Chapter 7 Pre Audition

1899 Words
"This is quite a big event, so make sure everything will go perfectly," said Nina Kirk, owner of Flower modeling agency that represents Diamond Entertainment in the Skyhigh area. She ordered some of his helper to check and fix this and that, scolding those who dissatisfied her and giving little praise to workers she found satisfactory. Nina has high standards and excellent performance in her work, so she was appointed by Diamond entertainment to represent them as agent at Skyhigh. Nina herself was just informed yesterday by an official from the Diamond entertainment head office that the model she will represent will come and participate in tonight's cocktail party, which is actually intended as well as a pre-audition event to select a model who will represent the hosting company as a their brand ambassador, namely the Franzine industry which is the largest industrial center in Skyhigh which controls the world of entertainment, hospitality and tourism. More or less Nina knows how much the funding, Franzine industry, provides and judging by the amount, Nina really wants everything to go perfect and whoever the model her agent represents will make it to the finals and be chosen as an ambassador for Franzine Industry. She had no idea who the woman who was touted as the most famous and most expensive model from Diamond Entertainment was, because they did not provide any information other than saying that she would soon find out exactly who the model was. In front of the Moonlight hotel, the taxi that Lea was riding in stopped. The taxi driver helped Lea unload her suitcase and Lea walked into the grand hotel lobby with graceful and confident steps. Several pairs of eyes followed Lea's steps in awe and not that Lea was unaware, there were also several werewolves trying to sniff the air to smell her she-wolf scent. Lea grinned sarcastically and didn't care, and Nada, too, who wasn't bothered at all. Lea's phone vibrated in her coat pocket as she stood in the elevator. It was a call from her boss in America, Ms. Sissy Nolan. "Hello, Ms. Nolan," said Lea. "Hello dear, have you arrived at the Moonlight hotel?" Sissy asked. "You haven't informed me since the last time you messaged me at the airport." "I just arrived and am now waiting for the elevator to take me to the top floor," Lea answered politely. "Thank you for choosing me to represent the company at this event, Ms. Nolan. It means a lot to me." Sissy chuckled. "Don't thank me, Lea, it's all because of your hard work these past years. You deserve it." "Yes, Ms. Nolan. I promise not to let you down." "Remember, Lea, you have to look perfect tonight, because if you don't, then you won't qualify for the preliminaries for bigger events. This fashion show is a pre audition with an open system where many people will judge your appearance and especially there will be several well-known judges who will observe and judge you from various sides." "I understand, Ms. Nolan. I'll do my best." "I believe in you. You also know how many prizes you can have if you pass the auditions and step into the main events which are bigger and grander, right? Franzine Industries never plays around with providing funds, so it's only natural that they stipulate standards are very high in the selection of corporate ambassadors." "Yes, Ms. Nolan, I will give my best tonight, so that I can go all the way to the final and earn the title of brand ambassador for Franzine industry." Sissy smiled at the confidence in Lea's voice. "Who knows, you might have the chance to meet the owner of Franzine industry in person. I hear he's very manly and handsome, mainly because of his intelligence to take over the kingdom at such a young age." Lea laughed politely at Sissy's remark and thanked her again before hanging up. She had missed the lift doors opening twice while talking to Sissy Nolan, because that kind woman was hard to stop when she was talking. Lea gets to the 35th floor of the Moonlight hotel, where the cocktail party is being held and soon she gets to see Nina Kirk, her former agent five years ago, who will now be returning to represent her as agent during the company ambassador audition for the Franzine industry. Lea walked over to the woman who was standing with her back to her. "Ms. Kirk," Lea said in a calm tone. Nina turned around and was very surprised when she saw who had reprimanded her. Lea did ask Sissy Nolan not to tell her about being a Diamond entertainment representative at Skyhigh, when she knew which agent would take care of it. "Lea Ariane Braven!" Nina exclaimed wide-eyed. She really couldn't believe her own eyes. Five years ago, her best model disappeared without news and she was frustrated that her agency had several setbacks after Lea's departure. At that time, although Lea was still a teenager, her unique beauty and beautiful body shape made the modeling world at Skyhigh develop rapidly. The woman before Nina was Lea in an adult version, much prettier with an impression of grace and maturity that exuded perfection. Moreover, her body also made Nina give a big Wow inside her mind. Very perfect and very beautiful curved. "Lea Ariane Amarin," corrected Lea in a formal tone. "I think Ms. Nolan told you that I would be representing Diamond entertainment in the Franzine industry brand ambassador audition." Nina was a little surprised by the cold and stiff attitude shown by Lea. They hadn't seen each other in five years and she had been an agent for Lea for a year before, but Lea acted as if they had just met. Nina swallowed her saliva, feeling the strong aura of the woman in front of her radiating more and more clearly. At least for this one thing, Lea didn't change. "I'm glad to be your agent again, Lea," Nina said in a reluctant tone. "Seeing your appearance, I'm sure you will go through this pre-audition without difficulty. You are so ... perfect." Leah smiled faintly. "Thank you, Nina. I'll try my best, because Diamond entertainment has given me an opportunity that I definitely won't waste. Now, where can I change?" Nina showed Lea the room she had been prepared for. The cocktails were in two hours, so Lea had enough time to get ready. Two hours later, Lea entered the hall where the cocktail party was being held with aplomb. She wore a long, deep blue dress that wrapped her body perfectly, revealing a long, pearl-colored neck and beautiful smooth shoulders. Her long legs looked beautiful every time she stepped because of the slit of her dress which was quite high. Her makeup is flawless, not too overdone and brings out her natural beauty well. Her hair is curly, fashioned into a haphazard bun which actually makes her appearance look natural. Nina welcomes Lea and introduces her to some of the judges who will do the judging secretly. After that, Nina asked Lea to mingle with the other guests, because she had received a leak that Franzine Industry would also take into account the random judgments of the invited guests at this cocktail show about the models running for the audition. Nina was very satisfied to see how Lea carried herself well. She was talking to one of the guests when she saw the arrival of one of her other models. "Fely, why are you late?" asked Nina a little annoyed. She watched Fely's appearance and was very satisfied. She was stunningly beautiful with a touch of natural delicacy, in a long pale pink dress, perfect makeup and hairdo. "Nina, I heard, there are only five models who will be selected in this pre-audition," Fely said in an annoyed tone. "That's very little, considering that many well-known modeling agencies have included their models in this event." Nina rubbed Fely's shoulder to calm her down. "Don't worry, Fely, I will make sure you and Lea will get a place in those five seats. You two are very charming and I'm sure just by looking at your appearance now, the judges will be impressed." Fely grabbed Nina's arm. "Wait! Lea? Lea who?" asked Fely angrily. Nina was surprised and a little hurt because Fely gripped her hand quite tightly. "Lea Ariane, your half sister, Fely," Nina answered with a grin. Fely grinned and pulled Nina to a rather quiet corner. "What do you mean, Lea, my half-sister? She's disappeared and hasn't come back since our father kicked her out from our pack. How can she have a place in such a big event?" "Fely, she is here, as a representative for Diamond entertainment and she came directly from America this afternoon. Diamond entertainment appointed me to be her agent because they know that in the past I was also an agent for her." Fely snorted harshly. "Show me, where is she? I have to see her myself!" Nina was surprised to see the emotion on Fely's face and she felt sure that something terrible had happened between the two stepsisters. Lea changes her last name, disappears for five years, and hearing Fely blurt out that Lea was kicked out of the Windclaw pack, makes Nina shudder. Nina pointed at Lea who was talking with a famous wedding dress designer and Fely gasped when she saw her. Lea was very different from the last time Fely remembered. She has become much more beautiful, graceful and sexy. Feelings of jealousy and worry make Fely tremble. Again, Lea will be her toughest rival. Fely felt ridiculous because all this time she was sure that Lea would not come back. Her attempts to manipulate Dalton and Garry and have them as her strongest supporters, may be ruined again by Lea, considering she suddenly appears and appears more charming after years of absence. Fely will not let that happen. She would keep Leah in her lowly place. Fely took Nina's hand. "Nina, you know what my dad and my fiancé can do if they find out I've been hurt, right?" Fely asked in a sly tone. Nina swallowed hard. "Y-yes, I know." "You won't forget what helped you and your nearly bankrupt agent gave you after that b***h left, would you?" "Y-yes." "Great! So it's time for you to return the favor, or I could just say to my dad or Garry, that you've make me missed a great opportunity. How about it?" Nina looked at Fely's face who was smiling sweetly. She just felt happy because of Lea's arrival and is optimistic that his agency will grow even more with Lea and Fely as the mainstays. Nina knew very well the meaning of Fely's question earlier. She had to choose Fely's side, whatever she wanted, because even though Lea was sent by Diamond entertainment, the Windclaw pack's power behind Fely, plus the support from the Lakeclaw pack led by Garry--his fiancé, was much stronger than Lea's power. Lea was no longer part of Windclaw and that left her with a weak family bond. She was alone and it might be a big risk if something happened later. "W-what should I do, Fely?" asked Nina with a heavy heart. "Make her fail the audition!" Fely said firmly. Nina was stunned. ***
