The next day

Getting to work, I saw all the other maids moving about in a hurry, making me feel a little dizzy from just looking at them.

Changing my clothes, I went to the kitchen to make coffee for Mr Damon before going upstairs to serve him.

Knock knock!!

"Come in"

I heard his muffled voice before pushing the door open. 'Wow', I thought after seeing how he looked in suit. He looked just like a refined business man.

Everything about him was neat but cold, he looked unapproachable.

"What are you staring at?" He asked coldly, annoyance evident in his voice.

"N...nothing sir" I blushed after being caught staring like a fool.

I wasn't attracted to him in any way, but one can't just help staring at beautiful things and the man in front of me was beyond beautiful, he was enticing.

'Okay, what am I thinking right now, I need to focus' I thought, giving my self an imaginary slap to bring me back to reality.

"Are you gonna give me the coffee or are you just going to stand there like a fool

    Done with work for the day, I decided to go pick Ava up from school. Changing my clothes, I packed my things and left."Anna!!" Ava shouted from afar, running towards me and throwing herself at me, I caught her like always."How was your school today?" I asked her, pinching her chubby cheeks cause it was so soft and cute."It was amazing, I made a new friend and we played in the slide" she answered, with her hands playing with my hair."That's great, Ava. Should we go get ice cream to celebrate your new friend?" I asked, knowing fully well what her reply would be "Yes yes!!!" She shouted, jumping happily.Chuckling, we went to a small ice cream stall and I got her favorite chocolate flavored ice cream and mine, strawberry.Putting her down, I held her left hand and we walked home, her kindergarten isn't far from our house. Feeling the burning sensation of someone staring at me, I turned to check but there was no one around, maybe I was just being paranoid.Getting home, I made lunch

    In my 20years of life, I've never kissed a man. I was keeping my first kiss till I fall in love but now it's gone, it's been taken by someone who doesn't even care, a cold hearted psychopath.'Why would he do that? Is he falling in love with me?' I thought, feeling goosebumps rising on my arms just by the thought of it."No no, it can't be" I murmured, shaking my head in disbelief. 'Why would he fall for me, am I that pretty?' I asked myself, touching the large glasses that was resting on the bridge of my nose. Feeling aggrieved, I stomped my feet and went downstairs. 'How could he? I hate him even more now'. As I kept thinking about it, I felt the resentment I had for him build up more.Seeing as he wasn't coming downstairs and it was already lunch time, I decided to do my job since I was the only maid in this house.Entering the kitchen, I opened the fridge and saw that there was enough ingredients to prepare a meal. I wasn't a great cook but I wasn't bad either.Done with making a

    Waving good bye to Mia, I held the chocolate cake I bought for Ava before deciding to take a little stroll to clear my head.After walking for about 10minutes, I felt like I was being followed again but when I turned back, there was no one around. It was already almost 7pm, we didn't spend much time in the cafe.Brushing the feeling, I walked to Ava's kindergarten to pick her up. The cafe was a lot closer to the kindergarten than I thought.After picking her up, we went home. Seeing the cake, Ava was excited and didn't want to eat her dinner but I had to force her.Staring at her sleeping face, I smiled softly, brushing my fingers across her soft cheeks. She was a little bit tired after playing the whole day, making her sleep earlier than normal.Done with taking a shower, I sat down in front of my mirror, drying my hair and thinking about how tomorrow would be.After the kiss with Mr Damon, I felt like things had gotten even more awkward between us, I couldn't even look him in the ey

    "uhm, yes it's pretty comfortable" I said, but I could feel the soreness in my neck from my sleeping position. Staring at me weirdly, he said a simple "Okay" before turning around and waved goodbye. Still standing in a daze, I heard footsteps coming down the stairs slowly. Realizing I couldn't hear the sound of footsteps anymore, I turned back to check only to find Mr Damon right behind me. Looking down at me with unfathomable emotions in his deep blue eyes, his face cold and expressionless. I never seem to understand him, he was so good at hiding his emotions that no one could break through him. Seeing as he wasn't saying anything, I asked "Do you need anything, sir?" Tilting my head to the side to stare at him fully. Squinting his eyes are me, he turned around and went back upstairs, completely ignoring my question. Shrugging, I went back to the kitchen. I was already use to his whims. Checking the time, I realized it was already evening and it would soon be time to start head

    I watched his face closely, searching for any sign of discomfort, but he simply shifted slightly, his expression relaxing. Letting out a small sigh of relief, I adjusted the towel on his forehead and sat down beside the bed. The room was quiet except for the sound of his breathing...steady, but weak. His fever was still high, and I couldn't help but worry. What if it got worse? What if he didn't wake up anytime soon? I bit my lip and reached for his hand, hesitating for a moment before wrapping my fingers around his. His skin was warm...too warm. "Mr Damon," I whispered again, this time a little louder. His fingers twitched slightly, and after a long pause, his lips parted. "Water..." His voice was barely audible, raspy and weak. Snapping into action, I quickly poured a glass from the jug on his nightstand and lifted his head gently, bringing the rim to his lips. He took a few slow sips before turning his head away, a faint sigh escaping him. I placed the glass back and

    Getting in the car, I told him the address and he drove there without saying a word. He seems to be deep in thought. Getting out of the car, I heard my name being called out "Layla!!!" As Ava ran and jumped into my arms. "I missed you" "I missed you too, Ava" I smiled as I hug her. "I'm sorry I was a little late today, I was so busy." I said softly. "It's okay" Ava said in her childish voice, a bright smile on her small round face. "Ahem!!" Hearing Mr Damon clear his throat, clearly asking for attention as we seem to be ignoring him, I turned to him with Ava still in my arms and introduced, "Ava, say hi to my boss...Mr Damon" "Hi Mr Damon, it's nice to meet you" she said childishly, stretching her right hand out for an hand shake. "My teacher said it's respectful to shake someone you just met" she continued. Giggling softly, I stared at Mr Damon's face to study his expression but what I saw shocked me. There was a soft smile hanging on his lips, making him look more breathta

I couldn't do any work cause my mind has been on Layla since the first day I met her....on my bed, looking disheveled.Seeing her on my bed that day, I couldn't take my eyes off her, as she shuffled around for her glasses....I had to force myself to keep my composure.She looked so out of place yet oddly comfortable, like she belonged there but didn’t know it yet. Her messy hair, the way she blinked up at me in confusion...it was the first time in a long while that someone had caught me off guard. And damn, did she catch me.I ran a hand through my hair, trying to shake the memory, but it was useless. Every time I closed my eyes, I saw her. Heard her voice.And now, no matter how much work piled up in front of me, none of it mattered. Because my mind was stuck on Layla.Even after finding out about what I did to her in the past, I still couldn't bring myself to stop thinking about her. To stop wanting her

    Layla's pov"What's your name?" A man who looked like he was in his mid 40s asked, dressed in a butler's uniform, face expressionless and stoic making me rethink my decision to work in this house. But thinking about my little sister, I had no choice but to be strong."My name is Layla Williams sir" I replied, bowing my head respectfully.With my head down, my face twitched non stop, sweat trickling down my back, but I made sure to keep my body composed. I couldn't afford to miss this job, I had to pay for my little sister's school fees and also, our house rent is due."It shows in your resume that you've worked as a maid before, a nanny to be precise, right Ms Williams?""Yes sir" I said, raising my head slowly."Okay, you're hired. You'll be in charge of serving Mr Damon, you'll be his personal maid, you can start tomorrow." The butler said, stretching out a piece of paper with things I should know about Mr Damon. Huh???My mind went blank, 'Mr Damon? No no, I can't be his personal

    What was I thinking? He's just as bad as everyone described, how could he threaten me using my little sister and asked me to strip with no good reason?.Getting to the kitchen, I was relieved to find no one there. I took what I needed before hurrying upstairs so I wouldn't get scolded by his majesty.Balancing the tray on my left hand, I knocked before hearing an answer from inside. Pushing the door open, I went in and closed the door with my foot."Here's your breakfast, sir" I said, dropping the tray of food on the bedside table before making my way out of the room. I was glad he didn't ask me to stay like before.Breathing a sigh of relief after leaving the room, I decided to go look for Mia. After walking for about ten minutes looking for her, I couldn't find her anywhere and wondered where she could be."Argh!!!" I heard the familiar voice of Mia shouting out in pain, turning around to follow the sound, I stopped in front of the maids changing room.Placing my hands on the door
