Serenity stood stiff and felt the urge to run out the door, but she was paralyzed from shock. A tap on the shoulder awoke her body, snapping her frozen mind back to reality.
"Move over!" Demanded a female voice. She didn't pay attention to who had said it; her eyes were still gazing at Seto, who was slouching uneasily on the couch now. Abruptly, Serenity covered her breasts with one arm. Embarrassed, she quickly went out of the room. She walked aimlessly across the club to take haven in the make-up room.
"Blossom?" She heard her boss calling out to her over the loud music, but ignored it till she felt his hand on her bare shoulder.
She turned to look at him, her eyes meeting his dark brown ones. "Yes?"
"You're supposed to be in there!" He said pointing to the VIP area.
"He's in there!"
"I know the man that is in there, everyone knows the man in there. It's Seto Kaiba. He comes here discretely entering from the back to avoid the press." He stated.
"I can't go back in there." She pleaded.
"No. You need to get back in there." He insisted. "I need a new face in there."
"I can't!" She refused and took a large step back, nearly tripping in her 9-inch heels. She continued to the make-up room and slammed the door behind her. Three other girls looked up and their gaze followed Serenity till she took a seat in front of a mirror trying to gather herself together. Suddenly, the door flung open and in walked her boss.
"Hey!" Shouted a redhead girl with porcelain skin as she quickly threw on a pink satin robe. "You're not allowed in here!"
"Oh, please, Diamond! It's not like I've never seen any one of you naked before. What the hell am I violating, sexual harassment? It's a goddamn strip club!" Then his eyes fell upon the stripper with the horrible spray on tan, she was back in the room still trying to fix it. "What the hell happened to you, Candy? You look like an anorexic orange or a tangerine!" He stated.
"It's not looking any better?" She asked adding even more powder.
"Stop it!" He demanded. "You're making yourself look blotchy now!" Then walked passed her till he reached Serenity, "Blossom, you're going to be in that VIP room ASAP. I'm giving you five more minutes." He warned, before he left the room he turned facing Serenity to deliver a threat. "Or I will not hesitate to fire you!"
An ocean of stress consumed Serenity, now she knew that she was left with no choice but to face Kaiba. "Five minutes!" She heard him shout again.
There were many gorgeous ladies at the club, different reasons united them there, but they were all there to do the same thing and that was to make money. Some girls vowed to themselves that they were only going to work there temporary; saving enough money to pay for college was a common reason. However, a lot grew comfortable with the money and winded up working there for years. Many even dropped out of college. Serenity prayed that she would be different. There was no way she was going to let herself dwell in such a sinful occupation for so long. Her goal was to save just enough money and that decision was firm.
She never had to worry about bumping into her brother since she knew for a fact that he was not the type of man who would objectify women. He treated women with respect. The thought of having to be topless in front of Kaiba overwhelmed her. The feeling was awkward.
Unfortunately, it had to be done or else her damn boss would fire her. Being fired from a strip club would be even more embarrassing. She would fall behind on rent once again and never save enough money for her surgery. Serenity massaged her head for a little bit, the headache seemed to worsen every passing day. She has no clue of how much time she had, but she knew that she had to do whatever it took and she had to do it fast.
Gathering back her strength and sanity, she made her way back into the VIP area once more. After pushing the door open, she saw Sapphire, a young sexy brunette stripper. She wore a cheeky blue panty and was grinding on Kaiba's lap. Facing him, she dug his face into her naked large breasts and he awarded her with a couple of hundred dollar bills. His attention focused on Serenity, a dark smirk fell upon his face.
'What could he be smirking about?' She wondered.
A blonde topless girl with long wavy hair walked over and filled his cup with more alcohol. She had perfect skin, but looked plastic all around, with fake breast implants, lip injections, and a possible butt lift. She looked almost like a Barbie, and not in a good way. They figured the drunker he got the more generous he became. "Remy Martin, VSOP. The finest cognac here." She winked as she poured.
"Tell your boss I told him to stop being so cheap and upgrade to Remy Martin Black Pearl." He said.
"That's $55,000 a bottle!" The blonde exclaimed.
"That's lunch money to me." He boosted as he shot her a grin.
It was clear that he had not been drinking a lot, alcohol had not possessed him yet and he was nowhere near being drunk. Perhaps a few more drinks would do the trick.
The VIP room was set at a good temperature; not too cold and not too hot, but goose bumps took over Serenity's body and chills ran down her spine.
"I want you to give me a lap dance." He shamelessly ordered as he pointed at Serenity.
Embarrassed, Serenity obeyed and walked over to him. He pulled her down to sit on his lap. "Serenity Wheeler." He whispered against her ears. She felt blood rushing to her face again. "Show me what you got!" He screamed and all the strippers in the room began to cheer, egging Serenity on. Some of them had been drinking as well.
"Yeah! Blossom!" She heard them shout.
A new track of music began and the lighting in the room started to dim. The music had a slow beat to it, a very seductive tune.
Serenity began to work her magic. Placing both of her hands on each of his thighs, she leaned closer till her breasts were just inches away from his face.
A small smile began to appear on him. He didn't know how she ended up at a strip joint and was taken aback by it. He started to take pleasure in wondering how Joey would react once he found out about this because Kaiba doubted that Joey was aware of all this.
Serenity spun around to give him a good view of her ass as she bounced her small booty up and down. Finally, Kaiba had lost it and burst out with laughter. It made him feel fantastic to be able to objectify a Wheeler. He never fancied them and found Joey to be highly annoying. Now he was here treating Joey's sister like a doormat and loving every second of it.
She ignored his laughter and continued on grinding on him. At the moment, he didn't find the lap dance to be erotic; he found it to be hilarious because it was coming from a Wheeler. Instead of tipping her with hundred dollar bills like he did for the other strippers, Kaiba stuffed the side of Serenity's thong with one dollar bills and enjoyed the look of disappointment on her face.
Suddenly, she turned around and faced him, her hands placed gently on his thighs. Her eyes met his and he gazed into her innocent eyes. His smile vanished. Even though the music was still playing and drunken girls were cheering, Kaiba's world became silent. Everything was quiet and the people around him became a blur. It was just him and Serenity. Lust dominated him as she sat on his lap facing him, with one legs on each of his side. He heard and felt her breath on his neck, as she moved her hips back and forth, practically dry humping him, she felt a bulge in his pants and it grew larger each time she moved back and forth. Beads of sweat began to form on Kaiba's forehead. Now he was developing an urge to take her away from here. Away from this hell hole. Serenity stood up and was finished with her lap dance. She left the room in a hurry.
"Wait!" She heard him shout for her. "Wait!" He shouted again. "Stop!" Girls began to throw themselves at Kaiba. There was a crowd of strippers in front of him which made it difficult for him to run after her. She disappeared and left Kaiba behind with a group of money hungry strippers, blushing the entire way back.
