The Night embrace

Blue POV

Hey, pretty girl," a middle-aged man in a blue suit catcalled me, slapping my behind with his hands, and I cringed. I knew working here would come with some insults and abuses, but it was just getting too much. I couldn't reply because they were VIP customers, and I didn't want to lose my job. So I ignored them.

"Don't tell me you're shy after acting all coy " one of his friends commented, I felt disgusted and anger engulfing me, but I just continued serving them their drinks without a word ." Answer me when I'm talking to you " the VIP guest yelled, pushing me hard to the floor, " you think you're Soo high and mighty don't you, cause you look pretty ? after all the work you had done on your face " he spat vigorously.

"I can tear you apart right here and there's nothing you can do about it "he played with the hem of my shirt a disgusting smirk plastered across his face "Don't act like you don't sleep with men much older than me for money, it just makes you more filthy than you already are " He licked my ears, and I could feel my eyes sting with hot tears.

"What's going on here?" My manager stepped in, creating a distraction for me to pick myself up and get the hell out of there. What have I ever done wrong? I didn't act coy, nor have I slept with anyone for money, so why all these accusations, my life was already hard enough.

I was tidying my hair and wiping my tears when the manager stepped into the dressing room. "It's okay; I calmed them down. Now all you gotta do is go out there, flash a killer smile, and say you're sorry, No biggie. "They sexually harassed me, and it's not a biggie?".

"I don't think I can do that, sir," I replied, my head hung low, too afraid to see his reaction. What do you mean you can't?" he roared, and I shuddered."I did nothing wrong; why should I be the one to apologize?" I whispered in fear." Does it look like I care if you're wrong or not? It doesn't matter darling."

"Nobody cares about you and those guys are VIPs and regulars at this bar. I can't lose them because of someone as incompetent as you." "So if they want to fuck you or whatever, you have to suck it up, you whore," he shouted.

"The only reason why you're still working here is because of my customers; they like that pretty face and hot body of yours, that's all." He ran his hands through his hair, sighing heavily.

After all the efforts and hard work I had put in doing my best and working all night, it's all because of my body that I'm here. I didn't know whether to be spiteful or grateful. "So go apologize while I'm still nice." He tapped my shoulder before heading out.

Money and power are what ruled the world, and I didn't have any, I couldn't afford to lose my job either, so I took all the insults in and stepped out of the dressing room. I was born pathetic; my opinions didn't matter to these people anyway; there was nothing I could do. I need this job now more than ever before.

"I'm sorry sirs, if I did anything to upset you in any way." I apologized, and they just burst into laughter. "Don't people who are honestly sorry go on their knees or something?" he said after a while, and I got on my knees quietly. "I'll forgive you just this once, only because of that sexy body of yours. Don't think I'll be this lenient with you if this happens again." He licked his lips slowly.

"Now come for daddy's cup." He gestured for me to come closer, and I could do nothing but comply. "That's it, girl; all you gotta do is be obedient, and everything will go easy on you," he added, placing a huge bundle of cash in my hands with a knowing smile, as much as I wanted to throw that money back at his face, I knew I needed it desperately.

"How was work, girl?" coco asked applying a thick layer of bright red lipgloss as I stared at her, we were in her luxurious apartment, a place I could hide away from all the loan sharks that were after me "You are not saying anything, so I'm gonna guess you had a bad day" she looked at me with a worried expression.

" Nothing out of the usual " I smiled sadistically ."I know something is bothering you, Did those bas***ds harass you again? Girl, you can't keep working there, you can find another place to work, I'll just cover up your interests for this month and other expenses ."She walked towards the king-sized bed sitting beside me.

" No, I can't let you do that, it's my responsibility." "Well this responsibility is going to be the death of you, I mean look at you, you wear the same pair of jeans and T-shirt every day, you forget to eat properly and you're buried in debt.

" Even if you work all your life, you would not be able to cover up all the debts and bills with the low income you get, so why don't you let me help you?"

"I don't want to feel in-depth with someone else, "I said. "Please understand." She went quiet. "What about you? How was yesterday with that hot stranger?" I said, changing the slum mood.

"Well," she started twirling her hair, "I don't think words can explain it," she groaned in satisfaction."It was like the best sex I've had in years," and I chuckled.

"My clients lately have been so boring, so I had been thinking of taking a break for a while, but then this guy comes in, Girl!!! He was breathtakingly handsome, like Lord Zeus. Hot face, hot body, six abs, a giant dick, a whole full package, plus he's loaded af," she screamed, wiggling her legs in the air, and I couldn't help but laugh.

"Tell me more," I teased, and she hit me with a pillow. "I can tell you in full detail," she bit her lips seductively. Coco was one of my closest friends. In fact, the only friend I had left and a great support, but she could be a little too foul-mouthed, something I had already gotten used to.

"Enough about me and the sweet details of my new toy, What about your cat?"She asked excitedly. "What do you mean cat? When did I tell you about a cat?"I asked.

I knew who she was asking about but wanted her to correct herself, she is always referring to him as the cat in Tom and Jerry. " Arrgh, you know who but anyways, what about Tom? "She replied with a smirk on her face.

"Well, he is fine, I guess? After we had a really good time two nights ago, he spoilt it by picking a fight. Since he knew about me being in debt, he has just been acting like a dick"

"At least the sex with him was good" Coco replied raising her eyebrows with a sly smile on her face."Oh right!" Her face lit up frantically. "What?" "Bryan said he knew someone who was looking for a nanny, and guess who I put in the good book?" She winked at me. "Who the fuck is Bryan?" I asked, confused, What the hell is she talking about, Nanny?"

"The sexy stranger! Duh! His name is Bryan; his name is hot too, right?" "Anyways, that's not the point. He has a friend who's looking for a nanny for his daughter; the pay is off the chart by the way, and I recommended you. She shrugged.

"Are you being real right now?" I jerked up in excitement, "Hell yes!" "Oh my daze, I don't know what to say." My hands covered my face, and I was filled with joy. "Thanks" is a nice way to start, she commented, and I pulled her into a tight hug. Things were finally looking up.

" What are you still waiting for ?" His voice commanding.

" I didn't hear you well, sir " I murmured, his aura was maddening, as if could feel myself shrinking. "I told you to strip yourself or do you want me to do it for you?".
