When Tam found out how much money a hostess could earn in a night, she reckoned that it wouldn’t take long for her to save up enough for her to leave the Devil’s Den and find a place of her own. Besides, this was a controlled environment with bodyguards to make sure the clients didn’t get out of line. It was much safer than being on the streets.
Tam had been set up in a nice apartment that she thankfully didn’t have to share with anyone else like some of the other girls. The first few days she was subjected to drug and STD tests. Natalia had warned her not to get too comfortable because if any tests came back positive then she would be out. Once the results came back clean, Tam’s training had begun. There was so much she had to learn it was like being in school all over again, but here she was.
Tonight would be her club debut.
She took a deep breath and pushed away from the mirror and walked out to the living room.
“Took you long enough. I was about to come in there and get you.” Julie, a petite blonde looked her up and down, inspecting Tam’s appearance.
Julie had been Tam’s mentor since her arrival and basically showed her the ropes and explained how things were done. She was also one of the few hostesses that was friendly toward Tam. Julie had explained that all of the women had gone through extensive screening processes before being hired and were probably just jealous that Tam had gotten in so easily, not to mention who had recommended her.
Tam couldn’t have known at the time, but apparently, Seamus was a big deal at the club and most of the hostesses vied for his favor. It must have been why Natalia had given in to him so easily. She hadn’t seen him since the day he’d dropped her off but for some reason, he was never far from her thoughts. Tam couldn’t help but wonder what his motives were. Not that it mattered anyway. She had a goal in mind and she intended to see it through to get what she wanted.
“I was just making sure I looked okay.”
“You look hot. I wouldn’t be surprised if you catch the eye of a big spender. You and Brooklyn are the only black girls, but she’s not as…”
Tam raised a brow. “Dark?”
Julie turned a deep shade of red beneath her heavy foundation. “I didn’t mean it like that, I meant—”
Tam held up her hand. “I understand. No offense taken.” Brooklyn was so light in skin tone that one could only tell her ethnicity when they were in close proximity. It didn’t help that she wore long blonde weave and blue-colored contacts. She was a beautiful woman but her attitude left a lot to be desired. They stayed out of each other’s way.
“You look nervous, but don’t be. You’ll be great. I remember my first night, I was shaking so bad, I thought I’d throw up, but the first guy I entertained was so nice he put me at ease. It gets easier each time you do it.” Julie gave her a reassuring pat.
“I’ll take your word for it.”
During the elevator ride down, Tam had to clutch the railing to stop her hands from shaking. Could she really go through with this? Once inside the club, she could see that some of the hostesses were already mingling with clients. A few of them were standing around, conversing with some of the clients, while others were cordoned off at private booths. Tam followed Julie over to a couple of gentlemen hanging at the bar.
“Harry, good evening. It’s been a while since your last visit.” Julie greeted the older of the pair with an air kiss on the cheek.
The man who was probably old enough to be Julie’s grandfather wrapped his arm around the blonde’s waist and pulled her in for a deep long kiss. When he pulled away, he smiled down at her. “Now that’s a proper hello.”
Julie giggled, giving the appearance of a nervous schoolgirl even though she was dressed like a full-grown woman. The silver-sequined V-neck dress was short, barely covering Julie’s crotch and displayed a generous amount of side boob. And it completely exposed her back leaving her practically naked. Tam noticed the old man kept his hand planted squarely on Julie’s bottom. “Harry, I’d like to introduce you to one of our newest hostesses. This is Tamryn.”
The old man turned his dark gaze in her direction and looked her up and down before smirking. “Nice to meet you,” he nodded politely because he was clearly into Julie. His friend who he had been speaking with however stared directly at Tam’s breasts.
“Jason, you have a taste for dark meat, don’t you?” Harry snickered.
