Prologue
“I can’t believe I’ve really ended up here!” I said to myself angrily. I was just a Wealthy, Bold, Dauntless, Tough Mafia Princess days ago! Just how the hell did I become a Normal, Clueless, Timid, Hotel maid?! This is totally unbelievable! What’s more worse, I cannot express my anger to my surroundings! I am so done with this fake life of mine! I was holding a mop and pale while going to the guest rooms. I opened the door to clean the messy bedroom. I let go of the pale and it fell loudly on the floor and the water were spilled. “I’m supposed to be living an extravagant life! It’s supposed to be me who must live here, and not clean!”
I am so done that I’m not in the mood doing my ‘cleaning job.’ So I walked angrily and sat on the sofa. I placed my hand on my forehead thinking about how I ended up in this unbelievable place…
*A FEW DAYS AGO*
All my life people serve me. All my life I get rid of people who are worthless to me. All my life I’m always trained to be the next successor of our Mafia Organization. Right back when I was still a child, People surrounding me always gives me their fake smiles and fake praise. I know that the other dangerous and noble people don’t see me as one of them. They are only forced to act that way since I was adopted by the most powerful, influential, well-heeled, family in Italy. They are Luciana Filicaja and Roberto Filicaja.
They are the leaders of the most powerful Mafia Organization in the underground called ‘The Red Sand Scorpions.’ Because of these things, I was raised differently unlike the other children. I grew up at a different environment. My adoptive parents never had any children. That is why they’ve adopted me back when I was still an infant. My mother told me that they’d found me at the side of the streets back when the country was at chaos. I am thankful to them since they’d save me from that horrendous place. If it weren’t for them, I must be dead by now. Or who knows where I am even. And because of my new life, I must live up to this and prove to all the people that my parents did not made a mistake on taking me.
As I grew up, I’ve showed to everyone that I am a capable person. I bested anyone and I excel in every battle there is. I showed them that I am not just an ordinary spoiled brat. As a Mafia Princess, I never become spoiled. I grew up only thinking about a way to impress the people around me. And because of my determination, success, and intelligence, people around me doesn’t look lowly on me anymore. Some even forgot that I was adopted to the Filicaja family. Every missions my Mother and Father gave me, I always return with success. I never failed any mission. People now looked up to me and praise me. This time, it isn’t fake like the ones back when I was still a kid. I am not sure if all my life I’m going to be a mobster, there are always unexpected things that happens so I must be prepared and must have a clean job. And that gives me the idea to build my own business. And that’s how my Hotel and Casino was built. It is the #1 Hotel and Casino in Italy, named Green Emerald. I thought things will just be the same as my daily routine, until one day…
I just got home from work when one of the servants came up to me and said that My Father wanted me to come to his office right this moment. I was actually exhausted but since my father ordered me, then I should. So I went directly to his office. He’s comfortably sitting on his chair reading documents. He looked at me and said; “Finally. You’re here. I’ve been waiting for you. Have a seat.” Something’s telling me that I wouldn’t like what’s going happen. “What’s the occasion?” I said to him. “I wanted you to do something for me. “What, you want me to get rid of someone? Go into war? Make some business deals? What?” “I know that you’re a no ordinary girl and fearless. You know how to fight and protect yourself. After all, you’re part of the Mafia and you’re the daughter of the Leader of a Powerful Mafia. But that wouldn’t be the case this time.” He said calmly. “So? What’ll it be?” He was silent for a moment. Then he replied; “I don’t trust these reports and other documents about certain happenings in Japan anymore. I might be asking for information to our private spies, but something’s telling me that there’s something more into it. As you can see, As the current head mobster of a powerful mafia organization, there are a lot of people out there who wanted to be in my place and will do everything to take it away from me. That is why I cannot trust people surrounding me. Specially these private investigators. The documents and reports they gave me doesn’t reflect the situation happening about the underground organization in Japan at all.” “So what do you want me to do?” I asked. “Simple, go to Japan and see what’s really happening in there. Specially all the dangerous happenings that involves our field. Tell me about all of our accomplices if they are really still on our side.” “Ok, so I guess they’re going to prepare something grand. For a person like me is going to visit—” Before I could finish, Father, or rather Boss interrupted. “Why will they prepare something grand?” I was surprised by his question. “Boss, I’m Serena Filicaja, I—” “Whoever said about you going to Japan as Serena Filicaja?” I was confused and got no idea about what Boss is talking about. “You’re going to Japan, not as Serena Filicaja, not as the daughter of Luciana and Roberto Filicaja, but you will go in Japan and work at the hotel, As..A..’MAID’.” The moment I’d heard what he said, I directly stood up in range. “WHAT?!” “Sit down Serena.” The Boss looks at me with frigid eyes. I calmed myself and sat down at the chair. “It wouldn’t take forever. Just give me details, and that’s it.” “But you know they’re going to recognize me.” “Don’t worry about that. We have skill full workers who can give you materials and needed for you not to look like the current you.” “And what if I wouldn’t take this offer?” The boss laughed. “You wouldn’t do that. You’re my daughter after all. I know that you don’t back down on every challenge I give you. But if you really won’t…Then what good are you?” I was kinda speechless this time. Boss always gives missions that makes a person pushed in a corner and got no choice but to agree. “But if you want real information, why make my job as a maid? Why not any other jobs?” “You stand out too much. Other noble people can easily figure out it’s you. But you being a maid is the last thing they’ll ever imagine. Just who on Earth will make the Mafia Boss’ daughter a maid right?” “But wouldn’t it be hard to get information in this career? A maid’s world is too far and out of reach from the underground.” “And that’s exactly why I gave you this mission, Serena. You’re the perfect woman for the job. You don’t rely on anyone and can beat up anyone. I know you can find a way to make it to the top. Use whatever drastic procedure that is. As long as you can provide me something.” “Did Mamma say anything about this?” “She’s the one who gave me the idea.” I sighed. “Fine whatever. All I need is to find out whether those files were true right? If those men of yours were acting something behind our backs, will you give me the honor to dispose them?” I looked at the boss with fiery eyes. The boss just smiled, “You can do whatever you want.” He grinned at me. I turned around and went for the exit. “Those jerks, if it weren’t for those kind of people I wouldn’t end up in this ridiculous mission. I’ll make sure that they’ll pay for this.
~Fast Forward~
And that’s how I ended here in this crazy situation. I looked at my watch and saw that I’ve wasted a lot of time thinking about what happened before so I annoyingly stood up, grab the mop and start moping and cleaning the bedroom. This has been my daily routine here in Japan as a maid now. Although, the hotel gets busier since today is the beginning of the important party in this hotel, Known as the I.V.C Party.
