Broken, Not Shattered.

Camellia-3

okay since I said that I'd tell you, the three girls are named after Hawaiian Flowers. Dahlia is named after the flower grown In Hawaii . Jasmine is named after the Cape Jasmine flower a.k.a. Gardenia Jasminoides . Finally Camellia is named after the flower shown above. the reason they are named this way, is because their mom is 3/4 Hawaiian and 1/4 black. also, in case you are wondering, those dates are when the story take place not the day I wrote them.

Camellia POV

Today, Lia & I are packing. I'm allowed to leave but dad forbade Lia & beat her for even asking. She is going to try to escape though. I hope she can. Liam Promised to help. he said

"Dahlia shouldn't have to go through this torture." Me and Jas agreed. we made sure to steal all Dahlias razors and knives. Just incase. She has way too many. there were 5 knifes and 20 razors.

I can't stand the thought of never seeing Dahlia again. she doesn't act like it anymore, but she used to be funny, talkative, cheerful,& basically real cheerleader material. Overall though, Jasmine tells me that jasmine was always protective of friends and family.

Now though? Dahlia is quiet, pessimistic, spiteful, depressed, & suicidal. She's still protective though. if I had a time machine, id go back and change Dahlia's life. I would've gotten those rouges before they got mom.

Tomorrow we move into the maikaʻi ka naʻau pack. they moved here from Hawaii. that's the pack mom came from. after she found out dad was her mate, she moved to the coeur noir pack. this pack moved here from France in the 1750's. you probably don't care.

one thing I wouldn't miss though, and I know it sounds bad, is her utter nerdiness. Like she'll be cleaning, and me and Jas will be in the Living Room watching Troll Hunters or something and she'll be screaming star wars song.

Dahlia has issues.

Dahlia's POV

"AMBER! GET DOWN HERE AND MAKE DINNER!" ever since this morning my dad has been making me do all the chores. before my sisters would help, but they left early this morning. I'll have my chance to escape later though. I decide to make I've decided to make him poke. mom used to make it all the time. I want him to be in utter misery at her memory when I escape.

| (this is poke by the way) | V V

After I've finished making it I put 1/4 of it in a bowl for my him, 1/4 for me, & half in a container for when I'm traveling to the maikaʻi ka naʻau pack. I serve him & I immediately see his face start to darken. Dad gets up to go get a beer. Because that 'totally' how to deal with your depression. I can't say anything though. I cut myself so I'm not much better, but at least I own up to the fact I have a problem. I decide to use this as my chance to escape out the window.

I put the poke in my backpack, check to see if I forgot anything in my suitcase, & Peak my head out the window only to spot Liam. He signals for me to toss him my suitcase, so I do. he catches it with an "Oof" then sets it aside. I figure I'm suppose to jump out next by the way he's holding out his arms, so I do. Is it sad that I got so scared on my way down that I saw my life flash before my eyes. Man... I've had quite the depressing life no wonder I cut myself. I knew Liam wouldn't let me get hurt though. he caught me without so much as a grunt. I guess I have official reached the point of weighing less than one hundred pounds. My suitcase is 150lb. Oh well. I must be way skinnier than I thought because I'm 5'10' (To Give you a better idea of how skinny she looks, imagen Zendaya as a zombie 1 year into the apocalypse that hasn't eaten since the start of the apocalypse. yeah, that skinny.) I Feel so bloated tough. Oh well.

He grabs my suitcase and I sling my backpack over my shoulder.

"Hey Liam, You want some Poke?" I turn to him and ask. He looks at me confusedly and asks,

"What's that?" I facepalm. Of course he doesn't know what it is. He's French and I've never let him stay at my house for dinner. my dad would either make passes at me or try force Liam too. We both know he's to shy to actually do it and then my dad would start arguing with him over things like 'What? Is Amber not pretty enough? I feel ya there.' he does that every time someone Feels awkward doing that sort of thing in front of my dad. If they decide to rape me they'd prefer to do it privately. Perv's with morals I guess. I also hate that stripper name Jenson gave me.

"Never mind Liam. I'll explain it some other day. maybe even make you some" He simply nods. I feel like he's hiding something but I choose not to press him on it.

"Welp. this is it. The pack border." Liam says turning to me. he wears a sad expression on his face.

"Yeah. I'll be free." I say looking ahead. Hopeful for the first time in a long time. that's when I hear sniffling. I turn to see Liam Full with the look of a kindergartener on the first day of school. Y 'all know the look. watery eyes, snotty nose, & reddish face. "Oh, Liam. don't cry. I'll see you soon. I promise. "

he looks into my eyes, and I look back. We stand there like that for a while the tension growing between us. He Leans in and I do the same. I close my eyes... and that's when I feel it. I feel his soft lips against mine, and sparks fly. We sit there slowly making out until I realize something and pull away.

"Wait, Liam. What about your mate?!" I say secretly wishing that we were mates instead of him and this mystery girl. His eyes widen in realization and he runs of whispering stupid to himself over and over again. I consider chasing after him but then realize that doing that would be warranting my death sentence.

Instead I turn around & finally head out of pack territory. It felt so empowering to cross over that invisible line separating my old pack and a new one which I've never even heard of. But I don't stop there, I grab my suitcase and start heading to the area where I assume the pack house is.

Once there I knock on the door and my cousin Jennette opens the door. she looks me over, at first with shock then with understanding. My entire family on my dads side knows what he does to me. Jenette grabs my hand and pulls me inside her pack's house and slams the door.
