Abused, bruised, battered and broken.   Autumn Gilfred, only age 17, has been teetering on these words for years.  It all started when her dad died. It was sudden. Unexpected. But hurtful to say the least.   Her mother became venomous, mad at the world but took her anger out on Autumn. One day she was angry the next day she was sad leaving Autumn on the cross-hairs of either being scared for her life or comforting her mother.   A real life roller coaster. Nothing could prepare a child for the things she's had to face but everywhere she goes a smile is upon her face.  Only she can tell that it's broken.    ~**I'm not that good at writing descriptions but hey, I promise the story is WAY better! :)** DONT YOU GUYS LOVE MY COVER? @writerSG10198 made it and it's perfect for this story!

She Hides Behind a Smile by lover_of_darkness04

Natalie opened her mouth to scream for her father, but Edward tightened the belt even more. He smirked widely at her, and pushed her over the bed. She started sobbing silently, choking and gasping again. She hung her head, and then he untightened the belt. He just grabbed her turn panties instead, and shoved them into her mouth. He took the belt from around her neck and undid his pants, letting his member out from his boxers. He then leaned over her, breathing lightly into her right ear, and spoke in a deep and lustful tone. "Scream, or tell anyone, and I'll make sure that you can never walk again. Understood, you little sl*t?" He whispered into her ear. **Just a note. This can get very descriptive and highly offensive. There is rape, abuse, and mentions of suicide in the story. So please, if you are a sensitive person, Don't Read The Damn Thing.**

The Billionaire's Ex-Wife by Enjoy_Little_Moments

Love. It was infuriating yet strangely addicting. It swirls in unknown waters, testing its limits before striking. The sensation of its claws digging into your flesh was all it took for it to become entranced. And then everything collapsed. Everything began to untangle. Everything slowly crumbled to ground. Everything began to fall apart. And you found yourself in the centre of it all, your hands cradling your heart as tears trickled down your cheeks, the salty liquid creating a dark patch on your jeans as it hit the soft fabric. You're vulnerable. You're scared. You're hurt. You're broken. But when you finally have the courage, to wipe away an trace of a broken heart. When you finally lift yourself from the dark pit you had created. When you finally patch together the remnants of your shattered soul. When you finally close your eyes. When you forget. When you become invincible. When you finally heal. It all comes back. Everything. Like an arrow that had been shot in your back, your eyes widening from the unforeseen attack. That's what happens. Because love is dirty. Love was the ugly, ever changing shadow that would snarl at you, jeering at your pitiful state. But then it was also the beautiful stroke of the paintbrush, as the brush winded across the canvas, the colours flourishing into life. Love was a demon, yet also an angel in disguise. That was love. _____________________________________ [ WARNING ⚠ : I wrote this as an inexperienced pre-pubescent so prepare for a cringefest.

The girl beneath the bruises by kindaextraordinary

Ashley is basically the Queen of Nerds at her stereo-type filled high school, and being abused at home doesn't really help. But what happens when the most popular boy at school sees her bruises? ______________ "Here let me help." It was Jason. He was in the girls bathroom, the girls bathroom. "That's ok." I mumbled turning away. The bruise was starting to show. "No I insist." He grabbed my arm and turned me around. I winced and looked up at him. He started to dab like I was doing, then he started to rub. He stared at my arm intently. "Is that a bruise?" He asked looking at me then the bruise and back and forth. "Yeah, I, um fell off my um...bike! Yeah my bike!" I said. He rolled his eyes and let go of my arm. "Well whatever just get that checked out." He said smiling. "Why do you care?" I asked. "Because I'm trying to be nice," Then he mumbled, "It's not like you have friends anyway." "Hey! That's not nice." I said furrowing my eyebrows. He held up his hands in a no offense motion. "I'm just saying you could use some friends." He said. -------------- Cover by @QueenCourtneyLynn
