“No one thinks you’re an idiot, Selena,” I said, curling my hands up into fists at my sides. “Quite the opposite.”

What was his name? Frank? It’s a shame… He was so loyal to you, and for what? All he did was scream and call his wife’s name at the end.”

My eyes widened. “What the fuck did you do to him?” I growled. I tried to lunge at Selena, but it was no use. My body was too heavy, and I only fell forward onto my hands and knees like my limbs were made of wet noodles.
