Chapter 22: Nina
Chapter 22: Nina
I was getting ready to lock up my apartment when I heard voices outside. I quickly locked up and rush
outside to see Deborah arguing with Darcy. Darcy had come to pick me up being my and all that but
how does she know Deborah?.
“What's going on here?” I asked them as I look from Deborah to Darcy.
“Nina?” Deborah call surprised looking at me“How did you know Darcy?”.
“She is my manager” I replied frowning, I don't know where this conversation is going to and I don't
think I'll like one bit.
“What?” Deborah screams as she charges over me with hostility“ are you the newly signed Lush
beauty model?” She asked me and I nodded.
“Damn you, Michael!, ” She screamed “ I will ruin you and everything that belongs to you” She storms
off angrily to her apartment.
“What was all that about?”I ask Darcy as I got into the car, she sat down beside me surprised as well
as the driver drove us to the location.
“Miss Melton was Lush beauty model until yesterday” She answers after some time.
“What?” It was my turn to look shocked, I mean I never knew, not that if I did I would have still signed
the contract cos I hate her so much right now.
“Yes, she has been with them for six years now and I've been her manager since then” She replies
shrugging as the car pulled into Lush beauty parking loot, cutting off our conversation.
I got down from the car to see Michael rushing to meet me with Andrea right behind him. How did he
get here so soon?. We just spoke on the phone.
“Are you alright?” He asked as he hugged me tightly breathing heavily. I was surprised as I look at
Andrea who shrugs.
“Yes. What's wrong Michael?” I ask him after he has released me looking all over my body for any sign
of scratches.
“Nothing” He replies when he was satisfied with his inspection“I was scared when I arrived and couldn't
find you,” He said as he guides me into the studio.
Everyone was set from the photographer to the costumier and the makeup artist. Darcy came to
excused me from Michael telling him that make-up artist was ready to make my face.
Juli was busy gushing over my face as she applies foundation on my face“ Wow!, you are so beautiful”
She said, blending the foundation on my face with a wet brush.
“Thank you” I reply shy as I'm not used to receiving compliments except Michael and Lillian.
“Our last model, Deborah Melton was not as beautiful as you are. She always relies on heavy makeup
to make her beautiful but you are just so natural” She continues, gushing on how I have the perfect
eyes, chin, face, and blah blah blah.
“Thank you” I reply again smiling, I just wish she would shut up anytime soon.
“I try to make it nude, that is what Michael wants” She said as she stood back to admire her handwork.
I look at the mirror smiling, she's really good. Though, she talks too much. She has flawlessly made up
my face and still retains my natural look.
“Thank you. I love it” I said looking up at her. Just then the door opens and Darcy walks in smiling.
“Wow! Ain't you an angel” She said as she gushes over me“ you are beautiful”.
She turns to Juli“ Are you through with her?”
“Yes,” Juli replied smiling at me“ It was nice making your face, Miss Miller” I smiled at her as she
gathers up her box and walks out.
“What next?” I ask Darcy looking up at her, though I'm still annoyed with her for crushing on Michael
but I gotta give it to her, she's a good manager.
“We will wait for your dress,” She said. I need to be through with this fast, I really want to see my family
today. I've missed them so much.
“ It will arrive anytime soon" Darcy continues just as we heard a knock on the door. Darcy went to open
the door and a man walks in holding various colours of expensive gowns that I could never imagine
wearing in my life.
“Nice to meet you, mademoiselle Miller, I'm Bodience your designer,” He said as he pecks me on the
cheek. His French accent made me remember Austin, it's been a long since we've talked.
“Nice to meet you too” I reply as I shake his hand.
He handed me the first gown, it was a lilac long flowing gown with a sequence and bareback. I walk
into the dressing room to put it on with Darcy beside me helping me with the zipper.
When I went back into the room, Michael and Andrea were standing beside Bodience. Michael looked
at me with desire in his eyes, my stomach tightens in answer to his plea.
“I think this will do for the first shoot,” Andrea said looking at Michael for approval. I felt like I was a
piece Of furniture that they wanted to buy as I watch both men in fascination.
“Yeah, sure,” Michael said as soon as he was through undressing me with his eyes.
“This is lovely Bodience. Keep it up” Andrea complimented Bodience as his eyes light up in
excitement.
Michael and Andrea walk me out with Darcy following closely behind us. We walk into the studio to see
that the photographer was ready while her two assistants were holding the light.
“Thank you, Andrea, I will take It up from here,” Mika said as she guides me to the cushioned chair at
the center.
“Miss Miller, I need you to hold that foundation and gaze Into It like you can't do without it any day,” She
said as one of the sales ladies handed me a Lush beauty foundation. I took it from her and do as she
has said while she clicks away on her camera smiling.
One hour later, I was standing beside Michael in front of the building. The shoot has finally come to an
end after all the sitting, standing, changing of clothes, and all that. I can't believe modeling can be so
tiring. I just need to go home and rest right now.
“Thank you, Nina, for your time,” Andrea said as he came over to the sidewalk and hug me handling a
bag containing various Lush beauty products.
“Thank you but I can't accept this,” I said trying to give him the bag back.
“No, you are our model now. It's our job to take care of you and you need to look good with our
products always” He said as he winks at me and turns to walk back inside smiling.
I turn to look at Michael, he has been quiet all this while. His blue eyes glittering with annoyance. I don't
even know why he's getting so worked up.
“I need to be going” I finally said after some time. He regards me with raised eyebrows as he
contemplates whether to say what was on his mind or not.
“Ok,” He said“ let me drop you off” He walked to a white Bentley which was parked at the far corner of
the parking lot.
I stood gasping at the car wondering about the number of cars he owns. He opens the door while I sat
down and he went over to the driver's side and sat down as he pulled out of the building.
We've been going for thirty minutes without anyone saying anything, I decided to break the silence, it
was choking me already.
“What is wrong with you Michael?” I ask him as I turn to look at him. His face hardens as he forces
himself to look ahead.
“Why did you ask?”He asked me as he concentrates on the road going at a normal speed limit.
“I Don't know, but you are not yourself. I mean you are not always this quiet”.
“Nothing just felt like being like this today,” He said as he swiftly maneuver the car from the upcoming
vehicle and continue on the lane.
“I know you are annoyed with me but I just don't know what I did?”.
“Do you no love me again?” He said his voice sounding cold and distant.
“Of course I do. Why did you think otherwise?”I ask him surprised that he could ever doubt my love for
him.
His eyes darted quickly to me as he gulps nervously “ Why then don't you want to spend the night with
me?”.
What? Is this why he has been sulking?. I threw my head back and laugh out loud. It has been so long
I've laughed so much, while Michael looked at me curiously.
“I'm sorry I was just kidding ” I reply after I had to laugh my eyes out. Michael glares at me as his face
curled up in a smile.
“Don't ever tease me with that again?” He said as his face soften. He pulls me to him and pecks my lips
passionately.
“God knows how much I love you, Nina,” He confesses as he gazes into my eyes. I furrow my brows
shyly as I try to hide my over blush face.
“I know that too, so don't worry I'm not going anywhere,” I said kissing him back passionately.
He pulled over at the sidewalk and off the engine. He grabs me over to him. Thank God the car was
tainted, I don't know what I will do if someone should see me like this, especially now that the media is
now on us both.
“God! I've been wanting to do this ever since I saw you looking sexy in that red gown,” He said in
between kisses as he trails kisses down my neck to my ear lobe.
I gasp as the butterflies in my stomach dances in excitement. I kissed him back feverish with desire for
him.
“Baby!, I want to take you right now,” He said as he looks at me with fire in his eyes seeking my
permission.
“Yes,” I reply as he drags up my gown to pull down my panties. Everything can wait, even my dad. I
want to explore Michael for now.
He carried me over to the backseat of the car as he inserts a finger into me, he groans loudly “My
goodness Nina. You are so wet and hot for me”
He pulled down his zipper and enter me. I moan as I grab him tightly. I miss him. I missed this. He
kisses me passionately as he whispers sweet nonsense in my ear.
“What you do to me Nina, I can't explain,” He said huskily as he gazes into my eyes full of love and
emotions. I'm happy that he is mine, I wouldn't share him with anybody not even Deborah. Never!!
He tightens his grip on me as he cum inside me, I follow suit later as well both lie down spent on the
back seat of the car. Woah!, can't believe I had sex in a car. Wait!, until Lillian finds out. Not that I would
ever tell her, she will make sure she teases me for the rest of my life.
“That's a first for me,” Michael said as he straightens his trouser and bends down to help me up. I
couldn't look him in the eyes as I put on my panties and straighten my lilac gown.
“What is a first for you?” I asked him after we were both seated at the front of the car, he pulls out of the
sidewalk and drove me to my parents' house.
“Having sex in the back seat of a car ” He answers, shrugging amused with himself.
“Same with me” I reply softly as I blush. He looks at me shocked and curious.
“I never expected you to do it since I was your first ” He replied as he turned to look at me smirking.
I scoff at him“ So?”.
Men with their ego “ How sure are you that I've never done it another someone” I reply taunting him.
He grips the steering tightly, his knuckles turn white as he faces pale “ What did you just say?” He
shouted as he looked at me annoyed.
“Relax big boy,” I said laughing at his jealous attitude “ I was only joking, moreover I told Deborah that
I've never had sex with anyone except you”.
“Good!, and I want it to stay that way,” He said as he grins showing his perfect set of white teeth.
He pulls over at my dad's driveway while I look at his surprised and shocked. I have never told him
where my parents lived. How did he know?.
“I ask John to do a security check on you,” He said nervously as he answers my unasked question.
“Really?. Now you see me as a threat right ” I ask him getting pissed off. I don't know what is wrong
with all these rich people and their security maniacs.
“No, please don't say that. I'm sorry” He said as he reaches for my hands, begging me with his eyes. I
smile at him, knowing fully well that I won't be able to refuse him. I couldn't stay mad at him forever.
I kiss him. I got out of the car quickly before I would change my mind and follow him home. I wave to
him as he pulls out of the driveway and turns to walk into the house.
