Maid for the Mafia Boss

Warning: May have sensitive scenes in this chapter. Please be open-minded. Thank you.

” Where are we going?” I asked Trikj. He’s the one who is always by my grandfather’s side.

I think he’s one of what Lolo called as powerful allies. Trikj seemed like he owns a gang, and my grandfather owns it and controls it.

Trikj told me his name though I’m not even asking for it. His name is odd. It looks like it’s Russian.

We sometimes talk, and I can feel his warm heart. He’s a good person. But he seemed like he has a lot of debt to pay to Lolo, so he’s willing to do anything to Lolo.

” I was ordered, miss, to bring you to this place.” I don’t know why but he and Erick have similarities. Both of them have a big build, bodybuilders, and almost with the same voice.

We are currently walking in an underground facility, and there’s a never-ending line of rooms on my left and right.

This is my 2nd day here, and I’m fortunate that my grandfather has not done anything to me yet.

*thud*

My eyes widen when I hear someone getting hit.

We reached a room with its door opened, and there, I saw Keian getting whipped.

I sucked in my breath when I saw the state he’s in right now. He has a lot of injuries and wounds on his upper body.

He is only wearing rugged pants, and its color is almost covered with Keian’s blood. He is lying on the floor, with chains keeping him from running away as he struggled with all his strength.

He noticed me and looked in my direction.

” Are you pitying me? YOU’RE THE ONE WHO BROUGHT ME HERE!!!” He stands up and planned to walk to me, but he was stopped by the chains on his wrists.

It’s like he has no injuries at all at the way he’s trying to pull the chains.

I diverted my gaze from him and leaned on the wall.

” What are you doing?” I asked Trikj in a soft voice. He raised a hand, and the men stopped what they’re doing to Keian.

” Sir Maximo will give you a condition later. If you refuse, he’s going to be beaten till death.” I heaved out a sigh.

” Wait! Maximo?!” Trikj gave a signal, and the men inside the room came out and locked the door.

” Maximo is alive?!” They ignored Keian’s question and accompanied me towards my grandfather’s room.

” Oh. Good morning, Pat.” I glared at him and didn’t respond to his greeting.

” You’re making my heart ache, Pat. Talk to me.” I lowered my head.

” So, did you see Marques?” When I don’t answer him, he sighed.

He’s standing right now, and he’s not on his bed.

I’m not sure what exactly is his sickness, but I’m certain that because of this disease, it’s decreasing Lolo’s years.

Good.

” I know that Trikj made sure that you were able to see Keiranz’s state.”

He approached me and locked me in his embrace.

My eyes widen at what he did.

No…

” Pat. You brought him here… so I’m going to use his him against you. Before you even turned on us.” His hold tightened around me.

” You will be my nurse since you knew about medicine,” my eyes flickered to the nurse inside the room.

Its eyes immediately widened as she kneeled in front of Lolo.

” Please! I’m begging you! Don’t take my job away from me! Is there something wrong that I did?” She pleaded.

” So, Pat? Do you agree?” I looked at the nurse once again, who is staring at me with pleading eyes.

” Oh. Are you worried about her? Don’t be. Here.” He signaled to Trikj. My mouth gaped when blood spilled to my cheeks.

Lolo killed the nurse!

I angrily turned to him.

” Why did you killed her?!” He gave me a smirk.

” You finally speak. Well, YOU did kill her. You’re looking at her with pity.” I stepped backward at what he said.

” No.” While I’m backing up, Lolo is taking steps towards me.

” Every time you refuse on what I said, someone will die, or Keiranz will be beaten. Come on, Pat. Choose.” I’m disgusted by him!

Everything I do, someone will still die.

Do I have a choice!?

I spoke with clenched fists.

” Fine.”

I backed up but Trikj already behind me whose eyes are staring straight.

I was unable to do anything when Lolo embraced me.

” Good. Now get me my medicine. I’m f—ing exhausted.” I swallowed a lump in my throat before going to a table where his medicines are located.

I can see dome medicine for stroke so I’m assuming that he might have a mild stroke.

—

I am just sitting here at the corner of the room while my grandfather is talking to someone else on the phone.

He won’t let me leave his room. And I feel like I’m going crazy because I’ve been seeing his devious face every day. It’s either he’ll tell me that because of my words, I’m getting other people killed. Sometimes he’ll even remind me of the days and night we’ve spent together in the past and I almost want to puke at the intense grief I’m feeling.

It’s my fourth day here.

I can’t eat properly, I just have no appetite to take foods leisurely.

I know that it’ll affect my body especially I just recovered from almost dying but I can’t help but be this way. It’s too much.

It’s been almost a week since I cried. Am I going crazy???

” Trikj,” I looked up when Trikj dragged me and brought me to Lolo’s bed.

My grandfather is standing beside it.

I got shocked and scared when he cuffed me to the bed’s headboard and forced me to lay down.

” No!” Trikj distanced himself and goes out of the room.

Leaving me alone with my demonic grandfather.

” Pat.” He held my cheeks.

” It’s been years since we had fun.” My eyes widened when I realized what he’s about to do.

He got up from the bed and went in front of me.

I struggled out of his hold and is trying to get him away from me.

” No!” He slapped me loudly.

” Every time you move, one person will die.” I froze at what he said.

On the four days I’ve been with him, he made me understand that every time I said no to him, he’ll kill a person.

He made me feel like I’m the bad one. And sometimes, I’m blaming myself for all of that.

” Good girl…” He went to the crook of my neck and seemed like he’s smelling me.

” Hmmm.” I felt his breath on my neck then I started trembling.

It’s like this…

This is exactly what happened to me in the past.

I don’t want it anymore!

I want to leave here already!

I felt Lolo’s hands on my body.

I prevented myself from shouting out of fear.

Happenings in the past are repeating…

” Please, Lolo.” I weakly said.

He smirked at me and looked at me like a demon would.

” Oh, Pat…”

” Sir.” The door suddenly opened and Trikj entered the room.

” Who told you you can come in?!” Trikj slightly lowered his head.

” My apologies, but HE’S here.” Lolo’s eyebrows furrowed.

” Tsk.” He gets away from me and fixed his self.

” I’m going out. You can go wherever you want,” I heard what he said but my mind is not running properly.

I kept on having flashbacks of what happened.

I feel… lifeless.

Trikj glanced at me for a second before following after Lolo who gets out of the room.

” Nass?! Damn it.” I noticed Diego entered the room while I’m staring lifelessly at the ceiling.

Why…?

Why me?

I heard him unlocked the handcuffs on the headboard and helped me sit down.

” Nass? Are you okay?” It’s like I heard nothing as I just stared at the floor.

Wait a minute, where did he get the keys for the handcuffs?

Diego touched my cheeks as I looked up at him from my eyelashes.

” Did that Maximo did something so disgusting to you?!” I shook my head at him and lowered my head.

He heaved out a sigh then embraced me. I sucked in my breath at what he did so he swiftly distanced his self from me.

” Oh. Sorry,” His expression saddened.

” Here.” He removed his suit and put it on my back.

” Come on, I’ll bring you to your room.” I shook my head again and returned his suit to him.

” I… need to go somewhere,” Diego wondered what I meant but he lets me.

My feet brought me to the underground facility. The place I went to 4 days ago.

Until I reached the door of the room where Keian is.

I coldly looked at the guard watching me.

” Oen it.”

” But, ma’am—”

” My grandfather said that I can go anywhere that I want.” He gulped at my sharp look then opened the door.

I then saw Keian sitting on the floor and leaning on the wall. No chains are on him anymore.

I closed the door.

He gave me a sharp glare.

” What are you doing here?”

Oh, yes. I also want to ask myself that question.

I silently sat down on one corner and just stared at Keian.

I feel a little relieved just by seeing him but it’s not enough.

” Maximo is still alive?” He asked with a deep voice.

I nodded at him and put my heads down on my raised knees.

” Nass.” I immediately looked up when I heard his soft and tender voice, but it’s opposite to his expression right now.

His eyes are filled with anger, and he looked like he wants to kill someone.

” You brought me here!” He shouted before punching the wall.

” I thought you want to talk so I went to that house. But…” I bit my lip.

I don’t know why but I suddenly started crying. The room is dark, so I think Keian can’t see my face.

” Why Nass? Did I do something to you before I even met you?” I shook my head and turned my back to him.

Then suddenly, the memories of what Lolo did these past few days and a few years ago returned to my mind.

” Stop whining. It’s frustrating.” I covered my mouth with my hand.

When will all of this stop?! I just want to disappear from this world because of what I’m feeling.

I’m feeling so heavy, Keian’s coldness is not helping either.

I somehow stopped crying but after that, I started trembling so hard.

It’s like I’m having a nightmare but I’m awake.

I stared at the wall.

” Pat. Let’s have fun”

” You killed them, Pat.”

” Apo, Lolo loves you so much. He won’t hurt you.”

” No! Lolo, please! Stop this already!”

” Mama! Papa!”

” You can’t run away, Pat.”

I covered my ears and can’t help but scratch my arms.

No! I don’t want to remember!

” Pat.”

” You can’t refuse, Pat. Or someone will die”

” You’re just a whore!”

” You’re a traitor!”

” Baby, please don’t be like my Lolo.”

” Aedin!”

I faced Keian while trembling because I can hear his voice though he’s not opening his mouth.

I laughed.

I’m really going crazy.

I looked straight at Keian’s eyes and his face slowly filled with shock.

Keian’s POV

When I heard her sobbing, I immediately felt irritated.

What the hell is she crying for?!

For seeing me in this condition?!

She’s the reason why I’m here in the first place.

I don’t understand…

All those times we’re together. I know that her expression is genuine. I can’t even wrap my head with me being in one of the safehouses of Il Massimo Impero.

Nassandra started shivering. Like she’s in a really cold place.

I admit that I made a mistake for what I’ve done to her. Not even talking to her while I take care of Aedin.

She even saw us kiss.

That’s bull. It’s not intentional.

I don’t even have the courage to explain to her.

I don’t know what I’m feeling anymore.

I’m angry, at the same time, confused. I’m hurt and sad.

So I ended up distancing myself to Nass.

I noticed Nass faced in my direction.

She even laughed like she’s going crazy.From NôvelDrama.Org.

But then what I saw is what surprises me.

My eyes widen, and my mouth opened.

I hissed at the expression I’m seeing at Nass.

Her cheeks are wet with tears, her mouth is curled up into a smile while her eyes are filled with… fear.

An intense fear of something… or someone.

This is the first time I saw her eyes like that.

She’s scared, whenever she woke up from a nightmare but this is more…

You can’t say she’s just acting because I am sure that no one can imitate her expression right now.

I care for her, a lot. I want to hold her, but I didn’t.

She’s trembling and slightly twitching on the ground.

I want to hold her so badly.

Her expression, it shows great fear. And I want to comfort her.

” Nass” I softly said.

It looked like she started to have trouble breathing. Like she’s choking…

Sh8t.

I stood up and was about to approach but then I hesitated.

What if I’m the one she’s scared of?

I took a step backwards.

I feel like any minute, she will break, like a glass.

And I want to prevent it.

Arghhh!

What should I do?

Her feelings might worsen if I come near her. But that can be also a possibility if I don’t go near her.

Damn.

I swiftly went near her and tightly pulled her to an embrace.

I don’t care if I’m the one she’s scared about. As long as she’s in my arms.

I held the back of her head and leaned it in my bare chest.

” Nass. It’s okay. I’m here” her breathing stopped so I looked down at her face.

It’s like she’s purposely holding her breath it but she intended it not to.

It might be a reaction to what’s on her mind right now.

I held her cheeks.

Then I started to kiss her eyes.

” Come on baby, count with me. One” I kissed her left eye.

” Two” then the right one. Her breathing’s not improving…

I held her waist and gently pressed it for her to give her attention to me.

She still can’t breathe properly.

I went to her ear next.

” 3. Nass” I whispered in her ear and she finally looked at me.

I continued counting while her gaze is on me.

Good.

” Ten.” We both counted.

I looked straight through her eyes.

I kissed her on her lips.

I may sound gay, but my heart beats fast when our lips touched.

I missed her so much…

” Keian.” her voice breaks.

I immediately wiped the tears that escaped her eyes.

She looked fragile…

Like something bad happened to her.

” What did they do to you, Nass?” She went frozen at my question.

I put my hand on her chin and made her look up at me.

” Baby,” her expression suddenly changed, becoming completely cold.

She shook her head then stood up.

She then reached something from her pocket and handed me a no-touchscreen phone?

Wow. It’s been years since I held one.

She looked at me before leaving without saying any word.

…

Huh?
