"Aren't You Afraid Of Me?"

She was frightened to death. Her chest tightened. She froze staring at the calm and cold face of the dark devil sitting gracefully in front of her.
For a few seconds their eyes locked. A cold blast hit her face in those seconds, so cold that she actually shivered.
How could he remain so calm after killing a human fucking being. Emilia was shocked to see the calmness at his face as the same as death.
"He j- just died! Just because of touching me?! Just because he forced me to follow the order of this monster? W- why, I am s- scared? "I shouldn't be! As its normal now because I am living with this fucking "Mafia Monster"! She thought in the state of disbelief and shock.
She felt her legs froze at its place. She was unable to move. Her body was still going through a shock.
If he could kill anyone and any moment then how could she believe him in her case.
At his single gesture some of his guards picked up the dead body and left to be buried or maybe to throw that soulless body of that unfortunate poor servant of his, somewhere.
While other of his guards were still standing there and waited for their next order.
Rayven's face was dark in shade but calm in expression.
He lifted his gaze at Emilia who was already looking at him as if she'd eat him right away or captivate his soul with her glaring emeralds.
"Oh, Little one! Don't look at me like that! I'm scared" he said, acting like a scared child.
"Don't call me by that bloody name!" Emilia nearly shouted in rage.
Rayven's brows knitted hearing her dare to shout at him like that but he ignored her sentence.
Not a lie, if there would be anyone else in the place of Emilia who would make him taste hell in a second. But he was forced here.
Then commanded one of his guards.
"Bring her here," he said.
"Y- yes sir!" Poor guard got puzzled.
"Do I need to repeat myself?!" Rayven pierced the daggers of his intense gaze into his body as he said.
"N- no, sir" he instantly spoke, scared that he'd lose his life sooner than expected.
Situation was dire. There was a well one side and a ditch on the other side.
If he obeyed, he would die, and if he did not obey he would die.
Leaving the decision to fate, he moved on. Because death was written for him in both cases.
As that unfortunate person moved closer to Emilia, he looked at her with his eyes pleading.
"Ma'am please!" He mouthed, wearing a requesting expression. Emilia didn't want any innocent to die because of her. Someone was killed and she was the cause, this thought was already horrifying for her.
Emilia huffed at Rayven's wickedness.
She already knew that if the guard would touch her, he would die for sure like the previous one.
She did not want one more person to die just due to stubbornness. So, she herself decided to go to him. She walked forward towards Rayven while taking small steps, slowly.
"Move quickly or do you want me to get you here, myself!" He said with his tone ordering as usual!
He lips wearing a mischievous smile and dark eyes surrounding her he looked he eyed her up and down. His gaze fell on her hairs which were scattered on her shoulders. Then his piercing gaze stopped at her wrists.
He felt his heart being squeezed.
Her wrists were swollen and red due to the handcuffs and he was the one who had inflicted this pain onto her.
"What was he even doing! How could he hurt his love of life! He was worried.
"Free her wrists" he commanded the female servant who was newly hired.
She instantly obeyed and her hands were free of handcuffs in less than a minute.
"Ah, Sss" she hissed in pain after her hands were being freed.
"Are you okay, litt-
"Oh Shut up! Just shut your filthy mouth!!!First you do all this with me and then you ask "Are you okay? Emilia mocked him bursting with anger.
Rayven, who had gotten worried over her condition, got back to his usual cold self again while controlling his outbursting anger.
He kept quiet when she dared to yell at him. He was astonished that this little pea size girl wasn't afraid of him and was testing his waters again and again. Why was she not afraid of him?
How could she not think of the things he was capable of doing to her. Why was she so clueless?
With a lot of thought occupying Rayven's mind at the moment he examined her.
She was just simply unbelievable for him.
"Oh Emilia! My innocent Emilia!" He rubbed the area between his eyebrows as he spoke with his eyes closed.
"Aren't you afraid of me, that I can do anything to you or I can punish you so hard that you won't be able to move for days!" He opened his eyes blazing with icy flames, to look at her.
A smirk was carved at his face when he questioned that.
"I know you are a monster! And you hold that power to hurt me or do anything unwanted to me! So, when I know you are gonna do that anyway, why would I stay afraid! She spat in a venomous voice.
Rayven slammed his hand on the table and stood up as his eyes got filled with rage!
"Emilia, you're crossing your limits!" He growled low key while clenching his fist in anger.
"Look who's talking about the limits! Who is keeping me hostage,without my consent? ``she scornfully said.
"Why did you pretend to love me then! Why did you deceive me in such a pathetic way! You could refuse at first!" He questioned her, controlling his anger difficulty.
"Yeah, yeah! Like if I would have said that "Rayen, I actually don't love you and I won't, you could've let me go right!" She sarcastically spoke.
"Maybe after sometime I could do that! But you chose to deceive me instead!" He spoke sternly.
"So what!" She said bravely.
But her bravery lasted only for a few seconds when she saw him walking towards her, with "angry" written on his face in capital letters.
She felt her palms getting wet with the sweating.
She swallowed hard because she knew she had crossed the limit just now.
