If she wanted the shoot so damned bad, she should have been nicer to me. The bitch doesn\u2019t deserve this.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Casey nodded as though the matter was settled. But there was still one thing she wanted to clear up. \u201cSo let me get this straight. You\u2019re going to chain me to the chair at the bottom of the pool. I\u2019m going to have access to an air hose, right? Then you\u2019re going to take a bunch of pictures to send to the director?\u201d<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/riwaslibrary.com\/story\/?attachment_id=16024\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-16024\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-16024\" src=\"https:\/\/riwaslibrary.com\/story\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/au3.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"480\" srcset=\"https:\/\/riwaslibrary.com\/story\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/au3.jpg 640w, https:\/\/riwaslibrary.com\/story\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/au3-300x225.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/a>\u201cYou\u2019re not scared, are you? Everything will be perfectly safe. We have that scuba tank sitting on the side of the pool, and it\u2019s full of air. The hose is plenty long enough to reach you on the bottom. That\u2019s why I had you work on breathing from the regulator earlier without using a dive mask. I want your pictures to be natural: no mask, nose clip or anything like that. Any questions?\u201d Casey shook her head.<\/p>\n<p>Hope Marie smiled at her. \u201cI think you\u2019re going to do just fine. Now let\u2019s get you down into position, ok? I\u2019ll lock you into the chair, but I\u2019ll make sure you have the regulator. Sound good to you?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOk with me,\u201d Casey nodded agreeably.<\/p>\n<p>She wasn\u2019t entirely comfortable with the idea of being chained and padlocked into the chair at the bottom of the pool. But Hope had the key and a sufficient supply of air. She could breathe compressed air easily enough, so that was no problem. Besides, she was willing to make this look realistic if it meant getting that bondage shoot.<\/p>\n<p>She got into the pool and tested the regulator. Air flowed freely; there seemed to be no restrictions. Then she looked down at the chair she would be sitting in.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/riwaslibrary.com\/story\/?attachment_id=16025\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-16025\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-16025\" src=\"https:\/\/riwaslibrary.com\/story\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/au4.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"480\" srcset=\"https:\/\/riwaslibrary.com\/story\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/au4.jpg 640w, https:\/\/riwaslibrary.com\/story\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/au4-300x225.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/a>It looked comfortable enough. She\u2019d already experimented with bondage gear with a couple of boyfriends. She found herself becoming a little aroused at the thought of being locked down at the bottom of the pool.<\/p>\n<p>She swam down and sat in the chair. Hope Marie came down and motioned\u2026 \u201cAre you getting enough air? Casey nodded.<\/p>\n<p>She felt an erotic thrill as Hope began chaining her down. The padlocks completed the bondage look. Casey felt a thrill at being chained, padlocked and vulnerable.<\/p>\n<p>She was now stuck on the bottom of the pool until her audition was over. She would be dependent on Hope Marie for setting her free. She was also dependent on getting all the air she would need. But she was more than willing as she really wanted to get that bondage photo gig.<\/p>\n<p>She inhaled and exhaled, getting used to breathing compressed air. Hope motioned at her\u2026 \u201cEverything ok so far?\u201d Casey nodded at her. It was a little unnerving, but it certainly made her feel kind of sexy\u2026 and more than a little aroused.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/riwaslibrary.com\/story\/?attachment_id=16026\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-16026\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-16026\" src=\"https:\/\/riwaslibrary.com\/story\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/au5.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"480\" srcset=\"https:\/\/riwaslibrary.com\/story\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/au5.jpg 640w, https:\/\/riwaslibrary.com\/story\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/au5-300x225.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/a>Hope Marie surfaced and then grabbed the camera.

April slowly emerged from her hiding place. She glared angrily at what she\u2019d just witnessed.<\/p>\n<p>She looked down to see Casey playfully stretching her legs out.

She followed the hose with her eyes down to the regulator in Casey\u2019s mouth. The bitch kept inhaling and exhaling while experimentally stretching her legs.<\/p>\n<p>A sinister idea came to mind. April walked over to the scuba tank. Then she thought better of it.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI shouldn\u2019t,\u201d she told herself. But her anger returned in a rush. After all, it would be Hope Marie\u2019s fault for not paying closer attention should something happen to Casey, right?<\/p>\n<p>The more Casey playfully posed, the more it galled April.

I guess you shouldn\u2019t have left the key so close to the edge of the pool, you stupid bitch.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>She took the scuba tank with her. She hid it away in the bushes.

Was that bitch trying to scare her by adding a sense of realism to her audition? This was crazy!<\/p>\n<p>She grunted and bubbled as she struggled in the chair. How long would it be before Hope returned with the air hose? What the hell was she doing? Where the hell was she??<\/p>\n<p>&#8212;<\/p>\n<p>Hope Marie emerged from the house with the camera in hand. A fresh set of batteries were now installed. She didn\u2019t think she\u2019d been gone all that long.<\/p>\n<p>She rounded the corner and entered the pool area.
