"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.. couldn't come in early cause of my..mu..m" June stuttered but Stephen didn't look moved one bit.
"Your mum, right" Stephen replied sarcastically, "I gave you a job here cause of your mum. I've condoned most of your misgivings because of your MUM!" June flinched again
"But you've made a fool out of my kindness and good heart and I am tired, June Skylar" June could feel tears welling up in her eyes but she quickly blinked them away. If she was going to have a shot at making Stephen reconsider whatever he planned to do to her, she had to show him she was strong, he hated weak people.
"I'm so sorry, Stephen, I really am. I would have shown up early tonight but I had to stop by the hospital, it was an emergency and I had no control over it"
"That I can understand but what I get at all is why you brought a total stranger to my club to be asking questions about you"
"Asking questions about me?"
"Don't play dumb, June. You know I have a strict policy against that type of shit. Whatever business you have with whoever approaches you after your perform doesn't have anything to do with the club but no one should come snooping around. You know all this, June"
"Yes, ye..ss, I kn..ow but I honestly have no idea what you're talking about, Stephen"
"It doesn't matter anymore, I can't keep over looking your shortcomings, June Skylar. I'd appreciate it if you go to the back, pack your things and leave my club. You're fired"
There were over a thousand things on June's mind as she walked to the dressing room to take her things just as Stephen had said. Her not so normal life had been turned upside down with the arrival of the stranger and even if he had helped her in a huge way with the 100 thousand dollars cheque, she stronger felt her dismissal had been caused by him.
"June, where have you been?! Is your mum alright?!" Anita ran to hug her as she walked into the room. It was way past their usual performance time so it was just the both of them in the room.
"I've been at the hospital, mostly but my mum is fine. Or she would be fine rather" June heaved a huge sigh and sat on the chair next to the vanity. Her mum needed to be fine, she had gone through so much to ensure that.
Anita walked up to her and wrapped her in another hug, "I'm so sorry, June. How did it go with Stephen?"
"He fired me" June blurted out and Anita could help the look of surprise that masked her face. "It doesn't matter though, you know what pleading with Stephen would lead to" Anita knew how many times Stephen had made advances at June and she going to plead with him to allow her keep her job would just be disturbing the hornet's nest.
June packed the little things she had, looked around one last time with tears welling up in her eyes. Stephen may have been a womanizer and a drunk but he had given her a place to work when she was still struggling and she was very grateful to him. But it seemed her chapter with Emmys had come to a close and she had to leave after all.
Anita stood at the door as June hauled her little luggage towards the exit of the strip club, she was too emotional but she was determined to not let it show. The strip club paid more than the Cafe and the convenience store combined and she had just lost that opportunity.
"Stephen said something about someone coming to ask for me. Is that true?" June turned to Anita who nodded in affirmation.
"Someone did come to look for you yesterday and earlier tonight also" June had only one person in mind but why would he have been looking around for her?
"Did he tell you his name or anything at all?" June asked in desperation. Whoever had come to look for her at the club, had just cost her her most needed job.
"Michael Stahom" Anita answered,
"Michael Stahom?" The name rang a bell, it was definitely a name June had heard before. June was still trying to put a face to the name when Stephen called out for Anita and her friend gave her a hug, promised to keep in touch and almost ran back into the club. Stephen was a strict boss and June didn't want to be the reason her friend ends up losing her job.
Michael Stahom. The name most definitely rang a bell but June decided to not dwell on it. She had to start looking for another job to add to the two she had already. The hospital bills had been increased and her mum was due for surgery, she couldn't just sit around and mop.
"Hello, June Skylar" With a very bright smile plastered on his face, June finally placed a face to the name cause he was standing right in front of her.
"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 got into the office and sat down on the armchair, his other hand held a cup of black coffee and he used his free hand to undo his tie before tossing it on the table. He took a sip of the coffee and let out a sigh, just then the door to his office opened revealing his secretary. Michael watched her every move as she strolled down to his desk with a phone in her hands. "Did you forget to knock because I didn't hear you knock?" Michael said in anger "I'm sorry sir, it won't happen again. I was trying to connect to your phone in the office but it wasn't going through for a reason so I had to come and see you by myself" She said "What is it, I don't have all day to listen to you," Michael said and he nodded before handing him the cell phone she was holding."Your father Mr. Stahom wants to speak with you urgently sir," She said and Michael groaned. What did the old man want now? Anytime he called it was always one trouble or the other. Michael checked the phone and saw that she
Benjamin punched Michael in the face and then Michael had thrown a punch back at his brother and then the two men began to fight. "Enough!! I would no longer be disrespected anymore by the two of you" "Benjamin! Michael!!" At the sound of his name, Michael let the collar of Benjamin's shirt go and then he spat blood out of his mouth. "This is why meeting with you guys is always a mistake. you always find a way to make me so uncomfortable and then it ends with you two fighting every time" James said before getting up from his chair. "I'm sorry father but I will take my leave now," James said and then gave the three of them a final look before leaving the room. Michael stared into Benjamin's face in anger at himself that he fell for his stupid act once again."I have a woman in mind who will become a suitable mother for Angel so pick up the next time I call you Michael," Mr. Stahom said and Michael nodded"That won't be necessary father because I already have someone who takes care o
