All Chapters of Beyond Broken: Chapter 41 - Chapter 50

Dmitry POVI turned the car off once we were inside my garage. Danica hadn’t said a word the entire ride back to my home. Not even when I asked if she needed to go to the hospital. She just simply shook her head no. And not once did she look my way.I placed my hand on the handle of the door but took it off as soon as I noticed the stillness of her body. She wasn’t ready to leave this car. And no matter how anxious I was to get her inside to check her for injuries, I had to wait for her.After a few minutes, she snapped out of her trance and said, “Sorry.”I winced hearing her say sorry. She had nothing to be sorry for. “We can sit here all night if you want to.”When she remained still, I leaned back in my seat and waited patiently for her to show me something. After a few more minutes, I finally heard the sniffles. Which soon turned into heaving. “I…have…to..go..back!” She said. “Rick is going to be angry. You have to take me back!”Her door flew open. Somehow, I knew she was going

Danica POV This past week has flown by with ease. Dmitry set me up with everything I needed. He replaced my phone and got me a new bike to ride to school. Though it wasn’t as fancy as the bike I wrecked, it was a lot fancier than my grandmother’s beach cruiser. I didn’t have any clothes or shoes, so he took me shopping once again. It took a little convincing but I was able to stop him from taking me to Lords. I didn’t want another run in with Angel. And I definitely didn’t want to have to throw away anymore expensive clothing. He took me to the local mall and brought several pair of jeans, shoes, skirts, and shirts. No matter how many things he bought me, none of it topped the food. I nearly threw up after eating four slices of pizza the first night we ate dinner. I hadn’t eaten that much in one meal in years. Even better, I slept like a baby. I didn’t have to worry about my father raging tempers. Was I going to wake to him ready to fight? Was I going to come home to find hm dr

Danica POVEnglish was one of the first classes in the day. It was also one of my favorite classes. It was the only time of the day I could truly escape. My teacher introduced us to stories that took me far away from Riverwood.Every week I could be somewhere or someone different. A princess escaping an arranged marriage ad starting a war. Or a fisherman trying to catch an oversized whale. Or my favorite. A great poet travelling the narrow sea.Yes, this was my favorite class and for forty minutes a day, I was in bliss. That is until Miss Titter called both Me and Lucas at the same time.“You two will partner in the upcoming biography project.”Lucas looked back at me with a smirk before turning his attention to the teacher. After she paired each person in the class, she went on to explain what exactly we would be doing for the last few weeks of school.“Each of you will be doing a full biography of your partner. From birth to now.”I winced at the thought of telling anyone my life’s

Danica POVDmitry wasn’t lying when he said he would be in late. When I came home last night, the house was empty. I placed the envelope full of money on his dresser. He’d given me enough money for a life time. I hated taking charity from anyone, but Dmitry made it hard to say no. He swopped in at all the right times. Exactly when I needed him.I showered, washed my hair, and pulled out a small book I borrowed from the school library a few weeks ago.I laid across a chaise sofa in his small library. I found that of all the room in his house, this was the one I liked the best. It had a chaise chair large enough to comfortably fall asleep. The longest wall in the room was full of books. I already had my eye on the next book I intended on reading.I lay there going from chapter to chapter as the night grew closer to morning and the only time I heard from him was a single text. “Don’t worry. I’ll be ready to take you to your interview in the morning.”I replied with a simple, “Thanks.”Wh

Dmitry POV Nancy was becoming relentless. I saw her last night. It was supposed to be a guys night out and she was supposed to be on a flight somewhere headed to Utah. But somehow, she ended up at the same club we were. I tried to ignore her. This was supposed to be me and Cory. I’d spent the entire week hanging with a girl, and tonight I just need some good ole drunken fun with my best friend. Not that I haven’t been having fun with Danica. I was. Surprisingly. But I felt that maybe I was enjoying myself too much. I had to remind myself that this girl wasn’t really a friend a mine. But as soon as she mentioned the job interview, I started to regret the day she would leave and that day wasn’t even here yet. I almost entertained the thought of calling Maci myself and telling her not to hire Danica. I know. Selfish. I mean it was crazy enough how she ended up in my life. But now we were living together. And somehow I find myself being happy about that. I was already more than happ
