King of Hollywood

Chapter 386: Chapter 108: Nervous as Home Approaches

Nakama Yukie lay on her back on the large hotel bed, staring at the ceiling with wide eyes. The chandelier, only partially turned on, cast a soft glow that made her white dress seem almost pure. From the bathroom, the sound of running water could be faintly heard; Tokiwa was taking a shower, and the American gentleman she was meant to attend to, was most likely in the hotel bar discussing matters with his friends.

Past images continuously flooded her mind, scattering her thoughts. She remembered almost ten years ago when she had first done voice-overs for animations. By then, she already harbored the idea of becoming an artist, and she had strived tirelessly until, three years ago, she finally began to realize her dream. She was noticed by the producer of the Okinawan TV drama “Blue Summer” and thereby became a signed actress with her current agency.

She had also heard about the things within the entertainment circle. Both the veterans in the agency and her own manager had warned and taught her how to protect herself. She thought she had managed them with these skills until one should be enough, and devoted herself to training. She lost her baby fat, shaped her body to perfection with the help of a stylist, and was even praised by several predecessors as a promising new talent. Originally, she was recommended by her agency to join a certain idol group in Tokyo, but that was when her misfortune began.

She was shocked by their demands, though she tried hard to endure, it showed on her face. She wanted to refuse, but the smiling face that spoke those words carried an irrefutable tone. The implications were clear—if she wasn’t willing, she could forget about making it in this industry. Angered, they treated her as if she were merchandise, being passed around! She would rather give up this readily available opportunity than comply!

She had her resolve, but a senior from the agency helplessly told her that even if she quit the entertainment industry right then, she must fulfill their demands to leave, otherwise…

The senior looked at her sympathetically and with profound meaning but said no more, recalling the various things she had heard before, her heart felt ice cold. She wasn’t particularly conservative; she just wanted her first time to be with someone she loved, despite being ridiculed by many classmates during school. She persisted in her belief, but today…

However, she had no choice, coupled with the ingrained submissiveness of Japanese women, she finally gave in and was delivered, like a meal, to that man’s room. Although she tried to control the humiliation, the pain she felt when he entered her body involuntarily made her sob.

She initially thought this would infuriate him or excite him more, knowing some men liked it that way. But instead, he became unexpectedly gentle, and his loving caresses and kisses not only relaxed her completely but also let her fully appreciate the pleasures of sex. The next day, apart from some difficulty walking, she surprisingly didn’t feel too bad; he indeed was a peculiar man.

“Yukie, would you like to take a shower?” Tokiwa’s voice came at that moment, and Yukie, brought back from her reminiscing, quickly sat up.

“In a little while, senior Tokiwa,” Yukie replied with a polite smile, her features perfectly aligned, her gentle and virtuous smile coupled with the innocence of a young girl making her look very pure.

“Alright,” Tokiwa nodded as she sat on the sofa drying her hair, paused, and then asked, “Do you have… any worries, Yukie?”

“Worries?” Yukie wanted to say no, but looking into Tokiwa’s eyes, she fell silent again.
