Selena's eyes opened in shock when she saw the figure dangling on the rope, for a second there she thought she was dead but then she heard her scream.
Selena didn't know what to think at this moment, she looked behind and saw Damien standing with his arms crossed as he leaned on the wall, unlike her he was rather calm and collected as he watched his men torture her.
"How?" Selena asked, she didn't even know what to ask right now, how was it possible that Damien was able to get Diana, to have her in this state.
"She was wandering about" Damien said as he stood straight and walked towards Diana. Selena paused for a few seconds but then she followed behind him.
Diana had been in this position for hours now, she couldn't feel most of her body parts but her senses were still intact. She carefully raised her head up when she heard footsteps approaching, a bitter smile formed on her lips when she saw Damien and what was worse was the lady behind him.
"You bitch" Diana cursed as her hatred grew when she saw Selena, but then when she noticed the look on Selena's face, a small bitter smile formed on her lips.
"What do you want to do with her?" Damien asked as he looked at Selena.
Selena sighed as she stepped out of Damien's shadow, she looked at Diana for a while and her hands itched to slap her so hard that she would just fall to the ground. Remembering that all those times Diana had brought those letters, everything, it was all a lie.
"Can I ask a question?" Selena asked as she walked closer but Damien held her hand to stop her from getting too close.
"She's not going to hurt me" Selena assured him but still Damien didn't let her go any further, he gave her a look that said stay put.
"Why won't I?" Diana asked, even though she had blood rolling down from her head, she still harboured hatred.
Selena didn't know what to say to that, she swallowed the lump in her throat as she tried to keep herself sane. Diana was like her mentor back at the agency, she was the one she looked up to. Selena had expected Diana to at least try to say something to defend her actions.
"So everything was a lie?" Selena asked, she had to blink back the tears that threatened to fall, her heart was hurting.
"Yes" Diana answered.
Selena looked at her for a few seconds and then she smiled, her hands turned to fist as she tried to stay calm. Selena walked in with good Intentions, she wanted to talk with Diana but now the lady had made it clear to her that she didn't want to talk.
"What's wrong, were you expecting something else"Diana said followed by a scoff.
But her words had earned her a hard punch on the face.
"Pow"
The punch was directed at her mouth, Selena couldn't fight the urge to shut her up, Selena smiled when she saw her spit out blood, she was glad her punch had an effect on her.
Damien didn't say anything but watch, he thought Selena was old enough to handle this herself but still he stayed close just in case Diana was going to try anything stupid.
"Did that help?" Diana asked as she spat out more blood from her mouth.
"Yeah it did" Selena said with a small smile as she turned her back and head for the exit, she had nothing else to say to Diana.
"You are leaving!" Diana yelled "They are going to find you and then they'll kill you!" Diana added as she watched the both of them walk away.
"Why did you punch her?" Damien asked when they got out of the garage, he held her hand as they both head for his car.
"I just wanted to shut her up" Selena said as she sighed. "We were really close, all the while I couldn't tell she was using me, I was blinded by trust and so even though at some point it was clear to me that I was being used, I still wanted to believe her." Selena said as she thought of something.
"I'm cold" Selena said as she clinged to his arm, she forgot to carry a jacket along,who could blame her though, she didn't have clothes.
Damien didn't say anything, he just walked to the car, the driver came out and opened the doors as they both got in. Damien was silent as he watched the driver get in and when the car started he turned to her as he pulled her closer to himself.
'Smack'
Damien kissed her as his hands wrapped around her waist and pulled her in closer. Selena wrapped her hands around him as she let herself get lost in his warmth, her hands tugged his hair as she pulled him in closer.
