Yes, James. Do you need me to go in?
Not yet.
Fuck. This wasn’t what I needed right now.
Chapter Four
Ava
As soon as James called an end to our passionate scene it was like the mood shifted, everything became businesslike. He got up and walked away while I tried to calm that stupid organ in my chest that was dancing violently against my ribs. I sat on the bed, stunned into silence, sweat and desire still on my skin when the beautiful photographer’s assistant came up to me and smiled.
“You were amazing,” she whispered.
“Thank you.” I did my best to give a smile, but it was strained. My body was confused and my mind wasn’t any better. A million little thoughts had flooded my brain and they took over. My first orgasm by someone else and it was in front of an audience. Did they see it? Did they realize it was happening, or did they think we were acting?
“You can go back and get dressed now.” She handed me my robe with a gentle smile. I took it as my face had to be completely red as the heat spread across my face. I’d been sitting there like a fool as if they had nothing to do while they had somewhere to be. I peered around the room just as Elizabeth rushed to my side. My eyes were only looking for one person. I lost sight of James who had said something about needing air or something before rushing off, but his words were muddled or maybe my brain was.
My neighbor and friend cupped my cheeks and squealed, “Wow, that was fantastic. You are so hot and that shoot was killer. Seriously, I can’t believe that was my boss. I had to cover my eyes. Anyway, I need to get some things done.”
“What do I do with these?” I pointed to robe in my hand and the sexy matching panty set that made me feel sensual or maybe that was just James. The man was animalistic the way he prowled toward me so intent on breathing in my scent that I surrendered effortlessly and became a woman I didn’t recognize but always wanted to be.
“You can keep those and toss your regular ones over them. Those babies are yours,” Elizabeth said, grabbing my bra strap. It was the nicest bra I’d ever worn, but that wasn’t why I wanted to keep it on. I was hoping that maybe later, James would keep his promise.
“Really?”
“Yes, they were bought for the shoot and you. Besides, they are perfect for your figure. It’s all paid for by the company anyway. Enjoy them. Now let’s get you dressed so they can get out of here.” She nudged me toward the changing area and patted my ass. I gave her a scowl and then giggled.
I dressed as quickly as I could manage. When I came out of the area, almost everyone was gone. And to my dismay, James hadn’t come back. I wondered if he went into another room in the building or in the lobby or something.
“Where is…” I didn’t have to finish the question because my face gave me away.
“James had to go into the office. There was something that came up. Sorry. I’m going to take you home.”
“Oh, okay.” My dismay showed on my face.
“Don’t worry. You’ll be paid this week, and you’ll be able to see the photos soon. I’m not sure how long it will take, but since everyone’s in a rush to get the campaign up and running, you’ll see them soon.”
“Thanks. I’m ready to go,” I said. “Well, I mean, unless you have somewhere else to go, because I can just take an Uber or something.”
“No, girl. I got you. Let’s get going.” There was a large luggage rack with four outfits in the garment bags that she snagged.
“Thank you so much,” I told Claude.
“You’re very welcome. You’re a natural, Ava, and made our job much easier.”
“You got it, girl. I just know the ad is going to be a hit with you on it,” Elizabeth said, holding onto the bags.
“Hey, let me help with those,” I insisted.
“Nope. I’ve got it. You just need to march your ass to the car and get inside. I’d hate to have the boss fire me if something happened to you.”
“Whatever. You are being ridiculous.” I rolled my eyes and opened the rear door and then she laid the garment bags inside.
“Do you want some food because I’m starved?” she asked as we both climbed inside her nice BMW.
My stomach grumbled loudly as if answering for me. “I could totally use something to eat.”
“Yeah, couldn’t tell,” she chuckled.
I laughed. “What he say to starving me?”
“Do go ratting me out now.” She wagged her finger at me before pulling out of the parking spot.
“What do you want? I know models have to keep it thin and all. A piece of lettuce now.”
