At the age of fourteen, Nathania Sarmiento started working as a striptease performer. She was a strip dancer but never a prostitute who perform s*xual activity for money. Nathania does not have a choice but to strip in front of men two times in a week to have money and feed her siblings. Her parents are in jail so she needs to support her siblings financially. One night, she met this billionaire named Warren Anderson. A cold-hearted, arrogant investor and businessperson. The latter paid her manager with a large amount of money in exchange of her virginity but she refused giving it to him. She left him in the room drooling over her. Next thing she knew? The strip club she was working for seven years was forcibly closed with unknown reason. Her manager then advised her to go to Anderson's company and try her luck to apply for work. Therefore, she left with no choice but to go there. The billionaire accepted her immediately but in one condition. She'll live with him.

"Are you ready?" My co -worker Elise asked jokingly before leaving the dressing room. I just stared at her because honestly, I'm annoyed right now. Supposedly, today is my day off but early in the morning Manager Nora called me to tell me to go on duty tonight because there will be a very important customer coming.
Why me?! There are many of us working here but they still need to disturb me!
After I put on my high heels, I stood up and looked in the mirror. Manager Nora entered the dressing room and she smiled at me. I just frowned at her.
"Don't feel bad anymore." She said softly before hugging me from behind. We are now both facing the mirror. "I heard that he's an investor and a billionaire .. Who knows? maybe he'll like you." I frowned even more as she laughed.
Manager Nora supports me here in the City and in the work we do. She did everything for me so that I could send something to my siblings in the province.
"But it's my day off today!" I said even though I knew I could do nothing. I'm already dressed and in a few minutes, I will be going out there and dance like the usual.
"All right, let's triple your talent fee tonight!" I smiled broadly and faced her while hugging her tightly. Well, I think it's worth it?
She broke away from my hug and said .. "But what if he wants to take you out?" I was stunned. "Are you still scared? You're already twenty-one." I just bent down my head and played with my fingers. "You'll still have more money to take home then, Tanya." I sighed and looked up at her. "I'm not forcing you, but I just want you to be practical. Think about where you can earn more and where you can save more."
"But Manager ..."
"Like I said, I'm not forcing you." She smiled at me and pat my shoulder. "Fix yourself, I'll just call you when it's okay outside." I hugged her and waited for her to go out the room before I sat down and put on some make up.
This is the difficulty of making money. I've been here for seven years but I still don't have enough savings for me to be able to go home and live with my siblings. I can't go home because I won't get anything there.
"Tanya." One of the waiters entered the dressing room. "They're already calling you outside." I nodded at him before putting on the red robe. I sighed before going out of the room.
I'm Nathania Sarmiento, I'm a stripper. And my job includes undressing in front of men to satisfy their eyes and fantasies. This kind of work should not be done but what can I do? I was unable to study because both of my parents were imprisoned and I was left with the responsibility of taking care of my siblings. I stood as their mom and dad for seven years. I started entering this job at the age of fourteen. And the salary for stripping twice a week is also a big help so that I can feed my three siblings in the province.
"Let's welcome, Star of the Night, Tanya!" Their loud applause and screams greeted me as I stepped out onto the small stage where I always danced.
'I feel so unsure
As I take your hand and lead you to the dance floor'
As I slowly took off the red robe I was wearing, the screams from the men who seemed to be very hungry for flesh grew louder.
Wearing the red two-piece swimsuit, I began to grind down and follow the rhythm of the music.
I closed my eyes as I began to remove my top. I always do that, because I'm still shy. I'm ashamed of myself. And I am ashamed for my parents. But I can't do anything, it's just the easiest way to make money for people like me.
'As the music dies, something in your eyes
Calls to mind a silver screen
And all its sad good-byes'
When I removed it, I just let it fall to the floor. I continued to dance again, this time I clung to the pole where I was grinding it and thought that someone was dancing with me. As I used to do and the Manager also said, I just felt the song and I just followed the rhythm. They don't care if you dance ugly, the important thing is that your body is beautiful and attractive.
Manager Nora said, the businessmen who come here are not unaware that I am still a virgin. She said the businessmen knew so they always come back here. They also tried several times to pay me to the Manager but until I said yes, she would not give me— that's the reason I really love Manager.
I began to untie the left part of the special cover I was wearing, there the men in the club started screaming again. And before I could let go of the rest of the shroud I was wearing, I opened my eyes and was suddenly stunned for a moment.
He looked straight at me as sits comfortably on the sofa while holding a goblet. This was the first time I doubted what I was doing. This is the first time I've been embarrassed to dance in front of people-- wearing heels only.
And I don't know why.

CHAPTER 14- JUST ONCENATHANIA's POVI was awakened by the sunlight in my eyes. When my head started hurting, I put a hand on it instead of getting up."Gahd! Why did I agree to have a drink with him?" I massaged my head. I'm now suffering from a severe headache and would like to be relieved of it as soon as possible. My eyesight was also spinning, so I stayed in bed, holding it.As I lay on the bed, I recalled what had happened last night. Warren invited me to a drink, and I accepted; we drank at the counter table, and I'm not sure how we ended up in the living room. We drank more than three bottles of wine. We exchanged questions, and he eventually asked about my parents. I answered the question and... and... I cried?Gosh! Why did I cry?! That's why I don't like drinking alcohol because I'm such a crybaby!Aish!
CHAPTER 13- GETTING TO KNOW EACH OTHERNATHANIA's POVShocks! I'm not sure why I'm feeling this way. Every time I recall what happened last night, my heart continues to pound and my cheeks remains red! I didn't get kissed or anything, but I did get a gaze! I'll never forget his expression!I took a deep breath before entering Warren's office the next morning. I can do it, as if what happened last night didn't happen. That's supposed to be fine with me, but wait— nothing happened last night, right? Why am I feeling this way when we didn't even kiss? It's annoying!"Why are you still here?" My eyes widened as I heard Warren's deep voice behind me. I shut my eyes. What will he think of it? That I'm uncomfortable to be there? Gosh!I cleared my throat before turning to face him, nervously. I gave him a sweet smile, but I'm not sure if it was ob
CHAPTER 12- TEMPTATION NATHANIA's POV When I woke up, Warren was by the pool and having a cup of coffee. He said he feels okay but to be sure, I didn't let him go to work yet. I think he was overworked so he got sick. Plus add the fact that the climate is different this month. "Have you eaten?" I asked.. "Not yet." He answered sparingly. "What do you want? Cereals? Noodles ---" "I didn't let you live here to be a maid, Nathania." I sighed. "I know that, but you've just recovered from your fever so I'll do things for you first. B-besides, this is my way of thanking you." I said the last part weakly. "All right, just call me if you have anything to do." After I said that, I went into the laund
CHAPTER 11 - Thank you NATHANIA's POV "Ugghhh.." I immediately opened my eyes when I heard Warren moaning painfully. When I looked at him, he’s now sitting on the sofa, I stood up and approached him. I didn’t realize I fell asleep on the carpet. Aish, instead of taking care of him, I slept. "D-don't move." I restrained him. He now looks at his left hand wrapped in a gauge roll. "I found you in the kitchen last night..." He kept his gaze on his hand. "You were lying on the floor and then the glass was scattered on the floor, maybe at the same time when the glass broke, you fell so you were injured in the hand and face." When I mentioned his face, he immediately touched it and pain drew on his face, maybe it still hurts. It's just a small wound but I know it's a bit deep. "You really had a high fever last nig
Chapter 10- SickNATHANIA's POV"Next up is The Late Show with Karson Miller, for their segment World's Youngest Billionaires of 2021." He shook his head and I stared at him. I think he rejected twelve or more already! "Ok---""Do you want me to attend that interview?" He asked while looking at the laptop. Why is he asking me?"It's up to you, sir." I said confusingly. "But why do you always reject them? It's a waste of the opportunity for them to work." I’m referring to another businessman he rejected. "And the interviews that you also rejected, it's a waste of exposure. You know you will attract more customers because of your good-looks." I said. It's true, it's a pity he rejected everything. The other companies ther
Chapter 9- First Day NATHANIA's POV It's my first day to work but it seems like I am no longer excited to work. I don't know why I'm like this, it's like I just want to stretch all day but I remember-- I'm just poor so I have to get up and work. I’ll go to work at eight o'clock but at six-thirty, I got up and went down to check what could be cooked but ended up just scratching my forehead remembering that we hadn't even gotten to a grocery store yet. Maybe there's a cafeteria in the building, right? I'll find it later and buy something to eat. I went up again to iron my slacks and blouse. I looked at the heels lined up next to me, what am I going to wear? I can't wear a stiletto because it's too high and they might even think I'm one of Warren's business partners. Maybe I'll just use the mules for simplicity. Warren also bought me bags and most of them were shoulder bags, there were also sling bags. I'm so scratchy, will he deduct it from my salary? After I prepared the things I a
CHAPTER 8- VISIT NATHANIA’s POV The next morning I woke up because of the loud ringing of my cell phone. I hurriedly picked it up and answered. "Hello?!" When I answered, I looked at who the caller was. Unknown number. I got up and sat on the bed. "Who's this?! You're calling at only seven in the morning! Can't you call me to say what you want at ten o'clock?! I'm still sleepy ---" "Nathania." I seemed to lose all drowsiness in my body when I heard his voice. "Come to the office now and wear something decent." After that, he cut the line. What the actual fck. It’s Warren! Oh my gosh, am I going to lose my job already?! I’m so stupid! I got out of bed and took a shower. While taking a bath, what happened last night suddenly came to my mind. When I got up, I immediately inhaled fresh air. Gosh! I don't know how many minutes I've had now but I know it's only been a while. When I opened my eyes my jaw dropped. I-it’s Warren. H-he's wearing swimming trunks only. He is standing on t
Chapter 7- Under The Same Roof (3) NATHANIA's POV Starting earlier I was restless and couldn’t sleep, I-I just slapped Warren Anderson, my boss. Arrgh! B-but.. w-why did he kiss me? What does that mean? Or does that mean anything? Dammmmmn!!! I think I'm going crazy thinking about that, I can also feel my face getting hot feeling so much shame. Wait, why am I the one who's shy when he's the one who kissed me? Aish! I don’t know what to do anymore! It is my first day here at his house-- but then he kissed me right away. What about the next few days? Shit! It can't be! Whatever it takes, I will never give myself to someone like him. I need to be brave because I know he will make a way just to get me. And I will not allow that! hmp! I promised myself that I would give ‘this’ to my husband-- in the future. And I will fulfill that! I took a deep breath and lay down on the bed. What's wrong with my brain and I went down earlier, now this happened. Haaay, how am I going to face him tomorr
CHAPTER 6- Under The Same Roof (2)After I agreed to live in his house, I went up to the bedroom to fix my clothes in the cabinet. While fixing it I glanced at the brown envelope lying on the bed. I approached it and pulled out the money. I was surprised because it was a thousand dollars each. T-the amount of it; this is the very first time to see and touch a huge amount of money. I will send the rest to my siblings so that they can pay for the hospital bill and buy Juno's medicine.I sighed. I hope I've made the right decision because I have no choice but to live and work here. Aish! Lots of dramas! I should be braver because I am the only one here in this decision. And I should be more careful in my next steps because there is no one to guide me here as Manager Nora did before. I should also be wiser in things because I'm living in a different world; very different from my world before.After I arranged all my belongings I took a quick shower. I plan to go down and cook something tha
