A Maid

last update Last Updated: 2025-02-14 16:21:56

When Mikhail said he was letting me out, I didn’t think he was going to make a maid in the mansion. I was the only maid who didn’t reside in the servant quarters.

Being a maid was better than being someone’s sex slave. It’s what made me somewhat grateful that the Russian mafia took me. All those stories Alfonso told me about the Bratva were fake.

He said they were cannibals and would eat me alive and spit me out in pieces if I associated with them. So far, they were way better than the Cosa Nostra which treated women like they were sex toys to be played with.

“My name is Polina and Mikhail instructed me to guide you through your duties. He made it clear you are not supposed to leave the mansion. He doesn’t trust you and neither do I. I’m going to have my eyes on you.”

“Sure, blame the girl who was kidnapped,” I whispered under my breath.

“Did you say something?” Polina asked.

I shook my head and pressed my lips shut. I should not have said that out loud. Images of Carlo and his men be

    “You made her a maid,” I said to Mikhail.I flew to Finland for a few hours and he already made decisions without me. He may have been my second in command but that didn’t mean I wanted him anywhere near Livia’s business.She was mine to deal with.“I told you people would talk if we didn’t do something. No one will question who she is and what her role is if she is already working for us. The last thing we need is people claiming you bought a girl.”As much as I hated it, Mikhail was right. I only rose to the throne because I supported the agenda that women and children were not commodities for sale. That and the fact that I was the most dangerous man in Russia.If people found out I kept the girl Viktor bought, my men would break my rules.No one would respect my authority. It was important to lead by example. However, when it came to Livia Brown, I made impulsive decisions because I was so taken with her.I wouldn’t let her go until I figured out why she made me feel what no woman

  • Don Maxim's Plaything   A New Task

    When Mikhail told me he would give me a new role, I didn’t expect it to be Maxim’s personal maid. I didn’t understand what it meant. I thought Maxim was trying to lure me into his bed and I had yet to figure out if I was right.The uniform I was given was very different from my previous one. The previous one consisted of a long blue dress with a white collar and a white apron.The new one was much shorter, sitting a few inches below my mid-thigh. It was a short-sleeved black dress with lace trimmings on the sleeves and the hem and a sweetheart neckline that accentuated my cleavage.The outfit was topped off with a short white lace apron, white stockings, and short black Mary Janes. My hair was in a low bun with a few tendrils hanging on the side of my face.My cheeks were flushed red and I couldn’t stop shaking. I was both excited and frightened at the idea of seeing Maxim again. I always cowered under his intense gaze.“I don’t know what Maxim sees in you,” Polina said in her terribl

  • Don Maxim's Plaything   Confused

    I blushed profusely, embarrassed that I had been caught staring. Maxim wasn’t wearing glasses and he looked better without them. I briefly wondered where he got his scar from. Not that it made him ugly. It only added to the allure of darkness that surrounded him. Maxim’s gaze was almost predatory as he angled his head to get a better look at me. His gaze lingered on my chest and my thighs. For reasons unknown to me, his gaze excited me. Unlike other times when the male gaze made me feel self-conscious. I liked the fact that a man as powerful as Maxim found me attractive. I may have been a virgin but I wasn’t stupid. We both stood there staring at one another for a few seconds before he turned and disappeared into his walk-in closet. I wanted to leave but I couldn’t since he had stopped me before. The last thing I needed was to get on Maxim’s bad side. I may have been a strong girl but I remembered what Carlos did to me when I disobeyed him. Men in the mafia didn’t like resistance

    I left Russia as soon as I left my mansion. I didn’t tell Livia that, though. I still didn’t know who she was. Before I trusted her, I needed to know where she came from and why she was so special that Viktor broke the rules so he could bring her home. Every effort Mikhail had made to try and find out where she came from hit a brick wall. She didn’t raise any red flags but she remained mysterious and I hated that. Mikhail couldn’t even find her family. Not knowing who surrounded you in the mafia was like giving your enemy a loaded gun. Anyone could put a knife in your fucking back and I had to learn that the hard way. I’d taken way too many knives to my back. I was on my way to Italy to meet Nikita. He said he had something for me. Nikita was my cousin but I looked at him as a brother. He had stood by my side more times than I could count and saved my life a couple of times too. He was the best assassin I had ever trained and the best enforcer in the Bratva. He could get informa

    Maxim never came home the day he told me he would. I didn’t understand why he lied to me. He shouldn’t have told me to wait for him to come because I did. I was angry at him and I didn’t understand why. He kidnapped me and kept me in his house against my will. The only thing I should have felt for him was hate. However, it was the contrary. I couldn’t stop thinking about him. I thought about his eyes, mysterious persona, and intense gaze. I felt things for him I wish I never felt. Whatever happened, I knew it would end badly. I was the daughter of his enemy and one of the reasons his sister was dead. He would kill me sooner than later. What I needed to do was stay away from him and hatch a plan to get away from him as soon as possible. The Bratva was no place for a former Italian mafia princess who was masquerading as an American. I couldn’t help that my anger increased every single day that Maxim didn’t come back. It had been a week. That week was very miserable. What was worse

    After about thirty minutes, my hair was in a neat but messy bun. I stood in front of the full-length mirror and admired what I saw. Everything reminded me of what I gave up when I left home five years before. I hated to admit it, but I missed a life of luxury. Alfonso may have been a toxic parent but he always gave us whatever we wanted. It didn’t matter what it took. He would kill anyone if it meant his little children, also known as his trusted servants did whatever he asked. In exchange, we had to worship the group that he walked and unconditionally obey his every order.And he never failed to remind us that we wouldn’t survive in the real world without him. I proved him wrong for a while before he finally caught me and sold me off to his enemy. I wondered if he knew Carlos sold me to the Bratva. Had it all been a part of an elaborate plan to make my death nice and slow without having to do it himself?My train of thought was cut short when I caught something in the reflection

    I hated Vadim with everything I had. If it wasn’t for what he had over Nikita, he would have been dead. He was the kind of a man to stab you in the back and then wonder why you retaliated.When Nikita was a rookie assassin, he accidentally killed the wife of a Columbian Don. She was caught in the crossfire of a shoot out and it just so happened to be a bullet from Nikita’s gun that ended her life. Considering we have been getting product from them for years, we naturally hid the culprit and blamed it on someone else.The bad news was that Vadim got ahold of the tape and held it over our head. None of us knew how he got this tape, how he knew Nikita killed the Columbian queen or who he had shown the video to. He said that as long as he got a high-ranking position in the Bratva, everything would be kept secret.For three years, he kept his word. I didn’t trust him, though. I monitored everything he did. His mistake was thinking he was invincible. If he knew the information I had colle

    I rushed to my room, unable to be at the party any longer. I knew I would get in trouble but at the moment, I didn’t care. I just wanted to get away.I was wet and I’d just found out that Maxim had a fiancé. I didn’t know what I expected from a man in the mafia, let alone a Pakhan. He could have any woman he wanted—of course, he wanted them all.I didn’t understand why I was so hurt by what I had discovered. I should have expected it. I’d been fooled one too many times by the men in the mafia to have had such high expectations.I thought he really liked me but he was just using me as a substitute for his gorgeous fiancee. She was the one he wanted and he was using me to make her jealous.It suddenly made sense why he wanted to take me to the party. He was hoping she would show up and see us together and she did. In the end, he got what he wanted.I rushed to the bathroom and closed the door. I stared at my reflection in the mirror and wiped my makeup angrily. I wasn’t as gorgeous as V

  • Don Maxim's Plaything   Guilty

    Maxim was understanding and extra sensitive ever since I told him I was homesick. I wasn't sure whether it was because he felt guilty for keeping in Russia when he shouldn't have.Either way, the guilt of what I had done to him and his organization was eating me alive. I could barely look him in the eye without feeling bad.I wasn't sure how long my excuse of homesickness was going to suffice for. At some point, I was going to have to admit that something else was bothering me aside from missing Chicago.People were going to suspect I was hiding something if I didn't come with a better excuse. “What’s on your mind?” Sonya asked.She had come to visit me when she found out the boys were out of the house. She didn't like coming to the house when they were around because they forced us to train and she hated it.She hated any form of physical exercise that didn't involve shopping.“Nothing…” I answered.I hadn't even realized I was staring into space until she spoke to me.

    Carlos being in Russia made a lot of sense. It made sense why Akira was killed suddenly. That whole family was a thorn in my side. It didn’t even make sense that he knew what was going to happen.How did he know I was going to meet Akira? How did he even know I was working with the man? We had tried as much as possible to keep this thing a secret, but somehow, it got out.“I heard you think Livie knew what was going to happen.”I shook my head, thinking about it. I couldn’t see her willingly betraying anyone. If she was doing it, I couldn’t help but think that maybe she was being threatened into it or something.Either way, if she was the one who telling all my secrets, she needed to pay for it with her life. She was no exception from all the people who had betrayed me in my lifetime. She needed to pay for her mistakes.“I don’t think she was. Yes, she was acting weird, but she couldn’t have known what was going to take place. She doesn’t even know how the Bratva is run, and she makes

    Livia fell asleep in my arms, so I carried her to her bed and tucked her in real nice. When she was asleep, I kissed her on the forehead and left her room. I went to the surveillance footage of her room and I didn’t find anything suspicious from the previous day. When she came from shopping, she stripped naked and went straight to the shower. It was an indicator that she had gotten upset over shopping. Her story about homesickness was checking out, but I needed to ask Sonya.I had to be smart about it, or else she wouldn’t tell me anything. She was bound to cover for her friend. If I worded my words the right way, she would sing like a canary. I picked up my phone and dialed her number. “Why do I have the displeasure of speaking to you this afternoon, Pakhan?”“I wanted to ask you something.”“Oh, and here I thought you wanted to say hi to me.”She was the only person who made me want to so something sassy like roll my eyes. She thought she was funny with her sarcastic remarks but

  • Don Maxim's Plaything   Are You Responsible?

    Maxim was suspicious of me, I could tell. If I had just played it cool and acted unbothered, he would have never had doubts that I had something do to with whatever had happened in his meeting. He looked at me like he knew I was behind everything. It was clear something really bad had happened while they were out doing their business. “Did you know something would happen? You acted weird in the morning like you didn’t want me to leave. What did you do?”My acting skills were going to have to save me from the whole situation. I couldn’t let Maxim find out that I had put a bug on him. If I did, he would kill me, and Alfonso would kill Allegra. In that moment, I wished the ground would just open up and swallow me alive. “What happened? I didn’t even know something went wrong until you told me just now.” I said. He looked for any signs of deceit in my eyes, but he wouldn’t find any because I was a pro at acting like nothing was going on. “Maxim, talk to me. Did anyone get hurt?” I as

    I shook my head. That was not an option.“I don’t know when I will see Akira again. I can’t refuse to see him. We have to move first before someone catches on to what we are doing. Takumi might kill him once he finds out, and I can’t let that happen.”“You’re right. The Yakuza are Alfonso’s biggest allies. If we take them away, we take away some of his power.”As we were driven to the location where we would meet Akira, we went over what we would discuss. All we needed was to meet with him, give him our weapons, and then leave.The meeting didn’t even have to take that long. The ride out of town was not that long. Within minutes, we had arrived. Once we were there, we waited inside an abandoned building.We were there for ten minutes before Akira showed up.“You’re late,” I said to him as soon as he was there. I didn’t like it when people wasted my time.“I apologize for my tardiness. I thought someone was following me, so we had to lose them, but don’t worry, no one followed me here

    Livia was acting weird. I could tell something was weighing heavy on her, and she didn’t want to tell me what it was. When she told me she was homesick, I didn’t believe her.But when I was in the shower, I tried to put myself in her shoes. If I were the one who had been kidnapped and sold to the highest bidder, I would miss home as well. especially because she was in a foreign land that she wasn’t used to. Most people never adapted to the cold weather in Russia.And she seemed to hate it at first, but I thought she had already gotten used to it. Looking back, I realize it was naïve for me to think such a thing. She probably was not used to it, and she wanted to go back.However, I wouldn’t let her go, so I had to find a way to get her not to miss more.Even if she was struck with homesickness, I knew there was something else that bothered her. I let her be, thinking that she would probably tell me when the time was right. And even if she didn’t, I would respect her wishes.She helped

    I looked at the bug in my hand, wondering what would happen once I planted it. I couldn’t help the tears that fell down my face. I didn’t dare sob because of the driver.If he was working for Vadim, he would tell him everything I did. I couldn’t risk all that. I had to pretend I was cool with everything.Just as I was starting to be happy, Vadim came and ruined everything. It was clear he wanted the throne for himself. If he thought Alfonso was above killing him just to control both the Russian and Italian mafias, he was wrong.Alfonso had no loyalty to anyone but himself. He only looked after himself and did anything that would make him happy or bring him more wealth. That was why he was willing to sell his own daughters.Vadim was better off accepting the high rank in Maxim’s organization rather than aligning himself with a man like that. However, something told me he wasn’t any better.“We’re here,” the driver said.I hesitated before getting out of the car. How could I go out ther

    I scooted as far away from him as I could, and he just laughed it off. He enjoyed making me squirm and nervous. I wished I could control my emotions quickly, but I couldn’t. I had just seen Carlos.Wherever Carlos was, Alfonso was probably lurking in the shadows. He liked his children doing his dirty work for him. I wouldn’t be shocked if he was nearby, watching me getting scared and getting a good laugh.“You seem happy, Ottavia. Your father doesn’t like that. He thinks we should spice things up.”I knew he was watching me. I should not have been foolish enough to think I could be happy after Alfonso found me. I should have known the burst of joy would come at a cost. He hated seeing others happy.“What do you want?” I asked as I looked out the window.“Oh, don’t look so sad. It’s not a bad thing. Honestly, I think you should have known better than to fall for a man like him. Maxim will kill you the moment he discovers you are nothing but a traitor.”I didn’t dare look at Vadim. He e

    “We should just go. I don't want to be here anymore.”So we paid and left. He didn’t try to follow us, and he didn’t try to speak to me. He was reminding me that he was still around and that I wasn’t supposed to forget what Alfonso had asked me to do.“What was that back there? You seemed like you just saw a ghost.”I didn’t answer her question truthfully.“Nothing. I thought I saw someone I knew but it was a mistake. It shook me up, and that’s why I wanted us to leave. I’m sorry we had to.”“You don’t have to apologize for that, do you hear me?”“Yes.”With that said, we went to a lingerie shop where we chose very cute sets. I had never worn a leather lingerie before, so Sonya picked out one for me.“Since you have golden skin, you can wear a red one. I think with red lipstick and red heels, you will pull it off really, really well. Maxim will lose his shit when he sees you in this.”I smiled at first before I realized what she had said.“How did you know about Maxim and I?”“Oh, ple
