The Billionaire's Scheming Seduction

Chapter 2: Meeting the Ruthless Billionaire Jericho Osborne

Nicole Romanov's POV

"I can't believe I'm doing this," I mumbled to myself, dressed as a stripper, as I examined myself in the full-length mirror of the club's dressing room. When Mark entered and saw me, he let out a whistle.

"Damn, you look smoking hot, Nicole." Mark smiles and compliments "This is the key to the VIP room where Jericho and his pals are waiting for the strippers. On stage, you'll be dancing with Alexa. There will be two poles, one for you and one for Alexa, and don't worry, no one will touch you or the bouncer will kick them out so you can strip with ease."

"Wow, thanks. This is quite beneficial to me, Mark." I rolled my eyes remarked sarcastically and headed to the VIP room.

I stood on my side of the pole, nervously searching for Jericho Osborne, when I noticed him gazing at me with a sharp, threatening, and icy expression. Our gazes locked for what felt like an eternity until I was jolted awake by the hooting and whistling of the men who were demanding me to strip.

I gasped and glanced at them, unsure what to do. No way, I'm not going to be able to accomplish this. I can't do this at all. This was a terrible idea. I approached the bouncer and attempted to tell him that I didn't want to do that, but Drake Osborne refused to let me off the stage.

"You are not leaving, Ms. Romanov. Please dance for me." Jericho Osborne gave me the command by referring to me by my surname. Wait! Is he aware of my identity? But how exactly? We hadn't met before. Richard never physically introduced me to him only informing me about him and his family background. I have seen his images with Jared on Google and wow, if he doesn't seem gorgeous.

 “Strip for us, b***h!” one of the men shouted at me to strip and I got uncomfortable. Others joined him and asked for the same thing when Jericho got up from his place and began to leave. At the same moment, Alexa got off the stage in a hurry with her bra hanging halfway as she was on the way to strip herself completely naked for the men. She ran after Jericho and grabbed him by his arm.

 “Handsome, I can make your night worth it if you decide to take me to your bed tonight. And, to your luck, I am in love with the kink, just the way you like.” Alexa purred in a seductive tone in order to gain Jericho’s attention. I can’t let this only chance go so I decided to get off the stage too and joined Alexa but not like the way she was trying to pursue him.

“Mr. Osborne, please give me a chance. I am in need of your desperate help and I know only you can help me. Please don’t go.” I pleaded with him in a desperate tone and held on to his other arms. The men present in the room looked at Alexa and me, fighting to gain the same man’s attention.

“How dare you? You are a new girl over here and you dare to take Jericho Osborne from me. He’s mine for the night. No one can resist me. Look at you. You don’t even look that attractive at all to please Mr. Osborne’s needs. This man can eat you alive, you are just a mouse in front of him while he is the lion.” Alexa snaps at me with hatred in her eyes for me since I became a competition for her tonight.

“Get the f**k out of here!” Jericho’s voice roared in the surroundings, even the music’s sound felt lower than his. His voice sent chills down my spine out of fear. The man was really intimidating as he looked at me with his cold piercing gaze and I gulped while Alexa smirked.

“You heard the man. Now, leave. Shoo, b***h…shoo!” Alexa tries to push me away from Jericho. I stumbled and was about to fall down when Drake caught me on time by wrapping his arm around my waist and pushed Alexa from him harshly like she was a piece of trash.

“Oooww!” Alexa screams dramatically in pain, her naked breasts bouncing and in full view. Trust me, she was calling me unattractive instead she was the one who was barely attractive at all. She was all fake with silicone boobs.

“I wasn’t asking her to leave but you, slut.” Jericho barked at Alexa in anger and nodded at the bouncers “ Take her out of my sight. She disgusts me.”

 “Ms. Romanov, I don’t think you belong over here. What brings the bride of tomorrow over here as a p********e?” Jericho asked in a cold voice after letting me go of his arms. I maintained my posture and stood confidently on my ground.

“How do you know me? We have never met.” I asked.

“The answer to your question is already there, Miss. Romanov. Looks like we know one another by the same source but were never introduced properly. Now, answer my question, what are you doing over here? Is this some kind of your bachelor party in which you become a p********e and fight for other men’s attention before binding yourself to Jared tomorrow?” Jericho asked “And, you better answer my question this time because I don’t like to repeat. You are a heiress to the Romanov throne so this p**********n is not for money unless you want something else. What is it that you want? Is it s*x because my dear best friend doesn’t satisfy your needs?”

“No, I need your help because there is no other way around. “Jericho looked at his companions, nodded his head, and took out a black card from the pocket of his tailored suit jacket.

“I don’t help for free so you better make the decision really carefully before coming to meet me tonight. And, before you come, let me make it clear that if I help you, I might expect something in return. Oh, and one last thing, once you make your decision there will be no regrets or no walking back so make sure you choose wisely.” He ordered in a dominant voice as he placed a shiny black card in my hand. I didn’t bother looking at the card since I was busy looking into his addictive eyes.

“Something like what?” I asked in barely an audible voice.

“s*x,” was all he replied before he walked away, leaving me hanging in the room. I didn’t know what happened and looked down at the card in my hand that he placed earlier. As I looked at it, my eyes widened in realization. The card he placed in my hand wasn’t any card, it was the key to his presidential suite at the five-star hotel he was staying in.

“He wants me to come to his presidential suite tonight and have s*x with him in return for his help?” I mumbled under my breath shocked.
