Damian's Obsession

Narrow escape

My back was shoved roughly to a wall and I groaned in pain.
I looked up to see his hazel eyes staring down at mine. He moved his face closer to mine while I moved back in fear.
"Going somewhere princess??" He asked with a wide grin on his face.
I gasped in shock. God no!! Is this how I'll finally die??
I tried to run away but he held me more tighter than before. His grip hurt like hell.
"No tell me. What are you doing in a deserted alley??" He asked, attempting to move a strand of hair from my face but I moved away in fear.
"Please don't do anything to me. I swear I won't tell anyone what happened today." I pleaded in fear while rubbing my palms together.
"Who said anything about hurting you??" I looked up to stare at him in confusion.
"You'll let me go??" I asked hopefully.
"I never said I'll let you go. You just witnessed something you should have never seen. Why would I let you go scot free??" He asked giving me an 'are you that dense?' look.
"I only promised not to hurt you. If only you behave." He said.
I took in a deep breath. He promised not to hurt me. I just need to obey him, that way, I'll be safe. What could go wrong??
"Everything could go wrong. He's a goddamn killer. He has a friggin' gun!!" My inner woman screamed at me.
Right! I almost forgot about his pistol. I looked down shakily and saw him still holding onto it.
He traced my gaze with his eyes and chuckled when he saw what I was looking at. He pinched my chin and lifted it up so our eyes could meet.
"I wouldn't have to use this of you behave." He said while pressing the side of the pistol on my face.
I took in a shaky breath. I just have to make him lose the gun. That way, I can easily escape.
"Okay. I'll be calm." I mannaged to croak out.
"Good girl. Now follow me." He said and pushed me foward.
I turned to stare at him in confusion.
"I need you to walk in front of me so you won't easily escape." He said like it's the most obvious thing right now.
"Okay. Where are we going?" I asked.
"Where you met me." He said and motioned with his armed hand for me to start walking.
I took in a deep breath and started walking slowly.
"Faster!!" I jumped in fear when I heard his husky voice and started walking faster.
"Lord, if I get through this, I promise never to pass through an alley anymore." I prayed within myself.
It wasn't long before we got to the crime scene. Yeah, I called it a crime scene because the highest of all crimes was committed right here.
I almost puked when I saw the dead guy's body. Blood was still seeping from his forehead, where he was shot. I felt really sorry for him. He didn't deserve this.
"Don't try anything stupid." The interviewer said and crouched close to his body.
He started searching the dead guy's body again for whatsoever. When he didn't find anything, he stood up angrily. I just watched in fear.
"What a waste of my precious time." He muttered and brought out his phone. He dailed a number and started to talk to someone at the end of the line.
I stood in uncertainty as he backed me and kept speaking to someone on the phone. He was still holding onto his gun.
It would be better to attack now that he isn't watching. This is my chance. I tiptoed and picked up a rod that was close to me.
I did it really quitely that he didn't notice. Just then, I started having second thoughts. What if he ends up dead??
"This is the right thing to do. If I don't do it, he'll just kill you. Besides, he's a murderer who's holding you hostsge." My inner woman warned.
Yes, she's right. No one will bkame me if something happens to him. It's only self defense.
Just when if wanted to knock him out, he turned towards me.
"What do you think... arghhh!!" He screamed in pain when I suddenly used the pole to hit his armed hand making the gun fall off.
Luckily, it fell right in front of me. I was quick enough to pick it up and pointed it at him.
"Don't come close to me!!" I said pointing the pistol at him.
"What are you going to do? Shoot me?" He asked taking slow steps towards me making me move back.
"I said you shouldn't come closer!!" I screamed in fear.
"Do you even know how to use a gun?" He taunted.
I cocked the gun and shot a trash can that was beside him before aiming back at him.
"Try me!!" I muttered. That made him stop coming closer. Thankfully.
I took slow steps backwards and picked up the grocery bags I left before. I continued walking backwards so I would know if he's following me.
When I was finally out of the alley, I used my my clothes to ckean my finger print off the gun before throwing it into a trashcan.
After that, I ran home without looking back nor stopping to take a breather. I'll never oass through an alley anymore.
*************************
Damian watched in fascination as she left in fear. He held his injured hand in pain. She really has some guts and force. She really hit him hard.
After waiting for a few minutes, five hefty men dressed in suits rushed towards him.
"Boss!! Are you alright?" One of them named Grey asked in worry.
"Hmm." He grunted in reply.
"What happened?" Grey asked again eyeing the dead body on the floor in disgust.
"I need you to do something for me." Damian said ignoring Grey's question.
"First, I need you to dispose of the body and find out every sing detail about him." Damian ordered.
"Okay sir."
"Also, I need you to find someone for me." Damian said.
"Who's it sir??" Grey asked.
"Her name is Selina Cortez. Find her and bring her to me alive and unscathed."
"Yes sir." Grey bowed respectfully before turning to face the other men in suits.
"Selina, let's see how you'll escape from me now." Damian muttered with a smirk on his lips.
