Lilly left few minutes after she threatened me and gave me a scare.
As much as I hated to admit it, that girl was as scary as hell
How can someone be so cute, yet so vicious at the same goddamn time
I got up immediately, to look around. The place was beautiful, and huge. I had never even visited a place like this in my dreams not to talk of in real life
I had less than two hours to get ready for the day. But for a person who was used to getting ready in under ten minutes, two hours felt like a whole lot of time
I got down from the bed, taking in the beauty of the room. Everything was so gorgeous and screaming expensive. I saw a white door by the corner of the room, and with me being me, I went there and opened i
I gasped in amazement at what I saw. It was a fully furnished walk in closet. Everything was there, rating from the shoes to bags to the clothes... Even the underwear, everything was ther
And what surprised me the most was that, they were all my siz
How did Alexander know my siz
The thought consumed me to the point, that I unconsciously hugged myself
He said he wasn't the one who changed my clothes, so I ought to believe him. Because seriously, even if he was a pervert, he looked way to rich to like someone like me
The thought, though degrading, calmed me down. I picked up a gown and just went o the bathroom
Two hours later I was standing at the huge living room waiting for Alexander and his little brat of a witch to come down
" Daddy, I really don't need a nanny, please..." I heard Alexander's little witch say
She was coming down from the stairs with Alexander right beside her, holding her tiny hands
Lilly gave me a disapproving glance when she saw me standing there
" Yes you do. I have to go to work, but I'll see you later". Alexander said as he left without even sparing me a glance
I just stood there awkwardly in front of his little witch.
What are you standing there for? Get to work! My dad doesn't pay you to just goof around". Lilly said in a commanding tone
Your dad doesn't even pay me at all! I so badly wanted to bite back
But I held it in
Mia, this isn't the time for you to be stubborn. This isn't your house, nor do you have any say here. I repeated to mysel
I clenched my hands to a fist and gritted my teeth. This girl should be glad that I owe her father my dignity, and most probably my life
" What... What do you want me to do for you?" I said in-between my gritted teeth
Lilly titled her head and blinked her big blue eyes. I must confess she did look cute, but not cute enough to fool me
" Let's head over to my room. " She declared
With a flick of her hair, she turned around and began walking back up the stairs
" Let head over to me room..." I mimicked in annoyance
She turned back to look at me, and I immediately bowed my head
" Did you say anything? " She asked coldly coming to stand beside me
" No" I shook my head franticall
"Good". She snorted before resuming back the walk to her room
Hold shit, was I terrifie
This girl is the devil's incarnat
I followed her with my mouth shut. Before I knew it we were at the her room
My mouth opened in awe at what I saw
No one needed to tell me it was a rich, bratty little girl's room even if I had never met Lilly. The room was completely colored in pink. From the princess bed in the center to the walls and even the doors, they were all coloured in different kind of pink
And her bed... Oh her bed, it was the type of bed I wanted for myself when I still little. Long time ago, before I knew how heartless the world can truly be
Lilly just went to sit on the pink couch by the bed
She said something, that I knew because I saw her mouth move, but my mind was not there at all
The room made me feel like I was in my fantasy land, in a place where I could have money enough to get this for myself
I had always loved pink, but after an incident that happened almost fifteen years ago, I had to forget about all the childish dreams of mine and grow up
But seeing Lilly's room brought them ba
" Mia..." I heard her call, but I was still very much engrossed in the beauty of her room and my imaginations to answer
I felt when she stood up from my bed and stood directly in front of me
" Mia". She called again, this time around she shouted so loud that it snapped me out of my imaginations
The only thing rope holding my mouth shut snapped alongside my imaginations
" What is your problem!" I shouted back at her
She was visibly shocked
I was also surprised myself
What did I just d
Lilly's lips began to tremble lightly, Oh my God was this girl going to cry.
I panicked, steeping back a little
" I'm sorry I didn't mean to..." I attempted to hold her hands but she brushed me of fast
"Don't touch me". She said with trembling lips. Her eyes were already red, by now I was very sure she was going to cry
" Hey, I didn't mean to, I was just...
I was in trouble
I had no idea how to pet a child
For God sake, I've never been in a room with a child for more that five minutes. And that was when my older sister just gave birth to her first child. She literally had to force me to watch him for her
Children were really not my thing, and now I'm a nanny to one, not just any one, a little witch who is also a cry baby
I could see that Lilly was trying hard not to cry, but it just wasn't working
Oh God, could it be that this girl have never been yelled at befor
" I'm sorry.
" I was looking at your room, them I remembered that I used to want something like this when I was little"
"Was that why you shouted at me? I'll tell my dad about..
"Noooo," I shook my hands in front of her. Why was this girl making apologizing more difficult than it already was
" Are you a crybaby? Why are you crying just because I yelled at you? Where I'm from we don't do that ". I said frustrated
Apologizing to Lilly was not working, it's as if the more I apologize the more the girl adds fuel to her tears
The next thing I saw was Lilly wiping her tears with her hands, and a huge smile on her pretty face
What's going on? Was this girl bipola
" Where are you from, Mars? " She asked way more relaxed that she was few seconds ago
"But you were..." I struggled for words as I watched the transformation, from a crying little child, back to the proud little witch
" It's called acting, my dear Mia"
My eye balls grew so wide that they could fall from their socke
Acting? She was actin
" Do you think that I would cry just because you yelled at me? " She snorted
" It's just practice, for how to tell my dad when I don't want you in this house anymore"
I stood there frozen
It was just acting.
Then I looked up at Lilly who had a triumphant smile on her cute face
This girl maybe a bigger devil than I thought! . ... . . g?ts. . . r?. . . ? .". "e?. ! . . . " . . . ..o?. . . . . . . ck. . . . . . . . e!d!. y.. . . . . . . . f.. . . " . . . . . . . . e?e!e!t.. . . . ". She said with trembling lips. Her eyes were already red, by now I was very sure she was going to cry.
After the 'act' with Lilly in her room, the girl listed a lot of ground rules. Some of which I was not able to catch because I was still shocked by the fact that the girl was a good actress. By the time she was done, we had taken over three hours and I was only able to scam three rules. ' Don't mess with my hair: You're not allowed to touch it no matter what Always be at my Beck and call: If I call you and you don't answer, we have a problem. And last one which I found very absurd,Don't fall for me dad! 'The first rule, was understandable. The girl had golden beautiful locks that I feared I would ruin if I touched it, but it would feel good to run my hand in it, but I was going to keep that one. The second rule, that was a typical spoilt brat move. Me, Mia have to always be at a little girl's beck and call. I felt my pride and self dignity disappear when she said that. I had to bit my lips to prevent myself from saying something that would make her tell her dad something terrib
Mia's POVHow dare they?What did they think I am to them? Huh, their fucking property?I am a freaking adult! They had no right to sell me like a used object in an auction house. My family I thought was just poor, but we had our dignity, yet they just sold me out?I knew they had always loved my older sister more than me. She was the obedient one, and the nice one and also the most pretty. She was the breadwinner of the family while I was just their second child. "Dargh!!" I screamed loudly. Using my hands to cover my ears. " Is that my phone?" Alice asked pointing at the broken phone that I threw on the floor. "Er...I want to be alone right now". I murmured rather angrily as I took my frustration elsewhere. "Mia, you're buying me a new phone!" I heard Alice yell after me and I snorted. Where the hell was I going to get money for a new phone? I let my legs lead me back into the house and inside Lilly's room. Why did it lead me here? Probably because it was the only place in t
" What about my Lilly?" Alexander asked dropping the papers in his hands, giving me his full attention. The boldness I had gathered to knock on the door suddenly disappeared as he stared at me." Well... Er..." I stammered. " If you don't have anything reasonable to say, leave". Alexander resumed his gaze at the large paperwork in front of me. How should I begin?Should I... I glanced up at Alexander who was behaving like I was no longer in his study. I was already here, let's just get this done and over with. " Do you know what's going on with her?" I asked after a few moments. Alexander hands scribbling something on a paper froze, then he looked up at me. " What do you mean? " " Lilly came back home today in tears. Well she wasn't exactly in crying, but I could tell she had cried. Her eyes were red and puffy and her voice hoarse. This isn't the first time this has happened, I noticed it for a few days now. "Now Alexander's attention was fully on me. He had dropped the pen in
I stared at Lilly's door for minutes without moving. Today was a Saturday, and would be the best time for me to get to know Mia like Alexander suggested. But... What the hell am I going to say to the girl? Alexander was out... Went to work on a Saturday, a sign of a typical work addict, so Lilly was in her room all by herself. Ok, I'm doing this. I stretched my hands and opened the door ever so slightly. Lilly was seated on the floor, concentrating on something so intensely. " What are you doing?" I peeped into Lilly's room from the slightly ajar door. The little witch looked up at me from her position, before she looked away. " What are you doing here? I didn't call for you"Yeah you didn't. Alright Mia, you're already here, so let's do this. I opened the door completely and walked into the room. " I just thought, you know... to check up on you, see how you're doing ". Mia shrugged her shoulders before continuing what she was doing. Walking closer to her, I looked down at
Third person POV. It's been weeks since Lilly and Mia became friends. Lilly began warming up to her slowly, and Mia began liking the little girl's company. The girl friendship with her came with a lot of benefits, one of them being that Mia no longer lacked food. No matter the hate the other servants in the house feel for her, they couldn't do anything, especially when Lilly backed her up. Alexander on the other hand, was always at work. He was yet to see the new friendship formed my his daughter and Lilly... But someone else had already noticed. " So... You and the 'little witch' are on good terms now?" Alice asked air coating the little witch. She had noticed that Mia no longer complained about her as often as she normally did. " Well... " Mia shrugged. The girl was good company, and could be really fun to be with, but there was no way she's admitting liking her. It would hurt her pride way too much. " We just came to an even ground". Alice raised her brow at Mia. She didn'
Mia stared at Victoria refusing to back down, Alice in the other hand had begun saying her prayers. She knew the kind of person Victoria was, it would be a miracle if both of them didn't get sacked today. " Not only do you dare to stop me from correcting my staff, you also talked back at me. Who in the hell do you think you are?" Victoria yelled, her face crunched in anger and her chest moving up and down quickly. She was shocked at the audacity of the new maid. No one, not even her brother had ever talked to her this way before in her life!" Who I am doesn't matter. Just because we work for your brother doesn't mean you can speak to us or even hit us any how you please". Mia said calmly, secretly enjoying how riled up Victoria was getting. Alice on the other hand was having a heart attack. Mia was making things worse for them, why was she not seeing it. " What is going on here?" Lilly walked in on the situation, her footsteps slowed down when she saw her aunt. " Aunt Victoria..
Mia's POVI left the room after putting Lilly to bed her for afternoon nap. This was the most serious I've seen Lilly ever since we became friends. Everyone was so scared of this Victoria, when all she needs is a good beating... And I could do it for her. She just sounded like a spoilt brat who had gotten everything she ever wanted in her life in her life making her do rude to everyone else. Damn that girl, she's making my head hurt. I felt a tapping on my shoulders, more like a shaking. I immediately looked up to see Alice who was standing above me worriedly. " Mia!" She yelled. She was way too loud. "What, what?" I murmured cleaning my ears which I suspect would've been damaged with how loud Alice yelled in it. " What on earth are you thinking about? I've been calling your name for about five minutes now!" Five minutes?Could Victoria matter really have taken me that far?" I was just... Er..." I fumbled trying to find an excuse. If I told Alice that I was starting to get
" There you are, Mia come here". Alexander gestured to me with his hands.I gave Alice a comforting smile so she could release her hands which were round about my waist helping me walk." Leave us!" Alexander ordered Alice. She nodded, giving me a smile that said ' you can do this ' before leaving Alexander, Victoria and I in the room, together... With my ulcer acting up more than it had ever done in my life..I walked over slowly, trying my best to hide my discomfort as I walked." There she is... That vicious woman. She almost hit me brother". Victoria began her complains to Alexander pointing at me." I heard you and I'm going to ask her about it now". " You don't understand. Why would a maid want to raise her hand on me, Alex... Unless she's not a maid... " She left her the rest of her sentence making my eyes widened. Did she think that Alexander and I were..." No... How can you think that? Mia is just my daughter's nanny". Alexander swiftly denied. Why did that pain me so
Mia's POV"Ladies and gentlemen, the renowned artist who came hand in hand with the owner of ALM industries and Hamilton's Enterprise, Mia Andres ". The master of ceremonies of the event announced as I walked on the red carpet and into the event hall. Claps sounded from every corner of the room, and I smiled, waving the guest with my left hand, while my right was held by Alexander who was walking right beside me. " O. M. G, that's Alexander Hamilton". A group of women exclaimed jumping up and down like over excited teenagers. " Really? He is so hot!" Another person in their group said eyeing Alexander. I held his hand even tighter in mine before throwing the women a small smirk and then walking pass them with Alexander and Josh who was behind him. We walked pass them, and after a few more minutes of waving, settled at a far corner. " Imagine how those girls were looking at you just now " I huffed, still glaring at them. " It was almost as if they wanted to eat you alive ". Alexa
Mia's POVHe was here, right here. He came for me. I stared at Alexander who also was staring back at me.His black orbs were staring straight at me as we walked forward. For the first time since I knew him, I was able to read every single emotion in them. Anger, hurt, worry, guilt... And the one I had gotten so familiar with over the last few days before Verona destroyed everything, love. " Alexander". I muttered as I blinked back the tears that had began forming again in my eyes. " Mia, are you alright?" Alexander asked walking towards me. When Gregory and Killian dragged me here, I didn't cry. After getting slapped by both of them, I still didn't cry. Even when my hands felt numb because I've been up here for a few hours now, I still didn't cry... But now, just seeing Alexander's face and hearing his voice which was filled with so much concern for me, and my were already getting teary. " Stop right were you are " Gregory commanded pulling a gun from behind his pants. " Wha
Mia's POVMy cheeks stinged even more and I winced in pain growling under my breath. My entire face felt so sore. Why wouldn't it, in the last hour I had been slapped more than five times by Gregory's huge hands. It was a miracle my head was still stuck to my body right now. And my hands... I wiggled my hands which were handing just above me firmly tied together with a strong rope. The only difference from how I looked right now and a picture of a madman being hanged... Was the fact that my head wasn't the one on the rope. My face had begun to swell from the constant slaps, while my hair which I had previously tied in a pony tail was scattered around my face looking so disheveled. I sure as hell didn't think this was exactly what was going to happen after I left the old lady's house. It has taken me a bit over an hour to get here because of how late it was and how hard it was to find a taxi, and after I did arrive what welcomed me was a hot slap from Killian!My face was pushed
Alexander's POV" What makes you think I care about here?" I growled at Gregory on the phone. I was just with Amelia in the hospital, who had surprisingly woken up when I got a call from the bastard.He said he has Mia and was going to kill her... Why was I going to care about that? I thought.But the truth was that I immediately became terrified." Dear brother, I heard a good source that you're in love with this woman, so... I think you do care ". Gregory said sounding nonchalant. I could bet he had a smirk on his face right now.I clutched my phone tightly and I gritted my teeth in anger.This sounded way to fake to be true.Mia was working for him, she was his ally, why on earth would he kidnap her?" Mia is in my hands, and I advise to come quickly, or else..."

Mia's POVAs soon as I saw the door close, my eyes went back to the food on the table and I rushed it into my mouth. "Uhmm..." I moaned in delight. It was fucking delicious. Or was it just because I hadn't had anything to eat since morning. My stomach had started to hurt, but instantly calmed down as the food went down my stomach. " I did not die from a heart break, I did not die from a car crash, there is no way I'm dieing from ulcer ". I said to myself, taking more bites of the delicious porridge in front of me. After I left Alexander's house, my ulcer cramps became worse. Because I was an artist and public figure, I wasn't allowed to eat much, sometimes not at all, all for the same reason, ' you have to maintain your figure 'For fuck sake I have had this figure even before I became famous and rich. My stomach had suffered a lot, and even after coming here, I hadn't had time to just treat myself to a good meal. Though the ones I ate at Alexander's this past few days, were ama
Mia's POV" You can sleep here for the night Ms". I walked into the small room, but not before flashing the old lady a thank you smile.She turned around to leave, but hesitated turning back to face me " Please, whatever is bothering you, I doubt it's worth you taking your life. " Actually it is. But I kept my mouth shut and just nodded, forcing a smile to my face. The old lady smiled back and then left, leaving me alone in the small room. "Oh shit " I cursed collapsing on the bed. Few hours ago I had walked out to the road, willing to end everything, my entire life... When suddenly I heard someone yell at me to quickly cross. It was then I became aware that I was in the middle of an high way, surrounded by fast moving cars. All the feeling of suicide disappeared from me almost instantly and got replaced with fear, fear of death. It took my almost ten minutes to cross the damn road, and thankfully I did because a huge truck began passing though. If I was still there at that t
Gregory's POV"Mia? No ". The lady shook her head. This time she was trembling for real, so that meant she was lying. I snickered shaking my head with a small smirk on my face. "You gave her a head up didn't you?"She dropped the pretense, and her face turned stern. "This wrong. What you're doing, and I just wanted to help "Help? I laughed shaking my head. " How is it in your position to help? "Killian grunted behind me in annoyance. " Should I take care of her boss? " He asked with a small whisper, and I could tell the receptionist heard it because she began moving backwards I moved forward copying her steps, and she kept on walking backwards until her back touched the desk and she couldn't go any further." You people... You people can't do anything to me. I'll..." Her hands moved around the desk probably looking for her phone. Oh I was right. The second she got it, she waved it at me, " I'll call the police if you come any closer ". "Police?" I snorted in laughter. " Should
Gregory's POV" Killian, I promise you that after this is all done, and I'm sitting on the Hamilton's throne, I'll give you Mia to play with " I said all of a sudden as we walked into the hotel. " Mia? " Killian repeated looking surprised. " What do you mean? "I glanced at my usually emotionless bodyguard who now had a pink stain on his cheeks. He looked away when he noticed my gaze on him. " I'm not blind, I've noticed that you harbor designs on her for a long time now"Though Killian tried to hide it, I could tell he wanted Mia. Who wouldn't? The girl has an amazing body figure and the face to match. " But Ms Mia is your woman boss, I wouldn't dare ". Killian argued shaking his head firmly. " You already have, and I don't mind it. " I stated. " After I've defeated Alexander, Mia would be of no use to me any longer. I would most definitely kill her, but I wanted my longest bodyguard to have his wish with her first ". I said nonchalantly. If the new plan works, Mia would litera
