"My Maid"

ELSA'S POV:

My second day here and it hasn't been eventful except for the kiss with Ezekiel the previous day.

I was adjusting to the life of a maid though it was hard to.

Glancing at the container in my hand, I hissed in anger.

“I wonder how long I have to take this drug?” I mumbled and threw a tablet into my mouth.

The sour taste passed through my throat and I cringed, shaking my head vehemently.

I couldn't believe that I have to go this low to complete my mission. Taking a drug that will disguise me as an omega because I wouldn't want Alpha Nathan to find out I was the daughter of Alpha Damien of Crest Lake Pack.

“Are you sick?” Mina's startled me and I quickly hid the container by my side and smiled at her.

“I should have some privacy.” I voiced and Mina nodded, apologizing instantly. “I knocked but you didn't answer though. And I was worried because you were taking so much time in here.”

“It's fine.” I mumbled and stylishly hid the container and smiled at her. “Why are you here?”

“Your master is home.” She announced with a teasing tone.

I rolled my eyes. “Thank you.” With that I turned towards the door to leave preparing to drag her along.

“His girlfriend is here as well.”

My hand hung in the air as well as my mouth hanging open as I blinked twice.

“How come I missed all that?” Was the only appropriate question I could ask at the moment because I didn't want to give myself away.

“I mean how could you know? Do you know how long you've been hiding me inside this place? It seems to me you're not taking your job seriously.” She said jokingly, and my lips twitched upwards in amusement, hiding further my disdain.

"How in the world would I complete my mission with his girlfriend around?" I battled in my mind as I thought of a possible way I could go about the situation without dragging Ezekiel's girlfriend through the mud.

"Stop standing there, go do your job." Mina declared and nudged me forward with a gentle push.

With my mind traveling so many miles at once, I stumbled towards Ezekiel's chambers.

As soon as my hand connected with the door knob, it opened and I came face to face with a gorgeous looking girl, younger than I. She had dark hair with strands of gold framing her beautiful face and an ocean blue eyes that complimented her perfectly.

Her attire was all back, from hair band to her sneakers. She had this villain vibe from movies.

"Who are you?" She questioned suspiciously, narrowing her eyes on me and at the same time blocking my entrance into the room.

"My maid, Rue. Let her in." I heard Ezekiel say.

"You have a maid now?" Rue asked, turning her back on me.

"Yes, I do." He said simply like he was tired of the discussion.

“And you didn't think I'm supposed to know, Zeke?" Her words echoed, piercing through the silence. I could also sense the hurt in her voice and suddenly I felt guilty.

"This maid here is about to take your man away," I said to myself.

"Sorry Babe, it slipped off my mind." Ezekiel apologized, coming towards her with a smile. My heart twitched and I clenched my fist. He didn't even spare me a glance and whatever guilty I felt a moment ago disappeared without a trace.

"Am I jealous?" I thought bitterly. I shouldn't be because I wasn't permitted to have any feeling attached to him. The instruction was for Ezekiel to fall for me, not the other way around.

"Snap out of it." I scolded myself silently, pushing the thoughts aside.

"You're forgiven." I heard and looked up to see Rue and Ezekiel locked in an embrace. I pulled my lips in disgust and looked away, rolling my eyes as well.

"See you later then." Rue mouthed and brushed past me, causing me to stumble on my feet. Ezekiel's hand came around my back, stopping me from falling.

“Are you okay?” He asked, his gaze softening like he was looking at something so delicate. My mouth slightly opened but I found myself saying nothing, only giving a faint nod. As our eyes locked on each other, he pulled me closer to himself, our bodies pressed together. His hands left my back and settled on my waist, causing my heart to quicken.

"You left me hanging last night." Ezekiel breathed in and leaned forward, "are you trying to seduce me or something, Elsa?"

“You’re the one who is seducing me." I whispered softly and just like where ice water is deposited on a burning coal, the lingering feeling between us vanished. He let go of me immediately like I was some sort of plague and cleared his throat.

"Clean my room, run my bath and get my dress ready. I have a party to attend." As soon as he dished out the instruction, he was gone leaving the room empty of his presence and a hollow feeling lingering around.

******

Waiting patiently in the corner of Ezekiel's room, I watched as Rue threw herself all over him and he allowed it. The stolen kisses, giggling, helping him dressed up was all making my blood boil. I hated the fact that I had to watch all these.

I see no reason he would want me to be in the room when I was done attending to his needs. Does being his maid mean I would watch all these?

"Yike!" I mumbled and shot several dagger stares in their direction.

"Here!" Ezekiel's voice shot towards my direction. He was handling a red dress towards me.

"Go change in this, we leave in five minutes."

Without a word, I picked the dress and was about to leave when his voice stopped me. "Change in my bathroom."

I nodded and did as I was told.

"She is going with us?" I heard Rue asked in all displeasures.

"Yes, she is my personal maid and wherever I go, she goes." Ezekiel said not mincing words which got me scoffed. Dude wants to torture me. Maybe he thought I was falling for him.

By the time I was out of the bathroom, Rue was nowhere to be found. I guess she left. It was a breath of fresh air to see just him in the room.

"You look too happy to see just me." I caught the smirk in his face as I forced a smile.

"I'm only a maid, how can such a thing make me happy?" I tried to play it cool but he chuckled. "Red looks good on you."

He took a long stroll to where I stood and lowered me gently on a chair I hadn't taken notice of.

With all gentleness, he slid my legs into a pair of black flat shoes, running his fingers on my legs afterwards. I shivered slightly from his touch and bit down on my lower lip.

Smiling devilishly, he stood up and strengthened his shirt.

"Let's go.”
