Dragon's Clutch (Sanmere Shifters Book 3)
herself, getting fired would mean she would likely never find any more assistant work. Word spread quickly in this industry and no one wanted someone working for them who had been fired from their last assistant’s position. The only solution Brianne could see was to wait until the movie was wrapped up. Valerie still wouldn’t be happy about it, but there was a good chance she wouldn’t even find out when they weren’t all working together for upwards of fourteen hours a day.The working fourteen hours a day thing was the main reason why Brianne didn’t just quit and hope Valerie let her go. There was no way she and Callin would be able to see anything of each other while his schedule was so intense, so to Brianne, it just made sense to wait.
She told herself she was getting way ahead of herself. They’d had sex once. She didn’t even know if Callin wanted to do it again, let alone wait almost a year for her. And even assuming he did, did she want that? In theory, she did want that. Callin made her feel alive, and there was no doubting that she craved him mentally and physically. She was really starting to think he was the one. But was she willing to think about becoming a dragon herself and becoming immortal? It was a huge thing to consider, and right now, she shouldn’t even be thinking about it. She wasn’t even supposed to know that Callin was a dragon.
Hypothetically, if things were to somehow work out with her and Callin, she would either have to wait for the right moment to tell him she knew what he was, or wait for him to find the right moment to confess the truth to her. That would mean they were pretty serious by that point, and it might be too late for her to think about it rationally.
She gave her head a little shake, trying to clear her mind. It was a one-night stand, she told herself. Nothing more, nothing less. Stop overthinking everything and making a big deal out of it. You’re acting like a high school student.
She got out of the car. It was still early and all of the cars she spotted belonged to crew members and other assistants. Filming wasn’t due to start for another hour and it would be a while before any of the cast started to show up.
Brianne resisted the urge to roll her eyes as she headed for Valerie’s trailer. Valerie had her come in an hour before filming started for the sole purpose of switching on the heater in her trailer. Brianne had tried to tell her she could set a timer for the heat to come on, but Valerie’s response had been to say that was fine, but then she still needed to be here to make sure the timer didn’t fail.
God, she’s unbearable, Brianne thought as she let herself into the trailer and moved over to the thermostat. She flicked the heat on. Even if things don’t work out for me and Callin, when this movie is done, I need to be done with Valerie too. I mean, what is she even protecting our family from? It’s not like people were regularly getting attacked by dragons.
Brianne started to fill the sink to wash up the glasses, cups, and plates Valerie had used yesterday. In theory, she could take them to the kitchen and have the staff there wash them, but it took longer to go there, wait for them to be done, and come back than it did to just do them herself.
She had barely gotten started on the small pile of dishes when she heard a soft knock on the door. She frowned. So Valerie wasn’t even capable of opening a door herself now? She told herself she was being unreasonable. It was likely to be one of the runners with some script changes or a message or something. She wiped her hands on the tea towel and pulled the door open.
Brianne’s breath caught in her throat when she saw Callin standing on the steps to the trailer. He looked every bit as handsome as he always did and the sight of him brought back memories of last night. Good memories. Amazing memories. Memories of how he had kissed her so hungrily that it felt like he had waited a lifetime for her. How he had made her come so hard she thought she might pass out. How he had held her afterwards and made her feel so warm and safe.
“Valerie’s not here yet,” Brianne managed to say.
“Perfect,” Callin said with a smile that made Brianne’s pussy dampen.
Brianne stepped back as Callin came the rest of the way up the steps and stepped inside of the trailer. He was already reaching for her as he kicked the door to the trailer shut behind him. His hands cupped her face as he pulled her toward him and she wrapped her arms around his waist as their lips collided.
Tingles went through Brianne’s lips and all through her body as Callin’s tongue ran over hers. She pressed her body against his, craving the closeness they had shared last night. She could feel his cock, hard against her stomach, as she pressed closer to him. More than anything, she wanted to feel him inside of her again. She moved her hands lower, cupping his ass and squirming against him. He moaned into her mouth as she rubbed herself across him.
She brought her hands around to the front of his body, easing herself back enough to make room for them. She tugged on his belt, opening it, and then she unfastened the button on his jeans and thrust one of her hands inside of them. She pushed her hand into his boxer shorts and stroked it over his cock. He moaned again as she encircled his cock in her fist.
He moved his mouth from hers, kissing her neck as she worked his cock.
