...i..."

"Who.is.he?" He repeated, his face leaning closer to mine. "You didn't think i would see you messing around with some boy? Who is he?"

"Just..just...a f-friend" i stuttered attempting to back away before he grabbed my wrist again.

"A friend? A friend that you brought home?"

"No, no. He..he just walked me home i-"

"You thought you would get away with bringing some boy into my house without my permission." He growled, his grip tightening causing tears of pain to escape my eyes.

"No, no i didn't i-" but i couldn't finish because of the sharp stinging sensation on my cheek.

"Unbelievable. No matter what we breed you seem to think that you can just rule over us all don't you. Run around with your little boyfriend and hide it from me, is that what you thought would happen? Did you really think you would get away with that, huh, did you?" He yelled.

I couldn't answer him because i was chocking on my tears, my hands shielding my throbbing skin.

"Pathetic. I mean what exactly did you think you would get up to? Were you going to have sex under my roof with that scum..were you?" He pried my hands away from my face, but i kept my gaze locked on my lap.

"Because you don't need him for that Genna." He lowered his voice, placing his fingers under my chin and lifting up to face him.

"You don't need him at all." He smiled wickedly as i stared deep into his tipsy brown eyes.

I felt my breathing hitch when one of his cold hands landed on my bare leg, just below the material of my school skirt. I felt frozen, stuck staring at him as his hand began to rise up under the material. My tears silently fell and it felt like my heart was going to explode out of my chest.

This can't be happening, this can not be happening.

"D-d-don't pl-please." I silently whimpered, scared to move an inch.

It was only when i felt his hand on the band of my underwear that my head went completely numb.

When he had endured enough of me, he had finally let me leave where i ran up to my room, locked the door and cried uncontrollably, not being able to catch my own breath.

It wasn't the first time that he had ever hit me...but it was the first time that he ever 'touched' me.

I felt sick, my stomach erupted and before i knew it i was throwing up on my bedroom floor, staining my uniform in the process. I hated this, i hated my life...i just wanted it all to end.

I picked myself up and headed over to my bed, reaching under my pillow for the small silver blade that lay there. Opening my bedside drawer i pulled out the picture frame, unhooking it and taking out my picture hugging it close to my chest before i placed it on my lap, grabbed the blade and slid it across the old scars, reincarnating them, watching as the dark droplets fell on the picture.

This is it....

This is my kingdom come.
