"Girlfriend!"

Olivia turned to see who was screaming just in time to see a man running straight towards her with a huge smile on his face. Before she could even react, he had picked her up and was swinging her around in a circle.

"Whoa!" She gasped as she tried to steady the dizziness threatening to overtake her.

"Put her down," A deep voice warned and her feet soon felt the ground. Warm hands surrounded her waist and she was soon covered in the scent of the ocean, calming her fraying nerves.

"Sorry, Man, meant no harm, swear," the random man said nervously.

"I'm okay, Yevgeny," she said as she took a very small step away from Silas to look at the angry Russian. "It just startled me, that's all. I know Tommy from a previous movie. He's okay," she smiled gently before turning to face the said actor. "How's your husband Mike?"

"Busy," Tommy beamed proudly. "He's our fashion designer for this movie, I'm so proud of him!"

"Awe, that's wonderful," She smiled as she rested her head on Silas' chest. "Now I'll have someone that will actually listen when I need something changed."

"Abso-fucking-lutely," Tommy smiled. "He's so excited to dress you up."

"Well, as long as he doesn't have a problem working with my fashion designer," she reached her hand out and Gabe proudly took it, stepping up next to her, "then I'm excited to see what he has in store for me for this movie. I absolutely loved the dress he made me for the ball last year. How's his boutique, by the way?"

"Thriving Darling, thriving. Look at you!" A man beamed as he sauntered over to them. "Absolutely glowing, I love it!"

"Gabe, Silas, Yevgeny, meet Mike Moreau, Tommy's husband and I guess my other fashion designer for the movie. Mike, Tommy, Gabe Coleman is –"

"Holy shit, I love your work!" Mike interrupted as he slapped Tommy's chest, "Tommy, it's Gabriel Coleman! Look!"

"I see, Love," Tommy chuckled as Gabe's smile grew. "Sorry, he's a huge fan."

"Don't be," Gabe chuckled as he held his hand out, "Pleased to fucking work with you in dressing up our girl." Olivia blushed as Gabe kissed her cheek. "Silas and Raven are her bodyguards and the rest of the family is fucking around here too."

"Let me show you what we have in store for her right now, if that's okay with you?" Mike asked as he looked at Olivia.

"Of course," she nodded, "Thank you for being okay with him working with you."

"Trust me, Darling, it's a fucking honor," Mike beamed.

"Just a bit of advice," Silas chuckled, "find another nickname for her. Blackbourne has already claimed that one for our girl."

"Got it," Mike nodded.

"See you soon," Gabe chuckled as he kissed her temple then followed the excited man to another part of the building.

"Well, Girlfriend, ready to go over some lines?" Tommy asked, chuckling. "That just made his freaking year by the way."

"You say that now but Gabe is very picky and demanding," Silas shook his head, "his opinion may change by the end of filming."

"I highly doubt that," Tommy smirked. "He loves criticism when it comes from someone he idolizes, he thrives on improving his work and earning praise from those he looks up to. He sees this as an opportunity to be better than he already is."

"There you are," a man said as he strolled over to them.

"Niko," Tommy smiled politely. "Morning."

"Morning," the man barely nodded. "Miss."

"Mr. Bozic," she nodded at him.

"You ride horses?" He point blank asked her. "You are riding a horse in the first scene of filming."

"I can teach her," Luke said as he walked up to them. "I ride."

"And you are?" Niko asked suspiciously.

"One of her personal trainers, Lucien Taylor," Luke glared at him. "Nathan Griffin here is her other one, as are Yevgeny Ravenstahl and Egor Volkov."

"Nathan Griffin?" Niko's eyes widened.

"Someone call me?" Nathan asked as he walked over to them. "Hey Peanut," he smiled as he kissed her cheek. "You need me?"

"I was just telling Niko here," Luke narrowed his eyes at the man, "that you are one of Cupcake's personal trainers. He was asking who we were."

"Oh," Nathan straightened as he turned to face the man before them. "Nathan Griffin, you are?"

"Niko Bozic, stuntman and personal trainer," he said as he held his hand out.

"There you are," the director beamed as he hurried over to the group, "Olivia, I'm so happy you were able to join us." He held his hand out. She took it and shook it politely, "I was just speaking with Mr. Blackbourne and Mr. Lee making sure everything is suited for you."

"Thank you," she smiled, "It already looks amazing."

"Great, well, shooting starts at 5am. Let's show you the layout for now and then I know Dr. Green said you are still on a strict schedule for your recovering health so you will need to be heading to your place soon so you don't have to deal with jetlag."

"Thank you," she nodded as she started to follow him. "Gabriel is already meeting with Mike on wardrobe, he is excited about that."

"Great," the director smiled. "I know Mr. Weiland is talking with the food people as well. Niko can teach you how to ride a horse for tomorrow if you need to be taught."

"Luke said he will refresh my memory," Olivia shook her head. "It's been a few years since I've ridden."

"Sounds good to me," the director nodded, "if you want I can have the people send the horse to your place so you can practice whenever you want."

"Thank you, that will be perfect," Owen said as he met up with them.

"Owen," she smiled as she stepped closer to him.

"Alright Boss Lady," Ava said as she joined them, "Gabe, Vlad, and Lev have the address of our place and Vlad and Lev have already headed over to start taking care of it. Gabe said he would meet up there once he was done talking to some Mike guy. Marc is talking to the food people, Victor, Kota, and a few of the others went to help Vlad and Lev. Brandon and North were looking over some cars in the stunt area. I got your lines for tomorrow and I also have it downloaded to your personal tablet so any edits that are done after hours will be automatically synced up so you have the latest edits as soon as they happen. All NDAs have been signed and Blackbourne and Kota triple checked. Also Max and Veles vests have arrived so they can remain on set at all times you are here."

"Great, thank you Ava," Olivia smiled at her. "Will you please call ahead and let the guys know a horse will be arriving sometime later today? They are letting me get in some extra practice with Luke's help."

Ava grinned, "You got it, Boss."

"Alright," Owen said as he nodded, "you've had a long day. Let's see this tour and then get you to the house, you need your rest, per doctor's orders."

She nodded, "Okay, Owen."
