The commotion inside the clubhouse died down as soon as Roberts and his men went up to the second floor. Selena and Maria kept rolling their eyes as they stood in a corner watching the buzz. Selena never understood why a man would have such power. She did not even get a glimpse of him because of the crowd.It was like what is on every Friday night. Clubbing has been what Selena does when she was younger but the ugly past incident stopped her from clubbing and now she is here once more not just to club but to sleep with a man for her brother to live, not just a man but someone she knows nothing about. She checked her purse and there lay the pack of condoms she bought earlier.Sure, she can bypass the guilt for the second time. People were swirling from place to place, rocking their bodies to the music. The crowd was cheering the loudest. They screamed louder, danced the most, and even drank harder. There was this sense of freedom and excitement about everyone who knew how t
It was awkward seeing the way Maria was fiddling with her fingers. She felt like she should start a conversation but the words wouldn't come. She wants to talk to Caleb but the last thing she wanted was to sound like an idiot. Suddenly the sound of glass shattering disrupted her attention. They all looked to the source of the noise and saw one of the boys from the party break one of his beer bottles, cursing loudly at himself for losing control. Everyone around the table erupted in laughter as one of the girls grabbed his shoulders and threw herself on him. Everyone else joined in with their laughs which caused a raucous sound in the entire room. Selena looked at Maria and sighed, "too much for coming out tonight," she muttered and stood up, "I might need to use the restroom to check myself, you know, my makeup and all that."Maria nodded when she realized there is more to using the bathroom, she understood clearly what Selena meant."Ask for the rest room and don't get lost,"
The moment Selena walked out of the male restroom, she sighed deeply and went into the female restroom. Her fingers were shaking which indicates she was mad but what or who was she mad at? she can't be mad at the jerk she just met now. She can, following that he insulted her. What is really making her angry is what he said, his words were like a slap in her face, and she felt the sting in her heart.She leaned against the wall, feeling the tears pricking her eyes.For someone who knows nothing about her yet, he was quick to mock her. But what do you expect of a girl that carries a pack of condoms around?She sighed and looked at her reflection in the mirror. Her makeup had been ruined a little so she decided to tend to it. if she is going to find a man, she better not do it looking this way."Not so fast, Miss Red, you are forgetting your pack of condoms."His voice rang in her head. She chuckled in her tears and wondered why he would call her Miss Red, then it dawned on her that it
Maria sighted Mr Damson at a corner talking to a man in a shade and red suit with a hat that made it difficult for his face to be seen. The two were in a deep discussion so she stood at a safe distance to wait for him to be through with the man. She got busy with her phone as she waited for Mr Damson.Eli picked a drink on his way and pretended to be busy with his phone too as he waited within earshot.For a few minutes, the conservation between the two men persisted but Maria was not in a hurry to leave so she waited patiently.Finally, the two men were done and Mr Damson sighted Maria, he quickly recognized her and after the other men left, he walked briskly towards her with a huge smile on his face."Maria, darling"He greeted her with a peck. Maria chuckled after he pulled away from her."You seem to miss me, Mr Damson?"She asked him while smiling.He nodded happily"I do indeed".He gave her another quick kiss before checking her over,"Your presence lightens this place up for me
Maria watched her go and hoped that everything will work as planned and very soon, two of them will be leaving the Elite hotel with the money they came for.Once Selena disappeared behind the hotel door, Maria sighed. She wanted a drink now so she headed towards the bar."I want some shots of whiskey. Any kind"Maria told the bartender. She knew that she should have gone with water but she needed something strong to forget the spur of moment so some shots seemed fitting.After the bartender placed the drinks down, Maria gulped them down in no time.She did not leave, rather she watched this crowd do their thing while her mind was on her best friend, she was deeply worried for Selena. Not knowing the kind man Selena was going to meet gave her heart burns. After a few minutes, someone sat beside her at the bar and placed a hand on hers. Looking up, she saw none other than Caleb Hamilton himself looking at her with those puppy eyes of his. Maria rolled her eyes at him."I returned and I
Selena moved slowly but steadily towards the room. 210 Was written boldly on it. She knew that if she got inside the room, there would not be any going back. The closer she gets the more nervous she becomes."Selena calm down, you can do this"she tried to reassure herself.Taking in a deep breath to calm herself further, she knocked twice on the door but got no reply. She tried again for the third time yet no reply. She took a deep breath and looked at the card in her hand to be sure she was in the right place."Why is no one answering me?"She wondered and lifted her hands to knock again but that very moment the door swung open and she was pulled in instantly. She did not know how she got into the room and when she recovered, she froze. It actually looked like she was in the wrong room after all. Her mouth gaped open and her body shook slightly. A man dressed in black was standing right infront of her, blocking her way."Where is Selena?"The man said coldly. His dark hair framed hi
Selena felt humiliated and defeated. The gritting of her teeth could be heard not just by her but by the two men present in the room. One who is being an ass and the order who is on standby for any order to be given.If she could beat Robert, she would have done it since. Not only she is humiliated by the ba*rd, she was disrespected.She just has two options; to leave and risk her brother dying or swallow her pride and beg this man who feels like he is a god to help her. Not that he would be doing it for free,she is offering her body.Robert waited to hear the door close but it looked like it was not happening soon. Mike was darting his eyes from his boss to the lady behind him, contemplating whether to drag her out of the room since the boss had ordered her out.Selena looked around, distracting herself a little."Where are his men because I know that he has tons of them"She thought, hoping to hear the door opening soon. She heard nothing and sighed inwardly. Her attention was sudde
It didn't work as she saw his smirk deepen at her statement. His gaze lingered on her lips, causing her to bite hers in annoyance, before moving up to stare at her eyes. She averted her gaze immediately, not trusting herself to stay calm at that moment. She could almost hear his amused chuckle. Her hands began trembling. No matter how much she hated that asshole, he still made her blood boil, which was something she really didn't want.But then the anger drained from her. Her eyes softened towards him and her heart started beating faster. That man, he was dangerous. But somehow he calmed her in a different way. She was not sure if she knew what she was feeling at the moment. Sue could not understand and she did not want to understand, she was probably thinking too much. A man like this would make you pay for a very dime that he would give you."So can we get on with business now?"She muttered almost to herself. Mike was grinning already, thinking that his boss will hand Selena over t
