2022-11-14 16:32:54"Juneee!!!" June's sister, Layla screamed as she ran to hug her as her big sister, as she appeared in the hallway where their mum's room was situated in the hospital. It had been over a week since the last time June had paid a visit to the hospital and seen her little sister. Their mum had been sick for quite awhile but June couldn't afford to just sit with them at the hospital, the bills weren't going to pay themselves.
"I need to speak to Doctor Rachel first, okay?" Layla nodded and June gave her a kiss on her forehead and told her to go back to their mum. The doctor was glad to see June in good condition but her face told June there wasn't much good news to share.
With Layla satisfied and her mum finally asleep after crying, June kissed them both goodbye, promised to come see them more often and left the hospital to go for her first job.
The convenience store was quiet as June walked into it that morning. She straightened the front of the dress she had worn from the hotel as she walked to the back to get changed. She glanced in the mirror and noticed how swollen her eyes were but it wasn't time to dwell on her appearance. She hadn't been doing that unless it was at night and even then, she always wore a mask.
Unlike the strip club where she had to keep her identity hidden, June went about her daily life without any mask so it was quite tasking to keep her swollen eyes hidden from the public view. Doctor Rachel had revealed to her the depth of her mum's illness and the surgery that she needed to undergo to ensure she didn't die
"Helloo, excuse me, I said I'd like to buy some base balls, where can I find them?" June shook her head as she tried to concentrate on the woman that was already visibly upset.
"I'm sorry ma'am, how may I help you?" The woman's frown deepened as she repeated her request for the third time. June was already mentally scolding herself, why had she drifted off all of a sudden?
"I..said, I would like to be directed to where I can find baseballs" June apologized again as she pointed towards the third aisle and watched as the woman moved towards it after mumbling a stiff "thank you"
June gave herself a mental shake as she tried to not let her mind wander. Yes, she had lot of stuff going on but she had to concentrate on her job if she was going to get a chance to settle her mum's hospital bills.
"Thank you" the woman murmured again as she paid and left. The rest of the day went in a blur and before long, it was 3pm, time for June's next job. She gave Sharon, her coworker a slight hug as she hurriedly changed and almost ran out the door.
Unlike the convenience store, the Cafe didn't condone even a minute lateness and June knew she needed the job and the money that came with it. Her two jobs combined didn't give her as much as she got from the strip club but it was an opportunity for her to earn a honest living and she wasn't about to waste it.
"Four cups of iced coffee, two slices of cake and two doughnuts, please" a brunette smiled up at June as she took her order. The girl had walked into the Cafe with three of herfriends and June suspected they were college students. It was quite obvious though, they had those big books and two of them were slaving away at their laptop and June couldn't help the feeling of longing that filled her body.
"Ma'am, you're spilling the coffee" the girl's voice brought June back to the present and she realized she was actually spilling the coffee, the cup was full already.
"I'm so sorry" June apologized as she struggled to clean up the mess with toilet papers. The girl smiled and took the cups that were full from the counter. She waited patiently for June to sort herself out and when she was done, the girl smiled at her as she collected the items she had ordered.
"I wish every customer was like that girl from earlier, you know"June's coworker said as June prepared to end her shift. The girl had been heaven sent and June was grateful but She had a whole load of things on her mind and the most prominent one was the scolding that awaited her back at the strip club.
As June came out of the Cafe she decided it would be best to phone Anita and make enquiries about the club and Stephen's mood. She had to make a pitstop at the hospital which automatically meant she was going to be performing at the club that night.
June knew whatever punishment she was going to be getting for her actions, would be determined by Stephen's mood but she was also aware she was walking on thin ice. She had missed days before but this time around, it was entirely different.
Anita answered on the third ring, "Hey girl, it's way past our time. Why aren't you here yet?" I took a deep breath as I hailed a taxi in front of the hospital.
"I had to deal with important stuff. Is Stephen mad?" Anita laughed and I knew instantly that I was in trouble.
"Upset would be flattering, the man is pissed, June. Get here as fast as you can" Anita said and June heard her talking to someone before the line went dead. Shit."Here" June told the taxi driver as he pulled up in front of the bar. It wasn't yet 10 but June could see the men leaving the club, that wasn't a good sign at all. She knew most of them came to see her performance but she had been absent. Stephen was definitely going to make her pay for it. Shit.

Michael couldn't recall how many times Drake had complained about how much he was huddling himself up in the office, bent over different files and not having a social life that didn't include boring contract signings and businessmen conferences. "I have the perfect place for you to go to ease up all this tension you've been carrying on your broad shoulders" Drake told him that afternoon as he walked into the office with the remaining files from the project. Michael didn't hesitate to air out his views, "If it's a party, I'm not interested" The look on Drake's face afterwards should have warned him but Michael knew he really needed a break so he complied anyways and found himself at Emmys that night. Unlike himself, Drake was a regular at Emmys and Michael didn't understand the pleasure anyone was getting from watching half naked women dance on a pole until the redhead with the mask climbed her podium. It was like a spell was cast, he couldn't take his eyes off her as she twir

"I can't believe I missed my daughter's birthday party for this half assed show" Two men were walking out of the club, visibly upset about the whole event. Emmys was a place you went to and got instantly happy but tonight was different and June knew she was in for it. Stephen sat at his desk with one of the biggest frowns June had ever seen in her two years of working at the strip club and she knew she wasn't going to get out of this easily. "Look who decided to show up" Stephen said as soon as June walked into his office. The frown dissolved into a smile but June knew it didn't meet his eyes. "I can explain, Stephen. Something came up, I couldn't..." Stephen cut her off before she could complete whatever she had to say. "Yes, you're going to have to explain yourself June Skylar!" Stephen yelled but relaxed when he saw fear forming in June eyes. You'd think years of working at a strip club would make her somehow strong enough to deal with men that yelled at her. "I..

"Hello, June Skylar" Michael called out to the stripper as she walked into the parking lot. He took a deep breath as he looked at the woman that had given herself a place in his mind without his consent. The first thing he noticed was how bright her eyes were, her hair color had been a marvel to him since he first time he saw her but it looked surreal as he took a good look at her. Michael concluded in his head, June Skylar was an extremely beautiful woman. After Anita had given him the name of the masked redhead stripper, he had emailed it to his assistant to run a background check on her and it didn't take 20 minutes for the results to come back in. Michael had discovered more than he had initially intended on. June Skylar, 25 years old, first an oldest child of Mrs Glory Skylar a widowed mother of two. She had lost her dad in her early teens and her mum had been diagnosed with Cancer not long after. She had dropped out of college and started running over two jobs to be a

"I didn't say black coffee, Miss. I said I wanted a macchiato" June apologized for the third time that moment as she started making another cup of coffee for the man that was already losing his patience. "You should be more focused on your work, Miss" the man advised as he collected his now correct order and walked out of the Cafe. It wasn't even 9 yet but June had mixed up over four orders and she still couldn't get her brain to correspond with her mind. The encounter with the strange billionaire the previous night had left her with tears rolling down her cheeks as she hailed a taxi without looking back if he had followed her or not. She couldn't possibly believe he had approached her with a more insane offer than the first one. A lot had happened in two days and it was overwhelming for her but the list kept on going up and up. After falling into an exhausted sleep after crying for hours after she got back home from the club, June had woken up to her sister still in bed wi

The sound of Michael's voice wasn't something June could easily forget after hearing it many times. It irritated her to the bones and seeing him also irritated her, the man just had a way of making her blood boil and rise. She wasn't going to let him get in the way of what she planned to do that day so she decided to walk away and act like she just didn't hear him call for her. No matter what she was going to get her job back. "June" Michael called and walked towards her from the other end of the parking lot. June stopped in her tracks and then turned to face his annoyingly handsome face. "How may I help you, sir?" June's voice came out more irritated than she planned. She wasn't in the mood for any of his nonsense this night. His silence aggravated her"I would be on my way if you have nothing to say then," June said before walking away from him. Michael stopped her from going any further by holding her hand. She dragged her hand from him with a frown"Don't tell me you are going

The whole day how to meet up with Michael kept crossing June's mind. She wanted to speak with him but she didn't know how to get to him because she didn't collect his number and she didn't give him the chance to speak with her. Since she didn't succeed in getting her job back, he was the only solution to her problems now even though she hates to admit it. She took her last order "I will be going to the back for my lunch break, I will hand it over to you" June said and left the post for her friend. "Of course go ahead" She went into the kitchen before she rummaged through her bag searching for a chew gum while she stumbled across a business card with a number on it and without thinking twice because she couldn't afford to think.She called the number and waited for the person to pick up the phone. After the third ring, the person finally picked up "Hello" June dropped the phone on the ground in shock at the voice she just heard. It was the man she had slapped angrily few days ago,

June agreed to his deal and it was only because she had to save her mother. She would have never agreed to do something as crazy as what he offered if it wasn't for her mother. June made her way into the restaurant that she and Michael had agreed to meet the day before when she spoke to him on the phone. They agreed to meet at a certain time and she was already late but she couldn't help it since she had to take the bus to the restaurant. Throughout yesterday she had thought about it through and then she read the contract again trying to find anything that would show her why it was a bad idea but she couldn't find anything. The contract was all normal and she couldn't say he made a mistake. So she had come up with terms that she expected him to follow also. She would be his sex slave and she knew that it involved having sex till he was contented and doing things to please him. It was like being his harlot. She was going to accept his terms today when they signed the contract so sh

Now it was official, after last night's sex adventure she was officially Michael Stahom's sex slave and he could call her out for sex anytime and anywhere he wanted to. It was all part of the contract and she had signed it. They woke up in each other's arms and it felt so weird for June but now she wasn't scared about him seeing her face and neither did she run away. She lay down beside him till he woke up. They freshened up and ended up having sex inside the bathroom before they left the hotel after Michael paid for it. He offered to take her to the hospital to see her mother and also to sign the papers for the surgery so they could begin the second surgery on her mother. Things were moving so fast for June that she almost couldn't believe what was happening."This feels like a dream June," Her sister said as the doctors swarmed inside the room to take her mother out. "I know right, I wouldn't believe it if I was told that mum would get someone who would pay her bills," June said t

Michael was with Frank when he got the call from his brothers, Frank tried to calm him down and tell him that he can figure a way out but Michael wasn't ready to listen to him. Immediately Michael called his lawyer. "Mr Stahom, I have prepared the papers for the lawsuit, I will be ready when you are ready" He said "That's not the issue, I need you to draft up all the documents of the entire company in thirty minutes and then send it to me, I will sign it" Michael said "What do you mean by that Mr Stahom, what do you need the entire papers of the company for?" The lawyer asked "I don't have the time to answer your questions so please just do as I say and let me have it. I will be with you in an hour to sign them" Michael said and hung up on him.

The girls got ready for school the next day and Michael got down the stairs, they didn't know that he was around the day before. "Daddy" Angel yelled and she got down and ran to hug him, Michael hugged her back "Darling, how are you doing?" Michael asked "I'm fine daddy, when did you come home?" Angel asked"I arrived last night baby and you were sleeping then," Michael said and she nodded. "Mr. Stahom, how was your trip?" Layla asked "It was fine Layla, I did what I wanted to do thanks for asking. I hope you girls didn't disturb June too much while I was away?" Michael asked "Not at all, I made Angel behave too," Layla said and Michael grinned. "Daddy we baked, we watched movies, had ice creams, and slept with June in your bedroom every night, I love it but I just missed you so much daddy," Angel said "I know baby and I missed you so much, that's why I came back to see you. but you have to go to school now so I will see you when you get back" Michael said and she nodded"Okay,

Michael got into his hotel room after leaving the meeting and he laid down on his bed feeling extra tired from the days work, he spent the whole day talking to so many men because of the new business. He hadn't told anyone that he was opening up another branch, he didn't even tell June yet because he wanted it to be a surprise. But when he got home, since this trip was successful and the business would soon be set up, he would bring it up and tell her all about it. He had spoken to Angel because June said she missed him and he missed her a lot too, after tonight, he planned on taking the first flight home to surprise them. He was looking forward to their reactions when he would get home. He removed his next tie and stared at the ceiling when his phone began to ring again. It was June, he thought as he stared at the screen, he smiled to himself and picked up the phone ready to tease her. "I thought you didn't miss me, then why are you calling me June?" Michael asked with a smirk "Mi

June was in the kitchen making dinner while her sister and Angel are playing in the living room. She put the food in the oven when Angel ran into the kitchen and then walked her to her with a frown. "June" She called in a silent voice and it was at that moment that June knew that the little girl was feeling down. "What's wrong Angel, aren't you playing with Layla anymore? Or are you hungry because I'm making dessert right now and dinner is almost done" June said and she nodded in refusal? "Where is daddy June, when is he going to come back?" Angel asked with a frown. June dropped the spoon she was holding and then took off the apron around her waist and hugged Angel. "Do you miss your daddy?" June asked and Angel nodded her head in agreement. "I'm sorry honey, it's been days since you saw him. Michael must also miss you, he was in a meeting when I called him earlier this morning" June said "Can I call daddy now, I want to talk to him June, I miss him?" Angel said and June smiled

Michael bent down, his lips against her cheek, brushing it lightly, and still, that light touch sent shivers through her nerves, shivers that made her whole body tremble. He brushed his mouth against the hollow of her temple and then his lips were on hers again. June stood on her toes and reached up as she pulled him down to her, He kissed her gently, carefully, but it wasn’t the gentleness she wanted, not now, not after all this time, and she knotted her fists in his shirt, pulling him harder against her body. He groaned softly, low in his throat, and then his arms circled her waist, gathering her against him, still kissing. His lips tasted like honey. They stopped to catch their breath.He smashed his lips on hers again. she tasted so sweet and he could smell her perfume from how close they were. Slowly, he lifted her from the ground and carried her to the counter so she would sit before he spread her legs open. "Wait in the kitchen?" she asked with her eyes open wide. "I don't

Michael had finally calmed down from his paranoia so the girls are allowed back to school after two weeks, He found out about a last-minute trip to New Orleans so he was going to leave with his secretary. He couldn't ask June to go with him because he knew that she had to watch the kids. "I would have asked you to go with me but I know you wouldn't agree to go with me because of the kids," Michael said as he tossed his clothes on the bed. "I asked you to fold them" June complained and then folded them for him before she placed them into his box neatly. "I have you to do it for me," He said and she rolled her eyes at him. "I know, I want to follow you too, get time to ourselves, time away from the girls but I can't leave them at the same time because of how things are now, the cops haven't caught the other men who tried to kidnap Layla or the actual person who gave the orders so we have to be careful," June said and he nodded. "I know that baby, and if it weren't for the fact that

That evening, Michael watched as June baked a cake with her sister and Angel in the kitchen. "Stop standing there, at least make yourself useful even if you can't bake Michael," June said and he frowned. "I'm fine with just watching you bake for the kids from this place June so ignore me and keep doing what you are doing," Michael said "I'm done, I just have to put the slices in a plate for the kids and then I will be with you," June said and Michael nodded. When Angel saw that June had finished baking, Layla was washing the pans in the sink while June cut the cake into big slices, Angel rushed over to where her dad was standing and then beckoned for him to bend down."You want to tell daddy something?" Michael asked and she nodded. He bent down and then she grabbed his hair "Daddy, I just want to tell you that June is a great mummy to me" Angel whispered in his ear and Michael beamed with joy. He was overwhelmed with so many emotions at that moment and was glad that Angel thinks

For the next two days, Michael refused to let the kids go into the compound to play because he was scared that anything would happen to them. They went to work with the bodyguards, some guarded the house and the kids followed two other with Shawn as the driver since he was someone Michael trusted them with. He was worried that anyone might try to kidnap someone again, it might not be Layla this time but it might be Angel or even June and he couldn't take any risks, they were all important to him and they each had the roles to play in his life.Michael didn't go to work today, he wanted to work from home because he had some calls to answer and he wanted to do it at his study, the kids were currently back from school and were eating while June was upstairs in the bedroom doing her leftover work from the office.

Michael's phone began to ring again and they ignored the call thinking it was the head of the IRS department that might be calling. But June couldn't focus on any other thing the way the phone was ringing so she picked up the call for Michael. "Good afternoon, Mr. Stahom isn't in a position to receive a call now, you can leave me a message to give to him or call him again in the next one hour," June said politely "I'm sorry ma'am but it's important, can you tell him that the chief of police would like to speak to him, concerning the case with the attempted kidnap from yesterday?" The man said and as June heard him mention attempted kidnap, her heart began to race and immediately she understood that it had to do with Layla. "Hello, are you still there ma'am?" The man asked disturbing her thoughts and she remembered she was on a call before. "I will tell him, please hold on," June said and then she placed the call on hold before turning to Michael."Michael" June called and he looke
