I don't think it means mistress here..... kinikilig is not a noun but the one saying it used it like one. I believe that 'kinikilig' here is a sort of Feeling. The one saying that is saying like, "I want to be your made and someone who gives you a thrilling/exciting feeling".
Kinikilig = thrilled or excited.
Kinikilig =" to feel a thrill, to be thrilled, to have a shivering, exciting feeling"
