This story is about a spy who's ordered to spy on her FOUR HANDSOME yet DANGEROUS BOSSES.
Siyona, Alethea's younger sister, was always praised by her family. But Alethea was treated like an outsider in her own family.
FL's Mom
I'm proud of you Siyona. You're indeed my daughter.
Mom looks at Siyona proudly and then throws me a glare.
Siyona (FL' Sister)
The questions were damn easy. I came first again Mumma.
FL's Mom
Can't you learn anything from her Alethea?
Alethea
I...I'll do better next time...
FL's Mom
(Whispering) Sometimes I wonder if you're really my daughter.
Alethea
(Again.... every day I've to hear the same thing!)
FL's Dad
Dear, the client has arrived.
FL's Mom
Oh...wait, Alethea go prepare something for the client. Siyona come with me, let's greet the client.
As usual, she's ordered to work like a maid. Sometimes she thinks of running away from this family and never look back.
She prepares food for the client but goes to get something outside the kitchen. Then she returns and serves the food to everyone.
Siyona (FL' Sister)
Don't worry about your marks Alethea. Even if you don't get a job, I'm sure someone will definitely hire you as a maid.
Sebastian (FL's brother)
Pfft! I agree!!! Hahaha
Her mom scolds Siyona but the corner of her mouth curves. She's laughing internally.
On the other hand, her dad doesn't care. He only cares about money and business.
FL's Dad
You can begin eating, Mr. Lawris.
The whole time, Mr. Lawris was staring at Alethea in a creepy way, checking her out from top to bottom.
Mr. Lawris
Hmm... let's see what you've prepared my dear.
When they all take a taste of the food, they instantly spit it out.
Alethea
(What.. happened?!!)
She looks towards Siyona to find her smirking. Obviously it's her work. She added extra salt in all of the dishes.
Sebastian (FL's brother)
Ewww...wtf is this!
FL's Dad
.... disgraceful!!!
Her mom and dad are glaring at her. Her mom gets up and slaps her so hard that she falls down.
FL's Mom
Just how long do you think we have to tolerate you?!!! Do you know what the others say?!!! That you're adopted?!!! I don't understand how come I've a daughter like you!!!
Mr. Lawris
Calm down Mrs. Sloane. She's just a child.
Siyona (FL' Sister)
...mum...and her hair color is also different...no one in our family has silver hair....
FL's Mom
Now I'm having doubts!
She gets up from the floor and dashes out of there. She runs to her room and sobs lying on the bed.
Alethea
....cough...mhm...why......*sobbing*
Mr. Lawris
There you are, sweetheart.
She looks behind and there's Mr. Lawris near the doorway. He comes in and pats her on the head. She instantly becomes uncomfortable. Whenever he comes, he stares at her in l*stful gaze.
She tries to push him away, but he comes even closer. Then he gets up and shuts the door behind.
Mr. Lawris
I know dear how to take away all your sorrows.
He unbuttons his shirt and smirks as he strides towards her. She takes a step back but falls on the bed.
Mr. Lawris
Don't be scared baby...
He hovers over her and pins her on the bed. He then tears her clothes and grabs her b**bs. She screams calling out for help.
Alethea
Help!!! Mom dad!!! SOMEONE!!! PLEASE!!!
Mr. Lawris
No one will hear you. Let's do this peacefully, don't resist.
She tries to resist as much as possible but it's all in vain. He slides his hands inside her p@nties.
Mr. Lawris
Alethea baby, you-
She kicks him hand in the groin region and he falls back. Then she covers herself with the blanket and rushes out.
Kaz (FL's brother)
Baby... sister what happened to you?!!!
There were tears in her eyes. Kaz looked inside her room and understood what was happening. He came back from a business trip just a few minutes ago and he had to witness such a thing.
Kaz is the only person in the family who cares for her but he's not always at home. He's frequently out for business trips.
Alethea
Brother....help me!
She runs into his arms and he hugs her. Kaz was almost ready to kill Mr. Lawris but he held back for now.
Mr. Lawris
B*tch!!! How dare you kick me!!! I'll make sure your whole family suffers!!!
The other family members also come running.
FL's Mom
Just what's the matter?
Mr. Lawris
I'm cancelling the deal. Also I'll make sure no one makes any deal with your family!!!
He leaves fuming in anger.
Her mom and dad looked at Alethea with a death glare who was crying the whole time.
FL's Mom
JUST WHAT TF DID YOU DO?!!!
She was about to slap Alethea but Kaz stopped her.
Kaz (FL's brother)
Mom, do you understand what he tried to do?!!!
FL's Mom
Maybe she asked for it. And what's wrong with sleeping with him anyway. She's completely useless, at least she can help us by sleeping with clients.
Siyona (FL' Sister)
Exactly, I'm with mom .
Sebastian (FL's brother)
Haah. She can at least sell her body.
Kaz (FL's brother)
MOM? I CAN'T BELIEVE YOU!!!
Kaz (FL's brother)
Why do you all always treat her like that!!!
Kaz (FL's brother)
You'll should be ashamed!!!
They all just scoff and leave. Kaz hugs Alethea and spends his day with her.
After a few days, she heard that Mr. Lawris will renew the deal if Alethea becomes his wife. Unsurprisingly, her family agreed. Alethea couldn't take their abuse anymore. She fled from her home.
After a few days, she got news that Mr. Lawris was m*rdered and his brother, Kaz, is now in jail.
***************
A FEW YEARS LATER
I bid goodbye to the bartender I just slept with.
I get lost in my thoughts, but then I hear my phone buzzing with notification.
Alethea
(That's a message from Mika)
Alethea
(What does he want?)
Alethea
(I hope it's not ANOTHER MISSION!!!)
Alethea
(I just got free time!!!)
I check my phone to read his messages.
Mika/ FL's Friend
✉️Mr. Valentino was asking about you
Mika/ FL's Friend
✉️He says he has something to talk to you about.
Mika/ FL's Friend
✉️I think it's very important. It would be better if you go meet him tomorrow morning.
Alethea
(Mr. Valentino? What does that old man want now?)
Mika/ FL's Friend
You're late. You were playing with a boy toy, weren't you?
He speaks in a mocking tone and I just roll my eyes.
Mika/ FL's Friend
Now hurry, he looks too uneasy for some reason.
I take a long breath before pushing the door to Mr. Valentino's office as I enter inside.
I look around to see there's definitely something off today. As Mika mentioned, Mr. Valentino looks glum and the atmosphere is too gloomy.
Mr. Frederick Valentino
You're finally here. Take a seat. I need to discuss something urgently.
He points towards the sofa in front of him. I get seated as instructed and patiently wait for him to speak.
I look at him curiously yet anxiously awaiting the bad news.
He sighs before finally speaking. He fills me in the details I'm bewildered to hear them.
Mr. Frederick Valentino
I need you to steal that from them.
Alethea
...that's just...I mean...how...
Mr. Frederick Valentino
I know they're dangerous men but right now we have no other option but to get involved with them.
Mr. Frederick Valentino
You know I entrusted you with this mission because I've my utmost faith in you.
Alethea
I'm honored, but I'm.... having doubts..
Mr. Frederick Valentino
I have an idea but...
Mr. Frederick Valentino
It's risky. Seduce them, earn their trust and find where they have kept the card.
Alethea
....(seriously?... Seduce them?)
Alethea
(Not that it would be difficult but once I get caught....then)
Mr. Frederick Valentino
Just be cautious. Don't get caught
He speaks with a stern voice
Alethea
(Did he just read my thoughts?)
Alethea
... understood. I'll take care.
Alethea
(If I get caught it'll be the end of me!)
Alethea
(They're totally merciless to those who betray them!)
Mr. Frederick Valentino
You're smart. I trust you
Mr. Frederick Valentino
Larissa
Mr. Frederick Valentino
That'll be your name from now on. You'll need a fake name. Make your profile and story ready. You have to get ready to answer all of their questions.
Mr. Frederick Valentino
Make sure it's believable and doesn't leave space for suspicion.
Alethea
(So,I'll be going to a foreign country.)
Alethea
(After reaching there, what's the first thing I should do?)
Mr. Frederick Valentino
I know what you're thinking.
Alethea
.. just how? How do you always read me old man?
Mr. Frederick Valentino
Ahem! I'm not old. I'm just 42 and-
Alethea
Ugh just stop with that. Alright, I'm sorry
Mr. Valentino has been raising me since I got abandoned by my parents.
Miraculously he always knows what I'm thinking.
To my parents, I was always a disappointment. My other siblings are all excellent and the favored ones, I was always expected to do better. I worked hard day and night, but I couldn't do as well as them in academics.
No matter how much I tried, I couldn't be on the same level as them.
I couldn't take emotional abuse anymore from my parents. They were expecting too much from me. Once, I overheard my parents and relatives saying maybe when I was born, I was switched with someone else's baby in the hospital.
They tried to get me married to a 45-year-old wealthy businessman. He was abusive and often looked at me with a creepy, lustful gaze. I was so f*cking disgusted.
They constantly told me how they're ashamed to have a daughter like me. They always were.
I was relieved when they cut ties with me. Now I'm doing better.
Mr. Frederick Valentino
Stop overthinking.
Mr. Frederick Valentino
So what I was saying... right
Mr. Frederick Valentino
They'll be having a party a week later. You attend it. Show your talent and attract their attention.
Mr. Frederick Valentino
Also I recommend you apply to their company. And try to get as close as possible
Alethea
(.... honestly, I don't like betraying people. But in this case I have no choice)
Alethea
I'll start preparing for things.
Mr. Frederick Valentino
The sooner the better.
{[FL's name is Larissa Bailey (fake name) which she'll be using for the mission.]}

(New country, new city, new vibe)
Larissa Bailey
(I've heard the night life is best here. Maybe I'll check into a hotel before moving in a new apartment)
I checked into a hotel and looked for an apartment online. Fortunately, I found an apartment.
Larissa Bailey
(There's no option I've to live in this small apartment)
I look around to see a girl with light blonde hair standing in the doorway. Must be my roommate.
Larissa Bailey
Hello, it's Larissa
Lucy
Oh Larissia? I'm Lucy. Nice to meet you.
Lucy
You're so pretty girl.
Larissa Bailey
...Thank you.
Larissa Bailey
So...can you show my room?
Larissa Bailey
(There's no space here...how am I supposed to live here? God knows how long.)
Lucy
Is it not to your liking? You seem-
Larissa Bailey
No, it's beautiful.
Larissa Bailey
Thank you for showing my room.
Lucy
No problem. I'm always happy to help.
Larissa Bailey
(She seems like a friendly and chill person)
Larissa Bailey
(There's one problem though. My office will be 2.5 hrs away from this city)
Larissa Bailey
(I better start preparing for the party immediately)
Larissa Bailey
(Today's the day!)
I've to get ready for the party. I can't be late because I have to give my best performance. I just hope I don't make any mistakes.
I arrive at the venue and there are several elite guests.
I'm waiting for my turn as numerous people are getting up on the stage to show their talent. I'm so mesmerized by everything. A beautiful girl gets on the stage. Once she starts singing I can't help but notice she almost sounds like a siren.
Soon it's my chance and I get up on the stage to show my dancing skills. It's been a while since I've danced, but I still try my best. I've to catch "their" attention. I've spent these past few days practicing a lot. I can't fail or else it's over.
After I'm done performing everyone goes silent.
The silence is then followed by a loud applause. I think I did. The crowd seems impressed.
I was getting bored but then a blonde woman gets on the stage. She starts playing piano. Honestly I don't have much knowledge, but it does seem like she's proficient at what she's doing.
Wait, I think she's the famous actress Caroline Mendez. How come I didn't recognize her? She's pretty well known worldwide. Even in my country.
After a few performances I see the person whom I came here for. AUGUSTINE D'ANGELO
I repeat the name in my head. For a moment it seemed like he locked eyes with me. Nah, maybe I'm just imagining things.
Though I wonder where the others are.
Augustine D'Angelo, Alistair Levine, Nikolai Silvius, Lucien Ivers. My targets
People seem pretty excited awaiting for him to start singing.
I can't help but notice how handsome he is.
CROWD: I can't believe Mr. Augustine D'Angelo can sing. How come he was hiding it all along?
The crowd awaits in anticipation and he soon starts singing.
Augustine D'Angelo
🎶You're here, I'm here as well.
Augustine D'Angelo
🎶Come closer so that I can say within a moment I went crazy for you.
Augustine D'Angelo
🎶When I saw you I lost my senses.
Augustine D'Angelo
🎶My heart went restless and lost control. I'm so lost and intoxicated. I'm going crazy
The crowd goes silent. Soon there's applause
Larissa Bailey
(His voice...I believe it has the ability to awaken a person in coma)
Larissa Bailey
(He has an amazing hidden talent for singing, I hope he keeps it hidden)
Larissa Bailey
(Or else people will suffer listening to him)
He does have a good deep yet clear voice when he speaks, but he has absolutely no talent in singing. I hope I don't have to hear that again or else I'll be deaf very soon.
It's soon time to leave the party. I hope I've left some impressions.
As I'm about to leave I'm approached by two tall figures. They're none other than Augustine D'Angelo and Lucien Ivers.
Augustine D'Angelo
........
Larissa Bailey
(Why are they silent. Are they dumb?)
They stare at me for a while. Augustine D'Angelo was looking at me with an expressionless face while Lucien Ivers was looking amused.
Larissa Bailey
(Are they broken? I've a feeling they're not functioning properly)
I finally break the silence.
Larissa Bailey
Hello Mr. Augustine D'Angelo and Mr. Lucien Ivers
Larissa Bailey
Good evening
Lucien Ivers
Hey cutie. What's your name?
3
I put on my best fake smile.
Larissa Bailey
I'm Larissa.
Lucien Ivers
Well then, it's nice to meet you Larissa.
Larissa Bailey
(He seems like an easygoing person unlike...the other one... Augustine D'Angelo)
Lucien Ivers
You are a really talented dancer. So how long have you been dancing?
Larissa Bailey
Ah...I just dance as a hobby. Only when I get time.
He ponders something for a moment.
Lucien Ivers
...such a waste! I think you should put it to good use. You have amazing flexibility and posture too.
Larissa Bailey
I'm really honored. Thank you, Mr. Ivers.
Lucien Ivers
So... Larissa...
He chuckles and points at Augustine D'Angelo who's standing there quietly and listening to our conversation this whole time.
Lucien Ivers
What did you think of this guy's singing talent?
Lucien Ivers gives Augustine a teasing smile.
Augustine D'Angelo
...stop smiling at me like that. You're annoying!
Lucien Ivers
Oh? Let's listen to this missy how she feels
They turn their gazes towards me anticipating my answer.
Larissa Bailey
(He sounded horrible...but I can't tell him that)
Larissa Bailey
Uh..you have an amazing voice... almost like an angel from heaven.
Augustine D'Angelo lifts his eyebrows questioningly as if he can see I'm lying. He's totally not convinced.
Lucien Ivers looks at me curiously.
Larissa Bailey
Also your singing has the ability to take lives..ah... I mean give lives....
Larissa Bailey
(Sh*t! I messed up!)
I look at Mr. Ivers to see as if he's trying to hold a laugh.
While Augustine D'Angelo is giving me a death glare.
Mr. Ivers breaks down in laughter unable to hold it anymore
Lucien Ivers
Pfft haha... you're really an interesting girl.
Lucien Ivers
Now this sounds way honest.
Larissa Bailey
I...I didn't mean that!
I still see Mr. D'Angelo glaring at me
Augustine D'Angelo
Haah! Not funny!!!
Lucien Ivers
You'll scare the little missy with that intimidating face of yours.
Augustine D'Angelo
I don't need advice from you!
Lucien Ivers
No wonder you're single.
Giving me a last glare, Augustine D'Angelo leaves.
Lucien Ivers
I hope he cools down. I don't know why he's angry all the time.
Lucien Ivers
Here's my business card. If you ever need a job just give me a call.
He winks at me with a charming smile.
Larissa Bailey
Thank you Mr. Ivers. I'm grateful
Larissa Bailey
(But I've already applied to their company as a personal assistant. Soon I'll have an interview)
He gives me a last smile and leaves.
Larissa Bailey
...(I wonder what working there will be like...)
I got up late as I was too tired due to yesterday's party.
I'm still in my night clothes as I head towards the kitchen.
I take a spot on the sofa. I'm welcomed by the aroma of fresh coffee.
Lucy
You're finally awake. Here's some coffee.
Larissa Bailey
Thanks Lucy.
We actually share a common kitchen which is downstairs.
Lucy
So...how was the party?
She sits beside me and hands me over some bread toasts.
Larissa Bailey
...nothing special, just so-so.
Lucy
Really? So you didn't meet any hot guys?
Larissa Bailey
...uh there were some...but not really my type.
Lucy
Oh, common Larissa. You look too serious sometimes. I don't know why, but I always feel like you're very distant and secretive.
Lucy
I feel like you should have fun. And maybe if you feel like...you can tell me what you feel.
Larissa Bailey
...Lucy... I think you're correct. Thanks.
Lucy
Who needs handsome guys, when you'll be having handsome bosses soon.
Lucy
You'll be joining Las Aegis enterprises, right?
Larissa Bailey
Yes, I have an interview tomorrow.
Lucy
I'll help you tomorrow. You've to look your best.
Yesterday evening after going shopping for hours, Lucy picked a few clothes for the interview
Larissa Bailey
...I'll wear this one.
Lucy
You're looking damn gorgeous. Go rule queen!
Larissa Bailey
Thank you for helping me so much. Even though you were busy.
As I walk in I'm mesmerized by the architecture.
I confidently walk in and ask the receptionist where I'm supposed to go.
I hope I'm looking alright and I don't make any mistakes. Even though I know Esmerian language, it's been a while since I've spoken.
I have to ace this interview or this will be the end. I can't fail. I'm here on a mission
I ask the receptionist and she guides me where I'm supposed to go. Apparently, "my bosses" have the whole floor to themselves.
I take the lift towards the highest floor. Once I reach there, I step out of the lift.
I was about to knock on the floor when-
Marilyn
What do you think you're doing?
A blonde woman stares at me with an annoyed expression.
Larissa Bailey
I'm here for an interview for the job of a personal assistant.
Marilyn
Hah! You don't have to come here. There's no need for one when they already have one
Larissa Bailey
But I was told-
Marilyn
I don't care, just leave!
Larissa Bailey
(What's her problem exactly?)
Suddenly, I hear a voice from inside the door. It sounds very deep and masculine.
The voice: Who's there? Marilyn?
Marilyn
Um...boss...no one just someone lost their way. I'm guiding her.
Larissa Bailey
(Oh really?)
Larissa Bailey
May I come in sir?
Larissa Bailey
I'm here for the interview.
Marilyn
You!! I told you to-
She looks at me with an angered expression. I ignore her, push the door open and step in.
I find myself alone in a vast room with two handsome men. They stop whatever they are doing and gaze up to look at me.
Suddenly, I feel a bit nervous as they scrutinize me.
Alistair Levine
You must be Miss Bailey. Come take a seat.
I take a seat in front of them.
Larissa Bailey
(Here they are. My other two targets)
The other one just stares at me without saying anything. He's a bit intimidating.
Larissa Bailey
Good morning Mr. Levine and Mr.Silvius. I'm Larissa Bailey.
Larissa Bailey
It's nice to meet you both.
Alistair Levine
Then let's get started if you're ready.
First they asked me a few normal questions then a few questions here and there. I did my best to answer everything with confidence.
It seems like they're satisfied.
They discuss a few things with each other. As they were talking, I couldn't help but notice their flawless skincare and hair.
Larissa Bailey
(I wonder what hair products they use...)
They turn to look at me in bewilderment. As I come back to my senses I realize I said that aloud.
Larissa Bailey
(Sh*t! It's over!!!)
