Maid for the Mafia Boss

“Hey, Nass! What’s that? Snacks?” Steven asked with twinkling eyes, then quickly went to Devon and me, who’s holding the tray.

“Wait. Devon cooked too?” He innocently asked. Devon glared at him.

“What if I say that I did cook this?” He asked, irritated.

“Well, is it you?” Steven teased.

“No, but at least I helped!”

“Then it’s not you!” Steven started running, and Devon looked like he wants to chase him, but he glanced at the tray he’s holding then at mine.

I smiled at him forcefully.

“Sure, I’ll hold that too,” I said sarcastically. He winked at me then gave me the other tray, which caused me to frown. After that, he went to chase Steven.

I’m just joking, though, huhu.

“Let me help you with that,” shocked, I turned to Theo, who just appeared beside me.

“Oh! Myghad. Don’t just appear all of a sudden, Theo!” I said to him.

He looked like he got shy and lowered his head.

“S-sorry” Oh nooo.

“Hey! I’m not angry. Here, get the tray and don’t be sad anymore” why is it that when I said that, I feel that a child is in front of me.

Theo looked up and happily got the tray that Devon was holding a while ago.

I don’t really know what’s happening to me, but without thinking about it, I pat his head.

His aura saddened again.

“Why do I feel that you think of me as a child?” He said sadly.

I blinked repeatedly and messed his hair more.

“It’s okay, you’re still cute” his eyes widened and even turned red.

He quickly turned his back at me, still holding the tray.

“W-where should I put this?” I just smiled at his actions, then looked around to find a place to put the trays.

“In the covered field. There’s a table there, right?” He gave me a side glance then nodded.

He walked there first while I’m just following him.

“Hey,” someone held my hand, so I looked at who did.

“Zeke?” He smiled at me then took the tray I’m holding.

“You made this?”

“Hmmm. Devon helped me” Zeke was shocked at what I said.

“Devon?!” I furrowed my eyebrows.

“Yes. Why? Is there something wrong?” He looked at me, afraid.

“D-did he mixed this?” He asked nervously.

I shook my head.

“He just helped me put fillings on the dough.” He sighed and even held his chest.

“Ghad. I’m relieved” I furrowed my eyes at him.

“Why is that?” He smirked then looked at Devon, still running and chasing Steven.

“Well, let’s just say that he’s not a great cook” I slowly nodded my head at him.

“Wait! Hey!” I shouted when he got an empanada and started eating it.Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.

“Whaft? I’fm hunfgry,” he said, with his mouth full.

I just slapped my head and shook it.

“Where should I put this again?” Theo shyly asked. I smiled at him and pointed at a part of a table beside the covered field.

“Shall I call our men?” I nodded at Theo.

“We cooked a lot, so it will be enough for everyone here,” I said. He smiled then approached a group of their men.

I then faced Ema and signaled them to come and eat.

They happily walked towards here.

Except for Nathan, who’s not with them.

“Where is Nathan?” I asked the two.

“He said he needs to go to the bathroom,” Ema answered.

“Ey, Nathan is not serious at what he said. He is really just like that sometimes” I smiled at them and nodded.

“It’s okay. I understand”

“Girls,” Zeke offered them some empanada that they accepted with their faces red.

“Thank you, Maitre,” Zeke smiled at them, then tried to stuff my mouth with the empanada.

I glared at him.

“Eat already. You must’ve started cooking hours ago” I rolled my eyes at him and got the empanada and ate it.

“You can just give it. You really have to force it?” He just grinned, then went to their men and asked them if they want some.

“Nass” Keian suddenly touched my waist, so I looked at him.

“Hmm?” He slightly smiled, but you can see in his eyes that he’s tired.

“You okay?” I asked. He nodded.

“Of course. Is that empanada?”

“Yep. Do you want me to get you one?” I was about to leave to get it, but he caught my wrist to eat the one I was eating a few minutes ago.

I turned red because he’s just staring at me while munching.

Our scene is that it looked like I was feeding him.

“T-that’s mine. I can just get you one.” He looked at me, still serious.

“It’ll taste better if I eat yours” I frowned when he smirked.

I punched his chest and moved away from his arms.

“Hey. Sorry” he hugged me from the back, and because I’m too embarrassed, I didn’t notice that he already ate all my empanada.

“Hmm. It tastes wonderful, baby,” he whispered in my ear that made my body stop.

I let him hug me.

I then noticed that the place was silent. I looked at the people here with us.

I quickly moved Keian’s hand away from my waist at looked at them with wide eyes.

They all stopped and are just looking at us.

I turned red even more.

“Tsk” Keian looked at his men with daggers on his eyes.

“What are you all looking at?” They swiftly looked away and went back to what they were doing.

“It’s because you are too ‘PDA,'” Zeke teased.

Keian looked at him like he’s going to kill him.

“You’re just jealous, Nic. Just ask Katie out” Zeke’s eyes widened at what Keian said.

“What?!” Theo asked, shocked.

“Why? What will you ask me?” Zeke jumped when he saw Katie just alongside him.

“It’s okay, Nic. Don’t be shy. What’s the question?” It seems like Katie didn’t hear everything Keian said.

“It’s nothing,” Zeke suddenly said rudely. Katie pouted then hit him on the back of his head.

“Hmph!” Zeke looked at Katie, who left annoyed.

“What the hell, Nic?!” Theo came to us with disbelieve in his eyes.

“It’s nothing, okay?” Zeke glanced at Keian and glared at him.

“Nass. I need to tell you something later. Can you go to my room?” I nodded at him.

He smiled before leaving to go inside the headquarters.

I smacked Keian on his arm.

“What?!” he asked irritatedly. I just rolled my eyes at him.

“Nassandra, the snacks are great!” Steven said to me, panting.

“Oof!”

“Ha! You ba—–” Devon pinned Steven on the grass. Steven then tried to stand.

“Just admit it already! You are not really good at cooking”

I simply watched them fight while Keian’s hand just is holding my waist with his head on my shoulders.

What will Zeke tell me?

—

“*Tok tok tok*

I knocked three times on Zeke’s door and waited for him to open it.

“Hey. Come in,” Zeke greeted after he opened the door.

I glanced at him perplexed, but he just smiled at me and opened the door more.

My mouth dropped when I saw how untidy his room is.

“Zeke! Why didn’t you even called a maid! Your room looks like a storm hit it!” I said to him with wide eyes.

He scratched the back of his head.

“Don’t overreact, Nass. I can clean this mess all by my—-” I started picking up clothes and pillows on the floor.

“Nass—”

“Ops! Don’t whine anymore. I can do this myself.” I then started to fix his bed.

“Okay, but Nass. Hear me out first” I ignored him and continued cleaning.

He can just tell us to clean his room. Not that he just let his room get messier!

“Nass. Stop. I need to talk to you, remember?” I looked at his eyes, trying to see if what he’s about to say is important.

I sighed.

“Let me finish this first, please” it’s his turn to sigh and lowered his head.

I went back to cleaning with a smile on my lips. It’s satisfying too sometimes when you see a place clean.

“Spy on Nathan. The other maid you are with” I dropped the pillow I’m holding and quickly turned to Zeke.

He’s looking at me with his face serious.

I furrowed my eyebrows at him.

“Why?”

“He’s suspicious. I also saw him near my room the day I didn’t notice that I lost a gun” I raised an eyebrow at him.

“Maybe because he cleaned the room?”

“We’ve already talked about him, Nass. Everyone thinks he’s suspicious. Don’t you?” I remember the times where he went restless and nervous without any reason.

Also, when he suddenly vanishes while Ema, Jane, and I were talking to each other.

“You do. So I’m asking you to spy on him for the sake of this mafia” I looked at him with disbelieve.

“He’s my friend!” I said at him, slightly irritated that caused him to grin.

“But he said that you’re not his friend” my face lost its expression.

He noticed my reaction and sighed.

“Sorry. It’s just that Kei assigned me to find the traitor. It’s my fault a lot of people died in the mall.”

I breathed deeply.

“It’s okay, Zeke. I won’t spy on him. I’ll just keep my eye on him.” He smiled at what I said.

“Thank you, Nass,” he sincerely said.

I nodded at him and resumed cleaning.

But I just can’t help to be worried…
