A Game
She became uncomfortable and her heart pounded even more. How could he ask her about touching her?
To lessen her tension, she drank the wine that Nicholas gave her and emptied the glass.
"I–I'm sorry to disappoint you, but I'm different from the other girls."
"How are you different? They work here and so are you. The only difference is that you're a newcomer."
His words felt like an insult, but Nicholas was right. She came here to work as a waitress, but eventually, she would have to sell her body to get more money.
She took a deep breath and stared straight into Nicholas' eyes.
"Mr.Hudson, you're right. I am no different from the other girls here. I can say that I am just here as a waitress for now, but it will change. And I am aware of that. But that doesn't give you the right to casually harass me. If other women will do everything to sleep with you, then again, I'm sorry. I'm not like them. Even if I have nothing, I will not sleep with you."
There she said it. She knew she was talking nonsense. He's Nicholas Hudson for fuck's sake. Only a fool would reject someone like him. But she hated him. She hated his overconfidence and ego, so she wanted him to lose them.
Harass her? Was that considered harassment? She's working in a club and not just any club, it's Club Montefalco. He thought inwardly.
Nicholas chuckled. "You really are interesting. But I'm not someone who easily gives up."
"Why? I have nothing to offer. You wouldn't gain anything from me."
Nicholas smirked. "Let's just say, I love playing this kind of game. Losing to someone so low, I won't accept that. So let's have a competition."
She frowned. "What are you a kid?"
"Are you afraid that you will lose?"
Nicholas Hudson was getting on her nerves. He's a dangerous and a powerful man so he would never stop bothering her.
"Fine. If I win, you will leave me alone."
Nicholas nodded. "Okay. But if you lose, I will do anything I want with you even without permission." He winked.
Her heart fluttered. Why the hell did he look more attractive even though she knew he's an asshole? She thought inwardly.
"So what kind of game do you want to play?"
"Simple. Just do your job."
She was confused. "You mean work as a waitress?"
Nicholas nodded. "Yes. You'll be my personal waitress whenever I come here. Get my orders and watch those girls pleasure me. If you avert your eyes even once, you lose."
Was this guy really that crazy? Watch him and those girls?
"Are you losing your confidence?" Nicholas emptied the wine from the glass.
What the hell was she thinking? Did she really have to go along with his childish games? She thought.
She closed her eyes and took a deep sigh.
"Oh fuck!" She murmured. "Fine. For how long will I have to do it?"
"A week. Starting today."
"Today? You mean, you–"
Her words were cut off when a girl walked inside the room, and was just wearing a red two-piece lingerie.
Mia saw Nicholas's eyes were fixed on hers. It was making her uncomfortable but she agreed with his little game, so she had no choice but to stare back at him.
She wanted to run outside when the girl kneeled in front of Nicholas. Without a word, she unzipped her pants and took his dick out.
'Shit! T–That's huge.' Her eyes widened when his dick got hard and the girl started sucking it. Nicholas was casually sitting on the couch staring at her.
She wondered what was on his mind while his dick was being sucked with another girl and at the same time, staring at her.
"I'm imagining it's you." He said.
"W–What the fuck?" Her eyes widened.
The blow job lasted for an hour. She couldn't remember how many times she tried not to run away. All she could think about was not to lose with Nicholas so she was able to hold it in.
After he left, she rushed to the bathroom and puked. She didn't realize she was also crying because she felt so humiliated that her dignity as a woman was crushed.
"You can do this Mia. Six more days and it'll be over."
She heard a few knocks and it was Ady.
"You okay?"
She nodded, but quickly ran inside again to puke. Ady crossed her arms as she watched her.
"Did you know I lost my virginity with my own father? Then the next day, with my brother."
She was shocked, of course. But she was unsure why Ady suddenly told her about it.
"I'm saying that what you experienced isn't the worst. At least you were just forced to watch suck a man's dick. After I was raped by my father and brother, my mom sold me here. My first customer was an old fat guy. He was obsessed with doing S&M. I was hospitalized for three days after that."
"Ady, I–I'm sor–"
"Oh no! Don't pity me. I hate it. Mama gave me an option, but I chose to stay and got that old man as my first client. It was my decision so I never blamed anyone. Lia, all the girls here have different stories. You're not the only one who has problems. I guess what I'm saying is, if you don't have the guts, just leave this place before it's too late. But if you decide to stay, it's all on you. Don't make a fuss as if you're a victim."
She was alone in her room, thinking about the things Ady said. Mama gave her time to think about the contract, but she decided to sign it without considering the consequences. She shouldn't blame anyone, even Nicholas because it was her choice.
She needed a place to stay and had to work. Club Montefalco offered her a room and meals for free. It wasn't a decent job, but the benefits and pay were enough for her to save money.
She had to save money as fast as she could. If no one would buy her freedom, then she would. Then she would enroll again to another university to finish her studies and be a doctor.
