Suddenly, the doorbell rang.
Everyone looked between one other, frozen. It can’t be that the strippers were the ones at the door right now?
Suddenly, as if an invisible director shouted, “Action! ” all the girls rushed to the door, battling to open the door first.
Finally, the door was opened, the squabble began:
“How could you be late?!”
“Do you know what we went through because of your lateness?! “
“I almost lost an eye!”
“I thought you guys were professional!”
“Ladies shut it!!!” Emily screamed, their chatters died down instantly.
Emily’s chest was heaving as she stepped forward and asked the three men all dressed in black jackets,
“Are you guys the strippers?”
“Yes,” One who seems to be the leader answered with a wavering dry, husky voice; he must smoke a lot.
Truth be told, Emily was not impressed by their appearance, they weren’t as good-looking as she thought.
“Was there a change because you guys look different from what I saw on your profiles?” Lisa scrutinized them. She always had an eye out for the pretty ones.
“Yes, you’re right,” the other man acquiesced, “The initial guys had an accident on the way here – we’re their replacements – hence the reason for the delay,”
“Oh my God,” Cecil, the emotional one gasped, “I’m so sorry, hope there was no life lost,”
“We don’t know as of the moment,” the first man answered.
“Aren’t you going to invite us in?” asked the third man.
“Of course, come in,” Emily had already made way for them to come in when Camille the observant one said out of nowhere,
“Stop right there”
“Huh?” everyone was surprised by her halt.
“Where are your props?” she asked.
The three men said in unison, “Props?”
“Why are you asking me that? I should be the one asking you that… where is the equipment you’re going to use to do your thing as strippers..wait a minute,” it dawned on her, ” Are you guys even professional strippers?”
The reply Cecil received was for guns to be pointed at her head. It happened so quickly that the girls had to process what just happened a minute later.
“Ahh!” the others screamed and ran back into the house while Camille lifted her hands, innocently.
“Gerald, lock the door! Jade stop them from calling for help!” the man who seemed to be their leader barked, “You move!” he gestured to Camille to start walking into the house.
Emily had picked her phone to call the chauffeur Judy sent to get help when the phone was ripped from her grasp and smashed against the wall.
“Get down on your knees!” Maxwell the leader bellowed and the girls screamed yet obeyed – all except the drunk Reina still trying to free herself.
“What do you want? We would give it to you willingly, please don’t hurt us,” Emily tried to negotiate with them.
Jade was busy searching for phones and devices for communication, disabling them.
“Of course, I know you’re going to give me whatever I want because you all are loaded, ” Maxwell said with a sleazy smile that sent shivers down their spine.
He continued, “We’ve been watching you all day ever since the casino and checked your backgrounds…. ” he laughed cheekily,” Turns out you all are big shots, “
The girls looked at one another, seems like they weren’t as low-key as they thought.
“Jade, search their rooms! Get their credit cards and whatever goodies you can find in there,” He commanded.
“Yes, leader! ” he left to begin his work.
“Now, the rest of you would stay still like good little angels while I -“
“Freedom!!!” Reina’s excited shout interrupted him as she finally got out of those binds.
Both men looked on with confusion, they had not noticed her earlier.
“Lady, get down before we blast your head off,” Maxwell pointed the gun at Reina which made the girls scream. They tugged at Reina’s ankle trying to make her kneel but the drunk girl kicked their grasps away and staggered over to the dazed men – she was a weird one.
“Hey men, are you the strippers?” there was a happy glint in her eyes as she tried to hug Jade who pushed her away to Maxwell.
“I said go down woman!” Maxwell struck Reina on the face.
Emily and the others let out a shriek at the action, Reina’s head swiped to the side from the impact. Her eyes turned red like a robot in attacking mode, a malevolent smirk curling her lips to the side.
“Why is she staring at us that way, boss? It’s creepy,” Jade whispered to him, unsure.
“What is creepy?!” Maxwell dismissed his claim away and tried to hit Reina the second time to get her to obey his order when she caught his hand in a death grip.
“How dare you? Are you asking for a death wish?” The man was enraged by her guts.
