Melanie's POV (6 years old)

Mom never punished me, except this one time.

I was reading a fairy tale and suddenly Jen came into my room.

"What are you reading? " She took the book out of my hands.

"Hey! That's mine! Give it back! " I tried to get it back but she ran away with it. She ran to her room.

"Come on, let me in! " I was knocking on the door.

I heard that she was tearing the papers out of the book. She was laughing.

"What are you doing?! " I kicked the door and ran into her room. The book was in pieces now. It was my favorite book, I got from grandma. She died 2 years ago and she gave something to us. Mom a necklace, Dad a wallet, Jen a bracelet and me a book.

"How could you do this?! " I cried.

"What's the problem, cry baby? " She was laughing at me.

"Stop it right now! " I was angry at her. When I said this, all the lights in her room turned off.

I was just on the ground, she could only see my back. This was the first time when I experienced my demon power. Every object in the room started to float. Jen started to float too but just a little.

I broke her mirror and her lights and the sharp pieces started to attack her. I controlled my power. She was screaming.

I heard someone running. That person was beating the door and yelling.

"What's going here?! " It was Mom. The door was closed and Dad wasn't at home.

When I heard her voice, I stopped my power and looked at the door. It opened and Mon instantly ran to Jen. There were a few cuts on her.

"What did she do to you? " She asked worriedly.

"I-I wanted borrow her book but she got mad at me and tried to kill." Jen was sobbing.

"Mom that's not true! She took my book and ripped it into pieces. " I said.
"SHUT THE FUCK UP YOU MONSTER! GO TO YOUR FUCKING ROOM NOW AND DON'T COME OUT! " She shouted at me.

"But-"

"GO! AWAY! " She yelled.

I ran to my room and I didn't know that was I angry or sad. Probably angry. I kicked my wardrobe a few times and I grabbed the Mom doll and threw it into the wall. I also threw my pillow into the wall.

Mom came into my room and she was really mad. Probably at me. She grabbed my collar and pick me up.

"How fucking dare to hurt Jennifer?! " I could see the anger in her eyes.

"How could you hurt an innocent child? She is not a freaking toy! " She yelled.

"But she stole my book that grandma gave me and teared it into pieces. " I gave an excuse.

"And?! We will buy you a new one! " She calmed down for a second.

"You know what? " She gave a dealy serious look. "I don't care about you. I don't love you. So if I hurt you I will not regret it! 

-VIOLENCE-

She threw me into the wall. I was lying on the floor. She came to me and kicked me a few times. The best part was that she was wearing high heels and she made me bleed a little bit.

I was crying.

"Why are you crying? " She shouted.

She grabbed the back of my dress and she beated my head into the wall 3-4 times. My head was already bleeding, but fortunately I didn't lost any of my teeth.

Then she took me to the bathroom and there was our big bathtub.

She filled it with hot water in a minute and she put my head into the water. She was trying to kill me!

I tried to get out of the water but she was stronger than me. Then after a few minutes she took my head out and turned my face to her.

"If you ever try to hurt my princess again, I will not be gentle to you. " She said.

She dropped my head to the edge of the bathtub and blood came out.

"Oh, and clean this mess before Henry comes home. " And she left the bathroom.

Well first I tried to find a first aid kit and after 5 minutes of searching I found one. There was a bandage so I put it around my head.

I looked in the mirror. I looked like I was beaten up... Oh wait, I was.

I grabbed the cleaning stuff and I wanted to clean, but Bella appeared.

"Did... Did Queen Julia did this to you?" She asked.

"Yes. " I nodded.

"Oh my goodness, let me help you. " She said.

She took out some medicine and bandages and plasters.

She disinfected my wounds and put the bandage over it again. Then she put plaster on the places where Mom hit me with her heels.

She cleaned the blood off my arms, legs and head. She saw my purple circle around my eye.

"I am sorry, darling but that's all I can do." She said.

"It is enough, I feel better now. Thank you. " I hugged her.

Then we cleaned up the bathroom and the bathtub. Why the bathtub? On the edge of it there was blood and a little but in the water.

I took off my clothes and put them in the sink and Bella said she will wash the blood out, so I washed the blood out of my hair and I washed my face.

"You can go upstairs and change your clothes, I will do the rest." She said.

"Are you sure? " I asked.

"Don't worry. " She said.

I went to my room and unfortunately I didn't have that many dresses as Jen had. So I put my red dress on and went down. Jen saw me. She just smiled at me.

"You can smile now, but later you won't. "

"Are you done? " Mom asked.

"Yes. " I said.

"Great. " She walked away with a glass of wine in her hand.

I heard the front door open. It was Dad. I knew I mustn't say anything but I had to tell someone about it. Maybe Bella? No, she would never look at Mom as before. I don't have any friends, so this really sucks.

"Hello my darlings. And Melanie. " He took of his coat.

My parents went to the living,me and Jen were in the hallway alone. I wanted to go to my room, but Jen stopped me.

"Are you going to your room to cry? " she said.

"Are you going to shut the fuck up? " I said and turned to her. " Because if you don't, I promise I will kill you next time. "

"Oh, and I don't care if you tell Mom, it doesn't matter to me. " Then I went up.

I told Fanny everything, it would be better if she talked back. Mom and Dad said that I can't have friends, but i don't know why.

Today's dinner was different. We had a long table in our dining room and chairs around it. There were chairs right next to the wall (because the table was in the middle of the room).

My parents said I can sit on the chairs next to the wall, maybe I couldn't eat on the table but I could have dinner with my family.

They were talking about their kingdom and stuff when Dad said...

"What the hell happened to Melanie?"
"She, uhhh... fell down the stairs. I told you not to run down the stairs." Mom said.

"Ohhh. I see. " He didn't really care about me or what happened to me. It didn't suprised me at all.

I washed my plate and took a quick shower. I was just wondering if I ever live my 18th birthday. Because if my mom continue doing this, I will not survive long.

I had to hurry, because if I am not in my bed, sleeping at 8pm, my parents will close the door and I have to sleep in the backyard or on the floor or on the couch.

I ran upstairs, jumped right into my bed (which hurt a little bit) and turn off the lights. Fanny was with me now, so there was no fear.

"Good night. "

I didn't know who was it but it was a woman's voice. Could it be Bella? Or Mom?! Or just a maid.

Well, I was sure excited, because next week was the week, when I finally start school.
