Episode 1

The smoke that came from his mouth was hypnotic; every time that man smoked his cigar, it was a delight to the eyes. It was the only good thing about working at the club: seeing Mr. Seth. His name was very strange, so I knew that this man wasn't American. Hearing things from the other girls, I learned that he was half Egyptian. It's no wonder his appearance is so unusual: dark skin, soft hair, black as jet, and green eyes like bright emeralds. And that body looks so firm, perfect in every way, like a handmade statue. It is said that he is an oil tycoon, and that he frequents this club for the services that are offered. I've never been able to see him up close, because all the waitresses, when Mr. Seth comes, fight over serving him, but it's better that way, since they also say that his tastes are very unique, and I haven't even been with a boy, how can I do what those women do?

My name is Lilith, like the first woman created. My mother, who was from the bad life, gave me that name, not because she was religious, but because it meant, in some places it said, the name meant Bird of the Night, or belonging to the night. It's like a curse that has been following me since I was born. I never wanted to come to this kind of place, however, it's the only place where they hire a 20-year-old girl, and they pay her so much money. This is the Blue Moon Club, a place where there are many escorts, but it's a very exclusive place. Only men with a lot of money come here, and the women who work here are not normal prostitutes, they have to have certain special conditions. I read it all before starting to work here.

Requirements for escorts:

Good presence.

With studies.

With good manners.

With little or no cosmetic surgery.

Of legal age, but under 30 years old.

Among other things that I don't even want to remember. There are four classes of girls working at the club, these are:

Class A and B escorts.

Waitresses.

Cleaners.

Class A escorts have the best clients, like Mr. Seth. They can go out with clients outside the club, even go on vacation with them.

Class B escorts can only please clients inside the club, nothing more. I know they can go from class B to A or vice versa.

Then there are the waitresses. First, we all sign a confidentiality agreement that can be used for a civil lawsuit. Then, you can't have sexual contact with clients, neither inside nor outside the club. However, if the client is interested and the waitress agrees, they can make a service contract where the club will be the mediator and receive a percentage, but that waitress can only serve that client, no one else.

And finally, the cleaners, who take care of the mess left behind by the clients. The male staff are guards, bartenders, and security. Relationships between employees are prohibited, especially between escorts and security or guards.

Luckily for me, I'm in the safe area, and I earn enough to pay for my grandmother's medical expenses and live in a room in a not very safe neighborhood, but now I don't feel desperate. My life went downhill when my grandmother got sick. She is my only relative. My mother died of an overdose. I never knew who my father was. She had so many clients, but she knew who I was the daughter of, because she told me once while she was high, that she had me, from the only man she loved, but that that man didn't want me. Apparently, she told him about my existence, however, he didn't accept me. I don't blame him. A woman from the street, told him that she would have his son, I in his place, would not believe her either. It was my grandmother who raised and educated me. I was going to go to university, I was very happy, but when she got sick, I couldn't do it, so I ended up here, and paying expensive monthly medical bills. I don't regret anything, I'm returning the grace of being raised well, having a good childhood, never going hungry or naked, and most importantly, never having to live with my mother and her abusive boyfriends.

While serving the tables, I sometimes looked at the VIP area. Mr. Seth looked so handsome in light-colored suits. White seemed to be his favorite color, he always came dressed impeccably in white. While I was coming and going, something happened. Apparently, one of the waitresses spilled a glass of wine on Mr. Seth, so he took off his stained shirt, and was left only with white pants. I looked and saw that he had a broad and toned chest, just as I imagined. Susan, the girl who serves him most often, immediately brought another shirt for him, however, the waitress was fired, since she was making advances to Mr. Seth, and that's why she made that mistake, so the others were afraid to go to the private area on the second floor and serve Mr. Seth, then.

"Lilith, come here."

"Yes, Manager."

"Go up to the second floor and serve Mr. Sawiris, I can only trust you for this."

Mr. Jackson, the club manager said it, because I'm an apathetic person, with no interest in easy wealth, and who hasn't been involved in anything strange, in the 6 months that I've been working here, although I think Mr. Seth Sawiris is handsome, I won't lose my job for something I can't have.

I went up to the second floor immediately, and introduced myself to the man who seemed to be in a bad mood, because although Susan seemed to try to comfort him, he didn't change the furious expression on his face. You can tell that this name is terrible, besides beautiful.

"Hello Mr. Sawiris, I'm Lilith and I'll be serving you from now on, is there anything I can offer you?"

He didn't look at me, he just stayed there upset, I stood there like a statue, until he decided what he wanted, then he said,

"Bring me, a bottle of my favorite wine,"

"Yes, Sir,"

I hurried down the stairs, and went to Tony, the most experienced bartender, when the manager saw me coming down, he asked him to give me priority,

"Tony I need a Penfolds Block 42 2004."

"Isn't that Mr. Sawiris's favorite wine?"

"Yes, he just asked for it,"

"Do you want the bottles, uncorked or un-uncorked?"

"Uncorked, I think 🤔 Mr. Sawiris, likes new things."

Tony put two glasses on a tray, then I said,

"Only one glass."

He knew why, but he removed one glass, put the wine, they are cold, then I said,

"Give me a bottle at room temperature."

He did so, removed the bottle, and put one at room temperature, and a silver uncorked, it was fine, with the uncorked, I took the tray, and went up, as fast as I could, I put the tray on the table in front of Mr. Sawiris, took two steps back and asked him,

"Sir, do you uncork the bottle or do I do it?"

The man looked at me for the first time, and I could see up close his beautiful green eyes like two large bright emeralds, I stood very still, waiting for him to say something, however, it was Susan who spoke to me furiously.

"How useless you are, why didn't you bring the bottle open?, another thing, there is only one glass, where is mine?"

I took a deep breath and replied,

"Mr. Sawiris, only ordered me, to bring his favorite bottle of living, he never said anything about, uncorking it, or sharing it with someone else."

"You, wench...."

He raised a hand, as a signal for Susan to stop, then he said,

"You are the first who does just what you are told, and doesn't even try to do anything else, to get my attention, I like that."

Apparently his mood had improved, he gave me a very strange smile, then he told me,

"You can leave, now."

"Yes, sir."

I shot off to the first floor, I went back to serving the tables downstairs, today there were many clients, even though Mr. Seth Sawiris was the most important and richest of all, I felt that the night was passing slowly, because so many things have happened and it's barely ten o'clock, after going around many times, I placed myself in a place where I could clearly see the second floor, just in case, Mr. Seth needs something, I could see him from that place, not much time had passed, when Susan gave me a signal so I went up again.

I ran upstairs, like in a marathon, so I arrived immediately, I stood nearby, but not so much as to be uncomfortable, then Susan started asking me things,

"What's your name?"

"Lilith Smith."

"How old are you?"

"20 years old."

"How long have you been working here?"

"6 months."

"Why are you a waitress, you are pretty you can be an escort?"

"I just want to be a waitress."

For a moment she stopped, the man next to her, was attentive to my answers, there was something strange here, a woman like this is not so interested in someone else, unless her boss is interested, what madness, how can this man be interested in me.

She took the bottle of wine, poured wine into the glass, where Mr. Sawiris was drinking, raised the glass and said to me,

"Drink this wine."

I instantly replied,

"No."

"You refuse to please a client."

"It is not the client who offers me the wine, so I can refuse, and if the client offers it to me as I am a waitress and we are prohibited from, drinking and interacting intimately with clients, I can also refuse."

She lowered the glass of wine, she seemed angry, then Mr. Seth spoke,

"We made a bet, Susan just lost, I told her that you wouldn't drink the glass of wine, she insists that you would."

The only question that came to my mind was, what did they bet?, but it was too much on my part to ask him that, then without warning, the man got up from his seat, I took two steps back to give him more space, he walked around me twice, looking at me from top to bottom, I felt that those green eyes were devouring me, the growing interest he showed in me gave me chills, because it was noticeable, that was the kind of man, who always got what he wanted, no matter what.

Luckily, I'm not to his liking, Susan was a voluptuous woman, with long hair, tall, but not taller than him, she seemed exotic, in front of her I'm very common, so I can't even imagine that this man, is interested in me.

"You can go now."

"Yes, sir."

I turned around immediately to leave, then he said,

"Wait."

I stopped immediately, turned around and looked at him, I was waiting, for orders, he began to ask,

"Do you have a boyfriend?"

"No"

"Do you like someone?"

"No."

"You are...?"

He was going to ask me something else, but he didn't,

"You can leave,"

I left, the night passed very slowly, I left work, luckily I didn't have to work the next day, so I would sleep, a little and look for something to do at night.
