Maid for the Mafia Boss

” Nass” I shut my mouth the minute I heard Keian’s voice as if he was giving me a warning.

He goes over to me and Nami then held the latter on both of her shoulders.

” It’s okay, you are safe now” Keian eyed me maliciously.

He glared at me!

I raised an eyebrow but heaved out a sigh and chose to stand up.

” She’s now okay, I already treated her wound,” I said.

Keian just nodded at me then went on talking to Nami.

I prevented myself from hitting the man on his nape.

Hey!

I turned my back against them and decided to head to the kitchen.

Keian didn’t get to finish what he was cooking…

Getting all of the stuff he brought out, I started preparing the other ingredients for what I’m going to do.

” Haystt” I sighed for the nth time while waiting for the food on the pan to cook up.

I can’t seem to calm my nerves down and I don’t know what I’m feeling… I can’t understand what I’m feeling right now.

I’m uncertain.

I started feeling this when I saw Nami…

I bit my lip.

Stop it, Nass!

How dare you think like that to someone who almost got killed.

I closed my eyes and took a deep breath before diverting my attention back to the food I was cooking.

After a few minutes, I was finally done cooking for our dinner, I prepared the table and called Nami and Keian.

“Let’s eat.” Keian beamed at me while assisting Nami to stand up.

I also noticed Dominique is nowhere to be found.

With his hands on Nami’s back, she used it as support to walk along with Keian.

I sat on a chair next to the dining table and they did the same.

” Keian, I don’t really have the appetite to eat…” Nami said, half whispering.

Keian heaved out a sigh.

” Nami, you should eat. So you could be strong enough for yourself.” I listened to their exchange of words while eating.

” But, I’m still… scared” I stayed silent in my seat.

” Come on, just eat something,” Keian said.

Nami looks at her food and tried raising her spoon to her mouth but her hand shakily drops it back down to the plate.

” I-I can’t” Nami sadly turned to Keian.

She gave me a glance before saying;

“Please feed me.” I raised an eyebrow at her sudden sweet tone.

As far as I know, her wounds are on her knees, not on her hands!

Huhu.

” Okay,” I immediately choked upon hearing Keian’s response.

He didn’t mind what was happening to me and raised a spoon filled with food to the other girl.

Is he serious!?

” Hayyyyyyy” I sighed so loudly and stood up, can’t handle the scene any longer.

Nami and Keian both turned their heads in my direction.

” Uhmm, I’ll just ask Dominique and the other men if they wanted to eat. I cooked quite a lot, after all.” I started walking towards the door.

Their eyes still followed me. “Nas—”

Before Keian could even call my name, I had already slammed the door shut.

This made everyone outside turn to me in surprise.

” Maîtresse” they bowed.

“Do you guys want to eat? There’s a lot of food in here.” I said to the two men who went closer to me.

They both glanced at each other.

“It’s alright, maîtresse, we’re not starving.” I bit my lip and lowered my head.

“Is that so, fine. By the way, where’s Dominique?”

“He went to town, maîtresse” I nodded at them in response and intended to walk to the seashores but one of the men tried to stop me.

” Sorry, maîtresse, but it’s not safe to go to the seashores at this high tide hour. You could just stay— maîtresse?” I wiped tears that fell from my eyes.

What the heck, Nass!

Why are you crying???

“I can handle myself very well *sniff* I know you guys would protect me when something happens. I’ll just go there for a while.” Kuya gaped his mouth at what I said and turned to his other mates.

“But maîtresse,” I muttered out a smile.

” Sorry, fine, I’ll just head back inside.” Satisfied, they didn’t speak anymore.

I just wanted some fresh air and be alone for a while but if it’s not to be, then it’s okay.

” Nass” I felt someone hold on to my arm at the same time with the sound of a very familiar voice.

I faced the person who just called me.

” Dale!?” I shockingly stated out.

The latter smirked at me.

” The one and only” I smiled at his arrogant voice.

“What brings you here?” I asked.

His eyes widened a bit but immediately changed into a mocking expression.

” What? Am I not supposed to be here? I missed teasing the two of you” I narrowed my eyes at him.

“Don’t you have better things to do than just… annoying people with your mere presence?” I joked.

He laughed and nodded repeatedly.

” Yes, and there’s nothing you can do about it”

” Yeah right,” we both shared fits of laughter.

” So, what happened? Why were you crying when I saw you?” He suddenly asked in a serious tone.

“I-I’m not.” he snickered.

” Don’t fool me, Nass, I saw it with my own two eyes” I sighed.

I didn’t answer but just stared my eyes at the seashores.

From the corner of my eye, I saw Dale also looking at me in observance.

” You want to go there?” I nodded at him.

” Maître, someone strictly—”

” It’s okay, I can protect her. I’ll take responsibility for her” he coldly told the men, I faced myself at Dale.

The men bowed and finally left.

” Let’s go” Dale held my arm and aimed to pull me towards the seashores.

Here we go again with all the dragging, yeah?

” So…?” He started as soon as we sat on the sand near the sea.

I glared at him for a moment before turning to my serious mode.

” Keian’s ex is inside” he furrowed his eyebrows.

” Huh? Which one?”All text © NôvelD(r)a'ma.Org.

I fell silent for a second…

” Nami” I looked at Dale whose eyes widened upon hearing this.

” Nami!?” I raised my head despite being confused by his reaction.

” Oh sh8t— uhmm, Nami— I mean Nass, I gotta go…” My eyebrow ultimately rose up.

“What? Why too soon?” He swallowed hard and quickly stood back up.

” I’m sorry, I’ll accompany you back to the house… but I had to go.” He offered a hand impatiently.

I took a deep breath before accepting his hand.

He pulled me to get up.
