Warning intense violence and sexual assault

Athena's POV
*SPLASH*
I jumped back slightly feeling the ice cold water hit my skin as a bucket of it was poured over Harley's limp form. She instantly woke with a startled gasp and her face took on a look that you would most likely see from pulling a face out of water. Feeling the many cold drips down my face I was brought back into reality and bringing my eyes away from Harley I stared into the face of a very furious Joker. It was terrifying how quickly his bright blue orbs had been replaced by black ink. I had never believed in demons but looking into his eyes I began to question everything I had once doubted.

I also felt incredibly guilty, he was hurting I knew he was. Nobody deserved to be betrayed by the people they were closest too and I the person who he should be able to trust the most had been a part of that betrayal. I didn't care that Frost sat that bloodied and beating, the guy was a douche but I did care for Harley and Joker. There was no room for taking sides, I understood what both of them were going through. Right now all I could do was survive this once magical night and hopefully bring the Joker around which from the looks of it was going to be extremely impossible.

"Get her up!" J hissed to his men throwing a pointed finger at Harley who still hadn't moved from the floor.
Three goons quickly dragged Harley up off the floor with such force a loud pop echoed around the room as her shoulder came of the socket. She didn't seem to notice or care, instead her attention was solely fixed on Frosty which infuriated Joker so throwing out a growl at Harley, he quickly turned and threw his fist into Frosty's jaw and that's when Harley began to scream.
"J plea......."
"Shut! Up! Athena!"

Gulping dramatically as my body started to tremble I shut my mouth immediately and instead stared at the ground

Gulping dramatically as my body started to tremble I shut my mouth immediately and instead stared at the ground. I watched my tears hit my dress over and over hearing Harley's wails for Frosty. Even if this was some form of trick to see if Harley had really cheated she had already failed from the moment she walked in. Her emotions rippled through her like an unstoppable storm and no matter how many times J screamed at her she continued to wail for the man she loved.

I needed to do something!
What could I possibly do in this situation though?!
From the way Joker glared at me I knew he was going to do a lot more than send me back to my parents this. In all honesty it might be best if he killed me as I know I would no be able to live me life without him, not now, not when I had given everything up to love him.

"How did you find out?" I whispered before instantly biting my lip, cursing inwardly at my outspoken curiosity.
"How did I find out?! Howwww did I find out? Now why don't you tell me that dollface!" He sang cheerily but cold.
"I....I....don't....I...I...." I stuttered over my words, twiddling with my fingers like some misbehaved child as his icy stare grew more intense.
"YOU!" Harley suddenly screamed turning to look at me with the most disgusted glare I had even seen.
"Harley?" I frowned in confusion finding myself taking a step back as her eyes also turned black and murderous.
"YOU TOLD HIM DIDN'T YOU! YOU EVIL LITTLE BITCH! YOU JUST COULDN'T WAIT TO GET HIM ALL TO YOURSELF!" Harley roared trying to break free and lunge at me.
"No Harley!" I cried out finding myself lost for words.
I hadn't told Joker!
I wouldn't have!
I could see that I was not going to be believed so instead of pleading my innocence I braced myself from impact as Joker signalled for the men to release their hold.
