Lily nervously approached the door before her, clutching tightly at the flyer in her hands to keep her trembing fingers at bay.
The advertisement she was holding read: "Models Wanted". To Lily's understanding, the gig was for an interactive art exibit, in which she would be fully nude. She had modeled before for some swimsuit brands, but had never ventured farther than that.
Unfortunately for her, she had lost her previous job as a hostess in a nearby club the week prior. While the ad was a definitely vague and sketchy, Lily decided she would do anything necessary to make ends meet for the time being.
This gig was recommended by a close friend of hers that was very openly active in the kink community, so Lily figured there would be some kink aspects to the exhibit. While Lily wasn't the most experienced when it came to sex, having just turned 22 the week prior, she figured maybe this would also be a good chance to get to know her tastes and comfort levels.
The huge paycheck didn't hurt either.
Her mind was reeling with all of the possibilities that lie beyond the door to the nondescript warehouse building she currently faced. Finally, she took a deep breath in as she tentatively reached for the door handle.
She was greeted immediately by a smiling woman in the front hallway.
"You must be Lily," the woman reached out to shake her hand. "It's such a pleasure to finally meet you. My name is Diana. Welcome to the studio."
Lily's breath hitched as she shook her hand. The woman was gorgeous! She towered over Lily's petite 5'6 figure, with long, cascading red hair and a sleek black dress that sharply contrasted Lily's medium-length blonde hair that was tied up in a ponytail. She had chosen not to wear anything fancy knowing she would have to strip down regardless, but now felt a little out of place.
"N-nice to meet you too!" She stuttered. The woman gave her a gentle smile in return, noting her hesitance.
"Don't worry Lily, I know the job description seems a tad intimidating. But you're a perfect fit! I think you're going to enjoy yourself a lot tonight." Diana winked at her. "The exhibit isn't for another hour. Would you like to get started? I'll give you the grand tour."
Lily gave a timid nod in response before Diana began leading her down the hallway deeper into the warehouse.
"So, are you... the artist behind the exhibit tonight?" Lily questioned as she followed Diana down the hall.
"Hmm... not quite." The woman replied with a sly smirk. "I guess you could say I'm just the pretty face of the event. The inventor- or, artist, I suppose, prefers to stay more... behind the scenes."
This confused Lily a bit, but she chose not to press further. After all, she was only there to model for the night. Finally, they reached the main room. Lily gaped in awe.
The massive room was adorned with silky red curtains all along the walls, and chandeliers dangled from the ceiling providing the entire area with dim, romantic lighting. Black walls partitioned the warehouse into several exhibit rooms, and Lily spotted several female staff members shuffling to and fro with various props to set up the event.
"Don't pay them any mind," Diana spoke softly. "That's our event staff. There's typically one or two per exhibit, just to keep things moving. You won't be seeing them much, though." She shrugged.
"Why is that?" Lily asked.
"Oh? Because you're the star of the show tonight, darling." Diana hummed.
Lily gulped. What had she gotten herself into? With every step they took through the labyrinth of smooth black walls, she felt her heart beat a little faster.
Each room housed its own "art piece". As they passed through them all, Lily saw all sorts of contraptions such as massage chairs with stocks meant to hold hands and feet, sybian saddles, tables clad in chains, and many more bondage devices.
They weren't just typical sex furniture, though. All of the devices seemed to be attached to some sort of high-tech, rectangular machines with several openings on every side, but Lily couldn't quite tell what was inside them or what they were for.
"And we're here!" Diana clapped her hands together, pulling Lily out of her daze. "This is your exhibit! What do you think?"
Lily didnt quite understand what she was looking at. Before her stood a huge contraption not unlike an arcade game machine, just on a bigger scale.
Instead of a game screen, there was a spacious, brightly-lit chamber with hundreds of small openings on the floor panel. It was completely surrounded by thick glass. Lily spotted two openings on the upper sides of the chamber, wide enough to fit someone's arms through.
The control pad jutting out from the front of the machine had many buttons on it, as well as a black LED screen that was currently off.
Finally, the room itself had many seats and tables, with the machine placed up on a podium in the center.
"I'm, um, not sure I understand." Lily gulped. Surely she wasnt meant to just stand inside of it all night? "What is this thing? Do I go in there?"
Diana just smiled again in response. "Oh, honey, this piece is our artist's latest and greatest invention!" She gave the
