Chapter Twelve

Arianna stood with as much patience as she could muster while an assistant blotted the perspiration from her body and reapplied her makeup. She had been posing in this teeny-weeny bikini for three hours already and she was getting tired. And thirsty. It was hot as hell on the Caribbean island. The sun was unrelenting and today there wasn’t even a whisper of a breeze.

The small plane had dropped them here three days ago and everything had been nonstop since then. At first she’d been over-the-top excited about this opportunity. The test shoot in New York had gone well, the photographer had praised her, and before she could blink, she’d been loaded onto this plane with the others and flown to this lush tropical island.

She’d never been to a place like this before. Face it, she’d never been anyplace besides Ohio and New York and the bus ride from point to point. And for sure not to a private island owned by one person. A house so big she was sure that without directions she could get lost in it. One with an indoor and an outdoor pool, as well as a private beach. A house so enormous, with enough bedrooms that each of them had their own.

If only she could share this. The agent had asked the girls to hand in their cell phones, promising to give them back after the shoot was finished.

“No distractions,” he’d teased.

Still, she’d managed in the ladies’ room at the office to call her roommate and tell her what was happening, with a promise to call later with more details.

Each day after they were finished, they’d been given the opportunity for a swim. Just swimming, no posing. Three of the girls had chosen a pool, but she’d never been to the beach before so she and Maya had indulged themselves, standing in the water and letting the waves roll in over them, basking in the Caribbean sun.

At night, a cook prepared dinner and they were served on what she was sure was the finest china and crystal. Then they went to sleep in beds big enough for four people with sheets like satin and fluffy pillows. The entire atmosphere was enough to seduce anyone into a world of pleasure. How would she handle it when she had to return to her fourth-floor walkup in New York? Chances were now she could afford to move, and maybe still be friends with some of these girls. The thought cheered her up.

If anything bothered her at all, it was the man introduced to her as the owner. Although he was middle-aged, he looked like he worked out every day. He was tan and fit and treated them with gracious cordiality. It did bother her that while he smiled a lot, that smile looked artificial. More than that, however, was the look in his eyes, like he was measuring her for something. It frightened her. Maybe that was the look he gave people he did business with, and it had become permanent.
