"You hurt another servant. Three people, don't you think?"
"That's not true!" denied Selena, she looked at Damian seriously. "And then? What about the truth?" Damian looked at Selena, managing to bait her into explaining everything without the need to ask directly as if he was worried about her or knew that all the reports he had received were wrong. "They started first," Selena replied, starting to explain what happened that day. Damian looked at her body. He knew very well that Selena was the victim. It could be seen from the bruises that were all over her body. Which in addition to the purple or green, or bluish bruises, some of the red spots she left a few days ago were still there. And she still remembered where she had left them. "The point is, they baited me first. Made me feel like I had to defend myself. I don't know what they told you. But, I just put up a word fight. I didn't do anything, I didn't act other than my liA pair of fragile hands clung to the edge of the tub, but her hands slipped several times before she got a grip. Her hand movements were unsteady due to the excessive shaking. Which is what happened to Selena, when Damian was trying to catch his peak. Selena leaned into Damian's body, the remnants of the release making her limp. Damian noticed that and watched Selena who seemed to have no energy. Dan let her rest for a moment before leading her out of the bathroom. Both came out of the bathroom in their bathrobes. Damian rubbed his hair with another towel and approached his closet, grabbing some hair oil which he then applied to his hair. It seemed to be what made his hair thick, shiny black. Selena watched Damian, he was silent in the walk in closet.For a moment, she thought of Axel. After all, she couldn't forget Axel that quickly even though it seemed that sometimes she was no longer thinking about him. Because ever since they broke up, Selena kept herself so
Perhaps the only one who was kind and friendly to her in the mansion at that time was only one. The gardener who was cheerful and seemed to live a carefree life. She seemed to serve Damian sincerely, living simply in a small cottage built on the estate. "What's your name?" asked Selena as she ate the boiled sweet potato with gusto, it was really sweet. "I'm Xena," she replied, smiling sweetly at Selena. "Xena? We have almost the same name. Selena, Xena!" Selena looked cheerful as she met someone who was able to put anyone in a good mood. "Oh, right. I just realized that." Xena laughed. The two chatted while separating the garbage pleasantly. Until Xena noticed that Selena's face was covered in sweat even though what she was doing was not strenuous. And she wasn't outside the mansion either, she was still inside. "Are you okay?" Xena watched her with concern. "I'm fine," Selena replied. "You look exhausted, you better get some rest," she said w
"Keep tracking Axel's base! This time I won't make any peace at all." Damian looked at his men who now seemed to be gathered in a meeting room. "Yes!" They answered in unison in the affirmative. Damian held his forehead. Just a moment ago he was too fragile to think about something like this. He was getting better, but his heart still couldn't accept that what had happened a few days ago was starting to sink into his mind. Luca got a call, which made Damian glance at Luca as the man picked up his ringing cell phone. "What's wrong? You know I'm-""It's an emergency. Can you come back to the mansion with Master immediately? It's a real emergency and I think Master should know this."Luca was silent for a moment. He didn't know what made this sound like such an emergency and the tone of his colleague at the mansion also made him uneasy. "What is it? Can you tell me clearly now? We're in a meeting right now. And I'm sure Master won't be coming home for n
"Calm down! What's wrong with you today? You just had a great time with Selena last night. And as soon as you found out she was pregnant, you acted like that to her?" "So? You expect me to get all teary-eyed and hug her, then tell her it's the right time because my father is urging me to get married and have kids? And she got pregnant at the right time, is that what you're saying?" Damian looked at Luca with an annoyed expression. Luca sighed. He was also annoyed at Damian for speaking to Grace in such a high tone. While he himself knew that just a few moments ago, Damian had been in a bad mood due to being pressured by shareholders for his business. Lately, Damian has been rather unfocused in running his business because he has been using the available resources inefficiently to find Axel's whereabouts and intend to retaliate. The shareholders are of course furious with Damian's arbitrary actions. Conflicts between managing directors and shareholders are prone t
Dim light filled the room. A girl who woke up from her stupor slowly opened her eyes. Selena, who was tied to a wooden chair blinked her eyes to focus her blurry vision. And her face slowly lifted up to recognize the place she felt unfamiliar with. "Are you awake, Selena?" The heavy male voice made Selena, who was still limp, turn her head slowly towards the man. And found his form enjoying a cup of coffee. Selena hissed softly, feeling her whole body aching. She cast her eyes around the room again. "Where is this?" she asked in a weak voice, barely audible at all. "In the interrogation room in my mansion. I'm sorry the light is dim, because I like it not too bright for people like you." Selena hissed softly and straightened her shoulders. She looked very pale and unhealthy at the moment. Not to mention, this place didn't seem to have any sun at all so it was cold with humidity. "Who are you? Why did you kidnap me?" Selena struggled to ask. "I'm Damian, hello there." The man ch
As soon as Selena spurted the water in her mouth at Damian, Selena smiled with satisfaction. She loved the reaction of how Damian immediately turned his drenched face away. Although her smile disappeared as soon as Damian threw the glass in his hand in a random direction and swung his leg to kick her shoulder with force. The chair he was sitting on was unable to keep Selena from falling after getting kicked in the shoulder. The chair fell along with Selena. Selena's head hit the floor quite hard, making her hearing ring for a while and dizzy. Damian looked angrily at Selena, the girl had the audacity to spray water in his face because she didn't know who she was dealing with at the moment. And Damian's actions this time were aimed at showing Selena his ability, showing the power he had. "Fool, you're messing with the wrong person, and I want you to know that." Damian took out a handkerchief from under his coat and wiped his wet face. He looked down at the helpless Selena, tied to
Merry sounded angry when one of them tried to provoke her. The reason was, she herself did feel rivaled as soon as she heard of the arrival of a girl in the empty room next door. She didn't see her directly, but the words of the other women managed to upset her because of the way they talked about the new girl. Damian glanced at the angry Merry. And instantly, his desire for Merry tonight just faded away. Damian's moods were volatile, he was sensitive. And he was the laziest to deal with his angry or sulking woman. "I don't want you anymore for tonight. Rose, go to your room!" Damian stared at the woman who was arguably the quietest among the others, who had finished her meal and was closing the dinner with dessert. While the others were busy looking at Damian, Rose was still thinking about her own stomach. And for Damian, a woman on a full stomach was the calmest woman. He had learned enough about women in the 28 years he had been alive. And Damian's words managed to make Merry a
"What the hell? Let me go!" said Selena as she rebelled. Several of Damian's subordinates now dragged her up from the bed and unfastened the chain that cuffed one of Selena's hands. Then two of them grabbed Selena's arms and pulled her out of the room. It was obvious that Selena was rebelling from the way she held her legs and tried to hold herself up as her arms were pulled quite roughly. She was dragged quite roughly like that to the outside of her room. In the midst of Selena's rebellion, her eyes kept stealing glances at the rather luxurious section outside her cozy room. The corridor looked clean, neat and beautiful. Selena was forced to keep walking. Until she was confronted by Damian's six women. Selena frowned as she stared at the six strange women in her head. And the six women were staring at Selena with a look that Selena couldn't interpret. Merry's eyes were fixed on Selena. The young girl she thought would unseat her. But it seemed Damian's words were very believable,

Selena abandoned her intention to head to the medical unit and helped the other maids to serve snacks in the living room. Where there seemed to be some people Selena didn't recognize there. After that, she also prepared the dining room as lunchtime approached, the guests would have lunch there. Once the guests were seated at the dining table for lunch, Selena was there to serve as well. Several times Selena made eye contact with Damian and the two acted like they didn't know each other. It was really just the alienated slave and his master. "You should get married soon. At what age do you want to give birth to a successor?" An old man chuckled softly while looking at Damian. "You don't have to worry about me. Just worry about your life partner," Damian replied. And the man laughed crisply, as if taking Damian's words as a joke. He was Mr. Hendry, Damian's father. At which point, Hendry looked at the woman he had brought along to introduce to Damian. An elegant, p
Selena fell to the floor. Her head hit the floor quite hard and the thin skin of her temple was bleeding after being hit by the fist of one of the maids. The maid seemed to be panting while staring at Selena. In her fist, there was a ring that caused Selena's temple to hurt after she hit her. The fallen girl whimpered softly while holding her head. She then sat up slowly, her head feeling dizzy at the moment. As she sat and endured the pain, the other maids approached simultaneously. At that moment, they kicked and stomped Selena at the same time. They didn't seem to think about the consequences of their actions. However, it looked like that day they would be safe for a while, until Selena's injuries improved. Because on that day, there was news that Damian would not be home for a few days on business. He was going abroad to do international relations. Selena sat in her room looking at her swollen face in the mirror. She stared at the medicine box the butler had
Damian didn't answer Luca's question. He was also thinking about what he had really done to Selena. Maybe that was what he wanted, to hold her captive, to take away her freedom and make her his. While Damian was preoccupied with his work, Selena looked at her legs, which were covered in bruises. And the burn on her knee she was paying close attention to at that moment. "It hurts..." she muttered under her breath, touching her shoulder which was aching and sore. She looked at the mirror again, gazing at the reflection of herself in a rather gruesome state. The bandages she had put on her temples, her bruised cheekbones and the corners of her lips dotted with dried blood. Even when the blood was still wet, it felt agonizing when she needed water. "Hmfph!" Selena covered her mouth, as she felt something rise from her stomach. Selena was pensive for a moment, after which her eyes widened due to the nauseous feeling she was experiencing. She tried to remember the
Damian looked at Selena who was lying curled up to the right. She seemed to have fallen asleep after cleaning herself. And Damian pulled the blanket to cover her body, while sitting on her side, looking at Selena's bare shoulders which were quite beautiful from behind. The back of his hand slowly removed the few strands of hair that fell on her face and tucked them behind her ears with his fingers slowly. Once morning came, Selena opened her eyes and the first sight she saw upon waking was Damian's naked body. He seemed to have just taken a shower and was looking at something on his phone. Selena's face turned red and she closed her eyes again as she moved her body to face the other way. She had just woken up and her heart was already stirring on its own. "You're awake?" Damian turned to Selena when he saw her move as he put down his phone and faced Selena. "Yes," Selena replied as she reopened her eyes, but kept her back to Damian. "How long are you going t
