“Vivi, turn your webcam. I can’t see the full piece.” The staccato
accent of Niels Mikkelsen’s voice echoed in the sunroom Nikolai had
converted to a home studio for me. “The easel with your new work is
blocking my view.”
“Hang on.” I wiped the palette knife I had been using on the nearest
rag, cleaning away the ridge of cerulean blue oil paint clinging to the metal,
and dropped it on my worktable. I moved a few steps to the left and turned
the stack of art books supporting my laptop and webcam so Niels could see
the painting I had finished earlier that week. Sliding to the side, I asked,
“Can you see it now?”
“Yes!” Excitement filled his deep, masculine voice. “My goodness,
you’ve really grown since the last show.” Rustling sounds filtered across the
speakers as he moved aside the papers and files on his desk and leaned in
for a better look. “But you’re also returning to your roots, I see. Mixed
media?”
“Layers,” I said. “It’s about the layers.”
“Yes,” he hummed his agreement. “You’re maturing. I can see that
you have found something very interesting to say.”
The compliment from the Danish billionaire and world-renowned
collector of modern art brought a smile to my face. Although he had
enjoyed my show earlier in the year, Niels hadn’t wasted the chance to
deconstruct my paintings and encourage me with criticism that he delivered
with an academic air. “I’m glad you like it.”
“I do.” He slid back into his seat, the leather creaking and the springs
of the chair groaning. “I suppose I don’t have to look very far for your
muse.”
“And who would that be?” I glanced at the screen to see him watching
me rather intently. The handsome face filling my laptop screen could have
easily been printed on the glossy front of a men’s magazine or in a couture
editorial. He had the strangest eyes, the hazel color an enthralling mix of
whiskey brown with jade flecks, and sharp cheekbones. The intensity of his
gaze made me glance away. If he had been an alpha wolf, I would have
been a pack member who happily bared her neck in submission rather than
risk being torn to pieces.
“That Russian of yours, of course.” Leaning back in his chair, he
interlaced his fingers behind his head. “Where is Nikolai? Usually when we
have our chats, he’s hovering in the background.” He clicked his teeth.
“Such jealousy.”
