Hidden Love

Chapter 26: Daddy's Little Princess

Angelo Sanders POV
I exited my car and walked to Normani's front door. I knocked on the door but it slowly opened, making a creaking sound. I heard Freek'n'You being played by Jodeci. The soothing music flowed through my ears and I could already feel the atmosphere. I heard snapping, sounded like a camera.

I was here to try and convince Normani to turn up at the photo shoot. Although Bria pissed her off, she really wants Normani to the face of her brand new lingerie line.

I walked into Normani's photo studio room and noticed that she had moved her couches into there. Damn, she looked really good. I ran my tongue over my lips and I folded my arms, watching her work her magic. Now I can see why Bria wanted her. I pulled on my chin hair and just admired the way she worked in front of the camera. I couldn't remove my eyes from her.

"Come on, Normani. Let's go." Beck, her photographer, said encouraging her.

"Ah..! Angelo." She covered her nipples with her hand.

She wore an opaque shirt and some panties that were matching the same colour. She stood up and wore a silk robe, walking towards me. I gave her a smile and she returned one. I pulled her into a side hug then we did our handshake.

"Wassup?" I asked.

"I'm good. Just doing that photo shoot." She shrugged.

"Sorry, I didn't know you was gonna wear something like that." I pointed at her.

"It's okay. My door wasn't locked, was it?" She raised her brow.

"Nah." I shook my head.

"Don't worry, I closed it behind me when I was coming in here.".

"Mhm.." She nodded her head then walked to the kitchen.

I walked behind her and sat by the island and watched her sing along to Freek'n'You as she made a ham and cheese sandwich. She looked at me and asked if I wanted one but I declined.

"I'm not gonna stay here for too long but I really need you to do something for me." I started off.

"What?".

"A'ight. Bria needs you to model for her line and she really wants you.".

"Uhhh...nah! That ain't doing you a favour but doing Bria a favour. I ain't doing it, sorry, Lo." She shook her head.

"Come on, you don't have to talk to her." I got off the stool and walked towards her.

"I'm sorry but I don't wanna be in the same room as her. She can find somebody." She raised her brow and patted her chest before walking to the fridge.

"Normani, she really regretted what she said to you.".

"So, how comes she didn't turn up here to apologise?".

"She's pregnant and she's some back pains?".

"If she's having back pains, why aren't you at home with her? Helping her? Supporting her?" She folded her arms.

"Forget I even asked." I shook my head.

"You seriously can't help a nigga out?" I asked but she shook her head so I turned around to walk off.

"If I participate in this shoot, will I be getting any dough?" I heard her voice.

"Yeah, she's paying the other models." I nodded my head.

"Text me the address and time. I'll be there." She gave me a wink before shooing me off.

"Thanks, Mani." I went over to give her a hug.
