《I am the Night》Chapter 18: Diana demands justice!
Advertisement
Wayne looked at Alfred and shrugged, "It seems we have a house guest for the next few days."
Diana brought her bags into Selina's room and then a few minutes later there was a scream from the room and an angry Diana came storming back out of the room. She raged up to Wayne and demanded, "Bruce. Credit card!" She grabbed the card out of Wayne's hand angrily and then she walked over and took Selina by the hand and said, "Don't worry dear, I won't let him get away with it. Come."
Wayne rubbed the spot between his eyes at the top of his nose, "May I ask what this is all about, Diana?"
"This poor girl has no fucking clothes!" Diana roared.
Wayne looked at Alfred like he should have been informed. Alfred cleared his throat and spoke, "Master Bruce, Ms. Kyle only came with the two bags, I managed to clean up about one more while picking up Kitty and Slinky."
Wayne looked over at Selina with a questioning look. Selina shrugged, "I never had much money for clothing. I spent all my extra money on Saint Swithin."
Diana looked at her and said, "Is that why you are wearing a tracksuit instead of real pajamas? Ridiculous!" She looked over at the clock, "We still have a couple of hours before the stores close, you're coming with me."
Selina allowed herself to be dragged to the elevator, "Do I need to change?"
Diana shook her head, "We'll get you proper clothing tonight, the things in your closet are only good enough for charity!"
"Hey! Those are my clothes!" Selina complained as the elevator doors closed on them.
Wayne looked at Alfred, "Is her wardrobe that bad?"
Alfred nodded, "I should have informed you earlier, Master Bruce. You two keep such a busy schedule the matter never came up."
Wayne walked into Selina's room and then into her closet and saw that only a tenth of the space was taken up by clothing. Even his walk-in closet was full. Wayne frowned. "Well, it's a good thing Diana is taking action on this, I am embarrassed that I only got her one suit. We should have bought a dozen."
Alfred rubbed his chin, "Perhaps another trip to the lingerie store?"
Wayne nodded, "Exactly what I was thinking, Alfred. But not today, we don't want to cross Diana's path accidentally. That reminds me since she is out I can get her exact sizes." He walked over and opened her underwear drawer and started rooting around until his hand wrapped around a solid object. Alfred saw his face change and moved over.

Once he saw the object in Wayne's hand he cleared his throat and said, "Perhaps we should leave this room and give the lady her privacy."
Wayne cleared his throat and said in a hoarse voice, "Yes, yes let's."
Diana pulled Selina along to so many clothing stores Selina didn't even have a chance to remember the names of them all. They tried on suits, casual clothing, pajamas, lingerie, evening gowns, and cocktail dresses, and each time Diana was happy with one it was purchased and sent to Wayne's tower.
It was daylight when they started and by the time they were getting ready to call it a day, the last shop they entered had already closed and reopened for them sensing a big fish. Diana herself decided to try on a skimpy nightie as Selina was dressing. Selina couldn't help staring at the woman. "Are you a Goddess?"
Diana smiled and murmured, "I would never claim such a thing in the presence of an actual Goddess."
Selina blushed bright red and asked, "You and Bruce, you are pretty close?"
"Oh, you want to know if Bruce and I have fucked?" Diana slid her arms around Selina and kissed her on the nape of her neck and whispered into Selina's ear, "Not. Telling." As she held Selina she asked, "What about you and Bruce, what's the relationship? Boyfriend and girlfriend? Fiance?"
Selina blushed and then said, "I don't know." She closed her eyes as Diana nibbled her earlobe, "I mean, we have done it, but only once and we, well I didn't even know who he was."
Diana chuckled, "Was he wearing the suit?"
Selina nodded.
Diana smiled and then asked, "But you are deeply in love with him, aren't you."
She nodded again.
Diana giggled. "You know, he is never going to bring that topic up himself. It has to be you. I can tell you though, that him bringing you into his home and sharing that secret with you means he has already exposed his true heart to you. All the other women in his life were only exposed to the Bruce Wayne side, letting you into the cave means you are special."
Selina closed her eyes and then said, "He let you in too, right?"
Diana kissed her just below the ear and then whispered into her ear, "Jealous?"
"I am, yes. You are perfect, what woman on the planet wouldn't be jealous if you kissed her man in front of her." Selina said, "Hell, I have been wanting to get between your legs since the first moment I met you and I'm not even a lesbian!"

Diana hugged her and then said, "I'm sorry, Bruce and I have always been like that to each other. He likes to play it up when Clark is around, I didn't notice he was trying to protect you from it until after I kissed him. Selina, you don't have to worry. I play around, I like to flirt as you can probably tell, but I don't steal men from my friends. I'm not saying I am not down for a threesome if the mood is right, but anything more than that, not happening."
Selina sighed and then said, "Diana..."
Diana smiled, "Mm?"
Selina looked down and said, "You... Your fingers..." She let out a soft moan.
Diana giggled, "Did I go too far, pretty?"
Selina leaned back against Diana, "No, don't stop."
Lazlo Valentin had been following his latest muse from the tower all over town as she went from clothing store to clothing store. He was shocked to find that his new woman had a friend that was just about perfect only she was too tall and muscular for Lazlo's taste. He watched them from outside of the store using high-powered binoculars. He watched as they changed clothes over and over again.
Lazlo saw they were taking too long in the dressing room. He paced nonstop getting angrier and angrier. Finally, he couldn't take it anymore and walked up to the shop front and pressed his face against the glass looking inside. He tried the door but found it was locked. He angrily shook the door.
Inside the shop, the cashier watched as Lazlo tried the door. When he angrily shook it she frowned and walked over and said through the glass, "We're closed!"
Lazlo paced around in front of the shop and then walked back to his car.
The cashier watching from inside nervously bit her nails. A laughing Diana and a smiling Selina came out of the dressing room and saw the cashier looking distressed. Diana asked, "Is something wrong, dear?"
"A creepy guy just tried to get in but the door was locked." She explained.
Selina's eyes turned serious and she asked, "Was he wearing khaki pants with an ugly orange plaid sweater?"
"Yes!" The cashier answered at once.
Diana raised an eyebrow, "Someone you know?"
"Stalker... We went to my old high school today and went into the chemistry class to have a look. The teacher started following us after we left. I admit I forgot about him until just now."
Diana gave Selina a grin and asked, "Should we go have a word with him?" She punched her hand for added emphasis.
"No, let's buy the clothes first, he's harmless."
The cashier rang up all the clothes and Diana took several bags to her car and put them in the trunk. Selina looked around and then spotted the Kia and frowned. She said to Diana not looking at the car, "Faded red Kia Spectra behind you. That's the car that was following us from the high school."
Diana nodded, "Your call, do you want to confront him?"
"No, I mean, all he has done is follow us and try to get into a closed shop. We can't say for certain he wasn't here to get something for his wife, right?"
Diana shook her head and said, "No, I can be sure he is following you. I saw that car three other times this evening." She rubbed her chin and said, "You know, Bruce isn't likely to be soft-handed once he takes action on this guy, are you sure you want to leave it be?"
Selina chewed her bottom lip in thought as Diana took out something shiny and golden from her trunk, "This is my lariat, the golden lasso of Hestia, anyone that touches it is compelled to tell the truth. Let's go talk with him, we'll know what he wants with you thanks to it."
"Seriously?" Selina looked unsure.
Diana wrapped it around Selina's wrist, "What did you think of the pink pajamas I bought you?"
"They looked like girly crap I won't wear," Selina said without thinking.
Diana giggled, "Then why did you let me buy them for you?"
Selina answered at once, "I didn't want you to think I was rude."
Diana coiled it back up and asked, "See?"

As a penniless orphan with no friends to speak of, life was tough for him in his little Arizona town in the '90s. He'd utterly lost hope for the future until one day, he was reincarnated as Alvanue, beloved daughter and heir to the Starlit Throne of Silthonduen. Now, Alvanue has everything a princess could ever want: a loving family, loyal comrades and an entire kingdom at her finger tips. But what good is a kingdom when there's a whole world of magic and mystery out there to explore? *** Ok! Disclaimer time. I do edit my own work and I do not have a beta reader, so please feel free to point out any errors or plot holes (politely, of course). Each chapter will be around 4,000 to 6,000 words long and while I was posting every day at the beginning, I think I'll cut that down to once a week for now, excluding bonus chapters! I really don't want to get burned out. I started writing this because I love world building, so this is gonna be heavy on lore. If you're not into that, there's still a ton of character progression and action to look forward to! It's going to be slow at the beginning, but I promise it will pick up eventually. Thanks for checking my story out, I appreciate it a lot!

The Shattered Circle
Aleyr Frostborn has survived a hundred prophecies of her defeat, breaking each one by slaying the champions of light sent to kill her. Amongst the forces of good, her very name is a curse, and with good reason. Beyond her own evil, it is said that so long as she lives, the reign of the Godslayer himself will last: the lich king who the terrified masses call the King in Black. While the kingdoms and empires that surround the blighted lands of the undead lands struggle to survive and beat back the tide of evil, the machinations of the Eternal Kingdom's dark court barely contain the bitter struggles for power between the forces that have made it what it is. With one foretold hero brutally snuffed out, another will inevitably arise. For Aleyr, the cycle only further embitters her towards the gods of good and all those who serve them. But the truth is that her downfall might be something much closer to home than their prophecies, those last dregs of mortality beating inside her own chest. With a thoughtless intersection between cruelty and mercy, she begins a chain of events that threatens to tear the Eternal Kingdom and her own loyalties into shreds. After all, many things can be broken, not just prophecies.
