An invitation to an important place and event.

“Congratulations on becoming a tier 5 user! At tier 5 you are allowed use of the UDA Special Members Club. There will be an event for new entrants to the club tonight, Thursday, March 25 at 8pm. It is highly recommended that new members attend at least one event. Members are required to bring their hottest conquest for entry.”

Wow. Okay, this adds a whole new dimension to the app. Is this club going to have people who can explain where it came from? Will there be some way to upgrade the app? Who knows.

Shit, it's tonight. There's barely enough time to get home and grab Brooke. Is Savannah hotter? Eh, it's really a coin toss which one is hotter, and I don't want to mess up Savannah's training.

I send a message to Brooke telling her to dress up nice, then drive home quickly and pick her up at the door. She's waiting for me outside wearing a tight, red, off the shoulder dress that barely covers her ass. Nice! If we're all bringing our hottest girls, I want to show off.

The club is in a nice part of town and it takes me awhile to find parking. Still, we manage to get there a few minutes early. There's no sign or anything, but there is a velvet rope in front of the door and a bouncer standing outside. The bouncer is the largest woman I've ever seen in my life. She's well over six feet tall, broad shouldered, has muscles pushing out every seam of her black suit, and her head is shaved bald.

I walk up to this woman feeling slightly freaked out by her size. I say, “Hi. I'm here for the club.”

She glances at Brooke, then looks back at me with a face of stone. “Let's see it.”

“Let's see what?”

“If you don't know what it is, you don't get in.”

Not knowing what else she might want, I pull out my phone. I open up the Ultimate Dating App and find the part of my user page that shows that I'm tier 5. I hold it up for her.

She looks it over, then unsnaps the rope and motions for me to enter. “Welcome to the UDA Special Members Club.”

I take Brooke's arm and head inside. We walk into a room that looks like a really elegant strip club. There's a stage at the front, a bar along the side, and bunch of fancy stuffed chairs spread around. There are crowds of guys talking here and there, maybe a few dozen all together. Hot girls in serving girl outfits are offering the guys food on trays and tending the bar.

However, before I can enter, there's another female mountain of muscle on the inside. Same black suit, same bald head, same dismissive expression. She puts a hand out to stop me and says, “You new?”

I nod. “Yeah, this is my first time in the club. I just got to tier-”

“Here're the rules.” She holds up her fingers to count off. “Rule one: Keep your hands off the girls while you're here. That includes your own girl. Look but don't touch. Rule two: Your girl will be part of the serving staff for as long as you're here. You need to order her to go into the service area and do what she's told. She'll be returned to you when you leave. Rule three: Do not ask the boss any questions. He'll tell you what he tells you. Do you understand these rules?”

“Um, yeah, sure.” I look where the woman is pointing and see a door. “Okay, Brooke, head in there and do whatever they ask you to do.”

She gives me a lovesick look telling me that she doesn't want to be away from me, but she says, “Yes, sir!” and heads through the door.

I walk into the club. A gorgeous black girl with her curly hair pulled back into two big puff balls comes up to me with a tray. She smiles like an angel and says, “Would you like some steak and prosciutto skewers, sir?”

“Hell yeah, I haven't eaten anything since lunch!” I grab a couple.

Then I hear a voice from behind me. “Save some room for the cheese balls, they're really good.”

I turn around and see a tall guy in glasses with thick, black frames. It's really weird seeing someone with a **** metal t-shirt and full sleeve tattoos on his arms holding a wine glass. He takes a skewer and says, “I'm Elijah. Is this your first time?”

“Hi, I'm Greg. Yeah, this place is insane! Do all these serving girls belong to the guys here?”

“Yeah, bringing a girl is kinda the price of entry. Most of the girls stay in the back, making the food and stuff. The hottest girls wait on us. I like it, we get to see what other guys have collected.”

I nod towards the giantess at the front door. “Were those women captured by the app too?”

Elijah smiles and says, “Nah, the app only works on humans.”

I laugh, but he doesn't laugh with me, he just smiles a bit. “Wait, are you serious?”

He shrugs. “I don't even know. Someone told me that one time, and I didn't question it.” He takes a sip of wine. “So, are you a good guy or a bad guy?”

“What does that mean?”

He points over at a crowd of guys talking on one side of the room. They're all polo shirts and nice haircuts. “Those assholes think they're good guys. They make a bunch of excuses for why it's okay to capture girls and claim that they love everyone in their harems.” He points at a different group on the other side of the room. They're all t-shirts and bad posture. “Those assholes accept that they're bad guys. They know what they're doing is wrong, but they also think that women are bitches who deserve it. So which are you?”

I smile. “I guess I'm a bad guy! That sounds more fun!”

Elijah clinks his wine glass against mine. “Hell yeah! We're monsters, why fight it? Monsters devour maidens, that's the world, and you either get what you can out of it, or you get eaten.”

“Fuck yeah!” I take a huge swig, then say, “I'm just not sure how we're all getting away with this. A lot of my classes are missing most of the girls. The streets even look empty of women in some places. Why aren't people freaking out about this?”

He laughs. “Don't worry about it. That will make sense once you hit the next level. By the way, I saw that girl your brought in. Nice catch! She might be the hottest girl I've seen someone bring to the club.”

“Yeah, Brooke is pretty hot. Plus, I snagged a redhead today who is just as sexy!”

“Congrats, man!” says Elijah. The lights blink, and everyone turns towards the stage. “Hey, it's time for the boss' thing. You're new, so you should probably get up close for the full affect. You're about to learn something really important.”

“Cool, good to meet you, Elijah.” I head towards the stage, grabbing some cheese balls off a hot brunette's tray on the way.
