This story arose from some e-mail correspondence with a reader who mentioned that she had some very specific fetishes, and that she didn't think that anyone else would find a story about them to be hot. I took that as a challenge, so here goes...
Times were tough for aspiring young models. Of course, times are always tough for aspiring young models. It was particularly tough for Jennifer because she was trying to build her modelling career while attending UCSD. But she was somehow managing to keep a roof overhead and her student loans to a minimum. Besides, it was always easier to diet when the cupboards were virtually empty anyway.
Jennifer got the call on a Thursday night. It was supposed to be a Saturday jewellery job, but it was way out in the suburbs. The money was significantly higher than usual for a jewellery shoot, but she didn't have a car so she'd had to turn the job down. That was a problem. The client had specifically asked for an Asian model with medium breasts, and she was the best fit the agency had. She thought it funny that they were worried about the breasts, but she decided there must be necklaces in the shoot, and they wanted an appealing background. When she told her agent why she had to turn it down, he had strong-armed the client into sending a limo. It was her first limo.
"High end job. High end requirements. High end perks." He'd said
And so it was that at 11:00 on Saturday morning a long white limo pulled up in front of her building. The driver opened the door for her and took her hand to guide her into the seat. When he closed the door behind her, the hot morning air was gone. Replaced by the cool sweet smell of air conditioned leather. The intercom buzzed, and the driver told her to enjoy a glass of chilled champagne from the open bottle in the silver ice bucket.
"How can you call anything made out of silver a bucket?" she thought to herself
It was not her custom to drink much at all, let alone before lunch, but swept up in the opulence, she decided to indulge herself. So as the limo cruised smoothly down the freeway, she poured herself a glass of the sparkling wine and lay back to enjoy the luxury. Time slipped quickly by as she sipped the wine and daydreamed of a time when this would be a commonplace occurrence, so she was surprised to see that it was approaching 2:00 when they left the freeway and entered the "burbs".
She had a moment of concern as they pulled into the parking lot of one of those small industrial malls, but then she looked around at the inside of the posh limo, and remembered that since her agency always vetted every client, and she knew that everything would be OK. They pulled up in front of a single unit identified by a simple sign as BD Enterprises. It looked classy enough. Out of force of habit, she reached for the door handle but before she could pull it, the door opened and the driver stood there, holding out his hand smiling.
"Here ma'am, allow me to help you out." This as he took her hand to guide her out of her back seat haven.
As she stood, the wine and the heat hit her at once and she stumbled. The chauffeur was quick to react and grabbed her by the waist to keep her from toppling over.
"Careful there ma'am." he admonished. "I think you may have had a bit too much of the bubbly"
She still felt a bit unstable and was glad when he extended his elbow for her to take as they moved from the limo to the door.
"GET IT TOGETHER GIRL!" She screamed to herself. "You'll never get another chance if you blow this now."
The two guys who met them inside were rather unremarkable, not at all what she expected, but they were very friendly and welcoming. They even offered her another drink which, in her current state, she knew enough to decline, particularly since there didn't seem to be any food around to soak up the alcohol. After the introductions, handshakes, and requisite small talk, they moved through the office into the back room. There were two professional looking photo studios, one fitted with video. She had expected to see some dressing rooms, make-up area, and perhaps a wardrobe area, but the rest of the building was full of shelves stacked with boxes.
"OK Jennifer, We might as well get started." Enthused Duane. "Jake, go back to the office and bring us the products."
Now she was really confused. She had taken care to wear one of her best half cup underwire bras to provide some cleavage as a backdrop to any necklaces that might be part of the shoot, but, expecting to be supplied with appropriate wardrobe, she had simply pulled a scooped-necked tee over her head. The confusion was not reduced when Jake returned with a stack of boxes and no clothing.
"Excuse me Duane." She began. "Is there a wardrobe, a particular dress or top you want me to start with?"
"Wardrobe? Particular dress?" He laughed. "No deary, just strip to the waist and let's get on with it."
Strip to the waist? Had she heard him correctly?
"Sorry? I was told this was a jewellery shoot. Why would I need to strip to the waist?" she inquired
"Jewellery?" laughed Duane who was quickly joined by the others. "There's no jewellery here deary, We sell BDSM gear and today's shoot is all about bits and gags. So just strip and let's get on with it. We're burning daylight." This with a bit of annoyance.
"I'm sorry." She began. "I don't do that kind of modelling. I was told this was a jewellery shoot. If you don't mind, I'll just head back out to the car and you can take me back home. I'm sure the agency can find you a suitable replacement for next week."
"BULLSHIT" howled Duane. "I've got a lot of money tied up in this escapade today and if you want to default on our agreement, you can damn well WALK home."
She was stunned. She certainly had no objection to showing some cleavage, or the side of her breast for that matter, but her most risquΓ© appearance to date had been a topless shot with a professional she had known and trusted for years, where her breasts were almost completely covered by her hands. She wished she hadn't had the champagne. It was affecting her clarity. What was she going to do? This entire thing was a complete misunderstanding. She was here for a jewellery photo shoot, not some BDSM fetish crap. Surely there was some compromise that could be made.
"Duane," She started in a soothing tone," Duane, surely we can come to some..."
"Some WHAT?" he yelled. "I'm out $5K and if you don't model this stuff Today, RIGHT FUCKING NOW, I am going to charge it all back to you. You signed a contract didn't you."
OH GOD. She couldn't even afford a cab ride back home, let alone to pay that penalty. She certainly couldn't walk all the way back home either. What to do, what to do? Damn that champagne. She couldn't think straight, couldn't weigh her options, couldn't even think of any other options.
"O..O..OK." She stammered. "B..B..But you have to make sure my nips don't show in the final pictures, and that's non-negotiable." This as she started to regain her confidence.
"Done. Now let's get this show on the road girlie. Get that damn top off and let's get going."
Jennifer realized that she was trapped. There was no way out. It was going to happen and there was nothing, absolutely nothing, she could do to save her dignity. She looked around the room and saw that all the men's eyes were glued to her. A sudden rush of embarrassment caused her face to flush. She was the only woman in the place and she was about to go topless. As if in a dream, she crossed her arms across her waist and pulled her tee over her head in one smooth motion. No sense in letting them know she was terrified.
The sudden intake of breath by every man in the place disturbed her, and her face went red hot with embarrassment.
"OK." She announced. "Let's get this show on the road."
"Yeah. Right. As soon as you drop the bra honey"
Oh God he was serious. There didn't seem to be an option. Her trembling hands slowly climbed to the clasp on the front and then, quick, like pulling off a band aid, she opened her bra and threw it on the table with her tee. The instant the cool air hit them, her nipples stood rigidly at attention. The men's eyes were riveted to her firm high tits. If she hadn't already been beet red, she would have blushed. As it was, all she could do was cross her arms over her chest to try to maintain some semblance of dignity.
"OK. Let's get going people." exclaimed Duane. "Tom, hand me the B215."
Jennifer's eyes widened as she saw Tom pick up a leather strap with a bright red rubber ball in the middle. Duane took it and moved behind her.
"Open wide" This as he reached over her head and pulled the ball portion into her mouth.
Then he had fastened the the buckle tightly behind her head, stretching her lips and pulling the ball firmly into her mouth. He moved around to look at his handiwork, reached his hand up and gave the ball a little push back into her mouth, and when he was satisfied with the fit, he told her to move into the photo studio.
She had never worn a gag before, never played any BDSM games, never been submissive. But this did kind of remind her of a time.... NO. She couldn't think of that now. She had to get through this and get out of here.
"Arms down deary."
Why did he keep calling her deary, and honey? It was demeaning. She had a name, why wouldn't he use it. As these thoughts were running through her mind, she almost didn't notice that they had started taking pictures. Jennifer raised her hands to cover her exposed breasts from the camera lens, but Duane stopped her with a stern shout. The leather strap was pulling the corners of her mouth back causing her lips to close around the ball so she couldn't form words. When she tried to tell them not to shoot with her nipples showing, all that came out were unintelligible grunts and huffing. She reached behind her neck to undo the gag, but when she did the photographer started snapping wildly.
