Chapter 438 Made A Maid
ELIAS
After releasing once, my cock proved to be more monstrous than I thought.

I mean, I knew I was a hunk with a lot of stamina, but goodness, it couldn’t be satisfied with two releases. I needed to take a brief detour to deal with the issue. A cold shower, some harsh breathing, and every ounce of discipline I possessed.
I didn’t want her sensing the kind of chaos she stirred in me.
When I opened the door, I found her sitting at the edge of my bed–wearing the
spare clothes
I left for her, sleeves too long, pants slightly slipping at her hips. Her hair was still dripping down her back, soaking the collar of the shirt.
She looked so out of place on my bed.
I cleared my throat. “Feeling better?”
She shrugged, fingers combing through her wet hair. “I suppose.”
Water droplets slid down her wrist, tracing the faint bruises the doctor tried hard to soothe. She winced when her fingers snagged on a knot, and before I could stop myself, I clicked my
tongue.
“Give me that,” I muttered.
She frowned, confused, as I grabbed a towel and moved behind her. She stiffened only for a moment when my hands gently gathered her hair. I draped the towel around it, patting carefully.
“You’ll get sick going to bed like this.”
“It’s just hair,” she murmured.
“Still,” I said.
She didn’t argue. That alone told me she was exhausted.
I plugged in the blow dryer and began working through her hair section by section. Her shoulders slowly relaxed.
I felt myself smiling–just a little.

Chapter 438 Made A Maid
This felt strangely… domestic.
I shut down the thought before it had the chance to root.
“What’s your plan now?” I asked as casually as I could.
She paused for a moment before sighing.
“I don’t know,” she admitted. “I don’t have money. And I have nowhere else to go.”
“You can’t go back to them,” I said.

“I know,” she responded with a firm voice. “You don’t have to tell me that. I won’t be going back to Rowena and my cousins forever.”
I nodded, satisfied.
“However, like I said, I don’t have anywhere else to go.”
“I might sign up as a maid for someone.”
I nearly broke the blow dryer.
“What?” I asked, brows snapping together.
Her
eyes
“I said-”
widened for a second, like she didn’t expect my tone at all.
“I heard what you said,” I cut her off. “Why would you do that?”
She frowned. “Because I don’t have options, Elias. Montrose was at war for so long. There’s barely any work. If I want to earn money quickly, I have to take whatever is offered.”
“No,” I snapped before I could stop myself.
Her lips parted in confusion.
“No?” she echoed. “Why are you-
“You’re not becoming a maid for someone else,” I said.
“Who are you to tell me to do what I should with my life?” she asked.
I sighed in frustration. Right, she was the type who didn’t like getting help from other people.

She was just like Tessa and Arden. Goodness, the Moon G stubborn ladies of the land.
Well, I’m not saying that she’s mine.
I was just…
Whatever. I didn’t have to explain it to myself.
“Just stay here,” I said, gesturing to the room.

Her brows rose before she shook her head. “This is meant for those working in the government of Montrose. It’s newly built by you for that purpose.”
“You can’t make me stay here just because I need it. That would be unjust enrichment on my part. I can’t do that when there are other people who need help like me, too.”
“Just accept my help,” I said, sounding nearly desperate.
She sighed. “You’re already done with your business here in Montrose. In a couple of weeks, you will be going back to your home. We’re going to be living different lives”
“I can’t take up this room. That is final.”
“I would like to thank you for your help. I would be dead by now if you hadn’t found me. However, I need to stand on my own two feet.”
“Montrose is small,” I defended. “Rowena would capture you if she sees you.”
She shrugged. “Then, I would just work for someone with great influence. Probably Aiden Knight… or someone similar,” she whispered the latter part of the statement, but I still heard it clearly.
I put down the hairdryer on the bedside table forcefully, startling her for a second.
Then, very gently, I touched her shoulder so she would look at me.
“Mina,” I said.
“What?” she asked, crossing her arms stubbornly against her chest.
Her cheeks puffed up, and I had the urge to pinch them, but I stopped myself for now.
“Why don’t you just stay with me?”

She clicked her tongue. “Weren’t you listening?”
“I already told you that I can’t stay here-”
My exhale cut her off.

“Not here,” I said, making her brows furrow deeper in confusion. “In Fenra. Stay with me in Fenra. Let’s spend the holidays there; then we’ll come back here and have your aunt investigated.”
I waited for her answer, fully expecting her to agree.
My proposal was something she couldn’t resist, I was sure. However, Mina was truly someone who would always put me in place.
“No,” she deadpanned.
I bit my lip and closed my eyes in frustration.
