After they finished with the throne photoshoot, Aphrodite moved towards one of the sofas in the room and was about to lie down when Adam passed her a riding crop and handcuffs that he had pulled out of the bag he had been carrying and passed them to her.
After she took the riding crop and flashed Adam a flirtatious smile, Aphrodite began to lie down on the sofa in the same way that Adam had shown her in the photo earlier, while hanging the handcuffs on one of her stiletto heels, before she bit the end of the riding crop and stared at the camera with dominating eyes.
[LadyErkath (Deverinian Prime): What exactly am I witnessing here?]
[OrangeeyedStace (Felinia 7): 😮]
"I'm not too sure about that myself," Rowena replied as Eri began to take photos after getting over her own surprise.
"I recognise the handcuffs from last night, but what's that thing Aphrodite is biting on?" Lorelie asked.
"Handcuffs?" Rowena asked.
[LadyErkath (Deverinian Prime): I was about to ask the same thing.]
"It's a riding crop," Adam began to explain. "There is an animal back on Earth that people ride called a horse. Before the invention of the automobile, the horse was the primary form of transport. A riding crop is used to help control the horse.
In this case, however," Adam said before indicating Aphrodite and continuing, "it's used to control the animal that she would be dominating. It can be used for control and also as punishment by whipping it against the animal.
As for handcuffs, those are.." Adam then went on to explain to Rowena and Erkath what the handcuffs were used for.
As Adam was explaining the toys to the other women, Aphrodite, who was in the middle of her photoshoot, was trying to control her lust that had been building ever since she felt Adam's eyes on her in her outfit. She was trying to understand why her body was reacting in this way and why he had such an effect on her.
She had been stared at by countless men and women of who knows how many races over her life, and while she liked the attention, she had never felt the same excitement and her body had never reacted the same way as when Adam looked at her.
While the attention of Lorelie, Rowena, Erkath and Eri also excited and pleased her, it was Adams' attention she found craving the most and felt a rush of excitement every time she felt his eyes upon her, if only for a moment.
{I want him, I need him, I want him, I need him, I want him, I need him, I want him, I need him.} She found herself thinking almost uncontrollably and it took every ounce of her self-control to keep control of her succuba powers so that they would not flood out and affect everyone in the building.
"So those are what you used to bind Aphrodite to the chair last night?" Rowena asked with a smirk.
"She told you about that, did she?" Adam asked.
"Yup. She also mentioned that you're a fan of my ass," Rowena replied with a signature grin while shooting Lorelie the same teasing look who just rolled her eyes in response.
"Have you ever met anyone who isn't a fan?" Adam replied calmly, causing Rowena to be mildly disappointed at the lack of response from the two lovers.
"Not yet," Rowena replied.
"No real surprise there, your ass could put Ren Rowassion to shame," Adam replied.
"Who?" Rowena asked.
"She's a celebrity back on Earth known for her amazing ass," Adam explained.
"I see," Rowena replied before asking, "I take it you're an ass guy and not a tits guy?"
"Oh, he's totally an ass guy," Lorelie said with a smirk.
"I like both, but if I had to choose one, I would choose ass," Adam replied.
"Glad to hear it," Rowena said with her signature smirk.
"Is that because you're proud of your ass, or because you want Adam to like it?" Lorelie asked suspiciously.
"Who knows," Rowena replied with a shrug as she focused back on Aphrodite.
"That should do it," Eri said as she took one last photo of Aphrodite.
"Let's have a look then," Aphrodite said in excitement as she quickly got off the sofa and approached Eri.
[LadyErkath (Deverinian Prime): Someone's keen. 😋]
"Of course. This could change the lives of every person in the adult entertainment industry," Aphrodite replied after seeing Erkath's comment.
[LadyErkath (Deverinian Prime): Let's hope for your and their sake that the photos are good enough then.]
Eri fiddled with her uniband for a few moments before dozens of different holographic screens suddenly appeared in the air around the group of four people.
"These are all the photos I have taken today and am satisfied with. I hope they meet your requirements and expectations," Eri said as each of the holographic screens showed a different photo of each of the three divas.
[LadyErkath (Deverinian Prime): I must say I'm impressed. When Lorelie mentioned that she wanted you to be the photographer, I must admit that I had my reservations, and while they are not at the standard of a professional photographer, they are still very close and with some training, you could indeed become a successful professional photographer.]
"That's what I said," Rowena said with a smile.
[LadyErkath (Deverinian Prime): Well, you were correct. I apologise for doubting you, Eri, we can indeed use most, if not all of these photos that you have taken.]
"Does that mean?" Aphrodite asked hopefully.
[LadyErkath (Deverinian Prime): Yes, that includes your photos as well, Diva Aphrodite.]
"Yay," Aphrodite cheered happily and beamed a wide smile.
"How quickly will you release them?" Rowena asked.
[LadyErkath (Deverinian Prime): A few hours. I need that long to inspect each of them closely and choose the best. Once that's done, I will release them to the press and post them on the Erkath Fashions site. We can officially commence sales of our new line of clothing, Earth Fashion, tomorrow. 😁]
"What about the accessories, such as sunglasses, have you been able to reproduce those?" Adam asked curiously.
[LadyErkath (Deverinian Prime): Naturally. We have even improved them by using a state-of-the-art material that offers greater protection than those on Earth and even connects with the owners' uniband, so they can view notifications, messages and even take calls using the sunglasses.]
"Impressive. Something similar has been attempted before back on Earth, but it never really took off," Adam replied.
"I will send you the photos over immediately then," Rowena replied before adding, "Also, let me know if there are any interview requests, which I'm sure there will be."
[LadyErkath (Deverinian Prime): We have already started receiving those from the different fashion media companies. However, I have been holding them off for now by telling them that we won't be doing any more interviews until Earth Fashion officially launches.]
"All right. Once Earth Fashion launches. Send me the details on who wishes to interview us and we will decide who to accept and who to refuse."
[LadyErkath (Deverinian Prime): That's fine. Though if USNN request a follow-up interview, I suggest we agree to do it since it was their article that helped build people's excitement for Earth Fashion.]
"That's fine, but inform them that we will only accept if it's Sinead Quintana who is doing the interview. It was her USNN article originally, after all," Rowena replied.
[LadyErkath (Deverinian Prime): I didn't know you were a Sinead fan. 🤨]
"I'm not, it's just that she is one of the top reporters in the industry, and building a friendly rapport with her won't hurt," Rowena explained.
[LadyErkath (Deverinian Prime): Makes sense. I will keep you informed. Make sure to send the photos over immediately.]
[[LadyErkath (Deverinian Prime) has left the stream.]]
[OrangeeyedStace (Felinia 7): I'm also going to head off and check on Tephe. 😘]
[[OrangeeyedStace (Felinia 7) has left the stream.]]
[[Ending Stream.]]
"She didn't even say goodbye," Aphrodite said in an offended tone that was obviously fake since she still had a wide smile on her face.
"She gets like that when she loses herself in work. It just shows how much potential she sees in Earth Fashion," Rowena replied while sending the photos over to Erkath, after which a notification popped up that made her smile and say.
"Koki sent me the credits."
"Are you sending her the file then?" Adam asked curiously as he began to pack stuff back into the bag.
"Just sent it," Rowena replied before adding, "I think we're done here."
"Yup, just let me go get changed," Aphrodite stated before heading for the dressing room.
"So what are you going to do now?" Rowena asked as she turned to Lorelie.
"What do you mean?" Lorelie asked as she tilted her head in confusion.
"I mean, regarding the post by the Universal Sporting Body," Rowena replied before asking, "Are you going to make a statement on your Xer-verse account as Aphrodite suggested?"
"Yup," Lorelie replied with a nod before continuing, "I already planned to do that and now that Oracle Andromeda has stated that she will back up my post, I'm even more determined to do so."
