SNEAK PEEK
NIGHT FOR RECKLESS HEARTS
What'slife without incredible friends to join you in daring escapades?Like evading my parents and stumbling straight into Club Allure.
“This is a bad idea,” Dakota says while holding my arm tightly, probably to avoid getting lost in the crowd.
Alexa and I laugh at her statement.
“Would you stop repeating that?” asks Alexa, rolling her eyes.
Dakota frowns and gives Alexa a dirty look but doesn't say another word about it.
The two of them are very different from each other. Alexa is tall and brunette, with thick, curly hair and a heavy English accent. She is the artist, the daring and fearless one who acts first and then thinks.
Dakota is the opposite. Short with thick, black hair, slanted eyes, and a more restrained and analytical personality. As a promising medical student, her thinking is much more pragmatic.
But the two complement each other, and they complement me. We have been best friends since we were little, and I can’t imagine my life without them.
“Oh my god, Haley, this is why people can’t stop talking about this place.”
Alexa turns us in a little circle. As we step inside, an aura of opulence washes over us.
The club sprawls across three lavish stories, a testament to modern architecture. The elongated structure gleams under the ambient city lights, its exterior a blend of sleek glass and polished metal.
Inside, the deep midnight hues absorb the chaos of the city outside. It's as if we've entered a luxurious cocoon, escaping the urban hustle.
Neon lights, like ethereal dancers, weave an enchanting spectacle above our heads, casting vibrant hues that paint the space in an otherworldly glow.
This isn't just a club. It's a sensory journey through the heart of upscale New York City nightlife. Which is why my friends and I are here. Plus, this is the last place my parents will search for me.
Everyone I know has been dying to come to tonight’s event, but since my father runs NYC Empire, a direct competitor with Club Allure, I have no right to even think about setting foot in this place.
But that doesn't matter to me. Not today.
For the first time in my life, I broke the rules and snuck into Club Allure with my girlfriends so I could enjoy the party of the year.
Together, we walk down the stairs to the first floor of the club. My reflection stares back at me in the wall of mirrors next to the entrance.
I've never been able to offer an accurate opinion of myself. Men say I'm attractive, and I know that girls envy me. My long, light brown hair, the blue eyes against my peach skin, my full lips and accentuated curves.
But to me, I am nothing more than a porcelain doll. Too perfect at times and fragile. So close to breaking that it sometimes scares me.
Appearance is everything in my lifestyle. Or at least, it is everything to my parents who just want this face to get me a worthy husband. A man I don't love but to whom I'm promised in an arranged marriage against my wishes.
Everything in my being wishes it could be different. But I guess that can’t be if I want to keep my relationship with my parents intact.
However, today I’m putting that aside. Today I plan to have fun and ignore the consequences, so I sneak into the only club I’m forbidden to frequent all to have a taste of freedom, hang out with my besties, and dance my ass off.
In my silver sequined dress, which leaves my legs bare and emphasizes my physique, and dark red lipstick I feel sexy and invincible.
“I can't believe we're here!” I yell over the music.
