 About the Author
 Chapter 1
 I was walking down a crowded, smelly street when I heard someone calling out to me. Turning my head to him, it turned out he was none other than a barker – a man responsible for picking out women in crowds like this one and inviting her to work for his hostess club.
 I was walking with my head down, thinking about the future and what my life was going to be like if my university degree didn’t help me with landing a job. Working for a hostess club wasn’t my idea of making it in life, though I could see why so many girls like me ended up choosing that kind of lifestyle.
 Lifestyle, huh? Not sure if I should be calling it that. The whole thing wasn’t seen with good eyes by our society, and I didn’t need something else to add to the stigma associated with the kind of person I was.
 The guy stopped in front of me, panting. He needed to chill out. I could see why he was feeling a little desperate to make me work for him, though. In his line of business, he probably got paid by the number of women he convinced to work for the club.
 The street was still really packed, and I could barely hear his words as he talked to me.
 “Miss! I’m not sure if you’ve heard it, but our hostess club is inviting more girls to work for us. Payment is really good, and all the women that work for us are pretty happy with being here. I’m sure you’d feel the same way, if you give us a chance.”
 “I’m sorry, but I don’t really need the money right now. Thanks for the offer, though.”
 Except that I did need the money. Power and water bills were beginning to pile up, and I didn’t know if and when I would have the money needed to pay the next partition of my college loan. Still couldn’t believe I had to take that loan. Everything would be so much better right now had I not requested it.
 Dad and mom could not pay my college debts, and I’d found myself at an impasse. It had been either getting the loan or finding myself working in a club like that one, where women my age whored themselves for some money – and it wasn’t enough to pay all their bills.
 I supposed they didn’t have a choice – like I hadn’t had with the loan thing. That still pained my heart a little, making me wonder when I was going to be able to pay it.
 And right now, I really needed to continue focusing on my academic career. That and achieving the promise of a good job in a good company. Gosh, why did working had to be so hard?
 His hand grabbed my arm, stopping me. “Are you sure? Because this could be the opportunity of a lifetime for you, and I’m not going to be offering it to many other people.”
 “Yes, my mind is made up about it, and I know there ought to be many more people out there willing to work for you. But unfortunately, I’m not one of those.”
 His hand let go of my arm and I walked away from there with a smile on my face. I knew I was going to make everything right. I knew I was going to make my life better, the prospect of working in a nice office environment already making my heart beat a little faster.
 If I could make it work – If things turned around in my life – I wouldn’t even have to ever walk down this street again. It was just too crowded, and right now I really needed to stop letting that kind of thought ruin my mood.
 I shouldn’t let that sort of thing ever happen again.
 But then I heard another pair of footsteps rushing to me again, stopping right behind me. I whirled around to meet them, finding the guy from before. He was panting as hard as he had been a couple of seconds ago, and I could tell that he wasn’t about to give up easily. This guy was a little too persistent for my liking.
 “Are you sure about that, miss? We could give you a test drive of sorts. You would work for us for a night, and if you like it, we could hire you. Of course, it’s nothing guaranteed, and...”
 “Yes, I’m pretty sure I don’t need that right now. Now, if you will excuse me...”
 I spun on my heels, but he spoke again.
 “I can make the payment double of what it is. You would be making a lot of money working here.”
 I had no choice but to turn to him, finding his proposal a little out of the ordinary.
 “Double the normal
