Story: Notorious
“But isn’t he still filming the action movie?” I asked.
Spencer shook his head. “They finished last week. But he hired on Lewis to be his live-in chef, even though he would stay without getting paid. But that’s a problem for another time. I’m excited for you, Con. I think this will be a great opportunity. And if you need any help, just let us know.”
Connor stood and wrapped Spencer in a hug before moving to Lee. He then linked his fingers with mine and pulled me closer.
“I appreciate your support. I’ll figure out a way to convince Kaid to star in the movie, and give him a say on who he’d like to be his co-star, but I’ll leave it a few days. In the meantime, Ollie and I are off to have dinner. Thanks again.”
Excitement thrummed through me as we left the building, Connor leading me to his SUV. Before he started the car, he asked, “Where would you like to go for dinner?”
I shook my head. “We should head home and tell your family. You know mama would want to hear about your first directorial debut from you.”
Not proud of myself, but a squeak escaped me when Connor grabbed my waist and maneuvered me to straddle his lap. He cupped my face and when his tongue teased my bottom lip; I opened for him, once again overwhelmed by his kiss. My arms draped over his shoulders and I whimpered as he tilted his head and deepened the kiss. Unable to help myself, I ground my hard dick against his stomach, moaning into Connor’s mouth as my brain became fuzzy with need.
Breathless and gasping for air as we pulled apart, I couldn’t help my cheeks heating at the desperation on his face.
“What?”
“You,cariño mío, are good for my heart.”
It took every ounce of control not to blurt out how much he meant to me. Falling for Connor would be as easy as taking a breath. Hell, in the recesses of my deepest thoughts, I could admit to losing my heart to this man at his first encouraging smile when we met. But being able to keep the man was a novel concept, and I wasn’t sure I’d be lucky enough.
“I’m proud of you for voicing your desire to direct. And you know your mom will be thrilled. Especially if we decide to film here. But that’s your decision and I’m on board for anything you decide.”
I returned to my seat and tilted my lips up when he reached for my hand, laying it on his lap, before he started the SUV and drove us toward home. With my thoughts on what I read about the position, making the movie come alive and keeping theschedule on track seemed like a new challenge, one I would take on with gusto. And bringing a story to life is another positive.
As Connor parked, I blinked, pulling myself out of my thoughts, to see I took notes on my phone.
“Ready?”
A smile lit me up from the inside, and I nodded. “Oh, have the paparazzi left?”
“There wasn’t anyone outside. Despite my lurid past, I’ve never created a suspicion for them to stay very long. And if we confirm nothing to the press, then there is no story.”
Connor hopped out, and I followed. When we entered the kitchen, it was to loud voices and laughter, and I noticed even Sam and Thomas were in the kitchen.
“Hey, mama.”
She gave us a smile when she noted our linked hands, but unlike every other time, she clapped her hands and asked, “What are you two so excited about?”
“I’m going to direct my first film,” Connor said.
I waited with a small smirk and laughed aloud when the room erupted in cheers. The triplets threw themselves at Connor, who held him close as they cuddled him. Next, his mama gripped him tight and kissed him on the cheek, her face beautiful with the proud smile. Both of his sisters kissed him on the cheek, and even Sam pulled Connor into a hug.
“And… Ollie is going to be my script supervisor on his first Hollywood production.”
“Holy shit,” Landon exclaimed, then flinched when his mama slapped the back of his head.
Linus lunged forward, and I hugged him. “This is so cool. We didn’t know you wanted?—”
“Spencer called me in for help with a script, and when I read it through, I enjoyed it. So did Connor. And when he volunteered to direct, he also volunteered me to be a script supervisor.” Ileaned closer and whispered, “No clue what the position is like, but I want to find out. If I can help Connor with his directorial debut, all the better.”
“We’ll visit you on set, and you can put us to work,” Lyric said.
Connor huffed, “You’ve never offered to help me during a production.”
“You’re protective of us, Con. But we’re almost eighteen, and we know how to take care of ourselves. We can use this experience as something to put on our college applications, and it’ll get us out of study hall and credit us with work study since we’ve taken all the required classes needed to graduate. Besides, Ollie’s our favorite person and if he’s going to be away from home most of the time, we’re coming with,” Landon said.
“Fine,” Connor huffed, but the happiness shone from the brilliant smile on his face, knowing his brothers would be close.
