Shattered. (Book 2 in the Runaway Series)

01. Tears.

There are a lot of mistakes in this chapter, I will fix at a later date.

Dedication for this chapter goes to @LadyoftheDark for guessing the name of the 'magic man'; Fergus.

This might be boring, but the next chapter I'm going jump straight into the story.

"Thank you daddy, papa, I love you both to the moon and back," Kristy said with tears rushing down hee cheeks as she said the words she used to tell them everyday.

"Bye daughter," Ashley whispered holding onto the sobbing Kyo in a tight grip as his own body threatened to collapse.

Kristy stepped inside the cab of her Mustang and sat staring at them a second before she closed the door and stomped on the gas, leaving the territory.

"We love you," The heart broken fathers whispered together through the fading mind-link as they watched the car disappear.

The second she left her parents' territory Kristy felt a sense of freedom unlike anything she had felt in years, though it was tainted with the knowledge she had left the two most important people in her life behind, heartbroken

***************************

Earlier That Day.

Kristy gently pressed on the large purple bruise that cover most of her lower abdomen, flinching away when pain pulsed through her beaten body.

A small whimper left her lips and tears stung her eyes, she refused to let them fall.

'I am not weak, I won't cry.'

Her bloodshot eyes stared back through the mirror with burning intensity, judging her. Kristy's pale hands skimmed across her stomach feeling every flaw that littered her skin, whether it be cuts or burns.

A pained sigh left her lips, it was beginning to be more then she could take, but Kristy knew she wouldn't tell her fathers.

"Kristy! Sweetie, come down stairs!" Kyo yelled from the her bedroom door.

She stared at herself a few seconds longer before she quickly dropped her shirt, covering her body afraid he might come see why she hadn't answered his call.

A fleeting look in her bathroom mirror assured her that nothing looked out of place.

"Coming Papa!" She called to him once she reached the threshold of the bathroom.

Kyo smiled sadly at his little girl - well she wasn't so little anymore - her dull green eyes that used to radiate with happy now stared emotionlessly, her striking raven hair now hung lifeless-ly around her shoulders.

No matter what Kyo and Ashley would always think she was the most beautiful woman to walk the earth, she was after all their daughter.

He and his mate had been worried about her for so long about her, they had let her be thinking she would bounce back or that it was just some silly teenage phrase.

But it had only progressed and they had no knowledge of what to do to make it better. They missed the little girl that used to sing and dance up the corridors at five in the morning, now they were lucky to see her smile.

"What's wrong papa?" Kristy asked knowing his moods, he was upset about something.

"We'll talk about it later, sweetie."

They walked to Kyo and Ashely's room were Ashleys' hulking form took up most of the huge king size big.

Kristy crawl onto the bed and laid leaning against his chest as Kyo laid down on the other side so she was inbetween then.
