"Huh, it looks like it's cold tonight. Of course it's very cold, I'm not wearing a jacket, plus I'm only wearing a short black skirt and a white shirt that slightly exposes the mounds of my breasts that are poking out," I said, standing in front of the apartment unit I was renting.
As usual, I had to go to work at a club not too far from my apartment. With just a short walk, I was already there.
Once at the club, I stopped in front of the entrance, silently praying that no more men would bother me, even blatantly touching my firm bum.
I knew what risks I would have to face if I worked in a club populated by thousands of men and women who would have se*ual relations there. But me, I was only focused on working and even until today I am still a virgin, I have never had se*ual intercourse with anyone including my boyfriend, Casper Kingston.
Although, he always forced me to have that se*ual intercourse.

"Hey, you're so pretty baby, how about we sleep together!" the man, who was about 23 years old, asked me.
I let out a long sigh, having just walked in, I was already greeted with such crocodile advances.
"Sorry, sir. But I'm only here to earn halal money, I have no desire to sell my body to men like you," I said, pointing to each of the three men currently surrounding me.
"Ha... Ha... Ha... no need to be sanctimonious Miss, we know that you're definitely not a virgin anymore," said one of them who didn't believe my words.
"Whatever. Now get out of my way, or I'll kick those genitals the three of you have!" I said in a threatening tone.
I thought they would leave after hearing my threat, but I was wrong. They, in fact, forced me even harder, they looked at me as if they wanted to strip me naked.
Just as I was about to run, one of the men pulled my hand forcefully into their embrace, I was terrified now, I wanted to scream but there was no way anyone would care. They must have thought that I was serving the three of them.
"Let go of me! I just want to work well here, please." My knees were trembling, tears were even streaming down my cheeks.
"Stop your crazy actions, and let my friend go right now!" That saviour's voice, she was my friend, Clara Theodore.
The three men who tried to r**e me earlier, now moved to leave me. And I myself, immediately ran to hug my best friend who had become my saviour today.
"Thank you Clara, thank you. I don't know how bad things would have been if you hadn't come to save me," I said, sobbing in my best friend's arms.
"Calm yourself down first, then get to work!" Clara ordered, and I nodded as I wiped away my tears.
After calming down, I started walking towards the bar counter, waiting to deliver the orders to be served from table to table.
One by one, I served the orders at their respective tables, fortunately no one bothered me anymore, so my work became smooth without any obstacles.

Bughhhh ....
"Ouch, what's this?" I thought, lamenting the stupidity of what I had just done.
"Watch your step, b*tch!" the man said to me with a curse.
The man's voice, so heavy and seductive in my ears. Was I crazy? I can't explain it now, the man's voice was deep and sounded so sensual, even though he had just sworn at me.
In the middle of my daydream, I felt a large hand with prominent veins now firmly gripping my neck. The man forced me to look up at him, gazing into the beautiful blue eyes he had.
"So-sorry, sir!" I said softly, "I accidentally bumped into you." I continued my sentence, trying to release the strong stranglehold of the man I didn't even recognise.
How was this, I could have died if the man in front of me hadn't stopped choking my neck. As soon as I almost ran out of oxygen, the man suddenly kissed my lips, burying his sexy lips on my natural pink lips.
I didn't give him access to continue the action any further, however, he bit down hard on my lips, probably hurting my lips right now because of his bite.
As soon as I remembered my lover Casper's face, I swiftly pushed the man's body, then slapped his face very strongly, you can see that his cheeks are now red and there are five finger marks there.
"You're so insolent, you bastard!" I cursed, my breath coming in gasps as I roughly wiped the man's saliva from my lips.
The man didn't reply, instead just gave me a glare as if he wanted to kill me right then and there, then he moved to leave me behind, climbing the club's stairs to the top floor.
"What the hell is that guy? He took a kiss from me just like that, but he didn't even say a word of apology." My fingers moved roughly to wipe my lips.
I don't want to care, I'm now praying silently, praying not to meet that person with blue eyes again, because of his impudence just now. Although I myself don't know, whether fate will bring me together with that man whom I don't even recognise anymore, or not.
Just as I was about to resume my work, Clara came up to me again, apparently having just seen the kissing scene that had just taken place.
"What was that, Helena?" she asked, pulling me to sit down.
"What?" I asked back.
"You were kissed by that guy, do you know who he is?" she asked, looking at me with a panicked face.
"No, I don't. To me, he's just an insolent man and a total bastard," I said, still furious about his actions just now.
"Husstt... keep your tone down, Helena! Or else the people of that lord, won't spare us if they hear you swearing,"
"Before you speak ill of that man, you should first recognise who he is," Clara said, looking at me.
Clara looked at me deeply, her eyes filled with real concern.
"You have to be careful, he is Orion Dante, a ruthless mobster who knows no mercy. No one would dare slap or insult him like you did earlier," she whispered hoarsely.
Clara continued, her voice growing quieter, "Orion is also famous for his fearsome reputation as the vile Cassanova. Any woman who bonded intimately with him would end up horribly-murdered, not because he wanted to erase the trail, but because it was his pleasure. He's a horrible psychopath, I just hope you won't end up on his blacklist."
I swallowed, feeling my heart racing to the point of almost bursting, while tears began to stream down my cheeks.
"Really, Clara? What should I do if my name is already on his hit list? I'm so scared... I still want to try to live," I said in a trembling voice.
"I can't do anything but pray for your safety. I'm sorry, it's time for us to get back to work!" Clara stopped the conversation, then invited me to get back to work.
I knew I had made a big mistake, but I never imagined I would have this kind of misfortune when I was only trying to protect myself.
Not wanting to think about anything else, I quickly finished all my work, after which I asked permission to leave early.
Overcome with fear, I continued to run towards my apartment. For some reason, I felt like someone was following me, whether it was just me or someone was following me right now.
