Internal cry by TheWritingUser

"How long has he been hurting you?" There it is. The question I dreaded, but I promised him I would be honest, so I took a deep breath and answered. "Seven years." I didn't look at him. I waited for him to pull his hand away, to hit me, to say I was disgusting. And as I waited my grip on his hand started to falter. ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ Kane is a seventeen-year-old high school mystery. Ella is a seventeen-year-old high school student with a hidden past and a torturous present. With a deceased mother and an alcoholic, abusive father, her family life is a mess and her future is unclear. They have something in common, the thing is neither of them know it. Ella has one purpose, one goal. She has to protect her sister. But what if protecting her meant she had to open up to Kane. Someone she had no intention to speak to for as long as she lived. As murder and violence taints her life, will she finally be able to trust him enough to save her or will she drown in her internal scream?

⚠️THIRD BOOK IN SERIES⚠️ Years have passed since we last heard from our favourite group of teens; it's been so long that now, they're all grown up. The incident with Joker was far from the last creep they've had to deal with, but last year, there was nothing. Their lives are completely different now, and they're all finally entirely in control. For some, it's everything they've dreamt of since they were young, but for others, not so much. They all went their separate ways when school ended, but perhaps there's still a chance that they'll see eachother just one, last time.
