Introduction
Malcolm Balogun is a Man of God in search of a woman to make his wife. He is moved by the Spirit to go to America where his wife awaits him, and when he finds her, he's shocked to discover that she is a stripper and a non-believer.
He makes it his mission to bring her to the side of Light, but the temptations of her restless spirit may just be his undoing. However, God has a plan for them as he does all his children.
He took one hand and moved it around my thigh and within the open bottom of my dress. While he did this, he never once broke eye contact; it was almost like his eyes were the reason I couldn't move, the reason I couldn't breathe, the reason I didn't want to leave, the bait that had me drowning and the stimulant that made my libido rise. My throat was so parched and dry, but there was nothing dry about the kitty between my legs. His hand began to slide up this time, slowly approaching my throbbing vagina, filling me with anticipation and an insatiable need to feel him touch me down there.
Chapter 1
Cherry's POV…
You'll find today in many parts of the world that women claim that being strippers or hookers or prostitutes or porn stars, is a form of sexual liberation and independence. They say that it's a way of embracing their womanhood and finding pride in the power of their flesh and, somehow, a lot of women today see this as honest work that should be done without an atom of shame.
Hi there, I go by Cherry 🍒 and I'm a stripper, and I just want to tell you that what all of these women say about sexual liberation is a pile of bullshit. Most women are not doing these kinds of jobs because they feel it's a way of expressing their artistic side. Most women are not doing these kinds of jobs to embrace their sexuality in a manner that is decent or upright. Bitches are doing these jobs because they like it. They love the attention they get from wealthy men and women, they love the sex and importantly, they love the money.
Now don't get me wrong, not all of us are as promiscuous as others, and I'm one of such people. As I said, I am a stripper, but I don't go around sleeping with all of my clients; only the ones I try to date. I just dance for them and take their money.
Unfortunately, some of the girls I work with that strip also entertain, and it caused me a few problems when I first started stripping, because a lot of men were disrespectful and treated me like a whore. It took a little while, but Cookie set those guys straight and, as I grew in the business, men knew to keep their dicks to themselves if I didn't ask for it.
Now, I could have done something else with my life, something a little more decent and respectable and, I could also give you a sob story about how my stepdad was an abuser or how my mum didn't really care about me, which was why I joined the wrong company and got into this business, but that's all a pile of crap.
The truth is, I was always a wild one, even as a little girl, and when I became a teenager, boy did I rebel? Late-night partying, drinking, drugs, sex, multiple boyfriends, you name it! I did all of that, but at some point, I grew up. I became an adult and I realized that I could turn what I do for fun into something that was actually profitable to me and so, I left my little hometown and ventured out into the world to find myself.
I arrived in good old New York and, after a few months of scraping the gutter trying to make ends meet, I met my helper and the most charming and smartest woman I've ever known; Cookie.
Cookie was the owner of one of the most frequented strip clubs in all of New York that she named "Sweet Cookies Swinging" and when she first saw me, she thought I had the potential to be one of her best employees and so, she offered me a job. I didn't hesitate! I took that job immediately after she offered it and I've had absolutely no regrets ever since.
Life has been good and business has been booming. Once a small town girl, now a woman of the world making my own money, making my own rules and living the way that I want. I don't regret the direction my life headed right from when I was a child to when I became a woman. It was a hard and long journey but I finally made it to the promised land. And now, I have hundreds of wealthy men who come to the strip club every Saturday just to see my show and after they leave, I become thousands of dollars richer than I was when the day started.
In fact, I'm about to perform right now, and you're more than welcome to watch, but, don't come empty-handed! Make sure your pockets are filled with cash because Cherry doesn't dance for free.
"And now, the moment you have all been waiting for. Please, give a big hand for the main event of the evening; the dazzling blonde queen of the pole, the sexy firecracker that gets your motor running, the girl in the skirt, Miss Cherry,"
Every time I hear Marcus's voice echo through the speakers as he introduces me to the crowd, I'm filled with so much vigour and excitement. Being born beautiful is a gift that many women receive but aren't smart enough to utilize to their benefit. As for me, I knew what I had, and I wasn't afraid to shake it in front of the world.
I walked out on the stage, wearing an armless white bra and the shortest schoolgirl skirt you'll ever see; it was more of a headband really. My heels were high and pointy and my hair was done old-school-like, giving Marilyn Monroe vibes because she was my idol but, I considered myself more of a sexual icon than she ever was. Sorry, Marilyn! You had your time in the spotlight and now, it's my time to shine, girl.
As soon as the spotlight hit my face, the packed house went nuts for me and the bills began to fly before I even began my dance. I blew my admirers a kiss and grabbed what was to me as important a tool as Picasso's brush was to him; my pole.
The DJ began to play one of the songs that I wrote and recorded myself. Yeah, I sing, and I only ever dance to my own music. It's another one of my many talents, but nothing beats what I do on the strip pole.
My routine tonight was an overlay of multiple tricks and moves that required years of knowledge and mastery. I've been stripping since I was eighteen, so I was kind of a master of the pole. I grabbed that pole and I let my music transport me to another realm where the most important things that existed were the sexual parts of a woman. It always amazes me how easily I could drive men nuts with what I do, how I could control them, and today was not any different. They were practically drooling all over my stage, and at that point in their lives, only I mattered to them and I loved having that power.
Every single man at the show let the bills rain all over me that night. Even the richest of my clients got to their feet to strap their offerings to my panties and they all wanted me to never get off the pole. They all worshipped me. All but one particular man. A black man was seated up front. He wasn't applauding and neither was he spraying his money on me. He wasn't going crazy like the others, but he was certainly watching.
I've had men gawk at me with hunger and lust many times before, and I knew how to deal with it but, there was something different about the way this man was staring at me, something predatory and intimidating and, for the first time in a long time, I felt a little uncomfortable by a man's eyes.
He never once blinked, and I started to become hypnotized by him, which wasn't normal, because I usually did the hypnotizing whenever I was on that stage. It was almost a relief to hear my song come to an end because I just couldn't stand his eyes on me any longer.
"Give it up for Miss Cherry!"
Marcus announced me off the stage and I blew a kiss to my admirers and walked out through the back and as I walked away, I could still feel his eyes brandishing my backside with its piercing gaze. I turned around as I walked and, truly, he was still watching me go.
I made it backstage to where the other girls were and I was finally able to catch my breath. I don't know why that man made me so…tense and hot, but he did. That much was for certain. I could feel my skin burning up and my nipples were harder than they'd ever been. It took me a while to get a hold of myself.
"Nice work, Cherry! Flawless performance as usual, but I kinda noticed that you were a little off in the end there,"
I hadn't even heard Cookie walk up to me. That was how shook up I was.
"Was I? I didn't realize."
"Well, it's a good thing your fans are a bunch of horny men who didn't notice. Whatever got you spook, take care of it before your next show, okay?"
"Sure thing, Cook," I said and walked away from her.

The CEO's Unspoken Love
Before I could answer, he moved closer, suddenly looming over me, his face inches from mine. I felt my breath caught, my lips parting in surprise.
"Then this is the price for speaking ill of me to others," he murmured, nipping my lower lip before claiming my mouth in a real kiss. It began as punishment but quickly transformed into something else entirely as I responded, my initial rigidity melting into compliance, then active participation.
My breathing accelerated, small sounds escaping my throat as he explored my body. His touches were both punishment and pleasure, drawing shudders from me that I thought he felt reverberating through his own body.

Pregnant by My Husband's Rival Alpha
Those words should have destroyed me, but the truth was worse: I'd been used as a broodmare by the man who swore to love me, set up in a hotel room with a stranger because My husband Alexander Cross couldn't father children himself, and now I carried the secret babies of Damon Lester—the most powerful and dangerous Alpha in San Loris—while my own family replaced me with the daughter they'd always wanted. But when that same stranger's doctor appeared at my door, when twenty million dollars exchanged hands over a fake perfume bearing my secret identity, and when Damon's gray eyes locked onto mine with recognition I couldn't afford, I realized my carefully hidden life as the legendary perfumer Vera was colliding with a pregnancy that could cost me everything.
Could I protect my babies from the husband plotting my death, hide my true identity from the Alpha who's been hunting me for years, and reclaim the freedom I'd buried along with my dreams—even if it means standing alone against the wolves who see me as nothing more than a womb to be used and discarded?
Pawn of the Starless God
Instead, a god found me.
One moment, I was bleeding beneath the neon glow of the city, my life slipping through my fingers. The next, a glowing blue screen appeared before my eyes, offering me a choice that was never really a choice at all.
Accept the Summoner’s Mark. Or die.
Now I belong to the Death Game — a brutal cosmic system where ordinary people are turned into Players, thrown into impossible missions, and forced to survive horrors designed for the amusement of gods.
Every trial has rules.
Every monster has a weakness.
Every victory comes with a reward.
And every reward makes me less human.
My name is Nerissa Valehart, and I refuse to be anyone’s pawn.
But surviving the Game means trusting the one man everyone warns me to fear.
Veyren Ashford is ruthless, powerful, and dangerously beautiful — a veteran Player with blood on his hands and secrets in his soul. He says attachment will get me killed. He says love is a weakness the Game always punishes.
Yet when death comes for me, Veyren is the one standing between us.
In a world where gods gamble with mortal lives, monsters hunt from the shadows, and desire may be the deadliest weakness of all, I have only one goal:
Survive long enough to cross the board.
And make the Starless God regret choosing me..............
