Chapter 2
Ice Cold
"some body, anybody please help me! " I whispered under my cry's. Curled up in a ball in the corner of the room, I hugged my knees to keep me warm. Cuts and bruises shamed all over my body.
Hearing a noise of a door opening and closing, I notice a man come towards me. "Ready for round two whore" he breathed over me with his alcohol breath.
"Please you don't have to keep doing this, just let me go I wont tell anyone" I pleaded.
He grabbed hold of my hair and dragged me across the concrete fall to the bed. "LET ME GO" I screamed.
A sharp pain of a fist came in contact with my face. "Hahaha, why would I do that when we have so much fun" his voice was low and husky. I felt my lip burst open and all I could do was kick and scream, hoping I got a good punch in.
"Stop screaming and lay still or il give you something to scream about" His eyes were covered by a mask, hands roughly grabbing me and pulling me about. He tied me up and all I can do was scream "STOPPP!".
Shooting up from my pillow, I tried to catch my breath and calm my panicked state. Sweat dripped down my face. Laying back into my pillow I looked and checked the time on my phone. "5.30 fuck sake".
Rubbing my eyes I got out of bed and headed into the kitchen; grabbing a glass of water I went across the living room to sit and look out the window. "Why am I dreaming of this again, I'm over it, he's fucking dead get a grip girl".
Angry at my self I drank my water and stormed towards the bedroom. Placing myself on the edge of the bed I caught sight of my unpacked suitcase "What the heck, might aswel sort you out as I'm not going back to sleep after that dream".
By 6.20am I had unpacked, showered, dried my hair and got dressed. To all my photo shoots I wear casual comfy but in fashion clothes, as being an underwear model no one cares about your day to day clothes. I chose my over sized black and white stripped jumper with black leggings and my Ugg hiking style boots. Grabbing my coat and scarf I headed towards Alice's door.
#KNOCK KNOCK
Alice opened the door not paying full attention, only to her iPad. "Morning" I said with a big smile on my face.
"Oh morning Cass your up and dressed... On time" her face was just shocked.
"I thought we could grab some breakfast and a coffee before we go"
"Yeh, sure let me grab the stuff and we can go" her voice still sounded surprised.
After a bagel and a coffee I was ready to take on anything. The press was all stood outside waiting for us to come out, I grabbed my sunglasses and headed for the door, Alice in front of me.
Getting into the limo was a hassle I had press all up in my face shouting god knows what question to me. To top it all off the ground had frozen over in the night so one wrong step and I'm over.
"Pheww that was hard work" I said once I closed to door. Looking across at Alice she had her professional face on her; Scary look.
"We have a really busy day today. We should be done with the Dior shoot at about 11.30am, were meeting Moscow Times at 12.30pm for an interview on the USA Victoria Secret, then we will meet for a late lunch with the deputy manger of Hiwatari Corporation for you to be apart of there campaign for under privileged and homeless children and families around Russia, that should last for a few hours and last a press conference for you to answer questions about returning to Russia. Any questions?."
"Err...Nope I think I got it" I said in a silly voice while doing a funny face. She just rolled her eyes trying not to laugh.
I couldn't help but think Hiwatari Corporation, I wonder what poor bastard got stuck with cleaning that mess up after biovolt got found out.
After 20mins of driving we arrived at an old warehouse building. A man waiting outside to greet us on arrival. He was tall slim tanned very pretty looking. "Good morning Miss Valkov and Miss Heart, come right this way"
Entering the building there were people running round everywhere setting up props and extra lighting. Knowing I am not needed for any of that I headed straight over to hair and make-up.
I had lose waves and natural make-up with a pinky cheek bones. While getting into my first bit of underwear I heard my afar reign called from across the room. "Cassia angel" It was the photographer.
"Petrel, lovely to see you again. How do I look?" I stood posing for him, giving him a twirl.
"Beautiful as always. How do you like the new collections?" His Russian accent always made me feel warm.
"They are amazing, I still can't believe they wanted me to represent the Russian line" I was so happy.
"We'll of course, you are the 'Ice Angel' it fits perfect plus you have Russian blood" he stated with a strong tone. "Come now get them icy eyes over there let's get started, we don't have all morning" I did as I was told and took my place.
After 10 different outfits we looked over the photos and we was all happy. "Cass hurry and get dressed we have the Moscow Times to get to in 30minutes" Alice was always worrying about being there late or something going wrong. "Yes yes I'm going".
After saying thank you and bye to everyone, we heading back into Moscow. "I think that went really well, the new line is amazing don't you think? " I said with a big grin to Alice.
"You are like a child Cass, but yes you and the line looked amazing as you always do. Now I have a list of question here that the newspaper are going to ask you, do you want me to read them out?" I looked at her and thought about it for a second.
"Nah, they said its just about Victoria secret and stuff right? So it will be easy" I said in such a cocky way.
"As long as your sure babe?" Alice spoke in her stern voice.
"Il be fine what's the worst that can happen?"
*scene change *
So far I was happy with way the interview was going. The reporter had a voice recorder on the table, plus a pen and paper in her hands. She was wearing a red suit with a white blouse and black shoes, her hair pulled back into a bun and way two much make-up.
"People name you 'Cassia the ice angel' how did you take that from when you first heard it?"
"Flattered more than anything, I know my eyes were a big part of the reason I am as well known to people"
"Victoria secret what did it feel like being asked to do such a big event?" She said.
"Victoria secret was the making of my success, at first I was just going along with it as abit of fun and cash but then it became serious. After being ask to shoot more and be included in the run way shows, wearing the main lines and I realised it could be the making of a big carrier for me." I spoke in a polite and happy manor.
"What was your life like before Victoria secret and all this fame?"
"Both me and my manager Alicia Heart was in university... sorry college studying business, I failed most of my exams as Alicia she A+ them all. I was doing photo shoots for friends to build there portfolios up and I realised that the photos were quite good and I enjoyed doing it. So Alicia became my manager and with the right contacts and her business skills, boom the rest is history"
"See I heard you fail your exams because you were on a down slope from a rocky relationship and was a party animal drinking, drug using. Is that true?"
My face about dropped to the floor. "EXCUSE ME?" I could not believe what she just said to me, I felt my body go ice cold. All I could do was looked at Alice in horror.
"It's a simple question really, what's hard to understand?" The woman spoke with a cocky look on her face.
Alice spoke up "That is not a question of fact that is an accusation, plus what does that have to do with anything on the article? Also the last two questions you have asked were not in the list you e-mailed me. You don't have to answer that question Cassia"
I gave a look at the woman in front of me, I was stumped I didn't no what to do or say.
"Ok, so your not going to answer my question?" The reporter looked at me with a disappointed smile but satisfying look.
"As my manager said that accusation is not relevant to anything, but I will answer it for you miss up my own fucking arse. Yes I was a bit of a party girl in college who isn't. Yes I like to go out have a drink and socialise but let's get one thing straight, I did not take fucking drugs and I did not fail over some boyfriend. I chose a different career which was more suitable for me, which now has paid off in the long run. Now write that in your article, Anymore questions?" With a smile on my face I looked at her and she was stunned at me.
As I stood up I said "No? good. Thank you for a lovely interview and I hope to see you soon" I grabbed Alice and walked out of the room.
Alice called for the limo to come round and pick us up. We was only at the Moscow Times for 20minutes. "What a fucking bitch" I scolded while climbing into the limo.
"Cassia. I'm worried this lash out is going to affect your publicity now, she isn't going to write good things in this article in fact I can almost guarantee your 'miss stuck up your own arse' comment will go in there nicely" Alice stated while trying not to laugh.
"Let her, if she's any good at her job she will know by now I don't play nice with journalist like her " Alice gave me a slight smile handed me a bottle of water before getting out her iPad to see what's up next.
"Iv just had an e-mail saying that the owner of Hiwatari Enterprise wants to meet with you, but he will be running about 10minutes late for the meeting. His name is Mr..Kai.. Hiwatari it says here soo were proba..."
I cut Alice off by spitting back out the water I just drank. "Did you just say KAI Hiwatari? As in two toned blue and grey hair grandson of the evil Voltaire Hiwatari who originally owned biovolt and tried to take over the world that Kai Hiwatari?" I said in all one breathe.
"Errrr I guess so why and how on earth do you know so much about that?" Alice seemed all confused on my reaction. After calming down I answered "He's an old...let say friend".
"Cass that's great, you get to meet an old friend plus I didn't tell you that he asked specifically for you to be apart of the campaign, so I'm assuming he's looking forward to seeing you" Alice said with a big smile steering at me.
"Do you know who the Deputy manager is? Who we originally meant to meet?" Curious I am.
"Err... Nope just said the time and where they wanted to meet. Why?"
"Just wondered that's all" I said while grinning but she could see right through that I knew something, but I wasn't about to tell her.
After 20minutes drive we pulled up right outside 'Hiwatari Enterprise'. It's one of the biggest building in Moscow. All mirrored black and grey glass with a massive sign at the top.
Alice was on the phone to the Moscow Times, from what I could hear they were complaining about terminating the meeting and not doing photos before we left. "Both me and Miss. Valkov do not appreciate accusations that she was making toward Miss Valkov, the last two questions were not written down in the scrip I had your journalist e-mailed me; This was meant to be an interview on how Victoria secret kicked off her career and why she has returned to Russia after 8 years."
Alice face was a picture, her face was going red from anger. I couldn't help but do a silent laugh at her. "Both me and Miss Valkov are happy with the information she gave to you, if you are not then I except a full written apology. That's if you want the interview to go any further including photos, other than that good day sir" Alice put the phone down and did one massive breathe.
"Coffee babe" I said trying not to laugh.
"YES please".
We got out the car and headed straight inside. It was full of people running around, going to meetings, chatting and lunch dates. Noticing from the corner of my eye a Starbucks over in the corner. I tapped Alice and went straight to it.
"Two lattes to go please" Alice asked the woman at the counter.
Once we got out coffees and Alice finished e-mailing Moscow Times we was only 5 mintues early. Heading over to the main desk a lady with red mid length hair, wearing a black and white dress was behind the desk. "Hello, welcome to Hiwatari Corporation, how can I help you today?" The lady had a lovely smile and cheerful voice.
"Hello, we have a meeting at 1.45 the name is Heart and Valkov" said Alice.
"Arh yes, your on the top floor, the elevator is just to your left with Hiwatari written on the top above the door. You will need this key card to access the elevator. I shall let them know at reception that your on your way up. Anything else I can help you with lady's?"
"No I think that's it thank you"
While walking to the elevator my heart started to pound. What's wrong with me it's only Kai no one special. "Cass are you ok? You look a little nervous?" Alice trying to hide her laughter.
"Yes I'm fine, why wouldn't I be" I lied. The door opened and we stepped inside. Alice pressed the button and it started to go up.
"I think it's quite romantic ya'know, not seen each other since you were kids, he finds out your coming to Russia and wants you to be apart of his work venture. Sounds like he's wanting to keep you close" Alice had this smirk on her face which turned me redder than red could be.
"It's not that Alice, when I left Russia I left on bad terms so... I don't know; let's just see what he's got to say before we start going all romantic on it" trying to hide my nerves I just kept drinking my coffee
"Ok what ever you say..." Alice laughing.
#Ding
The doors started to open; 'Here we go'.
