Halfway to Wardrobe, Laura's love interest in the movie stumbles out of his trailer with his assistant hot on his trail. Abel Clarke. He's one of the biggest stars in Hollywood. He's also one that can't seem to stay out of the papers. Everyone has an opinion on Clarke, and most aren't great. He's known for being difficult.

I'd be lying if I said I wasn't worried about the fact that he's starring alongside Laura in this movie. It has nothing to do with his dark good looks and everything to do with his reputation. The last thing she needs right now is a bad boy on his redemption tour fucking this up for her. And I'm not nearly dumb enough to believe he decided to do this movie of his own free will. I'm guessing he's one more scandal from serious trouble, and this is him paying his dues.

"They're going to make such a good couple," a woman sighs.

I whip my head in her direction. "Who?"

She turns wide eyes on me, blinking as if just noticing me. Her gaze darts to the scar across my cheek, her heavily made-up face paling slightly. I don't know who she is. She wasn't there when Laura introduced me earlier. And then I see the studio badge clipped to her shirt. Loraine Templeton. Production Assistant. She works for Heart & Soul.

"Oh, um, Abel and Laura," she says.

"They aren't together," I grit out through clenched teeth.

"Oh! Of course, of course," she stammers. "I mean their characters. People are going to go crazy when they see them on screen together, you know. He's so freaking hot. And she's gorgeous. Audiences will eat it up. Especially once they see that sex scene in the candy shop." She fans her face and laughs. "It's going to be the talk of the town!"

My brows pull together in a dark scowl. Fucking hell. She has a sex scene with him. I mean, I knew she had a sex scene with him. But I didn't think about the ramifications of her having a sex scene with him. He'll be touching her. People will see them together. People will see her.

"Are…are you growling?" Loraine asks.

"Where the fuck is a copy of this script?"

Loraine shuffles through the stack of papers in her arms and thrusts a copy of the script at me. I take it and spin on my heel, stomping back toward Laura's trailer. I fling myself inside, my heart pounding. I want to hunt Abel down and break his pretty face. But I can't do that. Laura will fucking kill me. And it's not like he's even done anything wrong anyway. I'm rational enough to realize that, even with possessive jealousy roiling through me in a dark cloud.

Instead, I read through the scene, said jealousy eating me alive. This is her job. I knew that when I fell in love with her. I'll swallow my own goddamn tongue before I ask her to quit, especially right now. But fuck my life. I did not consider the fact that I'd have to be here and see this scene unfold when I took this job.
