Chapter 54: The Introduction

A shiver ran up and down Histoire's spine simultaneously when she reached the carved, wooden double doors that would lead to the miniature backyard rose garden. Chris was behind her and one of the cameramen standing beside him, filming as Histoire inhaled deeply and exhaled per Chris' instruction that he whispered into her ear. Histoire may have been the most camera-shy model he had ever met. She did not have much on her repertoire as she had been a model for a few months with less than five magazine appearances.

Transitioning from subtly modeling clothes to erotic underwear, as he had read the latest magazines all the participants had appeared in, must have taken an extraordinary amount of courage. He had the feeling that Histoire did not consent to the publication of that one picture. She was shy and timid, and he could hardly imagine her with the confident characteristic of the girl he had seen on a full page of the magazine.
