You were standing in front of the strip club. The one your best friend Hyejin was working at, she had told you they were in need of a bartender and she thought you would be a good fit in the establishment. So not thinking twice you told her to set up an interview.. but now you were here in the evening and we'll just say you were less than enthusiastic. It was a bit chilly outside but that was to be expected since it was fall after all. The rustle of the leaves almost ominously telling you a hidden secret. The streets were empty and there only stood you.

You looked at the building scratching your head wondering if you had gotten the right address. The building was old with certain water stains making their mark on the building. . The black tinted windows from the outside letting everyone know that if they wanted some free show. Then they had to cough up the money to see it. You could see valet parking on the other side of the building and an alleyway which was a bit dark if not entirely. The location of the club was probably what shocked you the most; it was in a good area where a lot and literally a lot of businesses were located. You had been expecting something in a bad area where you had to run for your life but no, you were shocked. You had been standing in this same spot looking at the building for a good 15 minutes because of your nerves.

You mustered all your courage and crossed the street, Walking up to the double doors to the front of the establishment. You wondered if maybe you should go home. You have worked at other places as a bartender and you knew you could do it but working at a strip club would be new. Would these guys think that it would be ok to touch you? What were you to expect when walking in into something that was surrounded by the mafia and was all about sex, drugs, alcohol and power.

Your nerves were getting the best of you and right now you definitely were not feeling confident about this whole gig. But it's not like you have another option: your funds were running low and your rent was due in a couple of days. You have to do this right now and wow the owners. From what you were told by Hyejin, there are two owners to the club. Yoongi and Namjoon. She had said not to be fooled by their good looks because they are vicious and savage, when it comes to their establishment. The Strip club hides their drug trafficking, money laundering, sex exploitation and hits out to other people. Plus some other little hidden secrets like paying off certain government officials and even higher hierarchy like governors and who knows who else for that matter. She said the baddest of the bad come there and even the richest of the rich and the slimiest of the bunch.

She gave you some information on Yoongi and Namjoon, the club owners. She said both were young in their mid twenties and both were best friends since childhood since their parents were partners in the underworld, growing up you couldn't see one without the other. When they got older and were able to run the business of their fathers that's exactly what they did, both boys were great fighters with great leadership skills and if one was weak in one point the other would pick it up as the strongest one. In the club Yoongi was the financial aspect of the club while Namjoon was the brains of the operations . And with both trusting each other their club was the hottest spot in town when it came to strippers and "other activities" and that was all she could give you because if they found out she even told you half of what she knew they would have her killed.

When she told you all of this you sat in her bed looking out of the window and almost telling her she was crazy to put you in a situation like this one but then again you were short in cash and she was looking out like a bestie would, so technically you really couldn't be mad right?

With all the courage you had you opened one of the double doors and walked in. The club was eerily quiet and you felt so out of place. All you wanted to do was run out of the same door you just came from. You looked around for any signs of life but nothing. You walked deeper into the main room where there were some booths and tables. The stage was lifted up off the ground a bit and was decorated with eight silver poles, four on the center, two on the left side and two on the right. There is a royal blue velvet curtain as the background with silver hanging stars and crystals, the floor to the stage was made of blue crystals with shimmer inside under the neon lights, it looks like the ocean but flat and calm. You stood there like a little kid, marveling at everything the stage had. It was beautifully decorated. you wondered if they pay good with all the details they put on just the stage alone. The rest of the club had low hanging star lights, the wall all decorated with the same curtains of the stage. It looked clean and freshly vacuumed. The booths were decorated with a white and black floral arrangement and the tables were just like the stage. The booth were separated by a silver railing and there were steps that lead up to the booths that said reserved or VIP *Wow, this is really detailed* you thought You've never been in a strip club, so everything seemed so new and unworldly. Fascinating even. Are all strip clubs this fancy looking? You asked yourself
