Rushiram Corvin Tersigni had his life perfectly planned-quiet, orderly, and predictable. Every morning followed a routine, every task completed exactly as expected, and his world moved at the speed he allowed. Peaceful. Calm. Boring, maybe-but at least nothing could ruin it. And then That Native Maid arrived, named Malitan Lakandula-clueless about his world, fumbling every simple task, asking questions that made no sense, and somehow turning his carefully controlled life into chaos. Every eye-roll, every sarcastic remark, every small rebellion tested his patience in ways he didn't know were possible. Infuriating, impossible... and yet, there was something about That Native Maid he couldn't ignore, no matter how much she annoyed him.
