"Shower?" he asked as she stepped back from him.
"Definitely." She said and he took her by the hand and led her into the bathroom.

Elegance was just the sort of place that she thought it would be. Lots of lights and music on the outside, with advertisements for the dancers and scantily clad women in the windows to entice passers-by to come in off the street. She walked with Shaun, hand in hand, up to the door where they were waved through after a cursory check of their IDs. Inside it was warmth and music and the scents of perfume and alcohol that filled the dimness of the main floor. There were stages all the way around the room, with just a few small gaps to allow the flow of patrons through the area, and every table in the place was an island with a brass pole that went from the ceiling down. There were four dancers in action and various stages of undress as they came in and within seconds Ellie had a drink in her hand.
She had no idea who had sent it her way, but the bartender poured it right in front of her and she needed the liquid courage too badly to turn down the sweet, rum-filled concoction. Her eyes took the whole room in, from the stages to the bars to the dancers to the patrons and she held onto Shaun's hand for dear life. She had never felt so nervous before, not at her wedding or the night she lost her virginity. Her heart was racing and she drained the glass before she realized it, only to have another drink replace it just as quickly.
"If people keep buying me drinks, I am going to end up so drunk tonight." She said, leaning in close to Shaun so that he would hear her over the music.
"Go ahead." He said, kissing her temple. "I'll get you home."
"And you aren't worried about other men buying me drinks?" She asked and he laughed. "What's so funny?" She narrowed her eyes at him and he just pointed to a statuesque redhead with the most magnificent breasts and longest legs that Ellie had ever seen.
"It isn't the men buying you the drinks, it's the dancers." He said and the redhead winked at her and blew her a kiss and she flushed with colour from her hair all the way down.
"Why are they buying me..." She began but just then the most beautiful woman she had ever seen in her life appeared out of the crowd. She was dressed in lingerie, which was the norm for the girls that weren't dancing, but her body was perfect, with flat, tone abs showing just the slightest hint of definition, breasts that were large but still just right for her frame, long legs in heels that were less exaggerated than those of the other dancers and her dark hair done up in a complicated mess on top of her head while her makeup was flawlessly designed to enhance her big, emerald green eyes and her full, wide mouth. She was model-pretty and Ellie suddenly felt very inadequate.
"It's a tradition." The dancer said with a smile, looking Ellie over with a gaze that stripped her to the skin and took in all of her flaws and features at once. She was hell on heels, this woman, a sex goddess, and she knew it. "We always buy drinks for women who come in on a regular night, helps them to relax.
"Oh..." Ellie said, feeling small and plain and mousy in the presence of the beauty.
"I'm called Jewels." The dancer said, reaching out to take Ellie's hand with a smile.
"Umm... El... Ellie." She managed, even her name feeling plain and bland suddenly.
"Well, Ellie, I hope you enjoy yourself tonight." The dancer said with her smile still in place. "And if you want a dance tonight, just ask for me. I'll give you a freebie." She moved off then, melting back into the crowd and it wasn't until after she had gone that Ellie realized that the woman had barely even glanced at Shaun. The woman had had eyes for her alone and that somehow made her more nervous than she had ever been before in her life.

She lost count of the drinks that were sent her way and the number of dancers that came over to introduce themselves to her and ask if she wanted a dance. But she was too anxious, and she sat on a comfortable love-seat with Shaun and watched the stage that was closest to them and the dancers that were performing there. Several of them tried to get her to come closer, but she stayed with Shaun and drank the drinks that came her way and felt herself sliding into comfortable intoxication.
Which was the only comfortable thing about the night for her. She had dressed in what she thought was a slightly revealing outfit, a loose top and shelf-bra and skirt that fell just shy of mid-thigh and her sexy red panties that felt so good against her skin. But compared to the dancers and even the bartenders here, she was dressed like a nun in full habit. Every female staff member was dressed in something sexy and revealing and not a single one of them seemed even remotely ashamed of the skin they were showing. She saw dancers remaining in just their heels after a set, lounging around comfortably and chatting or moving on to private dances with customers while one of the bartenders sold her bra to one of the men at the bar and she remained happily topless, her pierced nipples sending flashes and sparks of light through the room as she moved.
It wasn't long before Ellie felt overdressed and that seemed to draw attention where the casual nudity and exposure of the other women did not. She stood out and she felt very anxious at the looks she was getting, though no one seemed to bother her as she sat with Shaun and it was clear that they were together. But she could feel the looks she was getting and that made her drink more. And the more she drank the more she couldn't seem to look away from the stage and the dancers that were there and when the DJ introduced Jewels a little thrill went through her whole body and she sat up a bit as the gorgeous woman came out on the stage to start her set. She was leaning forward in her seat and staring and she was very aware of the fact that her body was sending out every signal of attraction that she had. She felt the clenching of her muscles in her core and the way her belly seemed to flip weightlessly. Her skin tingled and her eyes dilated as she drew air through her mouth and licked her lips and when Shaun stood up and drew her to her feet she went without even realizing it and suddenly she was seated at the stage and looking up as the goddess looked down at her with a knowing smile.

The music seemed to pulse in time with her heartbeat and she stared unashamed as Jewels moved. Her body was flawless, not a scar or mole or wrinkle anywhere and she seemed to revel in the attention as she moved from the pole to a watching customer and back again with athletic ease and casual comfort in her state of undress. Ellie was drawn by the tonicity of her muscles and the warmth that she seemed to radiate as she flowed through the dance number, shedding the last of her clothing before the dancer finally moved across the stage and looked down at Ellie with a knowing smile.
Everything she did was elegant as she danced and Ellie couldn't look away. She flowed through her movements like water and before Ellie even understood what was happening the other woman was sitting on the edge of the stage, her feet on either side of Ellie's legs and then she was down and into Ellie's lap and they were face to face, Jewels had her arms around Ellie's neck and she was smiling as she moved her body in the most sexual way that Ellie had ever seen.
"You can touch me, you know." Jewels whispered with a wicked smile and Ellie couldn't even speak to respond, her hands coming up and feeling that the other woman was just as warm as she looked... warmer even. Her heart was racing as Jewels leaned in close enough that it was almost a kiss, only to barely brush her lips across Ellie's mouth before she moved away again, smiling as she moved and ground her hips around, pressing her body against Ellie's in the most blatantly sexual way that she had ever seen. She leaned in close again to whisper in Ellie's ear.
"I bet your pussy tastes just like candy." She said and then she was gone, leaving Ellie stunned in her seat as the dancer moved on to Shaun and then back to the pole at the end of her set. Ellie's leg were unsteady as they moved back to the loveseat and she could feel the wetness between her legs and just how hard and sensitive her nipples were. She was sure that she had been more turned on in her life, but she wasn't sure just when that might have been.
That was the exact moment that she understood why her husband enjoyed coming to places like this as much as he seemed to and she wanted nothing more at that moment than to be alone with him so she could act on what she was feeling. But at the same time she didn't want to leave just yet. She was enjoying herself and as the next drink filled her hand and then warmed her belly she turned her attention to the stage and the next dancer with a smile. Shaun was going to be in for a real surprise when they got home.

She was blissfully drunk when Jewels next set came around and she went up to the stage without prompting from her husband, eager for the attention of the dancer and the way that that attention made her feel. And Jewels didn't make her wait. The gorgeous woman locked eyes with her immediately and smiled in a way that had electricity running all through Ellie's body. She went through the entire first song before she shed her bra and freed her firm, perfect breasts and then she turned her focus on Ellie with a sudden smile that sent a thrill of fear and arousal shooting through her body.
She didn't walk across the stage, she stalked and Ellie could tell that she was the prey. And as Jewels crouched down, she just stared. The other woman held out her hand and Ellie, without understanding why, reached up and took it and Jewels drew her to her feet. She was numb all over, almost a spectator in her own body as Jewels drew her up, to step on the chair and then onto the little counter in front of the stage, and then on the stage itself. She turned around and stared out at the room and at the people who were suddenly looking at her.
She was on the stage...
On the stage of a strip club with a stripper...
