When Luis did this, the rough, young dark-haired guy who was holding his chunky dick said, “Oh yeah, Leck, I’d like to jump on top of that right now. That’s the kind of ass guys love to fuck.”
Luis rolled his eyes.
The other guy punched the guy who was holding his dick and said, “We can take turns tapping him. I’ll go first.”
“Be good, boys,” Leck said, moving to the right so he could examine Luis’s ass from another angle. He reached down and gave Luis’s ass a firm squeeze again. This time his fingertips brushed against Luis’s anus harder.
Luis felt his face getting hot by then. He’d finally had enough. His entire body tightened and the only thing he wanted to do was get out of there and forget all about this experience. He didn’t feel like a good sport anymore; he felt stupid. He was sorry he’d come to Los Angeles and sorry he’d agreed to meet with Leck Schneider. If he’d known it would be like this, he never would have bothered. But Luis had never been into porn of any kind and he’d assumed all of Leck’s productions were artistic. There was nothing artistic about what they were doing that day and he couldn’t wait to get back to the hotel and talk to Elena about it. He knew her well, as a writer and a person, and he knew she couldn’t have known what was happening in these studios either. Evidently, the artistic photos this publisher created were a front for the real porn they were doing behind the scenes, and if Luis posed nude in artistic photos he’d only be funding their cause. But what really shocked Luis the most was when the one young guy spoke and his voice cracked. It was at that moment when it occurred to Luis most of these guys were underage.
So Luis sat up and said, “I really have to get dressed now, Leck. I have to get back to the hotel and get ready for our flight back to New York.”
“That’s fine,” Leck said. “I think you’ll be a perfect model for us. You never know. A simple nude photo shoot might turn into a film career.” He turned to the two young guys who were still gaping at Luis’s naked body. “Why don’t you boys help Luis get dressed now?” Leck sent Luis a dark smile. “You seem to have excited these poor boys beyond what I expected. Feel free to enjoy them if you want.”
Luis noticed both guys had full erections now. But when they took a step forward, Luis stood up and lifted his hands, palms facing them. “I’m fine, guys, seriously. I’ve been dressing myself for a long time. I can manage.”
Although he felt like a fool, Luis hadn’t done anything he’d seriously regret. He didn’t want the rest of the afternoon turning into a freak show, or worse, an illegal gang bang with minors. He looked the two young guys over and studied their faces. The one with dark hair still holding his dick couldn’t have been more than sixteen, and the quiet one with red hair, milky white skin, and smooth legs seemed about the same age, which caused a pull in Luis’s stomach that wouldn’t go away.
He felt like throwing a cover over them both. If there was one thing Luis could not abide, it was taking advantage of minors and exploiting them for sexual purposes.
Leck walked away, leaving the two young guys with Luis in case Luis changed his mind and wanted some help from them. But when Leck was gone, Luis pulled up his pants and asked, “How did you guys get involved in this line of work?” He was hoping they’d trust him because they’d think he was one of them. He wanted to be sure what he was thinking was the truth, because if they were underage, and he knew this for certain, he’d try to put a stop to it.
The one with red hair punched his buddy and said, “We met Leck on Santa Monica Boulevard and the rest is history.”
The guy with the chunky dick scratched his balls and said, “We make good money here. Better than we did turning tricks on the street.” He was no Einstein.
“But you’re both over eighteen, right?” Luis asked.
He knew he was taking a chance by asking this so openly. But they seemed to trust him.
Both guys laughed at the same time. The one with red hair said, “Seriously, dude. Do you have a life? We wouldn’t be here if we were over eighteen. We’re both sixteen. There’s always at least one chicken in a Leck Schneider film, but usually about two or three. Leck knows what he’s doing, and he knows what they want.”
The one with the chunky dick moved forward and reached around for Luis’s ass. “I hope we get to work together soon. The films with hot older guys like you get a lot of attention, especially when the older guy like you is the bottom.”
Luis took a step back and smiled. He was in his twenties and had never thought of himself as an “older” guy.
How old did this kid think he was? “It was nice meeting you guys. But I really have to get moving now. I’ll see you around.”
They both shrugged and started walking toward the other end of the studio. When they were gone, Luis dressed fast and walked back into the reception area where Leck was standing beside the reception desk. Luis grabbed Hunter by the arm, thanked the receptionist for watching him, then took the cherry ice pop out of Hunter’s hand and tossed it into a trash can. He turned and hurried to the elevator without looking back. He didn’t even shake Leck’s hand before he left.
He stepped into the elevator and said, “I’ll be in touch, Leck.
Thank you.” But he knew he’d never see Leck Schneider again, and he knew if he ever did pose for nude artistic photos it would not be with this publisher. All he wanted now was to get back to the hotel, pack his bags, and return to New York as quickly as possible. The first person he wanted to talk to was Jase. The second was Elena. She, above all people, had to be informed about this, because what he’d seen going on that afternoon in those studios was everything she’d worked hard to keep her blog from becoming.

Luis returned to New York on a commercial flight he paid for with his own money that same night. Leck had sent him return first-class tickets for the next day, but Luis wanted to get home fast and he didn’t want to accept another thing from Leck. After he told Jase what had happened during the meeting with Leck, they both agreed Luis would not pose nude for this publisher and Jase would call a few friends in Los Angeles and let them know Leck was creating porn with minors. Luis told Jase he couldn’t be completely sure they were all minors; just the two he’d met. But he had a pretty good suspicion half the guys in there weren’t legal enough to vote, let alone have sex in front of a camera. Then Luis phoned Elena in Paris and told her all about his disgusting experience with Leck Schneider and she was so shocked, she said she had to mix herself a strong drink and call him back.
