Mr. Hollywood (Celebrity #1) (23 page)

“
I
will after we eat. Right now I need to clean up and help your mom.
”

“
Okay.
”
Dustin hurried back into the living
room and Zane turned to face me.

“
So,
do I need to use the guest bath, or do I get a tour of your bathroom?
”

“
Is
that your way of asking to see the master suite?
”
I
grinned.

“
It
is.
”

“
Come
on, then.
”
Taking his hand, I led him
down the hallway and opened the single door to my room. While it wasn
’
t the biggest bedroom ever, it was
still nice, with vaulted ceilings and large glass sliding doors that led out
onto a small patio that ran across the back of the house. I loved working in my
flower boxes out there. It was a favorite hobby of mine.

The master bath had a decent sized Jacuzzi tub, which
was a favorite way for me to relax, along with a separate shower and double
vanities. It wasn
’
t fancy like he was used to, I was
sure, but it was still homey and comfortable just the same.

“
I
love the way you
’
ve decorated everything,
”
Zane said, releasing my hand and
walking around.
“
The furniture and colors compliment
the house well.
”

“
Yeah,
I like the old world theme. It goes well with the Spanish architecture.
”

“
I
think if you ever quit being a nurse, you could be a designer. I don
’
t know what it is about this place,
but it just gives off this incredible vibe of comfort and relaxation.
”

I was thrilled that he liked my house. Especially
since I knew he was one of those people who could afford anything he wanted.
Coming from him, it was a true compliment.
“
Thank
you. I
’
m glad you like it.
”

“
Want
to see one of my favorite things about this house?
”
he asked.

“
Sure,
”
I replied, wondering what he meant.
Taking my hand, he slowly pulled me inside, and locked the door behind us.

“
You
’
re one of my favorite things. The
other one is in the living room.
”
Bending, his lips captured
mine and excitement raced through me. Wrapping my arms around his neck, I
kissed him back, sliding my tongue into his mouth and he moaned.

“
Better
be careful,
”
he whispered, breaking away
to kiss my neck.
“
If you keep being aggressive like
this, you
’
re gonna end up with something else
inside you.
”

I snickered.
“
You mean that wasn
’
t your end game anyway?
”

His laughter joined mine in between kisses, and he
slid his hands down to my pants, releasing the tie on his sweats I was still
wearing.

“
We
don
’
t have enough time,
”
I rasped out, grasping his hands and
stilling them.

“
Wanna
bet?
”
He pushed the sweatpants and
panties down, and lifted me, setting my bare butt on the counter in between the
sinks, before pulling the items completely off my legs.

Reaching for his pants, he quickly shoved them down
just enough to free his cock, and then grabbing my hips, pulled me to the very
edge of the counter and shoved himself inside.

“
Fuck,
Aubrey. I
’
ve wanted to do this to you all
day.
”

“
All
day? It
’
s barely noon. You already had me
all night.
”
Still, his words intoxicated
me.

“
It
wasn
’
t enough.
”
Desire burned in his features, and
I could see his quick pulse, pounding away in his neck. Yearning filled me, and
he answered it immediately, giving me exactly what I was craving
—
repeatedly. I tossed my head
backward and rocked my hips closer, wanting more.

“
How
much is enough?
”
I was still so sensitive from
last night, but it made what he was doing to me now feel so good.

“
I
don
’
t know, but I
’
ll let you know if I get there.
”
He thrust more forcefully and I
whimpered at the incredible sensations he was causing inside me.

“
Okay,
”
I huffed out, feeling my release
building quickly.
“
What happened to anticipation and
foreplay?
”
I asked with a laugh.

“
Nothing.
”
He grinned.
“
This is just foreplay for later.
”

“
This
is foreplay to you?
”
Shit, I was gonna come. I bit
my lip, trying not to scream with the sweet torment.

“
Fuck,
yeah. Just a little reminder to your sweet pussy about what is coming when I
get you alone tonight.
”

With his words, I broke, falling over the edge as a
loud gasp escaped my lips. Instantly, his mouth was over mine, muffling the
sound as he kissed me.  Wave after wave of pleasure rolled through me as I
clung to him and his thrusting grew even stronger.

“
Fuck!
”
he whispered loudly groaning as he
pumped into me.
“
Fuck! Here I come! Ahhhhh!
”
The low moan continued as he ground
his body against mine, his semen flooding my insides and coating me. It was so
incredibly good, and I felt transfixed as I clung to him, my body singing. I
’
d just been with Zane
—
in my house. He was really here. I
simply wanted to cling to him and relish this moment forever.

“
That
was amazing!
”
I said softly, slumping back
against the mirror, my body feeling like gelatin.

“
Yes,
it was. Thank you.
”
Leaning forward, he put his
hands on either side of me and placed a light kiss against my lips as he
continued to slide his wet dick in and out of me sending aftershocks to tremble
through me.
“
I look forward to christening all
the rooms in both our houses this way.
”

“
Sounds
like fun,
”
I replied, as images of him
being intimate with me in all those rooms filled my head. It was the most
erotic thing I
’
d ever imagined.

“
Oh,
I
’
m sure it will be.
”
He kissed me again, still moving
his body against mine. Glancing down, I could see his cock glistening with our
mixed body fluids and it turned me on so much I wanted to go again. Looking
back up into his eyes, I found him staring at me.
“
Like what you see?
”
he asked.

I nodded, not even embarrassed to admit it.
“
Yes. A lot.
”

“
Me,
too. Get used to seeing it, baby. I plan on living between your legs as much as
possible.
”
His words caused renewed heat
to flood through me, and I grabbed his shirt and pulled him back to my mouth,
kissing him deeply.

There was a knock outside on my bedroom door and it
caused us both to stiffen.

“
Yes?
”
I called out guiltily.

“
I
’
m hungry! What are you doing?
”

I couldn
’
t help laughing.
“
Go play your game. We
’
ll be right there.
”

“
Hurry!
”

Zane and I both laughed together quietly, and I loved
the way his eyes still sparkled when he looked at me. It reminded me of the way
he used to stare at me.

“
Guess
that
’
s my cue to pull out, huh?
”
he asked, and he actually seemed
disappointed.

“
Guess
so.
”

He didn
’
t pull out; he kept moving,
instead.

“
Are
you gonna stop?
”
I smiled as I watched him.

“
Eventually,
”
he replied, bending to kiss my
lips.
“
You just feel so damn good I can
’
t quite bring myself to do it yet.
”

Staring at the place where are bodies were joined
together, I watched for a few moments, mesmerized.
“
You
’
re
getting harder again.
”
Pointing out the obvious was
a strong suit of mine.

“
What
can I say? You do it for me. I
’
ve practically been in a state of
permanent erection since I found you again. I have years worth of missed sex
with you to make up for.
”

“
Are
you planning on doing it all in two days?
”
I asked, teasingly.

“
No.
”
He grinned, still riding me.
“
I
’
m
pretty sure I
’
ll never catch up, but I
’
m sure as hell going to have fun
trying.
”

“
Well,
I
’
m pretty sure I
’
ll have fun watching you try. If
you don
’
t kill me with sex first.
”

He laughed.
“
I think death by sex would be a
great way to go, don
’
t you?
”

I shook my head.
“
No. I prefer to keep living and
having it.
”

“
Hey,
I
’
m good with that, too. Your way is
much better.
”

Capturing my mouth with his, he continued his
delicious torture of my body until we both shattered again. I was pretty sure I
was going to be throbbing from his pounding all through dinner, but that was
perfectly fine with me. In all truthfulness, as we cleaned up and redressed,
all I could think about was how he would pleasure me again when we went to bed.

I was so looking forward to it!

Chapter Eighteen

Z

“
Okay,
you two! It
’
s bedtime. No more video games!
”

“
But
Mom!
”
Dustin wailed.
“
It
’
s
the weekend. Can
’
t we play just a little longer?
”

“
It
’
s already after ten o
’
clock. I don
’
t want your sleep schedule messed
up for school, otherwise you get all grouchy in the morning.
”
Hands on her hips, Aubrey
’
s eyes flickered between the two of
us.

“
Mind
your, Mom, kiddo,
”
I added, patting him on the
back.
“
And maybe tomorrow we can all go do
something fun together as a family.
”

“
Really?
Like what?
”
The kid was all excitement. I
liked it.

Chuckling, I shook my head.
“
I have no idea. You go to bed and
your mom and I will discuss it and see if we can
’
t
come up with a plan.
”

“
Okay!
”
Dropping his controller, he bounded
over to give his mom a hug.
“
Love you, Mom. Goodnight.
”

“
Don
’
t forget to give your dad a hug,
too.
”

“
Aw,
he doesn
’
t have to. Whenever he
’
s read
—”
I stopped speaking when Dustin
threw his arms around me, totally caught up in the sensation. My son
—
my son
—
was giving me a hug. Tears filled
my eyes as I wrapped my arms around him and squeezed back.
“
Thank you,
”
I added, my voice choked with
emotion. I was sure it wasn
’
t the right thing to say to a nine
year old kid, especially since he had no idea how much this meant to me, but I
was robbed of words. There was nothing else I could do but feel the bit of
heaven in my arms.

He released me quickly and bounded down the hall
toward his room.

“
Don
’
t forget to go to the bathroom and
wash up before bed,
”
Aubrey called after him.

“
I
know!
”
he replied.

My eyes drifted from the hall and back to Aubrey.
“
Was it like this for you? Did you
love him instantly?
”

Smiling, she came and sat beside me on the couch, and
I put the game controller on the coffee table.
“
Yes,
I loved him instantly. In fact, I loved him before he was born. He was all I
had at the time. I
’
d come home exhausted after work
and fall into bed. Sometimes I would cry, other times I just stared at the
ceiling, feeling too tired to blink, but I never felt alone. Whenever I was
sad, Dustin would move around inside my belly, and it was like he was saying,
“
I
’
m
here for you, Mom.
”
It made me feel so much
better. I would lie there and rub my hands over my belly and talk to him,
telling him about my day. I
’
m sure it all sounds crazy to you,
but it helped me.
”

“
It
doesn
’
t sound crazy at all,
”
I replied, truthfully.
“
I think it
’
s beautiful that you bonded with
him like that. I just wish I would
’
ve been there with you.
”
Guilt ate at me heavily. I hated
that she suffered through all this because of my indiscretions. I
’
d never forgive myself for my past
treatment of her
—
of me
—
of
us. I
’
d screwed up everything royally,
and had missed ten years with the only person I
’
d
every really loved.

“
I
wish you could have, too.
”
There was pain and regret in
her eyes now. I didn
’
t like seeing those there.
“
Would you like to hear about his
birth?
”

“
Honestly,
I want to hear about it all. I want to know everything you
’
ve done since then.
”
I wanted to know her past and what
life had been like for her, even if it was painful.

“
I
’
d like to hear the same about
yours. I know I
’
ve surprised you with a lot
recently, but we have so many things we need to discuss together. What about
the future? How are we going to do this? I don
’
t
want Dustin suffering because of our mistakes. I want this transition to be as
easy as possible on him.
”

“
I
agree.
”

“
Also,
since you
’
re in rehab, I think we need to let
him know. He needs to understand that there are things you need to stay away
from and be mindful over. I don
’
t want him inadvertently placing
you in an awkward situation where you might be tempted to use.
”

“
Aubrey,
with the exception of reaching for a beer when you first told me, I
’
ve honestly not even considered
using.
”
I gave a wry laugh.
“
All of this has actually been good
for me, I think. It
’
s made me focus on something else
entirely
—
not how bad I need or want a fix.
Of course, that may be because I found a new drug that is occupying my mind
every waking minute, and several dream minutes, as well. I
’
ve kind of been consumed with you.
”

It wasn
’
t an exaggeration. I could hardly
focus; my mind was so wrapped up in being with her, and inside her, and doing
things to make her moan, scream, and call out my name. Shit, I was getting hard
again already just thinking about it. I swear it was like I was constantly
erect. I couldn
’
t get my damn cock to stay down
when I was around her. Not that I wasn
’
t enjoying all that.

“
That
’
s what worries me. You joke about
it, but it
’
s very natural for an addict to
trade one addiction for another. I don
’
t want to become your new
addiction. You need help unlearning that kind of behavior, and therapy will
help you with that. This is part of the reason why they encourage you not to
start new relationships. This is a time when you should be focusing solely on
you and recovering.
”

I disagreed.
“
Baby, I don
’
t think that
’
s the case at all. If anything, you
were my first addiction. When I lost you I found the second addiction in my
desperate attempt to quiet the guilt and pain inside me. Now that you
’
re here, all the reasons I was
using don
’
t matter anymore.
”
That wasn
’
t entirely correct, but I was
trying to make a point. I wanted to show her how she made me feel.
“
You
’
re
back. You
’
re in my life. You
’
ve given me an amazing son. I feel
more complete than I ever have.
”

Raising her hand, she silenced me, shaking her head.
“
Wait a minute, now. The only reason
you had guilt and pain in the first place is because you were too wasted to
realize you were sleeping with the wrong person. This kind of partying was
happening before you cheated on me.
”

“
True,
but even part of that was driven by the fact that I missed you. The rest was
just falling into this new life and job and trying to fit in by doing what
everyone else was doing. It was more than I could handle, but I didn
’
t notice until it was too late.
”

“
That
surprises me. You never were a follower
—
not once in the whole time I
’
ve known you. You
’
ve always made your own choices and
if you didn
’
t want to do something, no one
could coerce you into it.
”

“
Yes,
but that was in Montana. It
’
s different there than it is here.
I was in a new place, doing new things that I knew nothing about. I felt
completely lost and even a little star struck at the same time. I
’
d never done anything like that
before. It
’
s hard when you
’
re trying to impress people in
charge of your career all the time. It
’
s like I had to be on twenty-four
seven, ready to wow the next person they put me in front of.

“
Even
shooting was crazy. You piss off one big photographer and they can literally
destroy your career. You have to be perfect all the time.
”

“
You
already were perfect. Why
’
d you feel the need to change
yourself for anyone?
”

I wished I knew how to make her understand what it had
been like. But I wasn
’
t sure she could grasp it without
having lived it.
“
The people out here are different.
Everyone wants to hitch their wagon to a star. No one thinks twice about
stabbing someone else in the back to get it. It
’
s
very dog eat dog around here. I
’
m not going to lie
—
it was a bit intimidating for a
country farm boy like me, who was trying to fit in. I knew absolutely no one
except people from work, so I simply tried to blend in with them the best I
could.
”

“
That
’
s not an excuse. You have to admit
your responsibility.
”

Frustration washed through me.
“
Believe me, I
’
m not trying to give you excuses. I
’
m simply trying to show you my
reasoning behind it.
”

She nodded, glancing to where a picture of Dustin
rested on a bookshelf.
“
I just need to know without a doubt
that our son is safe with you. I mean, I hate even saying that, but we do need
to be alert and aware of things and start making some conscious decisions
together.
”

“
I
’
m good with that.
”
A feeling of relief washed through
me.
“
What kind of decisions are you
wanting to make?
”
