The runaway heiress

I watched the dripping of the blood coming through the leg of the man above me, hanging with the chain on his waist. I can barely see him in so much pain just by the chain wrapped around his waist as it is lifting him. The abandoned warehouse is quiet if only this man is not breathing in pain. All I can hear is his heavy breathing as if he is trying to live to survive from me. But no one could ever escape from me. I am the danger that no one can avoid, and I am the death that no one can escape. I looked above and saw the man's face aching with the blood on his forehead flowing down on his cheek. I smirked like a devil with satisfaction. I held out my palm under his leg and let the blood drip on my palm. I could not help but draw a smile on my lips as I watched the blood-colored skin of my palm. I love watching blood, this is my favorite part of the killing. I waited for a second for the blood to drip off like rain coming from the sky. The smile on my lips couldn't vanish as it poured.

"P-Please, have mercy on me…" He begged as his blood filled my palm. I sighed and wiped it on his black pants. I couldn't help but smile in this situation every time they begged me for mercy. I'm sick of it, but it's always my favorite music. How many times did I hear these words coming from different people?

I held the knife in my pocket and glanced at the edge of it as it greeted me with a glimpse of sharpness along with the gleam of it, waving at me. I ran my finger on the tip of it and smiled devilishly. This knife has killed a lot of people. I couldn't help but remember the different blood that filled this knife.

"But it's not in my vocabulary," I answered. My eyes remained on the blade and I can see my reflection on it just like a mirror.

"S-Spare me, Adi."

He begged again and again. His voice couldn't hide its fear in front of a devil, in front of his death. His legs are trembling, and even his eyes are filled with fear as he eyed his death standing below him.

I chuckled like a devil as if he was joking.

I slowly walked around him while continuing to play with the knife with my fingers, "I'm Adi," I said and smirked as my finger stopped at the tip of the blade, "And I don't give mercy!"

"AHHHHHHHHH!" The warehouse was filled with the man's voice screaming in pain and the laughter of a living devil as I stabbed the knife at the back of his right leg. The blood started coming out from his flesh and I quickly held out my palm to soak it with the dripping of his blood coming from the knife at the back of his leg. Some people love the dripping of the rain, but I'm different.

I love the dripping of the blood coming from the body of a human.

"Would you kill him?" I didn't bother to glace from that voice. I already know who he is. The smile on my lips vanished as I sighed and removed the knife.

"AHHHH!" The man screamed again. My brother was peevish, especially when he heard screaming from pain. Not because he pities them, he just hates it. As I finally looked at him after getting back my knife, my face went blank like a bond paper before I walked towards him.

I can't believe he's taller than me.

"Of course not," I answered like an angel, a fake angel.

"T-Thank you," the man behind me stated. My brother chuckled as he heard him thank me. His eyes went on him who's currently hanging like a piece of soaked cloth.

"What have you done again?" He asked and sighed as he examined the man. If he wasn't wearing that mask, I would probably see the satisfaction in his eyes. I'm not the only evil here.

"Nothing," I answered firmly, "I'm full of mercy. I didn't do all of that."

He sighed again and hid his hands in his pockets, "What have you done to be in that situation, man?"

"He tried to betray me," I answered instead.

He chuckled and shook his head.

This man was one of my people. After giving him his task, he dared to betray me and tried to give information to the other gang. But I'm Adi in the Mafia world, I don't get fooled easily. Just by the snap of my fingers, I can get him killed. And if I will be the one to kill, he should let despair embrace him warmly.

"You dig your own grave, dude." My brother stated.

"My lady,"

"Yes?" I asked as my chauffeur appeared beside me.

"I thought you're going to the bar?" My lips parted as I had forgotten about my plan. I think I enjoyed torturing this man.

"What the hell? Dad will be throwing a masquerade party at home, are you ghosting us?" I sighed and rolled my eyes at him. I simply get the gun from my chauffeur's hand.

"I hate parties."

I don't socialize with different people even without this mask. I don't trust easily and if I socialize, I was being fake as my father forced me to. As we live in the world of the Mafia, anyone can betray you. Everyone wants power, and they will do everything to have it, even if they end many lives. I'm an Austrella, we're Austrella. We have been on top for the past 10 years. No one has ever dared to block our way. They would never win, lay that on the rock.

"Fine, it's not like I can stop you." My brother said and sighed again. We both turned around and started walking. I stopped after taking three steps away and sighed before I quickly confronted the man with the bullet of the gun in my hand. The warehouse was filled for a moment with the shot of the gun. I smirked and threw the gun as the blood dripped off from the man's forehead from the hole that my gun made.

"She doesn't give mercy. How can you thank her?" My brother said disappointedly to the dead body of the man.

"Clean this," I commanded, "I want a spotless work."

"Yes, my lady." My chauffeur stated. They are not just a chauffeur, they are also the ones we command like a secretary.

"I'm leaving," I said to my brother as we both went out of the warehouse and stopped in front of our cars.

"Go on, make dad furious again." I chuckled unbothered by him before I drove my car faster until I arrived at the bar.

The bar of Mafias and gangsters. I wasn't surprised anymore as the music and different noise filled my ears as I entered.

"Adi!" I did not bother to look at Half as he walked with me holding a bottle of alcohol.

"Stay away from me, I know you just finished having sex with another woman again." I rolled my eyes as I sat on the bar.

"Tequila?" The bartender asked. He already knows what I always drink here.

"What? I'm not yet doing that. I'm a bit sick of it," he said and drank again. I laughed as I heard him saying that again numerous times.

"It won't work on me anymore."

He laughed as I said that. Half is in my gang. He kills cruelly, without any mercy at all. In my gang, he's the tracker and the womanizer who's addicted to sex. It should not be a hobby but he made it his hobby.

"You killed him, right?" I simply nodded at him.

"Half," a woman wrapped her arms around him, which made me feel sick.

"Let's end this night in bed." I closed my eyes firmly as they kissed. I was relieved when they both left. I was left there alone, drinking. I could feel how the tequila ran in my throat as I kept drinking. I had no idea how many I drank until I felt the weight of my body as I walked and mixed myself with the people dancing and flirting in every beat of the music. I knew I was drunk as I felt my world rotating around me but I still managed to dance until I felt a hand wrap on my waist and pulled me closer. I looked above as my hand went on his broad chest while looking at me behind his mask. I don't know what exactly happened as I just found myself moaning on the bed while he's on top of me, naked.

"F*ck! Ah! Oh, sh*t!" He drives me crazy to heaven. I'm a devil, but right now, I felt like I was in heaven as I felt the heat of my body along with the pleasure he gives.

"Holy sh*t, why didn't you tell me that you're a virgin?" He whispered as my face was crumpled in pain when his sword entered my womanhood.

"Should I say it after you enter that huge thing on me?" I said. He chuckled and moved gently until I felt like I was in an escapade again.

"Faster! Oh, f*ck!" I moaned until we reached the climax. He rested beside me and wrapped his arm around my waist. My eyes were weary and I badly wanted to sleep at this moment. But my eyes remained on the man beside me. I can only see his lips as we are both wearing our masks. My eyes went on the knife tattoo on the right side of his broad chest before my eyes fell.

The next thing I knew, it was another day and I woke up with a man beside me. I was already wearing my clothes but I could not take my eyes off the red stain on the white sheet of the bed. I bit my lower lips as I realized what I had done last night along with this headache.

"You're a lucky one," I commented before I left him there as if nothing happened. I just gave him my virginity.

I kept sighing as I drove faster back to our house because of what happened accidentally. He's also a Mafia, I could tell that to his mask. But I don't know who he is.

"Gab will not be a problem. He's prepared for this arranged marriage, Mr. Austrella." My feet suddenly stopped entering our mansion as I heard the voice of a man.

"That's good to hear. Don't worry, Adi will obey me. She's the heiress after all, and this is about power." I heard my father laugh and that was the moment I quickly realized his plan.

A devil's smile drew on my lips as I clenched my fist in furious.

"I'm Adi," I mumbled, "I obey myself."

I said firmly before I drove my car away from them. No one can order me around.

From this day on, I'm running away…

I'm running away as their heiress.

I'm running away to play the game they started.

I'm Adira Emerald Austrella, the runaway heiress.
