《Marrying the Capo》Chapter Nine
Advertisement
When I woke up the sun was high. I immediately got out of bed and went straight to the bathroom. Washed then toothbrushed. Then, I got off and went to the kitchen. The cooking assistants are already busy. Some are purely cleaning back and forth.
An assistant approached me. "Are you new here?"
"Huh?" The only thing I could answer to her. I don't know what to answer. They're not familiar and no one here was here last night.
"The boss won't be happy when you work so slowly. Wear it." She handed me a uniform. "Help here so you won't be punished. By the time hit 10 am they are over, the bosses will be down."
"Uhm..I'm not an-"
She suddenly handed me the mop she was holding then left the kitchen. I looked around at the maids. They were not here last night. Really, no one. The maid who gave me water when we first came here was also not here.
I saw different emotions in their eyes. Some are disgusted, some are judgmental, and others are simply shaken.
"She feels like she's the owner of the house. Look at her dress, that's really what she wore on her first day here?" I even heard a maid whisper.
"She didn't seem to know what she was entering." Someone is still sneering.
I looked at the uniform in my arms. "Are you really just going to stare at that?"
I turned around and saw again the woman who gave me this uniform. She grabbed my arm then pulled me toward the sink. The maid who was washing there was dismissed then I was pushed. "You wash that. And when you haven't acted yet when I come back you will taste how bitch I am." She growls.

She looked at the other maids. "What are you looking at ?! All of you will work if you don't want to be punished!" She shouted and then left the kitchen.
The other helpers obeyed immediately so I just turned around and then touched the utensils used for cooking. ‘How is this? I know nothing about housework. I might just break here. '
Someone approached me. "I'm sorry for her behavior. That's just the way it is, she feels like she's the queen here. Are you new?" I shook then she frowned.
"Why are you here then? What do you do for a living?"
"I was here yesterday. I also don't know why Nicolas didn't send me home. It's a good thing though because I don't have work on Saturday."
"Nico-? Huh ?!" She even screamed.
The other assistant looked at us. "Didn't you hear what Ms. Jones said? Go to work if you don't want to be punished." The person I was talking to just glare to the maid and then back at me.
"Why do you only call the boss Nicolas?"
"He's my fiancè." I answered.
"Holy molly! You serious? Why did you just say that thing now? You should never touch this thing." Then she immediately grabbed the uniform in my hands and threw it away.
She hesitated to look into my eyes then bowed to me and led me to the dining hall and made me sit there. "Do you want something to eat, Ma'am?" She ask.
"Uhm ... please don't do that." Our eyes met. "Don't bow at me like that, I'm not a royalty."
"I'm sorry. We have to do that. I'm sorry Ma'am for Ms. Jones. When the boss finds out, she's dead and that's only good for her because of her ugly behavior."
I smiled at her. "Can you get me a coffee?"
"Right away, Ma'am."

The Devils Of The Biterrain
Zavier was an unremarkable suburbanite living just outside of Seattle. He was finishing up his final semester of high school and preparing to go to college despite a nagging lack of excitement for his future. In the blink of an eye, his life is thrown into chaos when Zavier meets a young man from an alien world named Yafu. Yafu has accidentally been thrown to Earth via portal while chasing the dangerous Poison Fang cult on his world. These two boys quickly come into contact with Arigo, a mysterious and powerful defender of Earth from various interlopers from Yafu’s world, known as the Biterrain. When Arigo discovers that Zavier was used as an unknowing and seemingly impossible vessel for the Fang to try to invade Earth, Arigo decides to send the two boys, along with his faithful assistant Anenna, to the Biterrain for answers on Zavier’s anomalous condition. In this new and dangerous world, Zavier weighs his own feelings of personal inadequacy against the backdrop of his sudden and mysterious importance. Meanwhile Yafu struggles with the limits to his thirst for vengeance and ultimately his future without it. Finally, Anenna must begin to confront a new identity as the last parts of her old one abandon her. In the background of their journey is the mystery around the Immortal King, the mythic founder of the Biterrain’s dominant religion who allegedly disappeared to Earth many millennia ago. Despite the planet being central to the dogma around their messiah figure, Earth has been relegated to myth and conjecture by the general populace of the Biterrain due to their inability to validate its existence in the present time. How will Zavier navigate in a world where he holds its holy grail within his own identity and who can he really trust in a world of such contrived obliviousness?
