Damien face still remained emotionless as he looked at her, a lot was running through his mind right now but still he didn't show it. Damien stretched his hand out to wipe the tears off her cheek but then he stopped in mid air, he remembered her reaction last time and so he kept his hand back.
"Why is there a bounty on your head?" Damien asked, her explanation was only leaving him with more questions.
"Why are you so interested?" Selena asked. "What would you gain from knowing all of this?" Selena added, the agency was a secret, she wasn't going to tell Damien anything about that.
"The report said that the body wasn't found, what happened?" Damien asked again, last night she had called out her mother's name, saying how she was going to die because of her, but her mother was suppose to be dead five years ago.
"I can't tell you" Selena said as she took a step back and leaned on the wall.
"You can't, or you don't want to?" Damien asked but he didn't let her answer the question before he continued speaking. "I can help you, if you want I can get my private jet and a new passport for you and your mother, you can go wherever you want to go, you'll be free from all of this" Damien offered.
Selena wasn't going to fall for his tricks, she was no fool, if he was willing to do all that for her then there have to be something in it for him.
"And what's in it for you?" Selena asked.
"Marry me" Damien spoke the words out like they were nothing.
Selena scoffed, at first she thought he was joking but when she saw the seriousness in his face she too had to straighten up.
"You cannot be serious" Selena said as she looked at him but all she saw was seriousness on his face.
Damien didn't have time to argue with her "come with him" he said as he pulled her hand and dragged her back into the room.
"Hey!!" Selena called as she tried to free her wrist from his hold but Damien's grip was firm.
Damien picked the TV remote on the shelf and turned on the TV, "watch" He ordered as he let go of her arm and took a sit on the small couch.
Selena looked at the TV as she read the headlines, her eyes open wide when she saw the video on the TV.
"Is that what happened last night?" Selena asked as she glanced back at Damien. "Why would you hold me like that?" Selena asked angrily as she turned away from the TV.
"You were drunk" that was all Damien could say, how was he suppose to carry a drunk girl, a stubborn one to be specific.
"How did they get this on camera?" Selena asked.
"Paparazzi probably." Damien answered as he turned off the TV. "point is, it's all over the news now, this is the first time the media has ever caught me with a woman and so they are trying to make a big deal out of it"
"How much did I drink?" Selena asked as she thought about it but then she shook her head trying to get rid of those thoughts, they were not important.
"Not just the news channels, if you check social media you'll see a lot more, everyone is talking." Damien added.
"Don't worry, give them a few days, I'm sure everyone will forget about it" Selena spoke.
"They don't have to" Damien said as he got up from the couch, he walked closer to her as he closed the distance between them.
"Marry me" Damien proposed again as he looked deep into her eyes.
"You don't know me" Selena spoke and then she laughed a little, she placed her hands on his chest as she tried to create a little space between them. "If you knew me then you won't be asking me to marry you" Selena said as she glanced at the time on the wall clock.
"There isn't much to know right? You are dead, you are a ghost" Damien said with a small grin on his lips. "But if you want, you can tell me things About yourself, I'll listen" Damien said.
"Is it the memory loss that's causing you to say all this" Selena asked confused, she tried to make sense of everything but it just wasn't working.
"You are trying to runaway right? I am willing to give you a new passport and take you wherever you want to go, I'll pay your mother's bills, all you have to do is marry me" Damien said again.
Selena didn't know what to say now, he was giving her everything she wanted and all she had to do was marry him, it was all too good to be true. If it was somebody else then Selena would have agreed but Damien, Damien Parker was not the man to do charity. The fact that he was so willing to help her, there must be a catch, and not just them getting married, Selena was sure that there was something he didn't want to tell her.
