The Paternity's hideout was a lot cleaner on the inside than it looked on the outside. It resembled something like a gangster hideout and a posh nightclub mixed together. Fancy dim lights adorned the ceiling and walls, tables and chairs cleaned and waxed, polished silverware, and even the runways were cleared after every show so there was no excess glitter or undergarments sitting anywhere. Every fabric from the curtains to the napkins were ironed and pressed to perfection. The layout of this place was the polar opposite of the guy's frequenting it.

A sinner of every type was a guest in The Paternity. Larger demons in fancy suits (probably CEO's or Law Firms), and smaller skinny ones who were measly drug dealers and smugglers. These forms of social groups wouldn't even socialize with one another if not for one singular reason: They were all fathers who had been screwed over by their own flesh and blood. Hence the name "The Paternity".

Each sinner either had a falling out with their kid resulting in an accidental death, were sent to Hell for killing their kid, or if the kid killed the sinner themselves in self-defense, that was the one thing all the sinners in this association had in common. This was why there were little to no fights or brawls in this club. They all could relate to each other.

Getting in here as an employee or performer was simple as strudels, it was getting out that was gonna be the difficult part. Obviously it wasn't like the gang can just walk through the front door after the deed is done, every sicko and creep would be on their tails to the Wrath Ring and back if they have to.

Jessamine and Blitzø went rigid as the doors opened to be greeted by a large dark gray spider demon with a fedora hat nestled in his messy hair and a loose tie hanging around his thick neck like a noose. He held a beer can in one hand and the door in the other. He stared down at them with nothing but malice and hatred in all eight of his white glowing eyes. (This character does NOT belong to me, this belongs to Vivziepop so credit goes to her!)

"Oi, Boss! Who's at da door?" A voice rang from inside and the spider grunted before pointing for Jess and Blitzø to come in. Loona followed, but steered clear of anyone who might follow them.

"It's the entertainment ol' Sid sent!" Henroin called back before making his way back to his seat, where his card game was put on hold. About to win the whole pot, he was.

"Well hello there, beautiful" the owner of that same voice approached Jessamine, ogling her from head to toe practically drooling. Jess didn't exactly enjoy such attention but she had learned to milk them dry for it back in her stripping days (which almost always ended with most of the customers leaving with empty wallets.) Actually what made it worth it, was Blitzø.

Blitzø wasn't doing so hot himself, every time he even looked in someone's general direction he'd end up stuck in a montage of freaky flirting and creepy jokes. It almost made Jess giggle at how much Blitzø was trying not to kick these guys' asses.

"Alright, alright settle down!" Loona called the men off and shooed them back to their seats. "Remember the rule: you can look, but you can't touch! They got some dancing to do!"

Jess kept her eye on the audience as she approached the stage directed to her by one of the other employees. She herself was surprised how utterly clean and straitened out the stage looked and the pole appeared to be polished. The reflection in the shiny metal was how she caught her first glimpse at her target, sitting in the booth directly in front of the stage yet was completely uninterested as he sipped his cocktail.

Razor was a lot more menacing looking than his photo. His dark rose fur shown softly in the light, his piercing amber eyes bore holes in the heads of anyone who made eye contact with him, and his clothes were that of a lumberjack-biker combo. The tattoo that identified him, was clear as day.
But it was the eyes that ate at her, the ominous familiar glow. She began to tense up at the feeling of her memory trying to search where she'd seen those eyes before.

Loona tapped Jessamine's shoulder before she was caught staring.

"Remember, we don't have time to gawk at him." She whispered in the human's ear. "I know you can get him to want a private dance. I've seen how you practiced dancing with Blitzø. You got this."

She didn't want to, but she couldn't help but notice her voice was giving Jess goosebumps. And as much as she wanted to toy with her some more, she had a show to put on.

"For Eddie..." she whispered to herself once again.

The lights dimmed and glittery smoke emerged on the stage. A sultry pink spotlight shined on Jessamine's figure, making her appear as a fuchsia specter in the eyes of the rubbernecking witnesses...and one rubbernecking Hellhound.

The way Jess began her dance, it lit up a fire in my brain. I don't know why but I couldn't take my eyes off the human's agile figure as she twirled and ground against the pole. My face was as red as a rose by the time we ended up making eye contact, her dark irises boring into mine. She stared at me with a vigorous gaze and added an extra sensual hip swish in my direction. Probably just to fuck with me or something.

Jess was so beautiful, so bright, so...so...

Wait, what am I thinking?

This can't be right, this is a human we're talking about. A human with a girlfriend no less!

I suddenly looked over in Razor's direction and noticed he actually had his attention on Jess. His eyes were practically glued to her, but not in a turned on kind of way.

I caught Jess's attention and she followed my gaze. She was startled by the unexpected eye contact with the werewolf demon, but played it cool as she stepped down from the stage and approached him.

"What is she doing?!" Blitzø asked me, fearing we might get caught. I waved him away as I felt a burning twist in my body. Something about that human giving such awareness to the creep was giving me such bad vibes.

It almost felt like...jealousy?

Fuck that!

Or fuck her? What!? SHUT UP BRAIN!😂
