Lee Chaerin looked into the lit mirror one last time. She was due on stage any minute. Her makeup was perfect. Dark and smokey eyes with shimmering lips and glowing skin. Her straight blond hair was golden as ever. She lived up to her description as a golden goddess. 

In her dressing gown, she held her platform heels and padded her way to the side of the stage wearing her Rilakkuma slippers. She smiled at the other performers passing by. They politely offered words of encouragement, which she didn't need. She'd been doing this too long to be nervous. Too many nights a week to give a damn.

The previous performer's music had stopped and transitioned into the generic house music they would play in between dancers.

Chaerin disrobed her silk dressing gown, revealing her slim, womanly figure. She stepped out of her slippers and into her heels.

"And now, the lady you all have been waiting for," Seungri announced over the speakers. He paused as the men in the audience roared. "CL!"

With one step from outside the shadows and onto the catwalk, Lee Chaerin transformed into CL, the headlining exotic dancer for The Pyramid, an elite Gentlemen's club. All eyes were on her like they were meant to be.
