Anything You Want

"Disarm him, cuff him, and drag his ass inside," I said.

Chapter 19

"Ooo, did I miss the excitement?" asked Bill suddenly appearing beside me.

"Yep," I said turning and following our unwanted guest as they dragged him across the floor.

They put him in a chair. He was just coming to. He looked around and then tried to stand up, but one of Bill's men shoved him back down into his seat. He tried to get his hands in front of him.

"Uncuff me or I'll sue every one of you for assault," he shouted.

Everyone around him laughed.

"How are you going to do that?" I asked.

"I know the owner," he said sneering at me.

"Well, the owner is dead."

"Dead? Then I own this place," he said sneering even more.

"Well, it seems he cut you out as he sold the place just a week ago to some woman."

"He had no right! I was his partner."

"Well, he had a clear title to the company and property. What did you have a promise?" I asked. "So, down to business, who are you?"

"I don't have to tell you that," he said smugly.

"Well, we'll just let the police ask those questions when they come to arrest you."

"For what?" He sneered at me again.

"For trespassing, being armed in an establishment that doesn't allow guns, impersonating the husband of one to the women that work here. All felonies in this state."

"You're not the cops?"

"Nope."

"Then why are you wearing guns?"

"Well, we have been hired by the new owner to keep this place safe and the people in it safe from scum like you," I said softly.

Bill chuckled a little. The guy looked over at him with murder in his eyes. Bill just laughed at him.

"All right call the police," I said.

"Wait, I can give you all his contacts for... you know," said the scumbag.

"Okay, shoot," I said.

"Well, not here and not for nothing," he said.

"Oh well, hog tie him, and put him in the storeroom. We'll talk to him later," I said to Bill.

Bill nodded at his guys and they hauled him off to the storeroom.

"You're not going to let that scumbag go, are you?" asked Virginia.

"God no," I said. "But he will think he is."

Virginia smiled at me. I turned and went in search of Carol. I found her in the smaller office sitting and shaking her head.

"I don't even have a list of the employees," she said softly.

"I'll get it," I said going back out on the floor.

I found Virginia quickly.

"Virginia, do you happen to know where Roger kept a list of the employees?"

She giggled crooking her finger at me. I followed her back into Rogers's sick office, to his garish desk, where she opened the file drawer on the right side. She pulled out a file folder. Handing it to me, she smiled.

"So you don't like this office?" she asked.

"Nope. Neither does the boss," I replied turning toward the door.

"But will she change it?"

"Definitely," I replied.

"You know her that well?" asked Virginia as we were at the door to the other office.

"I do. She is, after all is said and done, a client of the company I work for, and as I said earlier, my wife works for her. And you might as well be her first employee interview. Carol, may I introduce you to Virginia. She will tell you her last name or her real name," I said handing the folder to her.

"Come in Virginia," said Carol pleasantly opening the folder I handed her. She smiled as she read the first page. "I am very pleased to meet you, dear."

"I am just as pleased to meet you," replied Virginia taking a seat in the only chair in front of the desk.

I hurried out of there. Out on the floor, I found Peggy sitting with some of the women. I went to her.

"Honey, could you grab a pad and take everyone's order for dinner, the guards too, dear," I said. "And Carol has started her interviews."

"Who did she start with?" Peggy asked.

"Virginia," I replied.

"Good," said Peggy. The rest of the girls within earshot nodded also.

Turning I saw several people behind the bar fixing drinks. I hurried over and Bill met me there.

"Just soda sir," Bill said.

"Great I could use one," I replied. "I'll need three."

One of the guys behind the bar drew three sodas. I picked them up and headed to the office where Carol was. I knocked with my foot. Virginia opened the door backing up quickly and smiling.

"Oh god, yes," said Carol.

I set the three down and picked up mine.

"Thank you, Jeff," said Virginia. I just nodded and left the office, closing the door behind me.

It was time to get rid of the slime I had in the storeroom behind the bar. I grabbed Bill and we walked him to the sick room of Rogers. Once there, I had Bill take off the cuffs. Then we just sat back and listened to him talk his head off. By the time he ran out of breath, we had all the contacts and all the names we could ever want. When Bill put the cuffs on him, he started to cuss up a storm. I just looked at him with an angry face.

"Nobody promised you anything. And not only my phone but also Bill's phone has recorded everything you said. So, it looks to me, not only are you going to jail for criminal trespass, but Human Trafficking also," I said calmly.

Bill dragged his ass out of the office. I followed going to the table in the corner, where I copied all the names and numbers he had given us onto paper. Then I went back to the horrible office and ran it through the fax machine. My phone rang.

"Allen, human trafficking contacts that Roger had," I said.

"Right. I'll get right on it," replied Allen.

It took four days to get things straightened out and to hire new bouncers. I did complete background checks on each of them. Two didn't pass muster and we never called them back for a second interview. Carol decided not to open until Friday. This was fine with me, as I had missed two days of work I had to catch up. Allen wasn't angry, but he did charge me for two vacation days. And on Friday, Peggy showed up right on time. She told me Carol was busy getting things ready for the opening.

Chapter 20

When we arrived at the club, Carol was running around like a lunatic. The doors weren't open yet for the paying customers. Opening night would be at seven o'clock.

Who's your second in command?" I asked Carol. She just looked at me like I was crazy.

"Peggy," she replied.

"She's busy. Now pick one," I almost ordered. "It's Friday."

Her eyes opened wide as she shook her head. I pulled her to me gently.

"Virginia!" she shouted.

Virginia was there within seconds.

"Yes, Carol?"

"I have some business to attend to, would you see to the things on this list while I'm busy, please?" asked Carol.

"Sure, honey," replied Virginia grabbing me and pulling me aside. "Fuck her good youngman, she needs it after this week."

I just scrunched up my face as I turned to follow Carol and Peggy. We were back out on the floor half an hour later to calm, quiet and everyone ready to go.

"Too bad, she's one of your best strippers," I whispered in Carol's ear.

Peggy giggled as she hurried over to Virginia who had her back to us. Peggy whispered in Virginia's ear.

"Ladies, gather round, please," shouted Carol clapping her hands loudly.

The girls gathered around quickly.

"All right, as far as you ladies go, nothing has changed. You have the choice of whether you allow touching. But there will be no penetration allowed. Just as before. I hope you all have a good time tonight as I assume that is why you are here. Any questions?" Carol finally asked.

"Which office will you be in if we need you, ma'am?" asked one of the ladies.

"I'll be right over there at the end of the bar, or at that table in the corner, or in the first office down the hall," said Carol. "Any more questions?"

There were no more questions as the ladies looked at each other.

"All right let's go get ready the doors open in twenty minutes," shouted Carol

There was a dressing room behind stage one and two. It was just a bump out and about six feet wide but fifty feet long. All the women moved to those doors and disappeared. Carol turned, Peggy and me following her, to that table in the corner. Carol slumped into the chair in the corner sighing with relief.

"What are you two smiling at?" she asked Peggy and me.

"You love this kind of thing," I said.

Carol smiled at me nodding as she dropped her chin to her chest.

"But it just kicks your ass," said Peggy.

Carol's head came up fast. She then looked Peggy in the eyes and nodded.

"It sure the fuck does, but I do love being in charge, just like you do young Peggy."

Peggy just giggled. I chuckled.

"You too, young Jeff. You like being in charge, don't you?" asked Carol.

"Sometimes, but most of the time I just like sitting back and watching what I have done in the background while someone else does the dirty work," I said.

Carol smiled at me nodding. Then the music started to play. I looked at my watch it was five to seven.

"Peggy go to the door, you will be the greeter tonight. Don't worry, it will only be for the initial crowd. The other girls will rotate through the night."

Nodding Peggy got up and headed for the door. There were now three bouncers at the door the others were scattered around the place. Outside of the club, there were ten of my men controlling the crowd. When the doors opened, the bouncers were there to check IDs. Peggy stood back from the doors and was there just to smile and say hello. Looking over at the stages, I saw that all the ladies were now on stage, dancing and smiling.

It wasn't long before Peggy was back beside me. All the men were at the bar to get their first drink of the night. The ladies left the stage and were now all back in their dressing room. As I sat there just to keep Carol company, and to protect her, I noticed that Peggy was gone. Looking around I saw her climbing the stairs to the closest stage and ducking back into the dressing area. I smiled and shook my head at the same time.

"Don't you want her too?" asked Carol.

"It's her choice, yet I do want to see her dancing up on that stage," I replied looking a Carol.

"You know she has been practicing every day when you weren't here. She's pretty good. Virginia and several other ladies have been teaching her backstage when you were here."

"I was wondering where she was a lot of the time. I just assumed you had her doing something."

"I did, I had my newest employee learning to dance and also learning the business. Your wife is very, very smart," said Carol.

"I know, that's the main reason I asked her to marry me. She is also very, very sexy, the other reason I asked her to marry me," I said smiling at Carol.

Carol just smiled at me as she watched everywhere. Looking back out on the floor, I saw guys hustling to get some seats at the stages. Each lady danced on each stage twice. So that meant Peggy would be dancing four times tonight. I smiled again at the thought of my wife, taking her clothes off in front of a room full of horny men.

Carol chuckled as the music shut off and the stages went dark. Then the rest of the lights in the place dimmed. Music started and a flood light came on with a sexy woman standing in the center. It was Peggy. I knew she was bold and brash, but going first on opening night? That took guts. She was dressed, in a blue sequined formal dress. It had a very low neckline. She also wore long white gloves and six-inch stiletto heels. Her hair piled up on top of her head in a large beehive. She looked beautiful.

"What do you think? She had me buy that dress special," said Carol.

"She's beautiful," I said.

The guys at the stage were going wild as she started to strut around the stage. She was smiling at them all.

"What else is she wearing under that dress?" I asked.

"Nothing but a pair of panties the same color as the dress," replied Carol laughing.

I continued to watch my wife dance around the stage. When the song changed, she dropped the dress, picked it up, and danced to the back of the stage, where she dropped it. The panties she had on were a thong. All the men started to whistle at her when they saw her lovely ass. I sighed at the sight of her tight beautiful ass. Turning back to the front of the stage, she started dancing toward the horny men. When a guy climbed up on the stage and started to head toward her, a bouncer was there right behind him. Peggy shook her head and the bouncer just stopped in his tracks. As the stranger came within touching distance, Peggy just smiled at him as he reached for her. Then he was on the floor, her heel pressed against his neck. Everyone gasped then they cheered. The bouncer came forward and dragged the asshole off the stage and out the door.

The guys were still hooting and hollering at Peggy. Some were now waving dollar bills in the air. She danced around the stage stopping in front of the men with bills. She grabbed the bill and squatted down in front of the guy. Spread her legs and shook her tits. As he reached out to touch her, she would back away and dance to the next guy. The second song ended, and Peggy slipped the panties off her sexy body. She had shaved. Her pussy was now bald.

"I did that to her," said Carol.

I groaned at that information, yet didn't take my eyes off of my beautiful wife as she danced around the stage naked. She still wore the gloves, but I don't think any of the men minded. She was stuffing her tips in them. Then a guy got smart and waved a ten spot at her. She smiled, dancing right over to him. She squatted down close to him as she took the ten spot. He reached right for her naked pussy. I could see Peggy groan. As he went to slip a finger into her, she jumped up dancing away shaking her finger at him. Now there were a lot of tens waving around. Peggy danced for each of them, allowing each of them to touch her boobs or her pussy and in one case her ass. When the last song of her set ended, Peggy walked to the middle of the stage and stood with her hands in the air, legs spread, and a smile on her face. She turned heading to the back of the stage where she picked up her panties and dress and was out of sight.

"She was pretty good at that," said Carol.

"She was beautiful," I groaned.

The rest of the night went pretty well. It was actually a short night, so Peggy only danced twice. Carol did go to her office after a while. I went with her, even though she told me to stay. After a few minutes of searching the small office, she shook her head and headed to the big office.

"Are you sure?" I asked following her.

"Yes. There are documents that I need that are probably here," she replied opening the door.

Reaching in, she turned the lights on. Again, we both groaned at the hideous decorations.

"Where did Virginia get the employee list?" Carol asked.

"From the upper right-hand drawer," I replied.

She went to the desk and pulled the drawer open. She started pulling out files. As she placed them on the top of the desk, I could read the name on the front of them. They were the files of each employee who worked here under Roger. Carol then went through all the other drawers in the desk except for one.

"Shit, this one is locked!" she said.

I went around to the drawer in question, but it was a cheap lock. Looking around I saw a crowbar in the corner. What Roger had a crowbar in the corner for I didn't want to know. I grabbed it and popped the drawer open. Sitting there, staring me in the face was a neatly wrapped pile of money.

"Wow," said Carol.

"Probably money he was skimming," I said.

Under the money was a set of books. Two sets of them. One with a green cover and one with a red cover.

"Yep, he was skimming from the business," I said holding up the two sets of books.

"Crap!" said Carol.

"Don't worry, my company can take care of this. Now, you never saw this money, and neither did I. You found the dual set of books and brought them to me. That's what my story will be also. I showed you where the employee files were and after searching all the drawers, you found the books. Clear?

"Yes. Oh, god, I'm not a very good liar," she said softly.

"Don't worry, leave it to me. You just nod as I do the talking."

"When?" she asked.

"Monday morning," I replied.

"Okay, what do I do with the money?" she asked.

I looked around the office. I found a big enough satchel to hold the money. I put the money in the satchel closed it and put it by the door.

"Is there anything else you need to do in here Carol?" I asked.

"Not right now. Why don't we get the hell out of this hideous place?"

Chapter 21

Carol and I were back at the table in the corner. Peggy had joined us. She was dressed conservatively.

"I'm done for the night. You missed my second dance," she said looking at the pile of file folders and ledger books in front of Carol. "What are those?"

"None of your business," I scolded.

"Well, I never," said Peggy giggling.

Then one of my men came in the door and over to the table we sat at. I was staring at the stages until he turned toward me and spotted Peggy sitting there smiling at him.

"Sir, there are three... thugs outside who want to see Roger," he said.

I shook my head. Looking up at the security guy, I just nodded as I stood up.

"No, you stay here. Your job is to guard these two women and the paperwork on the table and under it," I said.

"Yes, sir," he replied and moved to the side of the table and stood looking everywhere at once.

I headed out to see who hadn't heard that Roger was dead. The bouncer at the door opened it for me. Three goons were standing about ten feet from the door. I just shook my head as I approached them.

"I said I wanted to talk to Roger," the one in the middle shouted.

"Bill?" I asked.

"I told him," replied Bill.

"Look, Roger doesn't work here anymore, nor does he own this place anymore. If you want to talk to him, try the city morgue," I said.

"He would never sell this place."

"Why, because he knows what would happen to him? He's dead, how do I make you understand that?" I asked chuckling.

"Are you the new owner?" he asked.

"No, I work for a company that she hired to see things run smoothly here. Right now things are not running smoothly, so if you will be kind enough to leave, then things can get back to running smoothly," I said watching the

goon's face.

He just stood there looking through me. I started to chuckle, he just got angrier. As he took a step toward me, he quickly bent over and fell face-first to the concrete. The other two started to move yet couldn't. Not with guns in their face and guts.

"Okay, I guess we'll do this the hard way," I said as my men searched the three goons.

The three stood up, pushed against the wall, and searched. I just looked them up and down as my men searched them. They each were carrying a gun, apiece.

"This is now a law-abiding establishment. You can tell your boss that the largest, richest, company in the world now owns it. And I will know what your bosses are doing before you do. Every man you see here is tougher, stronger, and smarter than you or your bosses. You tell him Saint Ives said this place is under his protection," I told them.

At the mention of Saint Ives, the three of them gasped and were startled. Not many people knew who he was, yet these three seemed at least to know the name.

"Now get out of here or I will call the police and charge you with trespass, criminal trespass."

"What about our..."

"They will be destroyed," I said.

They all looked angry, as we allowed the men to leave. Then Bill was beside me.

"Who the hell is Saint Ives?" he asked.

"Never ask that question again, Bill," I replied with anger in my voice.

"Right. Sorry, sir."

"It's Jeff, Bill," I said smiling. "If you must know, you can ask your boss."

"I... no, that's okay. I know there are things I should never know about," he replied.
