Selena bit her lips hard as she looked at her reflection in the mirror, she had changed into a blue high waist jean and paired it with a black woolen turtle neck shirt.
"You look beautiful" Damien commented as he stood behind her, he helped her put on the silver necklace Alfred had bought.
"Why are we going to the magistrate office?" Selena asked.
"To get married" Damien answered as he dropped his hands down and looked at her one last time before walking out the closet, he was already dressed.
Selena sighed as she loosened the ponytail, she let her hair fall down to her back, she had talked to Diana on the phone while Damien was still downstairs. If all goes well then this would probably be the last time she would see Damien.
Selena sighed as she wiped the tear drop that rolled down her cheek, Diana had promised her that her mother was okay now. That was a relief to Selena, she was so glad to have someone like Diana around.
"Just a few more hours" Selena told herself, she took a deep breath and calmed her nerves, her palms were sweaty.
"Let's go" Damien said as he opened the doors and looked at her, he could see the trail of tears on her cheek.
"Privacy" Selena said in shock as she wiped her tears with her palm.
Damien didn't say anything, he just leaned on the door frame as he observed her. "Are you really that much of a softy?" Damien asked as he reached his hand to his pocket and brought out a handkerchief. "Here" he added as he stretched his hand with the handkerchief in it.
"Why were you crying?" Damien asked, his voice was cold, he tone didn't show interest in the subject but still he asked anyway.
"Why would you care?" Selena asked as she looked at him.
Selena had been trying to make sense of everything but no matter how she thought about it, it just didn't add up. Selena was no fool, she knew that by now Xavier must have known that she lied, so why the hell is he still being nice to her.
"I don't" Damien answered, not bothering to hide his disinterest, he was only asking because he thought that was the right thing to do. "Common let's go"
"I don't want to get married to you" Selena retorted, Damien wasn't giving her a choice here. He just asked her to follow him to the magistrate office, of course she knew exactly what people do there.
"You have to" Damien responded.
"What do you mean?" Selena asked with raised brows, he seem so confident like she didn't have a choice right now.
Damien reached his hand out and brought out something from his pocket, he threw it and as expected Selena caught it.
"How did you get this?" Selena asked as she looked at the thumbdrive, she had thought she lost it in the bar.
"You gave it to me at the bar the other night, while you were crying and calling out for your mother " Damien spoke as he studied her expression, he noticed the surpised look on her face before she cursed and bit her lips.
"You want to explain to me now, or you want to go to the magistrate office first?" Damien asked.
"If you know everything then why am I still here?" Selena asked, if truly he did know about the thumb drive then why was he keeping her here.
"Well" Damien started as he walked in and closed the door. "I don't know everything Mrs Kyle" Damien added as he got closer to her.
"You did research" Selena said followed by a scoff, 'of course he did research, Damien wasn't dumb'
"Well I may have lost some of my memories but I still remember how to use the Internet"Damien answered. "According to research you died five years ago, you were in a car accident with your mum" Damien spoke the words carefully knowing how much it affected her. "No one found the body" Damien added, he noticed how she was slowly breaking, he could see that she was fighting to keep her cool in front of him but Damien could see past the mask.
"What's your point?" Selena asked as she shot at him. She didn't need anyone to tell her background story again, she had already heard enough.
"Why are you here?" Damien asked, Selena had so many chance to run away from here, she could have run off, go do whatever she wanted to do. So why then did she choose to stay here, what was it that she was looking for.
"I'm not here by choice" Selena answered. If she could then she would have walked out of here so many times, she could have sneaked out without him knowing, she had the chance to do it.
"From the way I see it, you've had so many opportunities to walk away from here, I didn't tie you down to my bed, I didn't lock the doors, you escaped before and you can still do it again, so why are you here?" Damien asked again.
"Because I don't want to die!!" Selena snapped, the man had forced the words right out of her mouth. "There's a bounty on my head, if I take one step outside this house then that's it for me." Selena said half yelling as her anger came out.
