The man ignored her lie and motioned for her to follow—his master had waited long enough.
"Hurry up." He barked with annoyance when he noticed her slow movement. Selina flinched at his harsh tone and quickly walked down the rocky stairs, almost stumbling over a jagged edge.
The man's gaze remained cold as he followed her. Leaving the building, Selina's eyes darted around the dim street, hoping for someone to save her.
Selina spotted a group of armed men walking past. She opened her mouth to call for help but froze when cold steel pressed against her throat, her screams stuck in her throat.
Her eyes moved downward to see a sharp steel nail pointing very close to her neck. She mechanically looked over at the man to see his fingers slightly raised and his gaze cold with warning.
