She's Not Cinderella

The Advantages of a Walk-in Wardrobe

Adeline PoV

"What exactly do you want me to do?" I asked the handsome devil as I sped away in his limo.
"Be my escort!"
I stared at him for a second.
"I am not a prostitute and will never be one." I said bluntly.
William blushed a bit.
"No, not like that! Just, accompany me to those dull parties, concerts, brunches etcetera, and I'll pay you £400 per hour."
My jaw dropped. £400! I could finally stop buying my clothes at the thrift shop!
"Are you sure? I mean, £400..."
"They're really boring, I need some entertainment."
'Entertainment', that's all I was to him, some fiery red-headed chick that he could tease for fun. I didn't like it, but I needed the money to pay off our mortgage so I begrudgingly accepted.
What did I get myself into.?

I stood naked in the middle of the room.
I had never seen a room like it before, it was probably worth more than my entire house.
A huge four poster bed draped with soft silk and luxurious Egyptian cotton stood in the middle, the centrepiece of the room. A plush velvet armchair was just across, next to the door to a huge walk in wardrobe filled with designer dresses, shoes and all sorts of other luxury items.
Upon a gilded coffee table lay a beautiful green satin floor length gown that matched the colour of my eyes. The soft, flowing fabric was gathered at the side into a large bow, and beside it lay a pair of green satin heels embellished with little bows on the ends. There was a little note on the dress.
'Sorry I had to leave, assumed you would want to change alone! Tonight there's a ball at some oil tycoons house... I chose the dress, it matches your eyes! I trust you like Dior? Anyway, you'll find some underwear in the wardrobe (I'm sure there will be some in your size) and ring the bell when your done, and Susanna will come and so your Hair and Makeup. See you Later! William F.' I read. My eyebrows shot up. Why on earth did he have ladies underwear in his wardrobe! What a perv.
I walked over to the door and went in. The room was full of beautiful dresses. A remote beside the door had a list on it.
Lights
Dresses
Suits
Casual
Night
Swim
Lingerie
Bags
Accessories
Shoes
Perfume
I pressed lingerie and hoped for the best. Suddenly the dress racks slid into the walls and out came shelves and shelves of lacy, revealing bras and underwear. I cringed and had a quick look through. They were all in my size.
What!?
I picked out the least low cut out of all of them, and code matching panties. I sneaked a look at the label. they were Armani, and cost £150. I quickly put them on. That was 15 hours work I was wearing.
I peeked outside the room to check no one had come in, and ran over to the green dress. Before I put it on I stroked the smooth, soft satin and then slid it over my shoulders. It fit perfectly. I then put on the green heels, which of course fit perfectly too and peered into the floor length mirror. The dress hugged me in just the right places, bringing out my curves and slimming down my waistline. A long slit in the side showed off my slim legs from three mile walk, seven days a week, and I truly felt like a princess in the luxurious new gown. 'What a pity I have to return it' I thought, admiring the bow, but I shook such thoughts out of my head. 'You could never afford a dress like this, so don't get greedy.'
How wrong I was.

After I rang the bell, a team of young, trendy looking girls came to do my hair and makeup. The girl who seemed to be in charge looked around my age, with long straight black hair and glacier blue eyes. She smiled sweetly at me.
"Hi, I'm Claire, and you must be Adeline! We're here to do your hair and makeup, as you may know. I won't introduce the crew for now, but you'll probably get a chance to talk to them sometime. Anyway, have you used any perfume?"
I shook my head.
"Nope..."
Claire's eyes widened.
"Are you kidding? Master Will bought SO much perfume for you, there is an amazing collection. Come, I'll choose some for you."
She pulled my over to the wardrobe and pressed perfume.
"Wait a second. He bought all this for me?"
"Yeah, of course! There aren't any female Fitzgeralds, except for the Madam, but she wouldn't be wearing any of this."
For some reason my heart fluttered a bit when I realised he had bought this all for me. But when? He's just made one phone call, in the limo... Could he have ordered all this then?
From the many racks of perfumes she picked out a strangely shaped golden bottle.
"This one is perfect. It's Secret Obsession by Calvin Klein."
She sprayed it on her arm and gestured for me to smell. It was musky and exotic, but had sweet undertones.
"Do you like it?"
"I love it!"
Claire led me over to a dressing table where the mirror had been covered with a cloth. She sat me down and called over her crew.
"Now, girls, let's work some magic!"
