Chapter 51
When I left the room I was all smiles and my heart was on cloud 9. Never before in my life had I
expected that this would be
1.
2. Adide Steyn, was going to be the director of the book adaptation of the Mavelyn series. This was
huge.
There had been talks of the books bing a movie but nopany had picked them up. Emma was
very picky about who she wanted to trust with her babies. And now Brandon, Matt, and Steve were
entrusting me to bring it all to life.
There was a script and I would need to look through it as soon as it got faxed to me.
1 got into the car Damon had gotten for me. I took my phone out, unable to wait much longer.
I opened the phone up to the group chat I shared with Lucas and Jenna. It was ironically called the
‘Spill the Tea” even though Lucas loathed tea with a burning passion.
Me: Guess what?
Lucas: You’re about to make us some nice millions?? Don’t forget us, little people.
Jenna: Lol, shut up Lucas.
Lucas: What? You were thinking it too. “rolling eyes emoji*
Jenna: Technically, she is a millionaire because of our Daddy Damon.
Me: Ew, that name is not going to stick, Jenna. Can we use any other one besides that?
Jenna: I like it haha
Lucas: Me too, I mean have you seen your husband? He is a tall drink of temptation and lust!
Me: Now that you two are done thirsting after my husband, can I ask you something?
Jenna: Yes?
Lucas: All ears.
Me: How would you guys feel about moving to LA for a little while?
Jenna: ???
Me: I may have epted a deal to direct the movie on the condition that they can get you guys a spot
on the production team. I couldn’t fly to LA without my dream team now, could I?
Jenna: What?!
Lucas: OMG!!!! This is so huge I think I may have just peed myself a little. Tell me this is real. Tell me
this isn’t just some very sick and twisted vivid dream!
I let out a littleugh as I read their messages.
N?velDrama.Org owns this.
Me: This is very real, Lucas. You’reing to LA baby!
We continued to chat in the group until I got to my hotel where Iter said my goodbyes and went
upstairs to see Damon.
In the excitement I had forgotten that this move would not only impact me but also him. We were a
team-a unit. He said that he would follow me wherever I went and I trusted that but I also knew that his
whole life had revolved around Nevada. Both of ours had but I wasn’t as attached to it as he was.
When I walked through the door I found him on one of the couches in the living area with hisptop on
hisp and a mug of coffee in his hand.
One look at my face and he was smiling. “You got it?”
“Yeah. I got it, Damon.” I smiled back at him, making my way over to him and making myself
comfortable beside him.
“Something’s wrong. I know that face you’re making.” He moved hisptop to the coffee table and
turned his body in my direction. “Talk to me.”
The smile slowly slipped from my lips. “I want the job but it’s going to require me to be out here for a
year if not more.” “And? I’m failing to see the problem here.”
“And… I can’t just move you halfway across the country. LA is not Nevada.”
“Of course, it’s not. Here you have the opportunities that you would never have in Nevada.”
“I know,” I intertwined our fingers together. “But what about you?”
“What about me?”
“I can’t just move your life here” I dared to look into his eyes. Those big dark eyes had me in an iron
grip. Even when I had loathed him. I always thought there was something magnificent about the depth
in his eyes. They told stories when he allowed them to be seen. “I want you to be happy too”
He squeezed my hand gently pulling me toward him. “Do you want to know what makes me happy?”
I waited for him to continue
He pulled me into hisp so I was straddling and both hisrge hands rested on my hips. His thumbs
brushed the exposed skin of my crop top causing a small wave of sparks all throughout my body
“What makes you happy, husband
My finger threaded their way into his silky hair I loved how we moved with each other. The way our
bodies spoke to each other. It was harmonious and so in sync
“Seeing you, my wife, happy” He leaned forward kissing my lips softly. “I don’t mind being here for a
year and work can travel with me. When I need to be on the ground in Nevada then I’ll just fly there and
thene running back to you.”
“Are you sure Heat traveled from the middle of my chest right down to my core
“When ites to you, I’m always sure” Another soft kiss on my lips. “Besides, I had a feeling we
would be making the move here so I made some calls while you were in your meeting”
“What?”
He looked over my shoulder. I followed his gaze to hisputer and found him on a real estate
website. I arched my back toward the screen.
I gasped. “You were looking for a house for us?”
I turned back to my husband who had the most adorable smile on his face. His eyes moved over my
face, drinking in my expression.
“This is your dream. Adide.” He held me tighter. “I will support you no matter how far we need to go
or how long. I just know that as long as I have you by my side then I’ll be okay. So take the deal and
make your dreamse true.”
“Really?” My excitement could not be contained. “LA is our new home for the next year and a half?”
“Yes, my love.” He smiled. “Home for me is wherever you are. If you want or go to Antarctica I’m with
you. Till the wheels. fall off. Adide,”
I grabbed my husband’s face and kissed him with all that I had in me. This man was incredible and I
could not ask for a better partner for me.
I was only intending for it to be a short sweet kiss shared between us but my husband had other ns.
He pulled me in tightly and deepened the kiss, angling his head. I moaned into his mouth allowing his
tongue ess
His hands dipped below the hem of my top and they made their way up my back where he unclipped
my bra.
When we pulled apart we were both breathless but I could see the hunger in his eyes and I was sure
that I was mirroring his expression.
“Why don’t we celebrate this aplishment of yours. Mrs. Steyn?”
Heat pulled down into my core again. I could feel the slow pulsating sensation begin. Beneath me, I
could feel his hardening length.
“You read my mind, Mr. Steyn.”
He imed my mouth with his in a heated kiss.
We spent the rest of the day cooped up in the room celebrating my sess. We moved through the
entire room practically christening every surface. And when we were done we fell asleep and only woke
again to eat.
It was a good celebration.
“When will you get the script?” Damon yed with my hair as weid in the silence.
Iid on my husband’s chestpletely naked beneath the sheets. With my stomach full and my
hunger for him quelled I could feel the tiredness closing in again.
I stared out at the LA skyline. I could see all the lights from the various buildings and streets from here.
Damon had booked out the penthouse suite so we were pretty high up.
“They said likely in the next week and casting will follow after that. We can use the downtime to look for
houses.”
“Anything in mind?” He kissed my temple drawing me in closer.
“Somewhere with a yard and pool would be great but no overspending
He chuckled at my warning. “This is LA, Adide. Everything here is overpriced, our home will be no
different.”
“I forget this must all feel like chump change to you. You’re a billionaire after all. With a capital B.”
Heughed again, his chest rumbling under me. “With a capital B.”
My eyes began to close slowly as the tiredness took a tighter hold on me.
“Hey, husband?” I yawned.
“Yes, wife?”
“I love you.” My eyes fluttered closed.
Thest thing I remember was the faintest touch on my cheek before I heard his soft voice fill my ears.
“I love
you too.”
I slipped into a dreamless sleep, waking in the middle of the night with a start. My heart kept thumping,
and for no reason
whatsoever, a thought popped into my mind.
What if Damon wasn’t really happy? What if this move came between us?
Maybe this was a big mistake.
