Chapter 5
Andre had just got into the strippers room. He would have made a knock on the door but it was wide open.
“I did not give her any money” he said in a very calm tone.Belongs to (N)ôvel/Drama.Org.
“Oh, Andre, you think because you like this witch you could cover for her?” Selma yelled. “It’s not going to happen until she gives my twelve percent or she’s out!”.
“It is you who might be out”. “You are falsely accusing her, yelling at me and indirectly calling me a liar. Remember, I own this place and I want whoever I want in it”. Andre responded pulling Vanessa out the door with him.
“If she goes on your nerves or tries to mess things up with you, Let me know ” Andre whispered to Vanessa before headed to his room.
“Hey, Also you are excused for the night. Have fun with your other friends “. Selma, whose tone was really low now,
“I made you, you got his attention and you want to make me lose my job, Vanessa be careful of who you are meddling with”.

“You have not been working well tonight Miles, are you fine?” Miles boss, Nick asked. Should he tell a lie and go see if Vanessa was really at the club or he should trust her and continue to wok.
This troubled him for a minute. “I am very much okay sir, Thanks for the care”. he answered before Nick had gone to check on his other employees. Miles had to lie because he felt already made a mistake not trusting her the night earlier and would not want to go to the club, have himself and Vanessa embarrassing publicly. He called her number after he had drop the carton of butter he was carrying.
“How is your health now babe?” he said in his thick manly voice. Everywhere was quiet as she had already headed to one of the store rooms when she saw his call. The sounds getting there were not loud to prove she was in a club and not home. A strong sleeper would have a good rest there.
“I am fine sweetheart. How is work going?” she responded in a sweet but tired tone that she had just faked.
“Pretty good but hectic” he answered. There was no loud music. It was just as silent as her house was. Probably Chris was just playing jokes on him. “I just called to know how you were doing. I love you “.
“Thanks a lot, I love you too. See you soon. Bye” she smiled with a sigh of victory. It was a best idea I called, I would have just embarrassed myself and lost my relationship.

Already on the poles, it wasn’t Vanessa night as it always has been usually. She only seemed to have made just a few dollars. People were all over two strippers Stanway and Lucy, spraying them all their hard currencies. “What could they be doing different?” Vanessa thought. She got down from the pole she was on, and in a glance she saw them both totally naked, right in front of the whole crowd. People were already making videos of them. It was not a usual thing. The men were wowed. Their bodies made every inch of the men’s cock hard. “This is not how it is meant to be. Why are they doing this? Who gave them these orders?” she thought within her head quickly. “Was it because I had taken the spotlights?, remembering the discussion in the room last night. Wow, that escalated quickly. I hope we all don’t end up hating each other.
“Yes, no more crowd for you”. Knowing Vanessa would not go naked in front of the crowd. Selma made those two go naked, gave them the orders and told them she was taking no percentage of their income that day. She had always had thirty percent. They were fine with the deal and did it right away. “She had better pay me my percent from the income today. If she needs money she won’t be a thief. She should spend from the money he gave her yesterday, Selma murmured. This was no longer a fair business. First, Andre refused to pay her, Selma thinks she’s a thief and now she’s no longer earning as she always had did. “I am quitting and heading home, this was a wrong idea” she said as she walked to Selma’s office to let her know her decision.
“Selma! Why are you not being fair? Why do you think of me as a liar and a thief”. Selma was shocked. She never thought Vanessa could own a beast tone in her. Not wanting to act small, “Because I know you are a thief and a liar” Selma added in her own very loud tone. The two went on exchanging words that were so insultive and disturbing. “I am done here!” were the last words Vanessa said as she went out the door. “That’s best for you Witch! Go and never come back!” Selma yelled.

Theresa was already waiting outside to attack Vanessa and she just made it really early and easy for her. Not being conscious, pissed, angry and sad, Vanessa was heading home barely noticing anything around her.
“Put her in the Van and let’s move before anyone sees us”. Theresa was talking to the three men she had along with her. She had just hit Vanessa with a log of wood she saw by the roadside. Helpless and unconscious, she was dragged into the black Mercedes van. “No one
messes with me and go free. Tie her on the chair, use the tape on her mouth and set fire around her, she should feel the heat she left inside of me. The environment was so hot, even a person in a coma might just wake up.
About two hours later,
“Help! Help!!” Vanessa screamed out as loud as she could. She was grieving from the pain of the hit on her head and heat around her. Two of the men came out with iron rods in the there hand. Perry – dark and with a bodybuilder’s shape, went on to her and tore the tape out of her mouth. “Ow!”, she cried. Trying to kiss her, of course she was pretty and attractive to most men, Vanessa dodged Perry like she had expected it. “Hey! No one is allowed to kiss the prisoner”. This voice sounded so familiar but her head in pain couldn’t think straight or it’d keep aching. “Theresa!” she screamed with every strength in her. “Yayyy!, its me”. Theresa responded with a wicked smile.
****”
“She did what!!” asked Andre.
“She quit. Why are you so bothered? Its not like she mattered here.” Selma said making a bad stare at Andre.
“Get her back tonight and if she doesn’t come back with you, you lose your job!!”. Andre slammed the door so hard the whole floor went quiet by the shock. Andre had left but there was another phone in the room buzzing. Selma’s murmurs followed. The little witch had left her phone, she would come for it. After thirty minutes had passed, the unanswered calls were already sixteen and from the same contact saved as My Man Forever with a smiley emoji and a red heart. “It could be her dad, her boyfriend, her brother or maybe a male best friend”, she thought. One more call and I would answer it.
It was past 11pm now, Vanessa was still being tortured by Theresa, Miles and Lance were again looking for Vanessa not knowing this time she had really been kidnapped.
“Chris said he saw her at the club, I’d head there and check her. She might have bern knocked out by those alcohols.” She was a bad drinker. Okay son, I’ll keep calling her phone. It was Lance that has been calling all long.
“Hello, Where are you? Why do you keep running off late at night?.” Some seconds of silence ruled, Selma had just picked the call and it sounded like she was missing really. Selma ended the call and in two minutes she was already by her car. “Hey ma’am”. Miles who had just left the store and wanted to see how Vanessa’s health was doing just got to Club Nexus and stumbled on Selma as she was about to enter her car.
“Yes? Need my help?” she asked
“Yes please I do. I’m looking for a white slender girl, about this tall – he just demonstrated, blue eyes and blonde hair. She was last seen here.” Miles had just poured all he could think of. Her name is Vanessa Warner.
