Chapter 2 - The Instant Hire
The silence in the dining room was heavy and absolute. Lily stared at Maya, entirely unaccustomed to an adult who didn't immediately cower or scream back.
Slowly, the arrogant facade crumbled just a fraction. Reluctantly, the little girl reached out, grabbed a white cloth from the center of the table, and began to aggressively wipe the spilled milk off the dark wood.
Standing in the background shadows of the dining room was a maid in a classic black and white uniform. She watched the little girl wipe the table, her eyes wide with absolute, unadulterated shock.
"Twelve nannies in two months," the maid whispered in sheer amazement. No one had ever successfully disciplined the child.
Suddenly, the heavy sound of leather shoes echoed from the room's perimeter.
Walking slowly down the elegant grand wooden staircase was Victor. The thirty-five-year-old man was heavily muscular, possessing a terrifying, lethal aura. He wore a tailored black suit jacket over black pants. Dark, intricate syndicate tattoos crawled up his neck, marking him as the most feared mafia boss in the city.
He stopped at the bottom of the stairs, looking at the clean table and the fearless young woman. A genuinely impressed, authoritative smile broke across his handsome face.
"You're hired," Victor announced, his deep voice commanding the entire room.
Maya looked up, her realistic facial micro-expressions shifting into immediate surprise. She uncrossed her arms as the imposing mafia boss stepped closer.
"But I haven't even had the interview," Maya said, slightly confused.
