A model for Hunks & Beauty Fashions, Lucien possesses all the quintessential assets: he's tall, dark, and sexy.  Of course, when he's not setting hearts on fire in front of the camera, he is a very earthly guy.  His lifelong friendship with Vanessa Manthroll has a lot to do with the man he is today.

Being an only child, he more or less looked after Vanessa as if she were a younger sister, someone he could protect and build a support system around.  In fact, after all these years, they still have a pretty solid bond, dedicating their lives to the same passion -- modeling.  However, something has changed below the surface.  Vanessa is no longer a helpless little girl, she's a woman with womanly desires.  The target of her desire -- Lucien.  Unfortunately for Vanessa, Lucien has become fascinated with his new modeling partner, Danielle Marquez.  In fact, the chemistry that the two have developed on camera has sent Vanessa on a jealous rampage more than once.  Vanessa worst fears were soon confirmed when she caught Lucien and Danielle in a liplock.  However, the two agreed that it was a mistake that they didn't intend to repeat.

As the Spring/Summer Modeling Fashion Show slowly approaches, Lucien finds that he and Danielle are becoming more and more insync with one another.  Well, that was until Danielle sort of took charge during one of the photoshoots and became almost seductive with him.  While the photographers loved it, Lucien found it to be uncharacteristic of Danielle's modeling style.  In fact, it left him so unsettled that he went to Danielle's sister, Michelle, about the performance.  While Michelle admitted that Danielle's performance was a little surprising, she didn't find it out of the ordinary.  She chalked it up to Danielle becoming comfortable enough with her modeling subject to try new things.  She then suggested that he might be bothered by the whole thing because Danielle took a more dominant role in the shoot, which he found downright laughable because he's not that type of guy.  However, feeling himself slowly slipping into a hole, he resolved to cut the conversation shut and asked Michelle not to mention anything to Danielle about his concerns.
