Lyn's place was normal. It was a small house, two stories, no driveway, barely any front lawn. In the front, the property was fenced in, in the back, as Kathy could see past the building, it was surrounded by a tall hedge. It certainly didn't look like anything a university student would own, but that aside it was very ordinary. Almost eerily so.
The three girls arrived together, all of them dressed in light clothes as the sun still shone relentlessly. As Kathy still inspected the surroundings, Jennifer already opened the fenced gate and walked towards the door, closely followed by Lisa, the only off the three who had decided to wear long pants, albeit thin and tight pants. Kathy found herself distracted by the view for a single moment, before she followed them and closed the gate behind her.
The door opened shortly after Jen had rung the bell and the mystery photographer appeared in the doorway. Her hair was longer than Kathy had anticipated, since she had only seen her in close-up photos. The brown mane almost reached her hips and was tied in a loose braid. She was taller than any of them, standing a good two inches over Kathy. Her body was slender, her chest appearing comparatively modest under the airy blouse. It was unbuttoned near the belt, showing off a flat belly. Her long legs were dressed in tight jeans, her feet were bare.
"Jenny", she smiled with her calm voice as she pulled her into a friendly hug, "Early and eager, as always." She gently pushed her past her into the house, before turning slightly and landing a slap directly on the provoking behind of the blonde. "Your things are in the bedroom."
"Whoops!", Jennifer yelped and giggled as she kicked off her shoes and hurried up the stairs.
Lisa and Kathy stepped closer, standing in front of the woman. A certain awe overcame the redhead as she beheld the person before her. Her tall figure and calm demeanour gave her a mature aura that mixed well with her natural beauty.
"Caitlyn, thanks for having us.", Lisa grinned brightly, in no way phased by what had silenced Kathy in an instant. The two hugged.
"No, thank you, for coming, Lillian.", Lyn answered with a smile of her own, putting teasing emphasis on the name.
"That's not even my name.", the girl who wasn't named Lillian smirked. "Oh, this is--"
"Katherine, I presume?", the tall beauty interrupted, turning her attention to Kathy, who immediately felt her back straighten. A pale, soft hand reached for hers and lifted it slightly, high enough for even softer lips to touch the back of it. Kathy felt the blood rush to her face and for a second, her head was nothing but blissful scramble.
"A pleasure." Caitlyn's grey eyes stared into hers, her smile gentle and welcoming.
"Y-yeah, nice to meet you.", Kathy croaked as she found her voice again.
"Come on in, I'll get you a lemonade until Jenny is ready."
Kathy stepped into the hallway and took off her shoes before she followed Lyn into the living room alongside Lisa.
"Don't worry about it.", Lisa whispered with a knowing grin, "She has that kind of effect."
They continued the day with idle conversation as they rested in the air conditioned room, all three of them sitting on leather recliners around the low coffee table. Kathy quickly forgot her setback during the introduction and chatted openly, about university, hobbies and family.
They had been talking several minutes before steps hurried down the stairs and Jennifer burst into the room, dressed in a dark red bikini, consisting of high-leg panties and a halter-neck top, and wedge heeled sandals showing off red painted toenails, her curly hair tied in a high ponytail, free bangs still hanging down, framing her face.
What made her appearance stand out the most, however, were black leather cuffs, all of them featuring several silver D-rings, on her wrists, ankles, thighs and slightly above her elbows and even a fitting collar around her neck. Over her shoulder she carried a small duffle bag.
"Done~!", she declared, striking a pose.
Caitlyn calmly put down her glass and stood up from her recliner, giving the younger girl a quick glance-over before closing in, putting a hand to the back of her head and placing a kiss on her forehead.
"Good girl. Go wait by the pool."
As Jen walked off smiling, Lyn turned to the guests. "Feel free to get changed as well, girls. Work calls."
Kathy and Lisa had both retreated to the bathroom and bedroom respectively to change into their swimsuits. Lisa's was a modest bikini model, the top resembling a sports bra, all in dark blue with a black design. It fit the athletic girl well, in more than one sense. The two of them commented on each other's swimwear on their way downstairs and towards the back door that led into the back yard.
The pool filled almost one half of the yard, the ground around it laid out with stone tiles that led to the small roofed over area just outside the door. Beach chairs and a bench, as well as a small table promised relaxation under the open sky. Two apple trees and an old swing set - without any swings - were to the other side of the yard, everything well-hidden by the tall hedges. Kathy began to understand their purpose.
Caitlyn was busy taking photos of every pose Jenny gave her, standing by the pool, sitting and lying on the closest beach chair. Only few of the photographs would actually be uploaded to the website later, as a way of introducing the outfit and the setting before getting to the core of the set.
The friends sat on the bench, watching the others quietly. After a few more shots, Lyn put down the camera and made her model lie on the chair and take off her sandals before producing something from the duffle bag.
"Bend your legs.", she commanded and pulled the ankle cuffs up to the thigh cuffs, snapping small padlocks into place. Stepping back, she took her camera again. Jennifer, well aware of the process, tried some other poses, showing off and caressing her legs to draw more attention to the new restriction.
Kathy felt a well-known warmth rise in her body. Simply watching already did enough to make her hotter than the sun had all week. Jen knew how to present her body, that much was certain. Unconsciously she bit her lip and pressed her thighs together.
"Are you okay so far?", Lyn asked quietly as she sat behind her shapely model to attach a short, thin chain to the elbow cuffs with padlocks.
"Just peachy.", Jennifer smiled and playfully tugged at the chain.
Lyn's fingers caressed the shoulders and arms of her captive, slowly pushing her hands forward to run her fingers along the edge of the bikini top.
"It fits well, don't you think? I wonder how I know your sizes so well."
"Keep going already!", Jenny giggled and leaned back, patting the taller woman's thigh.
Lyn reached for another chain and two more padlocks, attaching them to the wrist cuffs in front, stretching the chain over Jenny's torso, just below her breasts and locking her forearms to her sides horizontally.
Getting back up, Caitlyn picked up her camera. "Struggle a little for me."
Kathy felt uneasy. She didn't feel weird or out of place at all, like she had feared she would, she actually enjoyed watching, not only the shoot but the little, intimate moments in between the shots as well. She enjoyed them a little too much, in fact. Sitting in plain sight of the others, she felt she shouldn't do anything inappropriate. And what she needed right now was very much inappropriate.
Caitlyn set down the camera again and returned to her model's side.
"Good going.", she commented and pulled her closer, her arms wrapped around Jenny's belly, "Do you want to move on right now?"
"Sure!" Jenny nodded and then lowered her voice: "Looks like someone's not enjoying the show."
Lyn glanced over to the bench were Kathy was sitting upright, her hands in her lap, trying to look anywhere but directly at the model and her photographer. Lisa, not oblivious to the state of her friend, looked from the redhead's blushed expression to Lyn and raised an eyebrow.
"We'll do something about that.", Lyn promised and got up, grabbing the duffle bag.
