Free but trapped (2)

"I.. I...dont know what to say." 

True to her words, Serena truly didn't know what to say. She hadn't agreed to any such offer, or give a definite to Dalia on her request. 

To be attacked by such accusations, it had her worried. The monsters around her had the habit of changing the way the story is told to make it as they wished it. 

With most of her enemies in the hospital, Serena could only wonder as to which of them fed the lies to Pietro and worry of the purpose of their involvement in her life. 

"I didn't agree to that.." Pietro placed his hand on her lips. "Shhhh," he shushed her. "I get it, you love him,  don't you?" 

"What?" 

Serena was beyond shocked. Love was far from what she felt for Damian, irritation,  was what she felt by the fact that Pietro would insinuate that about her. 

"You didn't deny it," Pietro claimed. "I will respect your feelings," he added.
