Broken - A Darkward Story


Howdy ho, my fellow Twi-fic fanatics. 'Tis I, Jasmine aka jazz2122 on Twi-Write and jazztastic1 on fanfiction.net.

For my first blog post, I want to introduce you all to my first ever attempt at a Darkward story. It's called Broken and is currently 9 chapters in.

Broken is a very angsty story that contains adult themes; it's rated MA for a reason. These themes include rape, violence, language and physical/emotional abuse. Don't like that sort of thing? Don't read it. Just a fair warning.

Edward Cullen is the perfect boyfriend, or so Bella Swan thinks. He's handsome, charming and takes very good care of her. That is, until one day, everything changes. He begins abusing Bella in every way he possibly can. She is too afraid to tell anyone because she knows they won't believe her. Even her own father, the Chief of Police, believes Edward is a model citizen. There is only one person who can save her...if he dares: Jasper Cullen, Edward's older brother. Will he get to her in time or will it be too late to save this woman who is broken?

Teaser
She was finally broken; I could see it in her eyes and the way she carried herself. The pain I felt in my heart for her was nothing compared to the anger I felt towards him.

He disgusted me and sickened me. How could anyone be so cruel? There was no reason for it, yet he seemed to revel in the horrible things he did and said, uncaring of the physical and emotional trauma that was heaped upon her on a daily basis.

I never understood what she saw in him. How could anyone be with someone like that. Someone who ridiculed and abused constantly for their own twisted pleasure? It bothered me to no end that she suffered and I knew I had to do something to save her, before it was too late.

There were just two problems with this whole thing: One, he was my brother and two, she was the chief of police's daughter.

How her father never knew what was going on was also beyond me. I would have told him to save her if I could, but her father adored my brother and I knew he'd never believe me. He was also rarely home, preferring to spend his time fishing with his friends or at the station working.

I loved this girl more than anything in the world, but she only had eyes for my brother. Nothing he did or said could break the hold he had on her; I assumed that was because she was both in love with him and terrified of him at the same time.

I couldn't stand to see her so used and abused. I knew, now that he had finally broken her, that I was going to have to be the one to save her.

If only I knew how...

  1. I loved this one. I think I've read the first 3 chapters and added it to my 'read when complete' list. Looking forward to it. I actually liked how you wrote Edward in it, I just didn't like him; if that makes sense...
