Editor's note: this story contains scenes of non-consensual or reluctant sex.
Simone thumbed absentmindedly through the pages of the Village Voice. Folks said print media was on its way out, but there was something familiar and decadent about the Voice. After perusing all the cultural potpourri, criticism, and goings-on-about-town, she finally landed on the back page. Just as she was about to toss the paper in the recycling bin, Simone smiled to herself and decided to read the back-page ads ... just for shits and giggles. She made it through the marijuana-cessation studies; the harm-reduction clinics, and several other peculiarities when her eyes landed on the ad.
"
Non-nude models needed for on-line, adult-novelty catalogue. Ages 18-40, male, female, gender-nonconforming, any ethnicity. Should have `natural appeal,' alt-sexy, and be a little adventurous
."
Simone was curious and amused. She could use some cash, she thought. And though she had never modeled in her life, she knew she was attractive in an "alternative" sort of way, whatever in the fuck that might mean. Still, she would be embarrassed and a little nervous to show up to a modeling ... audition? interview?
What the hell; Simone's best friend James had done all sorts of modeling. She and James both went to design school in the Village but lived in a renovated industrial space in Bushwick. Someone told her that James had even done some porn shoots, but Simone would have been mortified to ask him about that. James was certainly handsome. He was lean, with rippling muscles. He had short, light brown dreds, caramel skin, and his face was devastatingly handsome.
James was totally into it. He also understood that this was just an adventure for Simone and she needed moral support. They called the number together, and initially everything seemed legit. There would be no actual nudity. The offer was from a small start-up selling sexy role-play outfits and sex toys. They wanted attractive folks who looked natural, and at ease to make the folks at home feel comfortable buying from them. In other words, they didn't want the "porn star" / stripper look, but were looking for the nice looking couple-next-door. The last few comments were kind of weird though. Apparently, they wanted them to arrive with no makeup (fair enough) but also no perfume or cologne of any kind. That last par seemed a bit odd. The lady on the phone explained somewhat enigmatically that the photographer was "a bit eccentric, that's all."
The two friends were greeted warmly by a couple assistants. They were plied with red wine, hors d'oeuvres of bloody steak tartar, chicken satay, and other improbably rich fare. They were offered protein shakes, vitamins, and red-bull. And a pipe with some high-quality weed was going around. This was already really getting a little weird.
Finally, James and Simone got well into the photo shoot. A tall, handsome, muscular man with olive skin and dark eyes in a dapper grey suit seemed to be directing everything, while a woman named Anastasia was the photographer. Assistants bounced around, with products and paraphernalia with which to pose. One of the assistants really caught Simone's eye. Her name was Rachel. She was about 5'1" of pure attitude, with long, wavy red hair and lovely curves
James and Simone posed playfully holding dildos, anal plugs, paddles, soft fuzzy restraints, elaborate vibrators, and even a riding crop. Simone started to get into the spirit and mischievously stroked a rather large, brightly colored dildo while making exaggerated, wild-eyed faces of excitement and desire. James followed suit and pretended to "go down" on a very realistic 7-inch, realistic dildo with a suction cup base.
Next there were the costumes. This took Simone way out of her "comfort zone." James as a hunky Firefighter and a cop. Simone as a sexy nurse, and a sexy teacher, and then the most risquΓ© of all, a dominatrix. She wasn't sure she had the nerve to squeeze into the black vinyl ensemble which left
very
little to the imagination. After she stretched and struggled into the bustier, hot pants, thigh high fishnets, garters, and black, patent leather boots, she was too afraid to leave the makeshift dressing area. The bustier was squeezing her boobs absurdly, and if someone looked closely (how could they help it), the edges of Simone's pink areola were right there, peeking out for anyone to see.
Simone looked in the mirror, mortified. She couldn't walk out into that room full of assistants and the photographer. Finally, James came back to coax her out into the harsh lights of the temporary studio. He passed her a bowl filed with pine-smelling Indica, which had a mixed effect of turning her on but making her even more self-conscious. This was worse than being naked, she was sure. But as people complimented her with gasps and nods and ... secret looks, Simone stopped feeling so humiliated and vulnerable, and started to feel that she had a kind of power over room. When she shifted her stance, put her hand on her hip, grasped the riding crop, people stared and caught in their breath. They were her subjects and she was their queen. Simone felt like she was intoxicated.
After going through a series of poses, some of which included James in submission to Simone's dominance, it seemed the shoot was coming to an end. Anastasia explained that they had shot a variety of the merchandise and would stop for the day, assuming that the two friends wouldn't want to shoot in the "pony play" gear. James laughed and covered his mouth. Simone had no idea what they were talking about.
