~Sooooo this is not the first time I have written a story, but it is the first time I have written one HERE. I have only ever written stories at DeviantArt, but in here, I like that I can copyright my stories. Soo yeah... I just want to say, I'm the type of writer that will suddenly start bursting with ideas and write a story, but won't write more to it for months at times....Sorry for that >.< Soo lets begin!

SLAP. HIT. SMASH.

Carriane took the blows in stride, not even bothering to cover herself, knowing it would just make him angrier.

"HOW DARE YOU!?"

He screamed at her as he rammed her up the wall, holding her up by her throat with the side of his arm. As she started to choke, his rants grew even angrier.

"WHO DO YOU THINK YOU ARE, EMBARRASSING ME LIKE THAT IN PUBLIC!? HOW DARE YOU TRY TO HUMILIATE ME!!

Another slap. Right when she was about to black out, he threw her to the ground.

Spitting on her, he snarled out his threat, "You WILL do as I say, make no mistake on that. I gave you life, and I can certainly take it away."

He spun out of the room, slamming the door to his bedroom.

"Like I want the life you gave me, asshole" she thought bitterly.

Sighing, she slowly got herself up, using the wall for support. She couldn't do this anymore, she knew she had to leave. Before she thought she could leave when she was eighteen, only a short year away. But his new plan change everything. If she stayed, she would become his puppet, and there would be no way out.

Hobbling to her room, she quickly gathered up her meager belongings, throwing them in a duffel bag. Looking around her room, she saw her whole life up till now, bare walls with no significance, dull furniture that looked beat up and used. Not a single picture in sight, no sign of happiness shown. Turning her back, she quickly, but silently, limped past her Father's bedroom.

Pausing slightly, she walked backwards, stopping at the door. Placing her ear on the door, she listened for any movement of sound.

"Old bastard probably drank his sorrows to sleep" she opened the door cautiously.

The sight of her Father confirmed her suspicions. She slipped past him, going straight to his closet. She quickly looked around, gazing at everything till she spotted what she wanted. She limped towards the jewlery box with a smirk on her face.

Opening the lid, she she took a couple pairs of diamond cuff links, two 24Kt watches, and a diamond encrusted belt buckle.

"So this is where my college fund has been going" she thought dryly.

As she started to close the box, she noticed something sparkle in the back. Opening it up again, she gasped softly.

Tears in her eyes, she slowly picked up the ring, holding it in the palm of her hand. Gazing upon it, she couldn't help but admire the brilliance of it, a round red diamond settled deep into the center, with tiny blue diamonds surronding it, diamonds that had been chipped of the Hope Diamond itself. To finish it of, super thin 24Kt gold had been strung around the red diamond, giving it a flowing water look. The whole piece sat upon a tiny white gold band.

None had a ring like this, and few could wear the ring, the size of the band being extremely small. Luckily, Carriane had the same sized hands as her Mother's, and she quickly slipped it on her ring finger.

Gathering her things, she made her way out of his room. Stopping at the door, gave a last glare to her Father, wishing him the worst.

"Hopefully the next time I see you will be in Hell" she spat at him.

Making her way to the garage, she took her car, a fast Ferrari, and quickly zoomed out the driveway.

And she never looked back.
