Maid for the Mafia by Jaylee

I Hate You

**ROMANY**

Swimming with Simone was a blast. I had asked Mickey before their 'Private Meeting', to instruct the kitchen staff to bring us snacks and boos. They did not disappoint. However, I could see the little glares of anger they tossed Simone's way. It was as if they abhorred serving one of their own. *God those maids were something else.*

"How does it feel to be *served* for once?" I asked her when we were done swimming and sunbathing on the deck.

"Great," she sighed, lathering her petite body with sun tan lotion before she lay back down.

I had given her the smaller swimsuits that were in my closet. She had a tiny frame. Cute and fit. She filled out the top of the bikini perfectly. Personally, I wasn't into tan lines, so after a quick look around to make sure we were still alone, I untied my swimsuit and lay naked under the sun.

"I wish I had your body," Simone said suddenly. "I hate my tiny little titties. I will never have the confidence that you have."

I burst out laughing, then shook my head at her. "Are you kidding me? You're gorgeous! Perfectly shaped. I'd die to be as tiny as you."

"Nice try," Simone quipped, tossing her long dark hair over one shoulder. "I see the way the boss looks at you. And Mister Scavo. Damien too. They are *in love.*"

I rolled my eyes. "You're kidding, right? Alex? The only thing that Alex loves is himself and his power."

She shook her head, sitting up. "Trust me, girl. I have been working here for two years and in that time, I have seen many different females come and go. Including Miss Stella, although God knows what became of her."

*She's dead.* "She has been gone a while, hasn't she?" I said like a phony ass fucking hypocrite. "Maybe she was fired. I know she did something that pissed Alex off terribly. He wasn't going to get over it." She met my eyes, her face going dark with understanding. "I see."

nodded. "I think that you do." *Of course the maids

I always thought of him as so cold and cruel. Stella promised that he'd fire me if I ever so much as approached him with one of my requests. That's why I was so sure he would say no, that I couldn't swim with you. But thanks to you, I know a different side of him now and I feel like he
