Irene's PoV:
Before I could think further I felt my body getting wet, to my horror they pour the petrol over me and emptied the whole container over me. What the hell??
My mind froze as I saw Zach Accardo pulling a lighter and igniting the fire tapping on the lighter in his hand. His eyes were spitting fire more than that of the lighter.
Is this how I am going to Die??
"So Miss Iril Ranallo, as you can see you are all wet with Petrol and here I am holding a lighter in my hand, so if you wish to stay alive and happily marry the guy you have got into your trap using every possible move, sign the papers" he ordered.
I was scared, shit scared. My legs started trembling.
Yes I wanted to escape from the prison I call the house and that doesn't mean dying. I have done absolutely nothing in my life, I want to see the world and much more.
Hell I don't even know what the much more, I have no idea what is life meant and it's just yesterday I turned 23.
Now I am here with petrol drenching my body and this so-called Mafia Man ready to burn me alive all for some property, thinking me as Iril.
Why does everyone care so much for money? My family has lots of money, but that couldn't bring me back my lost voice right? I am still mute. Understand it.
"Miss Iril Ranallo, any last wishes?" this Mafia beast quizzed me.
I shook my hands trying to make them understand I am not Iril.
I fell on my knees and begged him, to spare my life.
He bent a bit down and lift my chin using his thumb.
"Arghh… look at you all tears and fear. Where did this go when your family has brutally assassinated my father? Where did all these actions go when your family has tortured my family?" he screamed on my face.
Tears were flowing out of my eyes looking at him growling like a devil.
He firmly held my chin, as I looked deep into his eyes all I could see is pain. His eyes held traces of tears and they are empty as if they are mirroring my pair of eyes at the moment.
I understood he was broken inside and all that coming out of his mouth and his actions is a grudge, my family must have done worse to him.
I felt empathetic and wanted to console him, or maybe cry together as both are going through unbearable pain. For a minute I almost forgot that he is the one who abducted me and is ready to take my life.
"You have done enough Miss Iril Ranallo. It's time you sign the papers or forget that you had a life" his voice, his actions every damn thing about him carried some powerful aura.
I can't help but draw comparisons between my Nana and him. I was always scared of my Nana, he carries the same powerful Aura like Zach Accardo does.
"You have been doing everything perfectly. But you must have missed the main lesson. Never defy the orders, so sign it or get ready to die," he warned.
Somehow, I am not scared anymore. I was ready as I knew I have no other option left and shut my eyes.
"Didn't we brief you, Boss? Just end her," the beast who dragged me screamed.
"Rest in peace… oops, Rest in horror" with his eyes spitting fire, he growled at me.
The lighter in his hand spitting fire, in a few seconds within blank of my eye, I saw the lighter from his hand slip.
He threw it on me and my mouth let out a shriek…. AN INAUDIBLE SHRIEK
My pupils dilated and I blanked out.

Zach's PoV:
"Boss…" Elif screamed.
I stood there looking at the girl falling back.
The fighter from the lighter is exhausted. After all, we threw water at her, she was drenched in water but this girl believed that it's petrol. How can be she so naïve.
All we did is to scare her and get the truth out. She tried hard to fool me and make me believe she is mute.
However, she didn't let out a shriek; even in fear.
"Max, do we have any information about Damian Ranallo having one more daughter?" I quizzed my men.
"No Boss, all we know is about Iril Ranallo" he answered quickly.
Yes, we so lack photographs, the main thing about Mafia deals is they happen in the background and when it comes to women from Mafia families, they take every bit of protection to stay safe.
I felt like a loser at the minute with this girl lying on the floor in her unconscious state. What if she is speaking the truth??
"Elif, we need a doctor right now" I alerted him.
"Which Doctor Boss?" he quizzed.
"The one who treats us" I screamed at him.
How come he turns dumb all of a sudden?
Nodding to me he jumped to the business.
I sat on my knees to observe this girl who calls herself as Irene Ranallo. Her face stained with tears, rosy cheeks, withered lips, and messy hair.
She is not any attractive or matching the features of women I actually see, but she looked cute.
I observed for quite a few minutes and carefully put a hand beneath her neck. Raising her neck a little I put my right hand below her knees and picked her up in my hands.
She didn't weigh at all, almost felt like carrying a light candy. I carried her to a room and put her on the bed.
She smelled worse, maybe due to all the travel, she is smelling like the sea.
"Boss" I heard Elif call and looked back to see our Doctor.
We do have a few specialists handy on this island for emergency purposes.
"What is the matter?" he quizzed.
"She is the matter and you need to say what the hell she is" I pointed at this girl.
He quickly took her hand in his and checked the pulse.
He held her eyes and pulled them up.
"She is so weak" he muttered.
"Since when was she unconscious?" the Doctor quizzed us back.
"From a few minutes" Elif answered him.
"We need to start treatment for her or else there are high chances we can lose her" he put.
