“Fuck!” The stretch was too much and not enough. I needed him deeper. I needed his cock. But before I could ask for it, he pinched my clit, and the world exploded.

He whispered praise in my ear, but I could barely hear it. I was in the center of the blast, and all my senses ceased functioning. Riding his hands like a saddle, I came until I couldn’t anymore and slumped into him. He held me there, the only thing keeping me upright as everything slowly came back to me.

“That’s my good Girl Scout. I think that was worth a gold award, don’t you?”

With the return of my senses came the return of my sense in general, and I dropped to a crouch to retrieve my purse. Half my stuff had spilled out, revealing the lost key card, and I snatched it, rising to fluidly swipe it before pushing the door open.

One step in, I twisted around to face him. “You’re filming scenes fourteen through twenty tomorrow. Make sure you’re ready with your lines. I’ll quiz you over breakfast.”

Then I hurried to my room because if I didn’t put space between us, getting finger fucked in the hallway wasn’t the only reckless thing I would do.

And I most certainly couldn’t afford to fall in love with Abel Clarke.

ABEL

Asnowball hit me in the face, and Luca ended the shoot. “We don’t have a problem, do we, Abel?”

I blinked, tearing my eyes away from Scout, who had been busy scrawling notes in my script for me. At the sound of my name, she looked up quickly. A blush stained her cheeks as she attempted to scowl disapprovingly at me.

If it would get her to talk to me again, I’d be disappointing all she wanted … except in bed. Which I was still determined to get her into. She could lock her room all she wanted, but she had to get there first.

“No, sorry. But this is why I became an actor instead of a baseball player when the Angels called.” This earned me a couple of chuckles from the crew before the director nodded.

“Sure, let’s take five and let Abel rest his major league arm. Reset the scene, please.” I tried to smile gratefully, then thanked my co-star, Laura, before politely excusing myself, and like a meteor hurling to its death in Earth’s atmosphere, I made my way over to Scout.

“It’s day two, Abel. Seriously?”

“What? I’m playing nice, and I was early this morning for hair and makeup!” I pulled the beanie off my head, shaking outmy curly black hair. Her eyes followed as I swept my fingers through it, pushing it off my face.

“They had to stop filming for you.”

“I was distracted by you.”

This took the wind out of her sails as she stared at me, that blush blossoming again. She opened her mouth, then closed it again like she was auditioning to be my pet fish. I lifted an eyebrow, waiting for her to find whatever words she was looking for.

“Don’t be,” she finally managed.

“Kinda hard not to be when you’re gorgeous.”

Her eyes flicked to Laura and back to me. “Really? You’re working with Laura Groves.”

I glanced over at my beautiful co-star before looking back at her. “Sure, but she’s not my type.”

She arched an eyebrow. “We’re both blondes. We both have green eyes. She’s …”

She paused, and I took the opportunity to clarify. “You. You’re my type, Scout.”

She inhaled sharply and dropped her voice. “No.”

“I know that … experience … wasn’t awful, so why are you still resisting this?” I frowned as she looked away, watching everyone else but me. All my life, people stared at me, but I’d never longed for them to do it the way I wanted her to.

“A lot is riding on you and me working out professionally, Abel.” She finally looked back at me. “Someone my age doesn’t make it in this industry overnight as you did. It can take years to get somewhere. But succeeding with you, proving myself to the agency, will show them I’m ready for the big time. There’s a portfolio of stars with my name on it back at the office if I don’t fuck up with you. So, fucking you is off the table.”

“It wasn’t last night.”

“Last night was a lapse of judgment on my part, and I’m sorry for leading you on.” She held out the script, nudging my stomach with it. “Practice your lines before they start rolling again.”
