Leap OF Fate

Chapter 32

The night finally came. Loud EDM music filled the air. Serene sat in the makeshift tent for the models.

She was sitting on a stool as she waited for her hair and makeup to be done.

Once finished, she collected her first outfit and changed. She wrapped herself with a robe, feeling the

goosebumps forming on her arms from the cold.

After a short while, the organizers called them and arranged them in order of appearance. Serene

gently blew her breaths as she calmed her nerves. It’s been a long time since she last walked the

runway. The task looked and sounded easy, but it was daunting. A lot could happen in a live show, from Upstodatee from Novel(D)ra/m/a.O(r)g

missing a step to wardrobe malfunction.

She heard the emcee introduce the show, and the light from the stage darkened, adding to the drama.

One by one, the girls before her disappeared as she found herself closer and closer to the stage.

She let out a big sigh, removed her silk robe and gave it to the assistant. The moment she stepped

onto the stage, the spotlight blinded her. Her heart beat to the music.

She naturally walked down the runway, her high ponytail swaying with every step she made. When she

was at the end of the runway, she posed, placing her hand on her waist and arching her back. She then

smoothly turned around and gave the audience a playful wink.

When she reached the backstage, she accepted the new set of clothes and went for a quick change.

Serene felt naked in her outfit. It made her very self-conscious and felt an imaginary wedgie as a tiny

triangle of cloth embraced her bottom.

The makeup artists and hairstylists flocked on her as they swiftly fixed her hair and makeup. This time,

they gave her long hair bouncy curls. They also helped her into costume wings that felt like a ton.

She put on the best smile she had when her feet once again stepped on the runway. She could feel her

breasts bouncing with every step she made. Because the lights were so bright, she hardly saw the

expressions on the audience’s faces.

Among the crowd that admired her toned body was Justin. His glass stopped midway when he saw her

come out of the stage like an angel. Her smile brightened her face. But his face darkened a little when

he saw the pathetic excuse for a swimsuit she was wearing.

They were so skimpy it hardly hid anything at all. He held his breath with every move she made. She’s

simply breathtaking, and he hated the thought that so many people saw how amazing she looked. He

wanted to go up onto the stage and take her away.

When Serene reached the end of the runway, she gave her signature pose, turned around, and winked.

She then walked to the back of the stage to line up with the other girls for the last walk. The assistants

help her remove the heavy wings she wore.

Mary met her at the back of the stage. She was wearing a light maxi dress, the hem of which flowed

dreamily as the wind blew on them. Serene rolled her eyes at her. She was practically naked while

Mary was completely covered. Of course Mary knew what was running in Serene’s mind. She just

lovingly laughed at her.

Mary took her icy hand and kissed her cheek. They walked out of the runway together. As the designer,

she gave a quick bow to the audience. Serene and the other girls clapped their hands in applause.

Soon as Serene reached the backstage, she quickly changed to more comfortable clothes. She wore a

scooped-back shirt and a wrap-around skirt that reached her ankles. She coiled her hair in a bun.

The show was a success, and Mary was busy attending to her visitors. Serene hated crowds, so she

looked for a quiet corner to settle in, away from the rest.

From a distance, with pride in her eyes, she watched her best friend accept people’s congratulations.

She was so happy for her. It was Mary’s lifelong dream to have her own clothing line, and here she

was, making that dream happen. She smiled widely as she continued to watch her best friend.

“You look gorgeous.” The familiar warm voice startled her. She turned around to confirm her thoughts.

“Justin?” What is he doing here?

“Hi.” He was smiling as he slowly approached her. He casually dressed today. He was wearing a white

shirt over loose grey soft pants. His wind blown hair added to his charm. He looked so breathtaking,

Serene felt like suffocating.

“Why are you here?”

“Albert invited me.”

“I see. So, you’ve seen…” She’s embarrassed to ask if he saw her walk in that skimpy outfit.

He was dangerously close. She could smell his manly scent. The night breeze was chilly, but she could

feel the warmth creeping in between her thighs.

Justin wrapped his arm around her waist and buried his face in her neck. Serene closed her eyes. She

felt Justin’s crotch on her back. It drove her crazy.

“Yes, and you were divine.” Justin breathed in her ears, giving her earlobe a gentle bite. Serene gave a

tiny moan which drove him crazy. He turned her around and gave her a kiss. He hungrily explored her

mouth, his tongue prying open her teeth to meet with hers.

She wrapped her tongue around his, earning a moan from him. Both of their mouths and hands

explored each other. Justin’s hand slid to her bottom and gave it a squeeze. She cannot help but moan

into his mouth. His hand was so close to her center it drove her crazy.

Serene lifted her hands to his neck and found their way to the hair at his nape. She interlaced her

fingers in them, leaning in closer to him, feeling his hardening front on her stomach.

Both of them were catching their breaths when they separated. Justin’s gaze bored into her. His eyes

that were full of lust and passion swept her face, his fingers touched her lips which were still sore from

their intense kiss. He pulled her closer to him and gave a long kiss on her forehead.

Quietly, they held each other. Him embracing her waist and her wrapping her hands around his body.

She sniffed his masculine scent. He smelled the top of her head. Their heartbeats raced in rhythm. She

closed her eyes, savoring the incredible moment they shared.
