JULIET'S POV

‘What? Don’t tell me he did that!’ Daphne slammed her hand on the table in shock.

‘Why does he keep doing things like that? After all, he is the owner of this freaking club!’ Daphne groaned, tears dropping out of my eyes.

‘I know, but it won't just stop, and I have to pay my brother so he won't be a dropout,’ I responded, sniffing in my tears. Her hand patted my back, sending a comfort.

‘Thank you so much,’ I whispered, seeing the time; it was almost time to strip again. Daphne handed me some juice.

‘Here, have this to cool yourself,’ she handed it to me. I was always fine whenever I was with her; she was more than just a friend to me. I collected the juice, taking it down my throat, gulping it down.

‘Thank you, Daphne,’ I responded, wearing my heels. It was time for me to go strip. Walking outside, everyone shouting, ‘Here she is, beautiful!’ These were the words they were chanting as I stepped onto the stage. A cheering applause was made; it was said that I was beautiful by the men, which made me feel high of myself sometimes.

The disco lights popped on, and dazzling music started. Everyone cheered. In my silk gown, hair perfectly styled, and makeup flawless, I twisted my body around the pole, giving the crowd my most enchanting look. Biting my lips seductively, I lifted my weight like a gymnast, twisting around the pole, my fingers trailing my curves straight to my chest. The men's eyes were all over me, filled with lust. My gaze suddenly locked with someone in the crowd ,a man with intense blue eyes. His aura made me feel both uneasy and intrigued.

Sending something strange to my body, feeling unease with his gaze, at the same time loving it. With my eyes still locked with his, I moved up, spinning and making a more captivating movement, which made everyone's mouths drop in awe. While others were staring, he was unmoved by anything, instead giving me a cold gaze.

Finally, the music stopped. Removing my eyes off the stranger, I went down to pick up the money being sprayed. I was so excited; I had earned enough, and my brother wasn't going to drop out of school, feeling fulfilled.

‘Hello, Daphne,’ with a smile spread across my lips, I jumped towards her.

‘I did it!’ I uttered those words as we both jumped joyfully around the dressing room. She cleared her throat all of a sudden.

‘Tobias seeks your presence, one bad news,’ she uttered. The name of Tobias sent a shiver down my spine.

‘What? I thought he wouldn't come to the club today,’ my mind began to race in fear, knowing what might happen if I'm not careful.

‘I know it's heartbreaking, but he seeks your presence,’ she uttered. ‘Good luck, bestie,’ she patted my back, abandoning me to go strip on stage. My heart was racing, not knowing the purpose why he was calling. He must have seen me from the CCTV earning money; that's why I quickly hid the money between my bra, taking some steps towards the elevator.

Pressing the button, I took a deep breath, entering it. Finally, it was opened, and I was standing right in front of the monster, the monster I called my boyfriend's office.

‘Do not let me call you in before you enter,’ his voice sounded from the inside, sending me a chill down my spine. Taking a deep breath, I gathered the courage and opened the door, stepping inside.

My hands were shaking, sweating profusely. There was AC inside the room, but I was still feeling suffocated by everything.

‘Well, well, well, what do we have here?’ his voice sounded, bringing me back to my mind.

Taking a deep breath, I took a step backward, as if walking up to me. His aura and his eyes were sending me goosebumps. There was something I have about myself that is giving Tobias a chance in my life. I can't stop loving everything; I can't help but just keep following his possessive rule without caring what he might do to me.

Finally, he was standing right in front of me. ‘What did you think you were hiding? Your money’ he smirked, his eyes went through the cleavage of my breast.

‘Hmm.’

‘No need to hide that from me. I have something better to offer you, to keep the money with you as yours. You must do something for me,’ he said for the very first time. He was not going to take my money. Feeling excited by this offer.

‘What's that?’ I asked him.

"I need you to do something, and that is a one-night stand with the well-known billionaire's son," he said to me. I furrowed my eyebrows.

He then gave a sarcastic laugh. ‘Everyone wants you; you are just too pretty,’ he laughed, lifting up my chin. Tears were forming in the corner of my eyes.

‘Tobias, I can't,’ I shook my head profusely. ‘You have to, and that's my command. Do you know how much he has paid to have  you, princess, huh?’

‘Do it for me if you love me, and I promise to help your brother financially till he graduates, and you will forever be mine,’ he placed a kiss on my forehead before moving away towards his table.

‘Here you go,’ he dragged out a red explosive cloth for me. ‘Here, have it,’ he smirked.

‘Be a good girl for a day and come back home for me,’ he smiled. ‘Meet the man in room 406, good luck,’ winking at me before walking. I was absolutely dumbfounded by everything that was going on, and the shock of my life. I have to follow his rules; I can't just stop myself. I sighed, boiling with hatred for the man I was going to sleep with.
