~Mia~

While I continued cooking, I heard someone enter the kitchen again. I looked back and saw it was Mr Cross. However, the depressed look on his face made me very worried and curious.

“Mr Cross, are you alright?” I asked, and he slowly nodded and let out a very faint smirk. I knew he was lying, but I wasn’t sure if I wanted to keep asking him.

I nodded and looked towards the pot on the fire. “I’ll be done with the second dish soon,” I said to him.

“Great. You should stop after this meal, or we’ll have massive food wastage.”

“Wastage?” I furrowed my brows. “What I have prepared won’t be enough for six to…”

“Just do what I have said, Mia.” He butted in coldly and walked out of the kitchen.

My jaw dropped and my mind went blank for a second. ‘What just happened? What is going on?’ I asked questions in my head. That was the most I could do at that moment.

I did as I was told and after cooking the mushroom sauce, I turned off the gas cooker and kept everything I had prepared wa

  • The Billionaire’s Curvy Maid   One month in

    ~Mia~“Ugh…” I groaned, wincing as a sharp pain stabbed through my head the moment I cracked my eyes open. I squeezed them shut again, trying to ride out the pounding ache that throbbed behind my temples.When I dared to open them again, I glanced around the room. It was unfamiliar—bare, eerie, and silent. A cold chill ran through me.“Hello? Help!” I shouted, struggling to sit up—only then realizing my wrists were bound to the bedframe.Panic surged in my chest. My heart raced as fragmented memories flooded back—being in the parking lot, the sudden attack, someone grabbing me from behind… someone I didn’t recognize.“Somebody help! Please!” I screamed at the top of my lungs. Just then, I heard the click of a turning doorknob. My eyes widened, my breath caught in my throat as the door creaked open to reveal—“You…” I narrowed my eyes, staring hard at his face. He was familiar. The only familiar thing in this nightmare. “I know you! What the hell is going on?” I yanked at the ropes, de

  • The Billionaire’s Curvy Maid   Suspicious

    ~Darla~We kept playing the game, but after a few minutes, I suddenly realized Mia still hadn’t come back. ‘What’s taking her so long?’“Are you sure you left the drugs in your car? Mia should be back by now,” I said to Sienna, worry creeping into my voice. She gave a small nod.“Yes, I remember putting it there,” she replied, and I let out a tense sigh, pushing myself up from the seat.“I’ll be back soon. I need to check on her — she should’ve returned by now,” I said, heading straight out of the restaurant toward the parking lot.“Mia!” I called the moment I stepped outside, my eyes quickly scanning the lot, hoping to spot her. But she was nowhere in sight. My brows knitted in concern as I approached Sienna’s car.That’s when I saw it. My heart dropped. The car keys were lying on the ground, right next to the vehicle. ‘Mia wouldn’t just drop the keys and walk away.’A surge of panic slammed into me like a freight train. ‘No, no, no!’ I screamed silently in my head as I snatched up t

  • The Billionaire’s Curvy Maid   Girls' night

    ~Mia~We were served a variety of dishes from the menu — some of which I had never tasted before — and as we ate and chatted about the most random topics imaginable, Darla waved down one of the waiters."Can we get some tequila shots, please?" she asked, her excitement practically bubbling over.The waiter nodded and walked off. Out of the corner of my eye, I caught Sienna subtly checking him out as he left. Darla noticed too and tapped Sienna’s hand, raising her brows in amusement."What?" Sienna said, rolling her eyes playfully. "He’s got a nice ass," she shrugged, making all of us burst into laughter."He’s got a nice ass?" Trisi repeated, laughing in disbelief."Come on, I can’t be the only one who sees it," Sienna added, and once again, our eyes followed the waiter across the room.Darla shook her head, grinning. "You are unbelievable," she said. A few minutes later, she lifted her head dramatically, commanding silence at the table."Alright, since it’s girls’ night, I think it’

  • The Billionaire’s Curvy Maid   A night to remember

    ~Mia~ I rummaged through my closet in a hurry, trying to find the perfect outfit for tonight. It had been ages since I’d gone out, so naturally, I was buzzing with excitement.“Jacket…” I murmured, grabbing one of my leather ones and tossing it onto the bed. Then I stood back, hands on my hips, eyeing the closet like it owed me answers.“Now where did I put those tights?” I muttered, diving into the drawers again, pulling things out and tossing them aside.Mid-search, the door creaked open. I leaned out to see who it was.Ethan stepped in, flashing a wide smile. “Hey.”“Hey,” I replied, returning the smile before turning back and plucking a short black bodycon dress from a hanger.I threw it onto the bed next to the jacket just as he came closer.“Someone’s got big plans,” he said, settling onto the bed and watching me with curiosity. “What’s the occasion?”I finally found my tights and tossed them onto the bed with the rest of my outfit. “Don’t tell me you’ve already forgotten,” I

    ~Sienna~“Shit… shit,” Bernard groaned as he climaxed.I sighed, rolling my eyes as I shoved him off me.“This is the last time this is ever happening,” I muttered, snatching my clothes off the floor and slipping them on without a second thought.He slid a hand beneath my head, his gaze burning into my back as I dressed. “Why are you so cold about it? Don’t you enjoy it like I do? Or am I just not good enough for you in bed?”I scoffed and shook my head in disgust.“This was never about pleasure. This is a transaction. You handle Mia, do whatever the hell you want with her, but you don’t go near Ethan. He’s mine.” I turned to face him.Bernard smirked. “Well, I haven’t exactly had Mia to myself yet, like you said I would. So until that happens, you keep showing up.”“Oh, don’t worry,” I replied with a smirk of my own as I pulled up my pants. “You’ll have her all to yourself this weekend.”His brows knitted in confusion. “What do you mean?”I turned and met his eyes.“There’s a girls’

  • The Billionaire’s Curvy Maid   I hope so

    ~John~I sat on the couch in the living room, with Darla lying beside me, her head resting gently on my thighs. “I was honestly so shocked when she approached me,” Darla continued, her hands animated as she spoke. “She’s never come to me like that before, so calm and genuine. Then she said, ‘I know I haven’t been the best sister to you, especially when it comes to your relationship with John.’” She mimicked the voice and I let out a laugh.“Isn’t that a bit odd?” I asked, raising a brow. She nodded.“At first, yeah. Even our parents were caught off guard. But once she started seeing that therapist, we all started to believe she was serious.”I shrugged lightly. “Guess that means I don’t have to kidnap you anymore.”She let out a thoughtful hum and nodded. “Exactly. And now it’s your turn to find time to meet my parents, don’t you think?” she said, lifting her head slightly to look at me.My eyes widened. “Wait, already?”“Well, we need their blessings before they change their minds,”

    ~Mia~Evening crept in faster than I expected, and I’d been completely caught up with making dinner. Once I was done, I headed to the bedroom to freshen up, eager for Ethan to get home so I could share everything about my day.After talking to Sienna, I felt elated, like a heavy weight had finally been lifted off my chest. There was nothing holding us back now. No more secrets, no more tiptoeing around. We were finally free to be with each other, without worrying about anyone's opinion.I stepped out of the shower and slipped into my short, red singlet that barely covered my bum. I was in such a good mood, and I needed him to feel that the moment he saw me.As I pulled my hair into a messy bun, it suddenly hit me, I hadn’t set the wine on the dining table yet. I dashed downstairs to do that, and just as I was placing the bottle down, the doorbell rang.“Speak of the devil,” I chuckled, hurrying over to answer it.When I opened the door, there he was, Ethan. His smile was soft, and as

  • The Billionaire’s Curvy Maid   I'm so sorry

    ~Mia~“I was honestly stunned when he told me. I... I was terrified to bring it up with Ethan because I didn’t want it to come off like I was pressuring him into something he wasn’t ready for, you know?” I said into the phone, lying on my bed.“I totally get that,” Sharon replied on the other end. “But I don’t think Mr. Cross would ever see it that way. He knows you’re still young and in college. It’s not like he’d expect you to jump into marriage just like that.”“I know, but it still made me start thinking about us again. Everything feels so messy. Or maybe I’m just spiraling,” I admitted.“That’s exactly it,” Sharon said. “You’re definitely overthinking it. Didn’t he already explain everything?”I let out a sigh and rolled my eyes. “I hate that you’re always right.”She laughed. “What can I say? It’s one of my best qualities.”“Yeah, yeah,” I replied playfully.“Yeah… before I forget the real reason I called. I heard Charles is out,” she said, and I raised my brows.“Yeah,” I exhal

  • The Billionaire’s Curvy Maid   The end goal

    ~Ethan~I sat on one of the chairs beside the office door, deep in conversation with my police friend about Alexa’s latest schemes, when the door suddenly opened and Mia stepped out.My face lit up the moment I saw her. She offered a smile in return, but it didn’t quite reach her eyes. My brows drew together as I rose to my feet.“Hey.” I reached for her hands and gently held them. “How are you? Are you okay?” I asked, concern lacing my voice.She swallowed and forced another smile. “Yeah,” she said with a small nod. “Let’s get out of here.”I nodded, still holding her hand as we walked down the hallway in silence.We didn’t say a word as we exited the building, and once we reached the car, I opened the door for her. She slid in without a word. I closed it softly behind her, then made my way around to the driver’s side.After settling into my seat, I started the engine and pulled out of the parking spot. As we drove, I stole occasional glances at her.Mia sat with her head down, finge
