The crowds rolled in, pushing through those golden doors. Some stopped to marvel at the beauty of the piece of work but were soon pushed by those hurrying to get inside. As instructed, the new men did as they were told, rejeting those seen as unfit and accepting only the finer looking ones. Some fought but dared not to go further than shouting loudly.
The bar soon filled up, music roaring in the large space engulfing it with its rhythm. Women and men alike flocked to the dance floor, each allowing the music to take control of their bodies. Sweat, colonge , sweet scents of women's perfume and desire and lust were all mixed in the air. Alcohol flowed into the crowd, making their lust higher.
Ruth stood there in the corner, not bothering to focus on the crowd. His eyes scanned the upper floor, analyzing it, men and women dressed in name brand clothes and holding glasses of expensive whiskey and champagne. He knew that that was just the first level of getting to the top. He looked through the crowd of people looking down on the dancing people. A woman locked eyes with him, her black eyes glowing with something unrecognizable by the distance between them. She smiled, her red painted lip parting to reveal pearl white teeth, her lush lips mouthing something the sound lost due to the deafing music that raged on. She was beautiful, her eyes shaped like those of sirens, with the face of a goddess. But it hardly had an effect on him. He didn't care , the man next to her whispered something in her ear, making her turn her attention to him.
Her group disappeared into the doors, leading to the many rooms within. Focusing back on the dance floor, Ruth could see two men getting physical with each other, what was once drowned out shouting, turning into an angry screaming match, and both of them could not hear. In their intoxicated state, they became more and more aggressive. Ruth turned, looking at the senior standing not too far away from him. The senior looked at those stormy ocean blue eyes and flowed them to where the commotion is happening. Looking back at those endless pools, he shook his head, signaling for the younger man not to do anything yet.
The two men started to draw a crowd from the drunk, mindless people. The screaming got louder than the music, making the DJ stop. The anger echoed loudly, bouncing off the ceiling. The senior then tapped the younger man, signaling him to stop the fight. Before he could go, the senior whispered, "You go and stop it now. Remember, there are no fights here in the club." He nodded. The other guards came, but the senior stopped them. Laughing, he was testing him. Ruth broke through the crowd with ease, making it into the middle.
The two men still focused on each other and never noticed the man walking towards them silently, like a predator hunting it's prey. Slowly, Ruth places himself behind one of the men. He knew talking to them would be no help, but he tried too any ways "Sirs please stop this now or else you will be kicked out." he said, his tone dangerously low. The two men didn't listen they carried on. He looked for at them clearly tired of this , he took the one closest to him pinning him to tue ground. He looked for pressure point within the man's neck and pressed it. Instantly, the man drops still , unmoving ,the man is not harmed just sleeping soundly. The crowd gasped, looking at the handsome man in front of them in disbelief. The other man dared not move all of the anger and aggressiveness disappeared immediately, he sobered quickly and apologized profusely.
The crowd dispersed, the crowd still there, but on the outskirts of where the fight began, the man's group of friends rushed to his side, all of them blubbering something unaudible to anyone. " I am going to take him outside and call a cab for him. All of you should get going as well." His deep, violet voice hypnotized the group of young people. They just agreed with him. Ruth made his away past his senior, who nodded his approval. He carried on walking towards the entrance of the massive building, on the way out he bumped into that woman from the top floor but he paid her no mind , he apologized and carried on with the man still in his arms.
He walked on afterward, the group following soon after him not wanting to leave his side. On reaching the entrance, the guards all raised an eyebrow at him, each trying not to laugh at how ridiculous this all was, but they knew it was like a traditional thing to have the newbies deal with fights they just have not witnessed something like this before. He just nodded at them and then placed the man in a taxi, one of the friends called. They all thanked him through their drunkenness. One of the girls had tried to even kiss him, but he dodged it. The man that was in his arms was out cold and looked much more peaceful now.The group all huddled inside the small taxi before waving goodbye to him.
Ruth turned , only to find all of his staff mates looking at him with goofy expressions on their faces. He sighed, laughing, shaking his head. This first night was going to be hell. He thought before making his way back in. He knew that the girl from before would be of some help to him. He thought, looking at the black rose, he knew she was connected to Lorenzo somehow. He could feel it.
