Lights were dim and music loud. Bodies swaying to the beats of the song playing in the background as the entertaining women performed their routines with ease on the stages lined with poles.

Laughter, curses, moans and demands of more drinks were sounds that were muffled by the loud music that could make ones head throb as the bass shook the grounds of the club.

celestial nights.

A name that was the home to every rich kid who ever existed. Alcohol or enticing women. Celestial nights provided it's customers with every intoxicant and satisfaction they demanded. 

Plush sofas lined tht back wall along with more secretive booths that were occupied by the semi rich population of the country while the royalties resided on the top floor. The VIP floor to be exact. A much open place then the bottom.

Tinted glass walls gave the elite born's a view of the city of lights as the buildings glowed in their glories. The dark sky contrasted against the red tail lights of moving vehicles on the roads, the silence of the night outside was continuously stabbed by the piercing beats of the music that shook the buildings off their grounds.

"So how's your job going?" A male in his late twenties with with ashy grey eyes and black hair asked Aaban as they lounged on the bar stools.

"Good. What about your art gallery?" Aaban asked sipping the Amber coloured poison in his glass. Ehteshaam leaned on the glass counter and surveyed the place for some new faces while answering his friends question.

"Damn. Look at that goddess" Ehteshaam smirked nodding his head in the direction of a girl.

Aaban looked at one of the booths that were over in the far away corner. His eyes widened spotting Huda sitting in one of booths near the one Ehteshaam was pointing.

She was sitting alone in the dark booth blankly staring at the wall. Her eyes blank as her finger circled the rim of her glass. Black hair left open as they fell over her shoulder.

Ehteshaam disappeared with the girl he had went upto while Aaban walked over to his wife. She didn't even notice him as he slid next to her in the booth.

"Huda" He said, his eyes raking her form claded in a short black dress that ended mid thigh. The sweetheart neckline and thin straps gave an insight of her ample bosom and sharp shoulder blades. The diamond necklace sitting on her collar bones glinted under the multi color hue of lights that flashed in the area. 

"Professor. What an unpleasant surprise." She said downing her fifth glass of alcohol. It was taking a toll on her mid. Her sense were growing hazy and numb. She took a long drag of the cigarette she held between her fingers and  exhaled the smoke into the air tilting her head back. The action so small but it had a major affect on his senses. Her eyes closed as she leaned her head back in the sofa.

"Likewise." He said leaning back. She called the waiter over and ordered herself another glass of whiskey ignoring his heated gaze on her.

"What are you doing here?" He asked sitting alittle away from her.
