I knew poses like that weren't unusual in this industry, but I didn't want to go down that road again. It reminded me too much of the questionable jobs I'd once taken just to pay off my debts.
I had no intention of doing that again in this lifetime. Modeling was never my end goal anyway. Today's shoot was nothing more than a stepping stone, just my very first step into the entertainment industry.
"I'm sorry, Zayne," I said gently but firmly. "You can talk about the work through my manager, and if I like the offer, I'll reach out to you."
Good thing Zayne didn't press the matter any further, so I went straight to the changing room.
Since I didn't want the hassle of removing my makeup at home, I cleaned it off at the studio instead. Once that was done, I changed out of the photoshoot clothes and pulled on my hoodie because I was too lazy to bother with anything more proper.
Besides, Mr. Silo was already supposed to be waiting for me out front, and I planned to head straight home.
