Maid for the Mafia Boss

“So what exactly happened?” Theo asked as we went inside the V. I. P. room we’re directed to. He’s carrying a tray of different drinks and shot glasses.

Erick was eating some snacks while Steven and Devon were talking. Zeke’s got his attention at his phone while Keian was leaning on to my shoulder while hugging me from the back, with his eyes closed.

Theo placed the tray and sat beside Erick. The five of us turned to Theo. Whereas the four men let out a sigh.

“Some civilian was caught up in our operation, so we needed to do something about it.” Replied Devon with his arms crossed to his chest. Erick looks at him in disbelief.

“Really? But you were really caught. They just included the civilians ’cause they also wanted to catch me.” Devon gasps, casting a glare at Erick.

“Hey! That’s not true!”

“You can actually handle yourselves, but why did you have to call for backup?” Steven intervenes and pouted.

“Oh come on, you were so worried for them.” Steven’s eyes widened as he looked at Theo who just smiled at him.

“That’s not the case!”

“That’s alright, Steven. We love you, too.” Erick innocently pats Steven on the back like a child.

“Erick! Yuck! You’re so cliché!” I can’t help but beam as I watch them getting into each other’s nerves.

“Tsk. So noisy. When can I get some rest from them?” Complained the man who just tightened his grip on me. I let out a sarcastic smile.

“Could you remove your arms around me?” He shook his head like a child. Seriously! He’s been PDA to me all day! I swear I’m red like a tomato here and I can’t move freely. He’s so annoying.

“No. I’m tired. Let me rest.” He shortly stated. I face-palmed and let out a sigh.

“What am I to you anyway?” He stopped for a bit upon hearing my question but he returned back to his cold expression immediately. I should’ve just kept the question to myself. After all I know the answer all along.

“You’re my maid.” I avoided eye contact with him. I knew it. I’m not suppose to feel this way but it actually hurts in the chest.

“Ow, right, a maid.” I bit my lip. He looked up to me and held my chin to let me face him.

“And the girl I want to look at everyday. The girl I want to be with.” Ehh?? I’m just looking through his eyes. Why? What’s with the words he’s saying? Why is my chest feeling pain earlier and now my heart is beating frantically. I could even feel something in my stomach. Huh? Is it something that I ate?

“Guys, we get it okay? Yes, we don’t have any girlfriends. We are all alone so don’t you dare do those stuff in front of us!” Devon stood up, pointing at us. I shamefully lowered my head.

“You’re not alone. My mafia is there for you.” I turned to what Keian just said. Am I hearing his words correctly?

“You don’t get it, Kei. I mean a girlfrie— wait, what did you say?” All of our eyes turned to Keian who tried to maintain a blank expression but I noticed a smile creeping from his face.

“Nothing. Just forget I said anything.”

The six of us looked at each other and laughed at the same time.

“Awww. Maître is so sweet.” Kei throws a glare at Steven who just gestured a peace sign. I think, I can manage to be with them for a while.

It’s been days since that scene at the bar with Theo, I just realized it the next day that he’s actually the owner of that club. But I wasn’t surprised since he’s quite fortunate himself. Right now I’m lying on my bed at the maid’s quarters. Tiya and I are having a video call while Brylle was asleep so I couldn’t talk to him.

“By the way, Nassandra. Where are you taking Brylle tomorrow? The minute he woke up, his eyes were already shimmering. Such a cute child.” My smile disappeared as my eyes widened.This content is © NôvelDrama.Org.

Shoot! It’s his birthday tomorrow!

Tiya noticed my facial expression then suddenly got worried.

“It is Brylle’s birthday tomorrow and I almost forgot about it.” I sighed. If Tiya didn’t mention it to me, I’d forget the special day tomorrow and Brylle will be upset for sure.

“Aw, Nassandra. Are you doing alright there? Truth is, it’s the first time you forgot about his birthday.” I nodded at her in reassurance.

“I’m sorry, I was just thinking about a lot of stuff.” Tiya furrowed her eyebrows and I noticed she shifted position.

“Could it be you’re too overworked? Is your boss treating you well? If not, don’t ever hesitate to tell, we’ll directly report that to the police!” I laughed at Tiya’s tone as she’s like a vendor gossiping.

“I’m okay here. You should be the one taking care of yourselves.” Tiya shook her head.

“You don’t have to worry about us, Nassandra. Just focus there at your work, okay?” I smiled at her and give a thumbs-up. I suddenly remembered what she asked me earlier.

“Also, Tiya.”

“Hmm? Why?” My heart was pounding with worry. I might not make it tomorrow for Brylle’s birthday. It’s a special day for him but I’m not by his side.

“I’m not sure if my boss is going to let me go. I’ve already had two day off this month.” Her eyes widened as she draw the phone near her face.

“Can’t you just ask for another day off? Your boss might understand since it’s your child we’re talking about.” That’s actually another thing I’m worried about. Keian doesn’t know that I have a son since I haven’t told him about it and I’m also not yet ready.

I don’t know, I’m just scared that he might shut me out if I tell him that. It’s not like my world is gonna drift apart if my so called ‘boss’ will do so in ignoring me but I know to myself that I wouldn’t be pleased if that happens.

That’s great, Nassandra, you had just developed honesty for yourself. *Pat*

Wahhhhhh! This is so stressful!

“Eh, I don’t know. But I will try to ask him.”

“What will you do if they don’t agree?” I lowered my gaze, thinking of what to do.

“Uhmmm, I’m going to think of something?” I replied, questioningly. Tiya furrowed her eyebrows once again.

“Geez, Nassandra. It’s all up to you. Just don’t forget that tomorrow is Brylle’s birthday.” I smiled at her and nodded.

“Yes, Tiya.”

“Okay fine, I still have a lot of things to do.”

“Sure.” Tiya waves her hand at me to which I waved back. I sighed as I ended the video call.

I looked at the door. My three companions are already asleep but the lights are still open. If you’re wondering about manang, she’s still at the infirmary. She’s been there for so long and we’re all praying that she’ll be awake soon.

I wonder if Keiranz is still up?

I stood up and quietly went out of the maid’s quarters. I also turned the light off as I got out.

The whole mansion is already dark but there are still lights in the kitchen since we were ordered to keep it open all the time.

It’s almost twelve and it’s eerily quiet.

I went up the stairs directly to Keian’s room. I was about to knock when I suddenly heard a voice. A woman’s voice to be exact.

I dglanced own the door to see if the lights are on but it isn’t.

My heart suddenly raced. Is there a chance that Keian and the woman is doing something unholy in there?

I clenched my fists. I’m afraid to open the door since I might just get irritated at the sight. But I badly want to know if my hunch is correct.

I took a deep breath before deciding to take a peek through the door.

Go Nassandra!

My hand was shaking while holding the doorknob but I immediately let go as I heard a scream.

“Kei! Don’t! Please!” I was shocked at the familiar voice. Probably from Laiza?

“Stop it, Laiza. Go back to your room and sleep. It’s late now.” I heard Keian’s cold voice. I wonder what was Laiza’s purpose here. What did they talk about?

I stepped away from the door as I heard footsteps approaching. Never got the chance to hide as Laiza got out and was ultimately greeted by my presence.

She furrowed her eyebrows and examined me from head to toe.

“What the heck is a maid doing in front of Kei’s room?” She asked annoyingly. Is she talking to me?

“I just came to pass by, maîtresse.” I bowed to her a little as she narrowed her eyes at me.

She rolled her eyes and clicked her tongue as she went to her room. What’s her problem?

“Looks like you didn’t just came to pass by.” I heard the cold voice again so I looked inside the room and saw Keian raising a brow.

“What are you doing here?” I held my nape nervously as I stepped inside his room. He’s at the veranda, drinking?

“Uhmm, I just wanted to ask something.” He walked to me after placing his glass on a table in his room. He closed the door behind me and grabbed my hand to pull me to his couch.

He sat then pulled me down to his lap.

“Hey!” I tried to escape his grasp as he hugged me from behind. This guy literally smells good all the time.

“Stay.” What? Do I look like a dog now? I raised a brow at him as he got his glass and drank from it. I stared at the wine he’s holding. It’s been a while since I drank, though. Keian noticed that and smirked.

“Hmm?” He offers his glass and I gazed into his eyes. Since his drink looked awfully good, I opened my mouth. I noticed that he placed the glass on my mouth at the same spot he drank from.

I drank the wine, flustered. The heat from the liquid felt satisfying in my throat. Ahhh it’s been a while since I last drank. I smiled as Keian put the glass away. He stared at me intently.

“So, what is it that you’re going to ask?” He tightened his grip on me and placed his chin on my shoulder for support.

“What was Laiza doing here?” I can’t help but ask. Like what did they even do? I was surprised when Keian held my cheeks and faced my head to his.

“We’re not doing what you think we’re doing.” I rolled my eyes at his statement.

“Why? Did you know what’s in my mind?” Sure Nass, just pretend.

“No, I just know that you think we’re having s—”

“Oops, stop right there.” I placed my hand on his mouth. I sighed and looked at him straight in the eyes.
