Chapter 1 - SACRIFICE

At the Lobby of the Grand Hill Hotel, Jade stood donned in a Red sexy, skimpy, long-sleeved gown, which she paired with a black strap heel, a black clutch and a pair of dropping earrings which matched perfectly with her silver bracelet. Her makeup was mild and natural, but she was the most beautiful girl at the hotel tonight.

She frantically paced about the lobby as she tried making up her mind to go in.

Beads of sweat broke out on her forehead as she kept pacing.

She was too lost in her thoughts to hear the guys whistling at her. Her actions tonight will either mar or make her...She desperately needed a sign to tell her what to do.

Jade jerked back to reality when her phone rang. She sighed deeply when she saw who was calling; this wasn't the sign she needed. Maybe her mind was already made up. She reluctantly picked the call after its first ring.

"Jade, you'd better return home. I can tell you he isn't worth it. Don't do what will destroy you for good," Her mother pleaded over the phone.

"Mother", She called in a quiet and low voice. Why was her mother making things difficult for her? Yes, she asked for a sign. Isn't this a good one?

"I know you love him, but you can't ruin your life for him. Jade, please listen to mother, okay" Her mother continued pleading with a teary voice.

"Mother, I have to save him. I'm sorry," Jade told her as her eyes turned misty with tears.

"If you dare, I'll break all ties with you. Your father will roll in his grave at your foolishness," She warned as she raised her voice. Maybe hopefully, threats might work.

"I'm sorry, mother", Jade apologized before hanging up.

Her phone beeped suddenly, and she opened it to see a text from Cale. It read ...

'Save me, Jade, you're all I have...I love you.'

She stared at the message for a couple of minutes. She has to do this; it's for the man she loves.

She put her phone back into her purse, took a deep breath to calm her nerves as she turned and walked towards the elevator with her shoulders squared.

If this sacrifice would save her love, then she'd gladly do it.

Pop music was blaring at the underground club of the grand Hills hotel. This was the most exquisite and famous club for the rich young heirs and heiresses in City Y. A place where one per cent of the one per cent indulged their selves in all form of activities.

Ever in need of a club providing male and female bodily services, here it was.

Jade walked into the club, which was reeking alcohol and other stuff she couldn't identify. She had almost turned around at this point as her heart began to thump hard against her chest.

Her head felt heavy at the sound of loud music wafting from the huge speakers.

She shook her head to discard every thought of cowardice as her grip over her clutch tightened.

She took slow steps as she gently pushed through the crowd and walked towards the bar.

"Hey! I need 3 shots of Aunt Roberta," She yelled to the bartender as the music was loud. She sat down on one of the high stools at the bar as she scanned her eyes through the club.

"Here," the bartender said as he served her order.

She turned and flashed the bartender a small smile before gulping down a glass of Aunt Roberta.

"You might want to go easy...on that", The bartender advised as Jade dropped the first glass and picked up another. She gulped all three glasses at a go.

"What?" She asked. She had missed what he said.

"Never mind," He told her, yelling across the counter so she could hear him.

"Hey, can you point me in the direction of a rich heir with lots of money to spend?" She asked the bartender, who took a proper look at her. He wasn't surprised by her question because he heard it every other day. He was tempted to reprimand her and advise her to go back home because she looked too innocent, even though she was dressed to look the part. He had worked here long enough to tell she didn't belong there. But that wasn't his business.

His eyes scanned through the club and gazed in a particular direction when his eyes found a suitable target seated at the VIP lounge just above the dance floor. Jade followed his gaze and asked, "Him?" as she pointed her chin at the person they were both looking at.

"Yes. If you get him, consider it your lucky day," He told her.

Jade looked at her target for a good few minutes before stepping down from her stool. She took deep breaths to calm her not so nervous self, thanks to Aunt Roberta.

"Thank you," She said with a smile as she paid him and sauntered to her target.

She slowly approached him as she looked at him thoroughly. She was satisfied with his appearance; he definitely looked filthy rich...just the right person she needs.

"Hey", She greeted with a nervous smile when his hazel brown eyes met with hers.

"I heard you had money to spend, and I'm just in need of that cash. I'll pay with my virginity. If you're not pleased with me, I will let you go... I'll consider it my bad day. Here's a medical report, I'm disease-free. What do you say?" She said as she looked at him anxiously, with an envelope in hand.
