《Nothing Lasts Forever》14. Reprecussions

"I know I am late, sorry" I rush out as I run onto set in the Parisian inspired outfit that was in my trailer when I first got there
Hunter rolls her eyes at my late arrival.
"Unprofessional as always, Delaney" she cannot help herself but comment as I walk past her
I cannot help but laugh at her.
"You have a lot of nerve calling me unprofessional considering you were fucking a fucking extra in my trailer the first day of filming" I say, not caring who hears
The raven haired girl glares at me, seemingly going to insult me.
"Can you both shut up for five minutes?!"
Hunter and I turn to face an annoyed Gigi who just so happens to have the same megaphone from earlier this week.
"I haven't commented on it because I thought that the two of you would be professional enough to work through your personal problems within a week maximum but I guess not!" She continues to yell into said megaphone
At the sound of Gigi yelling everyone on set becomes deafeningly silent.
"You're two twenty-three year olds arguing like ten year olds and I'm done with it!"
"You both have amazing chemistry together but can't get over yourselves long enough to allow it to consistently be showcased on camera,"
I avoid eye contact with Gigi, too embarrassed to look her in the eyes.
I feel like a kid who is being scolded by a teacher for misbehaving.
"Either the both of you can push your differences aside long enough to finish this movie or you can both be replaced!" She finishes
She waits for either of us to say something before speaking into her megaphone again.
"Places everyone!" She yells
Hunter makes her way towards the red 'X' in the hall while I close the door and make my way towards the red 'X' in the bedroom.
Apparently this is my character's bedroom.
It is more crowded than I would have expected.
Either way I cannot believe they rented out this place for the film.
"Action!" Gigi calls out due to it already being quiet on set
Hunter knocks on the door which I end up swinging open a few moments later.
The two of make our way down the upstairs hallway.
"Let me guess, is it your coronation?" Genevieve whispers as soon as we are a good distance away from the other guard who was standing near my bedroom door

I slow down a bit so that the two of us are walking side by side.
"Nope" I whisper back
She is silent as we pass a maid, I smile at said maid out of respect.
"How about your eighteenth birthday?" She asks again
I smile at this guess.
"Close, but no" I reply
I hear her release a small chuckle.
"Then it must be that little boy," she waves her hand
"Cane" she pretends to forget his name
I laugh out loud at her joke as we approach the staircase.
"Is someone jealous?" I tease
She scoffs.
"Please," they neither agree nor deny
"I just know that he isn't your type" she states
I raise an eyebrow at her as we continue to descend down the large, extravagant staircase.
"Oh yeah? What is my type then?" I ask her, a curious smile resting on my face
She waits until we reach the first floor to speak again.
"Me" she shrugs before making her way towards the front door
I quietly groan out loud before jogging to catch up with her.
I reach the bodyguard just as they open the door for me.
"Meet me near the bushes tonight?" She whispers near my ear as I walk past them
I make sure to hide my eager smile due to the guards waiting five feet in front of us and the photographers twenty feet away from us.
"I would not miss it, Genny" I use her nickname that I gave her before making my way towards the wall of guards
Said guards escort me towards the long black limo that is waiting outside of the large building.
One of them even goes as far as to open the door for me which I thank them for.
"Hello there, beautiful" Bane rasps as I slide into the limousine seat beside him
It takes everything in me not to laugh at Wesley calling me 'babe' in a douchey voice
I smile at the guards and wait for them to close the door before speaking my mind.
"Do not even try to flirt your way out of this, Cane" I cross my arms against my chest
The Prince furrows his eyebrows at me.
"Cane?" He asks
My eyes widen the slightest bit at this.
"Who is this Cane?" I ask him

The Prince sits up straighter in his seat, becoming defensive.
"You just called me Cane, I should be asking you that!" He practically explodes
Wow! Wesley is a really great actor.
"Get your ears checked, I said Bane" is all that I reply
I turn to glance out of the window at the passing pedestrians, ignoring the annoyed male next to me.
"And...cut!"
A smile immediately breaks out onto my face as I turn to face the blonde haired boy.
"Dude! Why did you not tell me you were an amazing actor?!" I shake his shoulders to emphasize my point
Wesley chuckles at my reaction.
"I had to leave something to the imagination" she jokes
I scoff.
The two of us climb out of the limo and make our way up the driveway towards the stairs.
As the two of us approach said stairs I notice someone standing inside of the building who was not there earlier.
Oh no.
Nicole is standing near one of the staircases with her arms crossed in front of her chest.
"Delaney Carson" she grits out with a firm tone
I jog up to her as fast as I can in these heels.
"Nicole, I can explain!" I quietly stress
The older woman raises an eyebrow at me.
"Please! Please explain to me how you ignore my clear instructions that I wanted you at the photoshoot an hour ago?!" She tries her best not to yell
I glance around only to notice some extras looking at us with curiosity.
"Can we please talk about this later?" I ask
The older woman's eyes widen at this.
"No, we'll talk about this on the way to the photoshoot,"
The older woman grabs ahold of my wrist and begins to drag me out of the large building.
"The photographer, hair and makeup team were kind enough to wait for us" she informs me
I yank my arm out of hers just as we reach the door.
"No Nicole! I am not going to bail on all of these people just so that you can get a few photos taken of me!" I whisper yell at her
Nicole glares at me, obviously not liking the fact that I am arguing with her.
The woman goes to say something only to be cut off by a voice.
"Hey," a voice says as they slip their arm around my shoulder
"Is everything okay over here?" They ask
I glance up at Gigi who appears to be very ticked off.
She has never appeared to be this ticked off before, even when she has yelled at Hunter and I.
"Yeah, it was just a little disagreement" I lie as I do not wish to worry her
Gigi hums but her facial expression remains.
I turn back to face Nicole only to notice a fake smile resting on her red lipstick painted lips.
"I was just telling Delaney here to meet me in my office tomorrow morning," Nicole chuckles
The woman then turns to face me.
"No later than seven" her fake smile does not fall as she walks away from Gigi and I
Gigi waits until Nicole is a few feet away from to speak up again.
"Hey, are you okay?" She asks with a genuine tone of voice
I turn to face her only to realize that she is looking over me for any scratches or injuries.
I feel my heart beat a little harder at her caring action.
"Yeah, she will not risk anything in front of all these people" the words leave my mouth before I can stop them
Gigi's eyes widen with horror at my sentence.
As the words that I just said register in my head my eyes widen as well.
Gigi grabs ahold of my hands and pulls me closer towards her so that she can whisper to me.
"Has she laid her hands on you? Because if she has then-" Gigi whispers
"No...well...not in the way that you are thinking" I shake my head
Gigi gives me a worried facial expression.
I try my best to assure her that I am fine but she does not believe me.
The woman digs into the pocket of her jeans.
"I want you to give me a call the next time that she lays her hands on you," She tells me
"Or if you're ready for another manager" she winks
The woman places a business card in my hand before making her way over towards one of the other camera people.
Hmm. A new manager does not sound too displeasing at the moment.

8 201The Brotherhood
Follow Jacob as he heads off to begin his academic career as a freshman at Kingsland University. Although KU is one of the country's most prestigious institutions for higher learning, a school where many of the world's elite send their sons and daughter, it was not why Jacob picked Kingsland. Like many of the young men attending KU for the first time, his sole desire, above all else, was to become a member of The Brotherhood. He's heard the many stories and rumors surrounding this mysterious and secretive organization. Jacob is eager to peel back the layers and discover The Brotherhood's secrets, to wield its power, but will he be able to handle the truth that is their reality? Can he step thru that door and never look back? Those are just some questions he will face on his journey of self-discovery. Will Jacob be strong enough to see it thru to the end? Are you? _______________________ ***Content Warning*** This story focuses on gay characters and places them in sexual situations. Although the sexual content is not the story’s main focus, it does appear throughout, especially in the earlier chapters. Feel free to give The Brotherhood a pass if it's not your cup of tea. But if you give it a chance, it might surprise you. The story is not what you expect. I first posted The Brotherhood online in 2001 and finished it in 2013. Over the years, it developed a loyal following that has been waiting for a sequel for many moons. That time has finally come. I want to release a more updated version of TBH before dropping the new chapters for the sequel. I hope you enjoy it!
