Trying to Escape

last update Last Updated: 2025-03-01 08:46:40

"But that's not fair! I told you everything I could!" snapped Selena.

"All I saw was the result, not the effort. Take her back to her room!"

Damian seemed to be heading straight for the location Selena had told him about. And Selena was approached by a man who immediately carried her body, because Selena's foot were not in good condition. Selena looked at Damian with a worried look, it seemed that she was starting to get nervous about her existence in Damian's mansion.

Selena was locked up in a room that was quite comfortable. However, the thought of what Damian would do next still made her uncomfortable. She noticed her foot, which were in a bit of a bad condition. It was very sore when exposed to water.

"I have to get out of here. That crazy man can continue to torment me." Selena grew restless and looked out the window, where the spacious mansion also looked unguarded.

Selena walked out of her room cautiously. Prayer realized the place was quite deserted. And to her slight confusion, the door to her room was completely unlocked. She then walked down the hallway of the mansion.

Because she felt that no one was watching the place, Selena then ran in any direction. She tried to find a way out in the spacious mansion. Several times she also had to hide because she almost ran into men who seemed to be Damian's men.

Damian was at the place Selena was referring to and checked the place with his subordinates. He chuckled softly as he found nothing in the place.

"Sir, it looks like they've left too. Selena doesn't seem to know where Axel went after they broke up either. Their relationship just ended after the breakup."

"Ah, so it was a waste to come here? Does that girl really not know anything about her boyfriend? At least she knows something more suspicious." Damian gave a disappointed snort.

"According to Selena's friends at work, Selena and Axel's relationship isn't very good. It seems like a mistake to keep Selena to lure Axel out of his hiding place."

Damian closed his eyes, showing he was desperate enough to ask for back the item Axel had stolen.

"What about where Selena lives? We should check something out."

Before heading home, Damian strayed first to Selena's residence. There, he wanted to find some clues about Axel's whereabouts that were completely untraceable. Damian and his men climbed some stairs to Selena's rented house.

Arriving at the house, it was locked.

"Open it!" said Damian.

His men immediately forced the door open by kicking it. And the sound of the commotion managed to make someone appear and approach them in panic and anxiety.

"Oh my, oh my! What are you doing? You can break the door!" said the stocky old woman.

"None of your business," Damian retorted sarcastically.

"Of course it's my business! This place belongs to me and it's one of the houses I rent out. Have you come to look for Selena? Selena hasn't been home in days. Who are you, Selena owes you money too?" The woman continued to rant.

Damian sighed. Obviously Selena wasn't home, she was with him right now.

"I think she ran away because she couldn't pay the rent this year. The previous months, it was her boyfriend who paid the rent. I heard they broke up."

"How much is the rent? I'll pay it, but let me go in first. I want to check something." Damian decided to let his money do the talking.

"Oh my! Who exactly are you guys? Did Selena commit a crime that you have to check her previous residence too?" the woman asked in surprise.

"Yeah, more or less." Damian wanted this to end quickly.

"Then you can come in. Check it out, take all the belongings if necessary for evidence." The old woman immediately opened the locked door.

Damian paid Selena the rent and entered the house to inspect it. A simple house that looked a bit messy.

Together with his men, they ransacked the house. Damian stares at the printed photos between Selena and Axel. Selena looked cheerful in the pictures. And it looked like Axel had taken her around a lot of places. And there was even a photo where Axel seemed to be getting serious with Selena, because Axel gave Selena a ring. That means there's a possibility that they were almost married before.

That's a clue if Axel loves Selena. What's more from every photo, both of them are equally cheerful. He don't know how there can be news about them having a bad relationship.

"It seems that Axel knows we've started finding traces of him recently. And my guess is not wrong if Axel loves Selena. That means, Selena is Axel's weakness. What we need, perhaps, is to threaten Axel with a little more wildness."

Damian grabbed everything he needed and took it home. He soon returned to the mansion.

***

Meanwhile, Selena, who was still trying to find a way out, was hiding under the table. She waited for some people to pass by and came out of her hiding place once it was safe. However, she ran into someone there instead.

"Miss Selena?" he called out, surprise evident in his tone.

"Oh, shit!" squealed Selena, she looked at the man with a little tension until she realized who was in front of her, it was the man who applied ointment to her just now.

"What are you doing here? You should have stayed in your room," he said sternly.

"I'm going back, I'm going back to my room." Selena didn't want him to report her to Damian and she might get in trouble if he found out she was trying to escape.

"If you're looking for a way out, it's not here. The exit is in the left wing. You stay away from the main door," she explained.

"Yeah?" Selena squealed, had she just been told the way out by Damian's subordinates?

"I'll pretend I didn't see you, and please pretend I never spoke to you." The man then simply walked away and ignored Selena.

Selena stared at the man's back in confusion. However, because she felt that she didn't have much time, Selena finally turned around and looked for her own way out according to the man's words.

And once close to the exit, Selena turned her head right and left. No one was guarding. She began to think that Damian's men in the mansion were not that many. She smiled widely as she approached the large, wide-open main door.

However, because she heard the sound of people coming from another hallway towards her, Selena turned her head and was about to hide first. She looked for a hiding place again.

"Selena?"

The sound made Selena turn her head towards the door. Where Damian and his men were already at the door.

"Are you trying to escape?"

    Selena turned to Damian and showed her surprised expression. And behind her, there were now many men who looked surprised by Selena's presence as well. It made them look pale as they were unaware of Selena's presence around the main door, which would get them in trouble for being caught off guard watching the inside of the mansion. Damian himself now showed no expression of pleasure or annoyance. His face was flat and he waited for Selena to explain the situation. He stepped closer and glanced at his subordinates who were behind Selena. "Why are you here? You know, this is quite far from your room. And, how did you get here without anyone noticing?" Damian looked closely at Selena. "Euh..." Selena became a little nervous, after all, before getting here, she had gotten help from one of Damian's subordinates who inexplicably helped her. "What were you guys doing that you didn't realize she was already here?" Damian looked at his subordinates. "So what if I int

    "Touching me? Hey, you can't be crazy!" Selena's voice sounded choked. Damian chuckled in amusement at Selena's reaction. In his light eyes, Selena's reaction was enough to provoke him, to do something further. "Why? Are you afraid? Are you afraid to betray Axel? I'm very curious how angry Axel would be if he knew I touched you. In my plan and my estimation, if I send him even the slightest footage of you and me... making love, he'll definitely give me the reaction I want. You are precious in his eyes, Selena. Like I value what he stole." Damian chuckled in satisfaction as he took off the suit he was wearing. And that made Selena inch backwards to get away from Damian. Selena knew full well what Damian would do. Fear filled her heart. It wasn't about betraying Axel like Damian thought. Although he had thought about it too, maybe Axel had appreciated her all along. That's what scared him. Axel, his first and last ex, he hated him. "Can't you think of the wors

    Fresh blood flowed and even dripped onto the ivory-white sheets. Selena's sobs were so loud, they could probably be heard outside. It seemed to hurt Selena a lot, because it was Selena's first. Damian's face was frozen. He couldn't give a calm expression to the situation. He just realized what he did a few seconds ago that resulted in Selena squealing and crying at this moment. The girl stopped struggling, seemingly in so much pain that she didn't want to move. Damian's hand that crossed Selena's slowly loosened. Damian straightened his body and confirmed it once more. After looking at her for the second time, Damian's hand swept to one side of her hair. Sweeping her hair smoothly and pulling it slightly. "Ah, what is this..." Damian spoke in a low voice. All Damian could think about now was the new feeling he had when he was about to unite with Selena. Selena had never done that union at all. Unlike the women who were Damian's mistresses, all of them were experi

    Damian walked out of Selena's room and stared at the deserted hallway. He then headed to his room which was located quite far from the ladies' rooms. He took the time to shower and clean himself up. Damian's mind was still in bed, with Selena. The newfound feelings he had from Selena managed to make him feel giddy during his time in the bathroom. Under the shower, he poured himself down, still feeling hot and horny. Until for the first time in a long time, he had to fulfill his desire alone. After cleaning himself up, he was about to go back to Selena's room. He don't know what hhe was thinking. But without realizing it, there was a desire to stay by Selena's side for the rest of the night. Before returning, he bumped into his right-hand man, Luca. Luca bowed in greeting to Damian. "You haven't slept? Where were you for the last few hours? We were looking for you, last time someone escorted you to Selena's room. Did something happen?" Luca asked. "Nothing. I

    Selena groaned softly as she closed her eyes again. Her eyes were still swollen from crying all night because of Damian's pounding. Her eyes still felt heavy and cold. "You slept longer than the average person. You slept almost 10 hours," Damian commented. Selena didn't answer. Her mind was blank. She remembered she had woken up several times. But because her body felt so weak and sore, she went back to resting. She didn't want to look at Damian, she still remembered very well the incident of last night that made her heart ache. Selena sat up carefully. And she realized her clothes had changed. She didn't wonder how, because she thought Damian had sent his servant. Damian watched Selena. Something had changed in Selena's face. Selena's gaze seemed empty and very vacant. She was also paler. It was really worrying. "Need help?" Damian raised one eyebrow, watching Selena's movements. Selena wasn't listening, she covered her ears from Damian's voice. As if

    "What's going on? Why did you come out of there? Since when were you in that girl's room?" Merry looked at Damian, it was clear from the look on his face, especially his eyes, that he was jealous. "I don't have time to answer, she's hurt." Damian simply walked past them and led Selena to a room some distance away from Selena's room. Damian left a residue of confusion. Damian hadn't been seen coming there since morning, which meant he was probably spending the night in Selena's room. And the word overnight was quite sensitive there. Damian had never once spent the night in the room of one of his mistresses. "Master... spent the night in Selena's room?" asked Rose, she seemed to want to make that clear. "Nonsense! He couldn't have done that!" insisted Merry, denying it quickly. "Ah, unfortunately we just saw him come out of there, carrying an injured Selena. I was once injured in front of him too but he only reacted by calling a doctor to my room, not taking m

    Selena stared at the medicine given to her by the doctor. She blinked a few times at the several forms of medicine that were presented to her along with a glass of water. "Drink that! You don't want to get pregnant just like that, do you? First, you're too young. Second, you've only done it once. Haven't you even enjoyed it properly yet?" Damian smiled seductively at Selena who immediately took one grain of the medicine after another and drank it. Damian watched as he crossed his arms in front of his chest. When Selena gave him a sharp glance, Damian turned his eyes around. After taking them all, Selena sat there silently. She stared at her legs that were unraveling from the gurney, not yet touching the floor. She moved her legs slowly. "When was the last time you had your period?" the doctor asked for the record. "Last week," Selena replied, looking up at the doctor. "Oh, it's bad enough that if you don't take your contraceptive medication soon, the ch

    Damian looked at Selena with displeasure. Her words about immediately making the exchange had somehow made his mood change. Originally, that was what he wanted. However, here in front of him was a pleasantly weak figure. "Stop crying, now!" commanded Damian. Selena certainly couldn't stop crying just like that. She kept shedding her tears. The sound of her sobs became even louder. Her hands didn't stay still either, continuing to wipe away her tears that wouldn't stop flowing. Damian knew it wouldn't work and snorted. He also didn't want to openly admit that he wanted Selena by his side for longer. And his mind came up with one surefire way to make Selena stop crying and make her more comfortable. The large hand measured the side of Selena's face and lifted her up. Selena looked up at Damian, eye to eye. Damian could see Selena's pained expression. It seemed like what he said to Selena was weighing on Selena's heart, which already hated Axel. Damian sat down

    "Didn't I warn you not to play with my future daughter-in-law and grandchild? I don't understand why you're brave enough to take such a risk." Hendry took a drag on his cigarette while holding the cell phone to his ear. He was in the middle of contacting Derek when he heard that Selena had been kidnapped from his son. ["What do you mean, Mr. Sagaras? I've clearly agreed to your words, in exchange for her not using my family's name and you not dragging in my family who have nothing to do with your future daughter-in-law."]"But what I heard today from my son is different. Selena was kidnapped by your wife." Hendry sighed, he was also trying to remain relaxed in the face of this and believed that everything would work out fine if everything was done casually and carefully. ["Selena was kidnapped... by my wife?"]["Look, I don't understand what you mean. My wife knows absolutely nothing about Selena. And she should. I wanted my family not to hear anything ab

    "What kind of atmosphere is this?" Damian got goosebumps after hearing what his father said. "Be direct and upfront. Do you know who's behind this? What you just said suggests that you really do know who's behind this."["Of course. Who else if not the Raguano family?"]"But how did they find out about Selena? I never even intentionally-"["I was the one who told Selena's father about Selena's whereabouts. Before coming to you, I naturally found out who the girl was. And it was quite surprising to find out that she was Derek's daughter. It's just that I was certainly confused about his unknown daughter. Finally, I and I talked for a while on the phone about Selena."] "How could you-"["Wait a minute. You should listen to me first. I warned Derek. I'm going to make Selena my daughter-in-law, I told him. So, he shouldn't try to bother Selena at all. I also promised to keep his family's good name as long as he keeps quiet. Most likely, Mrs. Raguano knew this too. T

And all she could think about now was how she should deal with this situation. Meanwhile, Luca, who was being contacted by Grace now in a panic, rushed out of the store with Damian. Damian didn't look panicked, he just looked annoyed and angry at the moment. "You just ask the people at the boutique to check the CCTV and tell me which way Selena went," Luca said. "So she ran off after everything she told me? She played me? I won't let you get away, Selena." Damian clenched his fists at the sides of his shoulders. ["I've asked them to check the CCTV and they've given me permission. In a moment, they're checking it."]L

    "Huh... always me." Grace sighed as she accompanied Selena to her room. "If you don't want to, that's fine. You just have to say it. I don't want to. That's it." Selena looked at Grace, she could understand that Grace might be sick of being with her all the time. "It's not like that. It's not that I don't want to." Grace was a little panicked that Selena thought so. "It's just... no. It's impossible to refuse his orders. But I'm happy to be able to take a walk with you even if I have to go to the hospital again later. Today, I'm allowed to take you out and drive." Grace looked excited today. Because she would be out with Selena all day. Selena was also surprised that Damian would let her go out for a walk just like that. It made her think about what Damian had said about who she would meet tonight and eat with. "He's going out to dinner with a girl. I think that's why he let me out. Probably so I wouldn't get upset or jealous. But does he really think about my fe

    Selena whimpered softly as Damian bit her shoulder. Then, Damian's lips brushed her collarbone, until Damian's face was on Selena's nape at this moment. The man sniffed Selena's neck, and kissed her as if it was a sign of apology after biting her shoulder. "Sorry, next time I won't talk about Axel anymore." Selena understood what Damian wanted. Damian only cleared his throat in response. But for now he wouldn't just let Selena go. He bit lightly on the skin of Selena's neck, which made Selena have to squeal softly.After a few bites, Damian sucks on the skin of Selena's neck in several spots. Sucking long enough to leave red marks that wouldn't disappear overnight. His hands don't stay still, Damian's hands explore Selena's body. Damian's breathing was labored, his voice getting lower as well. While Selena squirmed under Damian's body. She didn't resist. Damian's touch was much more but than she remembered, she had no reason to resist. After all, Damian had also b

    "You can cancel the reservation, why are you confused?" Luca asked. "I can't just cancel it. Even if I don't feel well, we'll still have dinner there. Did you forget that we have to go to Beijing tomorrow?" Damian looked at Luca. "Of course I remembered. I remember your schedule better than you do," Luca replies. "We're going to stay a few days in Beijing. And it feels like, if I just leave... Ugh, how to explain that?" Damian holds his forehead, one hand resting on his waist. Luca widened his eyes and chuckled softly. He understood why Damian insisted on coming to the restaurant. The guy was even willing to push himself like that for a girl. Normally, he wouldn't bother with something like this. While the two of them were still in Damian's workroom in the mansion, and Damian also had to check a few things because he had not been actively working all day. There were also some documents that he had to double-check. It made him have to be active at night.

    Alice Raguano laughed at the words of the woman who insisted on seeing her with the lure of a big piece of information. She laughed with amusement at this. "Who else would use the name Raguano besides our family members?" she replied while laughing softly with amusement, although there was a momentary anxiety in her heart.Meanwhile, the butler took something out of his bag and handed her a photo. An old photo of Selena taken when Damian was stalking her before kidnapping her. A photo that was enough to illustrate the answer to Alice's question just now. Alice was still smiling before taking a good look at the photo. She accepted it casually and looked at the photo. Her face had not changed at all as she stared at the photo. "Oh my, what is this?" Alice stared at the photo for a long time, her forehead furrowed as she felt familiar with the photo. Then, Alice stared at the butler for a while with a changed look on her face. She then stared at the photo and gr

    "Selena was not raised by her mother. I found her name on the orphanage list." The young man serving Derek handed over his tab. Where he had gathered everything he could about Selena. Some of the information he had gotten seemed very useful to Derek. What's more when Derek received the tab and saw the figure of little Selena among some of the other orphanage children. Which made him a little teary-eyed as soon as he saw her. "Orphanage, huh?" muttered Derek as he zoomed in on the photo of Selena. The young man had already improved the quality of the photo, which made it possible that when enlarged, it wouldn't be so blurry. And so it proved with Derek now letting out a long sigh, being able to clearly see little Selena, who quite resembled his daughter as a child as well. "She seemed to have just cried then." Derek looked at her compassionately. "That photo was taken after about a week of Selena's admission to the orphanage. It seems that life at the orphana

    Damian held his forehead, now his head was hurting too. Today he couldn't move at all. His body condition worsened after he contracted Selena's morning sickness. The feeling of vomiting was still there in his chest, but he really didn't want to let it out. "If you hold it in, your body won't feel good at all," Luca said. Selena giggled as she applied a fever-reducing plaster as Damian's temperature rose. She was doing fine, and felt better when Damian wasn't. This was the first time Selena had seen Damian sick, where he looked so helpless. "I hate taking it out. If I take it out, it won't be one time. There would be several more waves. Then, a few minutes apart, it would come again. I hate that feeling." Damian lay on his bed, paler because he didn't want to eat anything. "Yes, that's what generally happens. But it will actually make you better. It's a sign that there's still a lot your stomach can't digest. If you get it all out, your stomach will be empty and m
