It went wrong at the start, when you used the pen tool to create your path before turning it into a selected area. You had "subtract front shape" set in the options bar. So your selection excluded the area rather than containing it.

Change it to combine shapes if you do it again

Note : If you still have the selection you can invert it with Shift + Ctrl + I
