Kingsley Creed. The next morning.

The next day rolled in quickly. The sun shines through the window filling the room with sunlight. The sun beamed down on Kingsley until she woke up.

Her eyes flutters open and her vision was unclear. She stretched out in the bed and yawned. She rubbed her eyes and opened them.

Her eyes scanned the room big beautiful room. She frowned and sat up. "Oh shit!" She said getting up. "Who the did I go home with?"

She looked around for her purse. Her purse, phone and shoes were gone. She paused hearing the door open. She looked up seeing Asia peaking in through the crack.

"Asia where the fuck are we?" She asked. "What did you get us into?"

"I didn't do anything. I'm just confused as you are." She said. "This ain't the hotel."

"I know so who the fuck did we go home with?" Kingsley asks.

"I don't know but we need to get out of here. I just walked around her. Kingsley this is a big ass house. I was walking in each room. It's girls in almost each room." She said.

"Do you have your phone?" Kingsley asked.

"No. Do you?" She asked.

"No it's gone and my purse and shoes." She told her.

"Well don't worry about it we can always get another phone and shoes. Let's just go." Asia told her.

The girls walked out the room quietly roaming the halls until they found stairs.

They walked down the stairs then stopped hearing voices. "Lux impressed me yesterday. She usually would be awkward as shit."

"Me too. I think Nay talked to her or some shit they be doing."

"She was awkward because she was new."

Asia nudged Kingsley and pointed to the door. "We need to run." She mouthed.

Kingsley nodded her head. Once Asia singled for them to run. They sprinted to the front door and ran out the door.

Only to be stopped by more guys walking in. Asia stopped runnning as she became faced to face with a dark skin guy that terrified her. Kingsley who was dodging everyone who was trying to grab her kept running.

One of the guys stuck they're foot out as Kingsley was coming him way. He made sure he tripped her before picking her up.

"What? You gonna sit here and stare at me?" The dude asked. "Go in the house."

She did as he said only because he was intimidating to her. Kingsley on the other half who wasn't having it. She dug her nail into the guys skin and bites him. He drops her on her back on accident knocking the wind outta her. He picked her up as took her inside.

Kingsley and Asia who were now tied to chair sat in-front of a brown skin man listening to him talk. Kingsley stared at everyone with her eyes that kinda made people uncomfortable.

"Aye Aye!" Knox snapped his fingers in Kingsley face. "You hearing me?"

"Yes I hear your bull shit." She said.

"Ok I see your feisty." He said looking her up and down. "And by the way I should kick your ass for biting me. Big ass teeth. Like I was saying." He leaned on his desk. "I run this house. I keep you bitches in check. Yall will be staying here. This is your new home-"

"Excuse me? Staying here? New home? My home is back in Texas." Asia said.

Knox tilted her head. "Y'all ain't from here?" He asked.

"No." Both of the girls said.

"Damn." He said. "Oh well this still your home. Get used to it. Y'all are Dolls now. Welcome to Doll Residencey."

Kingsley busted out laughing. "You must've lost your rabbit ass mind thinking we are staying here. We are expected to be home Thursday."

"And what that got to do with me?" He asked

"Everything." They both said making all the men in the room laugh.

"How long y'all known each other? Y'all best friends?" He asked.

"Stop trying to get off the subject. For one this is kidnapping. We have families that's expecting us to be home and if we don't show up law enforcement gets involved." She said

"Ok?" He said. "Your point? See what you don't know is we have have both your phones. He got into both of them texting every single person in your contact list saying you both weren't coming back home and it's nothing major." He said.

"My Momma ain't believing that shit." Asia said.

"Her response said other wise." He told her.

"So this is what you disgusting ass men do all day everyday. Prey on women then kidnap them." Kingsley asked

"Only if Dandre say so." He said.

"Dandre?" Kingsley asked.

"Yea apparently he met y'all at the hotel." He said. "He actually told me about you two."

Asia scoffed. "This is bullshit. So those other girls. You did the same to them too?" She asked.

"To a couple some actually signs up to do this." He told her. "Which leads me to the next thing. All Dolls are in the house by 10 pm. If not they're are consequences. You get in trouble 5 times you see boss. You try to escape and leave you get punishment. If you fight with the other Dolls both of you get in trouble. I will make you clean the whole house which will take hours. Lastly you will do your part and make your money if I have to tell you more than once to get on stage and you do you get punished and sent to boss."

"Oh hell nah is this some prostitution shit!" Kingsley asked.

"Nah nah nah. You are Doll we don't do none of that here. You are dancers." He said. "That club was as last night. Yea that's where you'll be making your money. Dancing on a pole."

"No." Kingsley told him.

"You don't have a choice." He told her. "You either do it or imma send your ass to our boss and he ain't to friendly." He said.

"Well I want to speak to the 'boss' then." She said.

"Can't. He doesn't associate with Dolls unless there a problem plus he ain't here. He lives in New York." He said. "Next thing is I do allow you girls to go out. 2-3 people at a time. You will have security with you. Big security too so don't even think about trying to run off. I give new girls time to adjust before throwing you out on stage. You will take a class to learn new tricks. You will dance. You will keep this money flowing."

"I'm not doing shit nor am I'm taking order from a nigga that stands 5'7." Kingsley said making a couple people laugh.

Knox squinted his eyes at her. "I see we gonna have a problem already." He said.

"Or we won't have one of you just let us walk out this bitch." She said.

Knox shook his head. "Nah I'll rather keep you here." He said. "Anyways. There's more rules. Everyone gets up a 8 o'clock in the morning. Saturday and Sunday in the morning I take all the Dolls for a jog down the trail. We also work out too. I have all these men guarding these doors and all around the house. Good lucky trying to leave because they big ass will snatch you up. Anything else?" He asked

Kingsley and Asia sat there quietly not believing what they were getting into. "You ladies are excused. You can go back to your rooms or go get to know the other girls." He told them getting up from his chair.

Asia sat on the bed watching Kingsley look around the room trying to look for an phone or anything to call someone. "Kingsley could you please take a seat." Asia asked.

"No I can't. We can stay here. We need to get out of the fucking house. I don't care how nice and beautiful it is." She said.

"I agree." She said. "But you need to calm down. We already away from the hotel and we don't have your medicine. I don't want you to have a panic attack right now. Especially now."

"Do you remember anything from last night?" Kingsley asked.

"Only remember when we got drunk." She said. "What about you?"

"I remember some stuff but it's fuzzy right now." She said. "I really can't tell but fuck all of that this shit here is crazy."

"Well it kinda don't sound that bad." Asia said.

"No this is stupid. Who kidnapped women and make them become strippers and make money off of them?" Kingsley said.

"Totally agree with you but you know when he was explaining everything it didn't sound that bad unless you make it all bad." Asia told her.

"So you want to stay here?" Kingsley asked.

"Of course not. But you heard what he said. It's cameras and mics everywhere and they are watching. How can we get out and get through that big ass gate. That shit is at least 22 inches and I can't jump not gate. Plus looking out side it looks like we are on a dirty road. It'll take hours to get back to the city."

"Well I can't sit around and wait for shit to be done." Kingsley said. "We leaving tonight."

Asia nodded her head. A soft knock was placed on the door before it opened. A girl walks in. "Hey. Um everyone needs to come down stairs for a quick meeting." She said. "I'm Lux."

"I'm Asia and this is Kingsley." Asia introduced. "Can we talk to you for a minute?"

"Yea sure." She closes the door behind her.

"Ok so we're not understanding this whole thing - Well she is. Can you tell us how long is it to get back to the city?" Kingsley asked.

"It'll take a while if you walk." She said. "Plus we are in the middle of nowhere with hella tress everywhere."

"Ok so how do we leave with nobody stopping us." Asia asked.

"Well I don't know." Lux told them. "If you some how mange to leave you'll get lost then Knox and the others will find you. It's cameras everywhere even outside on some of the trees."

"What is this a girl's prison." Kingsley asked.

"No it's a home for all of us. We living good. We make our money and do what we want. We just can't leave the house without Knox permission." Lux shrugged her shoulders. "Well you guys can come downstairs and meet the other girls."

"I'll just stay up here. I need some time to think." Kingsley told her.

Asia left the room with Lux going downstairs the about 5 girls eating at the island and table. "Guys we have a new girl. Her name is Asia." Lux said as they walk in the kitchen. "Where are you from?"

"Dallas Texas." She told them.

"I thought there was two girls?" One of the girls asked.

"There is two girls the other girl is upstairs. I think she needs time to process this whole thing." Lux told them. "Well Asia welcome to our house we call it Doll Residence. We are all sisters."

"Yes so if you need anything it's ok to ask anyone of us for it." The light skin girl said.

"It's 9 girls in all. Amber just left."

"Finally." Lux said. "Oh yea Amber. Amber is the big sister. When Knox isn't here she basically steps in. But don't worry about her. She's barely here."

"Yea because she fucking the CEO almost everyday." The same girl said.

"Well anyway I'm Cherish. I think I saw you before." She said.

"Yea at the outlet. You were talking to my friend." She said.

"Yea I remember." She said. "There me, Naomi, Charity, Evani, Nayla we call her Nay, Lux, and Amber who just left."

"Nice to meet y'all." Asia waved. "How did all of you get here?"

"Some of us signed up for this. Some of us didn't." Lux said. "I sure and hell didn't sign up for this but I've gotten used to this and now I like it here."

"Same." Nay said nodding her head. Nay stopped talking as they all turned they're head as Kingsley came down.

"This is my friend Kingsley." Asia said and Kingsley walked towards her.

"I like your name. It's cute." Evani said. "Oh you gotta pick your stage name."

"Stage name?" Kingsley asked.

"Yes. Asia yours should be Asian." Naomi said. "Ain't that cute?"

"Yea I like it." Asia shrug her shoulders looking the name.

"Kingsley your name should be Kings." Charity said.

"No." Everyone disagreed.

"It's like when I come up with something you hoes always do me dirty." She rolled her eyes making Asia and Kingsley chuckle.

"I liked Kingsley by it self. You don't necessarily need a nickname. Some dancer use they're full name." Cherish said.

"What's your last name?" Nay asked.

"Creed." She told them. "Kingsley creed."

"Oh yea I like that. Your name already good enough." Lux said. "Welcoming Kingsley Creed to stage y'all give her a round of applauds." They giggled.

"I don't think this will be a bad thing after all." Asia whispered to Kingsley. Kingsley gave her look before looking away.
