CHAPTER FIFTY-TWO

Juno

I quickly shoved all my clothes back into my suitcase, thanking one of Jack’s men when he brought my overnight bag in from Alma and Kai’s. It was a little weird having someone keep track of all my luggage for me, but I was grateful to have one of them there. Before he could leave, I asked him what type of luggage arrangement we’d have.

I’d arrived with just one suitcase and a small carry-on bag, aware there were limits on commercial flights, but if I was going to buy extra clothes that suited the climate on an island in the Bahamas, they weren’t going to fit in my case. I’d only just realized that.

I had the overnight bag, but they weren’t all going to fit in it.

“Oh, it’s all right, ma’am. We’ll be going to the island by private jet and then a yacht. We can provide a spare suitcase if that would help, and it can all be loaded as usual.”

I blinked, not entirely surprised, but beginning to feel like this was something no one else would have worried about.

“An extra suitcase would be great. If it’s not needed for anyone else,” I replied as I tried to recover.

Thankfully, this ended the awkward moment as the burly bodyguard hurried away to either let someone else know I needed a suitcase or get it for me. I exhaled and sat for a moment.

This whole world Jack and his band lived in was so unlike anything I was used to. It felt like there was always someone there to fetch whatever was needed or make sure every desire was granted. And everyone else clearly felt this was normal.

While Jack was always polite to his staff, and it was clear they got along well with him, it felt so alien. A part of me liked how much easier it made life, but I already knew it came with a price. The paparazzi, the legions of fans who weren’t always great with boundaries, and having to be careful where you were going were pretty hefty downsides sometimes.

Experiencing the celebrity world firsthand made it clear there was a lot more to being famous than people realized. I could finally see it wasn’t everything it was cracked up to be.

I wasn’t sure it was what I wanted, not that I’d ever pursued it hard, but it was easier as a writer to be less of a celebrity and still have everyone know your name. In many ways, I was extremely grateful for my career choice.

By the time I’d finished packing again, I was already wondering what it would be like after the TV series was complete. Would more people know me then? I had no idea, but I wasn’t going to push for it, either. My name could be far more famous than my face.

Once I finished, and I was sure I wasn’t leaving anything in the apartment, I made my way back to Jack’s and knocked on his door. For a moment, I wasn’t sure if I should go in, but I soon heard Jack.
