The Contract

Chapter 21

After a long day of filming, I make it back to my trailer completely exhausted, bloodied, and bruised.

The scene went perfectly, Amanda did really well during the sex scene where her dad bursts in the room and catches us in the act, then throws me out of the house.

During that scene, Dave Burrow, who plays Amanda's dad in the show apologized if he had hurt me during the throwout scene, making the whole crew laugh considering he was this 6'6 guy who looked completely terrifying.

After everyone had finished laughing and wrapping up, I was told by the director that 'Love You To Death' was currently number one on every international paid streaming service online.

When I shut my trailer door and opened my phone from the charger I found, my phone was completely blown up with text messages from Natalie and the agency stating that I was being seriously considered to star in movies, adverts, and more shows.

I had photoshoots lined up for magazines for the next three months, where I'll be positioned right next to supermodels for well know perfume brands like Dior, Hugo boss, and Givenchy.

My life had never been so busy, and at 22 years of living, I can finally say that I've made it, I've finally got to where some actors only dream of.

So why couldn't I enjoy any of it?

Donovan's words ring in my ear 'I made you famous' over and over, whenever I hear about a new opportunity or that I've been offered a part in a movie.

Going through my phone, I have countless messages from friends, and family I hadn't spoken to in years, not since my dad passed away, there were hundreds of them, way too much to go through every single one, not after shooting from early in the morning till 9 PM at night.

I scroll through and one thing I notice is, that I didn't get a single text or call from Donovan.

I don't care, I should just listen to Jill and move on, focus on my work so I can pay him back, and never see his fucking face again, maybe even change agencies, the thought had crossed my mind more than once during the weekend.

If I move agencies now, there would definitely be raised eyebrows about why, and that's when life gets messy and people start digging for gold, they might even find out about the contract.

I don't even know what my sexuality at this point is, and if word gets out that I had a sexual relationship with a famous and wealthy businessman billionaire like Donovan Steele, a well-known public figure in the industry and business world...

There's no saying what the headlines would say, or how much my life would turn upside down.

I groan out stressed to hell and rub my face roughly, just as there was a knock on my trailer door.

Sitting up and putting my phone down, I shout 'come in'.

My co-star, Mich Brenner comes inside my trailer holding two cups of coffee.

"Oh." I literally drool. "You're officially my favorite person." I tell him.

Mich laughs and hands me a coffee, and sits down next to me. "Figured you needed this after a day like today, I know I do." He said grinning tiredly.

"You had no idea." I take a sip and then sigh out a moan. "I'm so tired I can barely see straight."

"You even put cream and honey in it." I laugh as he shrugs.

"I've watched you make your drink every day for the past week, only you use honey in your coffee on set." He grimaces.

"You're practically a freak of nature Evan."
