Maid for the Mafia by Jaylee

Chapter 64

The Little Cheating Whore

**MICKEY**

I almost can't believe she's here with me, on my *jet*, but she is. The first time I saw her, she was only eighteen, and I knew back then she was much too young for me. She was completely innocent. Untouched. If I had approached her during that time I would have ruined the woman she was turning out to be. So, I sat back and waited. Watching as she changed from a naive young girl into a traumatized young woman. Burning in secret as Professor Jensen attempted to stamp out her light. I would have stepped in *then* if I thought saving her would have helped, but I knew she had to learn about the man on her own. You see, because sometimes when you try to shield someone from evil, all you do is hinder them. They don't learn to fight for themselves when there is always someone there to rescue them and when the day comes that they have to go it alone, they're lost.

As it turns out, realistically, you can't *always* be there anyway. No matter how much you might want to be.

I learned that lesson long before I ever laid eyes on my little doll.

The music of her laughter snagged my attention as my jet took to the skies. The bottom of her robe has crept open, leaving me with a tantalizing view of her wonderfully tanned legs and I'm forced to adjust myself in my chair as I watch her. The seats on my jet are large and spacious, three to a side, six in total. She is across the aisle from me, staring out the window while she watches the ground get smaller and smaller. Something was telling me that she had never been on a plane before tonight. That knowledge alone kept me smiling.

I would have preferred it if she'd left her little friend at home, but I'll take what I can get. Besides, once I get them both to my house, I'll steal away with her. Take her to my *private* penthouse in the city where we can be alone. Where Alex *won't* be able to find her when he comes looking, because he doesn't even know it exists.

And Alex *will* be coming for her. I can feel it.

"It's so beautiful from up here," Romany commented. "It's amazing."

"You get used to it," I said, my eyes steady on her. "This place is nothing compared to what it's like flying into the Maldives. One of my favorite spots to vacation. Maybe you'll let me take you sometime."

"The Maldives!?" she exclaimed. "Are you kidding? I would love that."

"Then I will plan for it," I said easily.
