An innocent maid catches the eye of a prince whose heart has darkened. Her rise from servitude to supernatural wealth becomes a threat. To claim his love, she must confront the source of darkness-and risk a terrifying fate.
STORY NOTES
Maid for Him is more than just a love story-it's a reimagining of a powerful childhood tale that stayed with me for years.
Growing up, I often heard stories whispered by the elders-moral tales passed down by word of mouth. One in particular left a mark: the tale of two girls. One good, one selfish. One got lost by accident on an errand and served a mermaid with kindness-returning with wealth beyond dreams. The other went on purpose, rude and entitled, and returned to open a box that released snakes which consumed her. That story was haunting and unforgettable-and it taught us, as children, about the value of humility, kindness, and the price of greed.
As a writer, I couldn't resist weaving that folklore into a world of my own: a misty kingdom, a cursed prince, a girl who serves without expecting reward, and the deadly secrets that guard love and power.
Amber's journey from maid to miracle is rooted in that memory-but wrapped in the allure of dark romance, where love comes at a cost, and the heart isn't safe even when it's full.
If you've ever loved a tale that made you afraid and fascinated all at once-welcome. This story is yours now, too.

"Please, please let me go. I beg of you!" I pleaded with the unknown voice.
"Now you know I can't do that." The voice said, it's robotic sound angered me.
"W-why?" Tears wouldn't stop sliding down my face.
"Because you're the key to my happiness."
