Melanie

He appeared at the club everyday, she eyed him everday his every behavior. She knew what kind of drink he took. Her new job as a waitress was fun and she enjoyed it since she knew how to avoid men from getting into her pants. Let's just say she has a way with men. Today she arrived early and was waiting for the evening shift to start. Not many customers have arrived and she knew she had time to wander around the club.

She knew that Aliyan sold drugs at the back of the building with some tycoons. He rarely talked with his employees, her and the rest, as he was busy shipping the 'goods' in and out of the country.

"Melanie?" she heard a call from behind her ,it was Sarah. She is the daughter of some of the rich guys who work with Aliyan. She nodded at her and she approached her.

"Aliyan wants to see you, in his office or whatever he calls that shit hole he stays in" Sarah walked away as she approached some rich dude. Some colleague of hers looked at her and whispered something she didn't hear. Seems like they were laughing at her.

Melanie was surprised by the sudden call since she had never spoken with him since she came here except on the first day. She knocked on his door which was already slightly opened.

"Ooh Melanie, how nice to see you ,come in and have a seat" he gestured for her to sit on the chair. She said nothing and kept waited. Why did she even come early? She suddenly regretted it since she could sense some fear or was it nervousness grip her whole being.

"So , since I think you have gotten accustomed to this place ,I think it's time that you finally join the team" her brows furrowed in wonder.

"Team?!" she asked.

" I mean that you have to join your other fellows in doing what's necessary for the business, you didn't really think that that much amount of money we pay was just for being a waitress, did you?" it's true since she wondered why they paid that much money for just being a waitress.

"No I didn't"

"Good , today you will be doing your first task, it's very easy I'll show you , follow me" he stood and pressed some button on his table that made a door behind him open. She followed him and the small room that was most definitely an elevator. Expecting it to go down, it didn't And neither did it go up. It went further to the inside of the room and finally stopped. Her palms were getting sweaty.

The door opened and that's when she saw all of them. It's true she saw almost fifty girls get insitthis bar and she always Wondered where they went. But her they were all of them in very shady clothing. Some had masks others lab coats while others were being strapped to folded white papers.

"This is where we make money Melanie, if you join them your salary also increases too and you can stop being a waitress to do something more better." He said proudly, one could tell how proud he felt due to his business.

"And what if I don't want to join them?" she asked looking at him and she already guessed the answer wouldn't be so appealing.

He smirked evily and his one dimple showed ," do you remember what I told you on your first day, I asked you if you were sure about this job and you accepted then I continued and told you that now you belong to me , you really don't have and option Melanie"

She knew that statement meant something back then but she wasn't so keen in on it. Now she was to become a drug peddler whether she liked it or not.

" You will start tomorrow from six in the evening and let me promise you this will be the easiest job you've ever had or done" she nodded and followed some guy out of the room.

*******

She sat on the high chairs and stared at him unknowingly. Her thoughts were so far away, thinking, no, wondering if she wanted to do that job or not. The job that would get her into alot of trouble if not careful but she needed the money Soo bad since her mother's condition had not improved at all. And she most definitely wanted to hi back to college, what was life without education?

Her concentration was brought back to earth when she saw him sitting next to her.

"You've been staring at me for a while now" he sipped from the glass.

"I have?" she thought out loud.

"Mmh , you have alot on your mind"

"I guess I do"

"I can make you leave this place now and nobody will question you since you left with a customer and I'll pay them well" she looked at him with questions in her mind.

Naturally if some customer is interested in some girl that would go to Aliyan, pay and leave with them whether she wanted it or not but he was giving her an option,he was helping her in some way because she truly wanted to leave right now.

"That's not bad at all but why do you seem to be helping me in some way"

"Am not I just want a night with you" he smiled at her displaying his beautiful dimples. So he was just like the rest but he seemed different. It wouldn't be so bad to have a night with guy ,he was way hotter than even her previous boyfriends.

"Ok let's go"

'Hasty decisions have bad consequences' her subconscious told her but she ignored it.

He held her hand and they walked out. The warmth that spread through her body when he touched startled her.
