5 Smoking cigarettes

Marilyn's POV My heart pounded in my chest so much that I feared it would burst and break my rib cage. The knife was just on my skin and any little flutter might cause any injury. Even with my eyes, I saw how sharp and shiny this sharp object before me was. "I will sign it" I suddenly said, and he looked at me. His eyes becoming narrow as he stared at me. "You want to sign it?" He asked, his voice giving hints of surprise and perplexity. I nodded quickly, and vehemently. "Yes!" I responded. "You said you were a virgin" He said, as an eyebrow scrolled up. "Yes, I didn't lie about that," I answered. He smirked, "You are about to give it a try?" He asked. "Yes, I will learn, try my best and do a good job, I promise.” I uttered in a low and soft tone. He chuckled and clapped his hand, after shoving the knife underneath his armpit. I heaved in relief when the knife moved away from me. I could now breathe and not live in fear, and panic. "Good job, girl. I'm sure you will do a great job. Later on, in future, I won't be surprised when you do better than the other girls in the club" He said and I forced a smile, quietly nodding my head. "So, what are you waiting for?" He asked, and my eyes grew wide. What did he mean? I was confused when he said that. What did he mean? I started thinking hard, and fear occupied me instantly. Does it mean that I would start the sex toy job immediately at that point? Wasn't it too fast? I didn't even know what a club looked like. No tour, No explanation, No meeting, No nothing?? "Is it now?" I asked, my voice barely a whisper. "What are you talking about?" His face fell flat as he seemed to control the frown which was about appearing on his face. "Sorry, I don't quite understand what you mean" I confessed in a low and soft voice, with my eyes scrunched together. He sighed, and slammed his hand against his forehead in frustration. "I mean, what are you waiting for, staring and staying there like that? Won't you pick up the paper and sign it already?" "Oh, sorry" I muttered, and still on my knees, I crawled to the paper, and I signed it with the pen which I was still holding. "Good. Give it to me" He said, and I stretched my hand to him. He collected it and after studying it for a while, he smiled, nodding his head in satisfaction. "This is good," He said. "Thank you" I could only say. "You can stand up now" He said, and I bowed before getting up. I dusted myself up and looked up. When my eyes fell on him, I gasped in fear due to the way we were so close to each other. I quickly shifted back, swallowed the heavy thick lump down my throat, and took my eyes down. "What is your name again?" He asked, and I faced him slowly. "Didn't you hear what I said?" He said loudly, a frown on his face. "I said, what is your name?" "Oh, my name" I whispered, and chuckled nervously while scratching the back of my head. "Yes!" He yelled, feeling disgruntled. "The name is Marilyn" I answered, softly, trying hard not to be timid before him. But no matter how I tried to act strong, I was still like a tiny ant before him. "Oh, Marilyn?" He said, and I gave a nod, without saying anything. "What a nice name" He complimented with a smirk appearing on his lips. "Thank you" I muttered, feeling shy already. "By the way, I'm Alejandro" He said and I smiled briefly. I watched him put his hand into his pocket and brought out something. He was holding a pack of cigarettes. He took one and placed it between his lips. "You want one?" He asked, waving the cigarette pack to my face. My face had an unpleasant expression at the sight of the cigarette. "No, thank you" I said, and he laughed. I wondered why he did that though. "Just in case you don't know, smoking these cigarettes is one of those things you need to start learning. Most men in the club like girls who can do that kind of thing. Sometimes, their payments are even higher," he said. "Wow" I said, pretending to be stunned. "Don't worry, in time, I will learn it" He nodded, and brought out a lighter from the other pocket which he used in lighting up the cigarette and as soon as he released the smoke, I began to cough. I placed my hand on my chest as I continued to cough without stopping. After a while, the cough stopped and I stared at him. He laughed and shook his head. "You had better learn these things fast. You are disappointing me" I bowed briefly and looked at him. "I'm sorry, I will try my best. I promise to make you proud. You will even be so surprised. I won't fail you" "Enough with the talk, you can go home. But mind you, my eyes are on you. If you like your life, you had better not run away. I will give you a call and message you on what to do" He said, and I nodded, holding my breath as the smoke was getting too uncomfortable. "Bye, before you die because of some smoke" He said, like he noticed it. I nervously nodded, and ran out of the place. I dashed out of the room and walked down the long stairs. Every corner of this house was loaded with men and I could only imagine what would happen if a thief break in. I found myself outside, and as I walked down the road painstakingly, I engrossed myself in deep thoughts. Never would I think that I would one day be a sex toy in a club! It was so devastating to me. Since I didn't want to go home late, I decided to follow a shortcut which was the alley, and it was silent and very dark. Suddenly, I felt someone pull me from behind. I turned and saw a tall man pointing a torchlight at my face. Beside him were there other men, while two men were holding me tightly so that I would not leave. They were wearing black mask on their face and I could only see their dark midnight eyes. "Who are you people? Please let me go" I begged, shivering in fear. I tried to run but their grip was very strong. "Don't make her run!" The tall man warned before facing me. "Let make sure we all fun with her tonight" Then, he winked at me. I started weeping immediately. It was over for me, so I thought. Then, suddenly from behind, I noticed a figure walking towards us. I squinted my eyes, and saw it was Alejandro! "What do you think you are doing?!" His booming voice sounded, causing the men to quickly release me.
