"So what you wanna do? Wanna have a fun time or what? I said to a fine ass light skin man in a Black Escalade on 4th Street and Vanity drive. My name is Avanna but you can call me Ava and I work at the best Club/brothel in Manhattan, New York called, the Pink Diamond. Yeah that's right, I am a hooker. All my life I've been a hustler and fend for myself. My Mom kicked me out at 14 and I've been in the streets ever since. I've been out here for a year and I am 15 now. Don't judge me though, I gotta make bank or I'll die out hear.
"Yo Ma, you hear me!?" The stranger yelled towards me. "I said I'm gonna pass. You look like a baby. Where's ya parents at?" He continued. I quickly snapped in my drug induced daydream as my blood boiled at this mans remark. "Yo who da FUCK are you calling a baby. I'm 18 dip shit" I said in my bad bitch voice. Puerto Rican blood in my black body and I got a italian sized temper. My New York accent runs thick when I'm mad. "Da fuck outta here. Look like you need to go back to school. You too young to be out in the streets, Ma. Gonna take a hard pass." He said before driving off. "Well fuck you then, Broke Nigga!" I yelled towards the fading truck going down 4th street. "Watch ya mouth, White girl!" A stranger yelled towards me on the corner across from me. "Mind ya Fuckin business. I ain't white either." I yelled back. I know I said I was a hooker but never said I was a good one. I don't make much money but I do contribute to my Daddy. No, I don't mean my father. I mean my Pimp, Big Daddy Darcy. He's my pimp and protects me with only a phone call away or if i text him, 10-17. He's always 4 blocks away.
I began walking towards Daddy Darcy's car which was a 1970 Cadillac Deville with white paint and red leather interior. I knew I haven't made much money but I did make bank on something. I end up with 350 bucks. I owe him 7000 dollars and I have 6350 left to pay. As I approached his car he rolled down the front passenger window and leaned towards me. He was dark skinned with dark brown eyes, Chiseled jaw and a pointy chin. He was slender but muscular. His hair was slicked back. "What the fuck you want?" Daddy Darcy said to me while I stood and bent down. "I-I'm done for the day, Daddy" I stammered towards him. I knew what I made won't satisfy him and I was gonna get yelled at or worse. "How much did you make?" He snapped towards me. "I only made 350 and People won't bite cause they think I'm too young. Look I'm cold and tired and this shit is kicking my ass. Can we go home, Daddy? Please?" I whined while fidgeting cause my feet were hurting in these high heels. "Bitch, You ain't sell shit. What the fuck are you doing out here? Do you wanna stay with me or you wanna get back in the streets with no food or water!?. Get out there and make some Fucking money or I'm gonna turn you loose. Get the stepping" Daddy continued to snapped at me as if I ruined his whole night. I walked away in tears cause I didn't wanna hear nothing else from him. I hated when he yelled at me and most importantly, I hated to disappoint Darcy at all cost. "Get back here, Bitch! I ain't done with you." Darcy yelled towards me while honking the horn aggressively. I stopped and turned around looking at him with eyes full of tears. "What now? You told me what I need to do. Ima get this money so I can go home?" I snapped with a shaky tone in my voice. I was frustrated and I didn't know how I was gonna make this money at all. "Come here, Ma!." Darcy signaled towards him. His tone was calm and loving. I walked back towards his car and he opened the front passenger door to let me in. "I got a job for you. There's a nigga named Lewis Ferguson and he need a bitch to make him look good at his club. Its called, The Demon's Oath. He's paying 5000 just to sit there and look pretty. If you do the job, I'll let you off of your debt deal?" Darcy offered as I entered the car. "You mean it, Daddy?" I asked cautiously as I knew at times, Darcy didn't go by his word. "Bitch, Do I look like I'm kidding around?" He snapped towards me once again. "Aight, I'll do it then. But no funny business. Take me to a gas station I gotta piss." I ordered. I knew he was gonna do it.
While Darcy drove towards the gas station on 4th and Dresdan Ave, I got a text message and it was my momma.
Momma: Where the fuck you at?
Me: I'm at shelter. Why do you care?
Mama: I need you to come home, Ava. Your Father and I miss you and we regret sending you out on the streets. i-It's just you were out of control. I am worried about you. Are your still seeing that Darcy guy?
Me: Whatever I am doing is my business, so stay out of it. You choose to judge him and kick me out. Deal with it.
After I replied to that last text, I did what I had to do and I jet back to Darcy's car. Had to admit that I was getting dizzy from the drugs I was taking and it was taking its toll. "Daddy, After this, Ima need about a few days off. I need a break." I warned Daddy Darcy as he scoffed at my request. "If you work hard tonight then I'll think about.." Darcy replied while driving off to Brooklyn, New York towards The Demon's Oath. It took 4 hours before we made it there and the sun was about to rise. I looked at my phone and the time read 5:36 am and it was starting to get cold. The weather app said it was 36 degrees on a Monday. If i was still at my parents house, I would be getting ready for school. Man, I miss my friends Annah and Shakira. It wasn't too long before we made it to this ominous looking club with purple neon lights and a Demon head on a sign that read "Demon's Oath". We stopped in a empty parking lot and Daddy Darcy looked at me with a smirk. "Now, Work that shit til you can't no more. Whatever you do, Do not turn any tricks in here. you are already getting paid money. You don't need extra cash got it?" He ordered towards me. I just nodded at him a concern look on my face. I opened the door and exited his car. "Hey, I mean it. I'll be out here. Call me or text me the code and I'll be there. Make that money boo!!" He cheered on as I turn from him and walked towards the club.
As I arrived to the front door, I saw two tall Husky looking bouncers standing at the door with a smirk on their faces. They both wore glasses and wore black double breasted suits with shiny Stacy Adams dress shoes. "How may I help you ma?" one Bouncer asked. "I'm here to see Lewis Ferguson for a escort job. " I replied with a smile on my face. Despite being homeless and living in a brothel, Darcy makes sure I am kept at tip top shape. from my hair all the way to my toes. The Bouncers moved to the side and opened the door and said "Welcome to the Demon's Oath, where your desires are fulfilled but at a cost."
I had entered the building and the interior had demonic painting and statues with a red interior. I went through another door and a white male in a black business suit and a red tie stood in from me . "Welcome to the Demon's Oath, I am Lewis Stan Ferguson and I own this place." I looked around and saw no one in the club. It seemed closed at the moment. "Come to my office. Ladies first" He said while stepping aside to let me in. "So, You are in debt?" Lewis said while opening his door to his office. As I entered his office, There was a Upside down cross on his back wall near his desk. The imagery in this club were terrifying. "Yeah, I owe him at least--" I began to say before I was interrupted by Lewis. "You owe him 6000 thousand, huh?" He said as hit poured a drink. I was taken aback cause I had no idea how he knew my debt with Darcy. "Y-yeah. But how did you know I owe him money?" I asked in a confusing manner. I was starting to get scared that I may have made a huge mistake and grabbed my phone to text Darcy but I had no signal. "What's wrong, Ava? Scared? Gonna text "Big" Daddy Darcy? Sorry, No reception!" He said with a chuckle. "Listen to my offer, Ava dearest!!" He continued. "Join me and I'll correct your life. change everything from your relationships to your money issue. if you signed this contract!" He said as he slammed a single piece of paper on his desk.
"Leave Darcy and turn your life around" He ordered towards me. I didn't know what expect but if it means I can pay off my debts, Then so be it. I signed the contract using a pen with red ink. But it didn't look like ink. I think it was blood. there was a iron smell like blood. suddenly, Lewis smiled and rubbed his hands together. "That's a good girl. your job starts immediately." He said with a smirk and I suddenly felt faint and dizzy. The room darkened around me as i fell over onto the floor. "You just signed over your soul Ava. You took the Demon's Oath. Welcome to hell!!!" Lewis said while walking towards me and stood over me. Then all of a sudden, Everything went black.
