When we got to the room where the rest of the cast was waiting, I introduced my wife. “A
“Nice to meet you all. I just saw your set. It’s pretty amazing.” She winked at me and my dick twitched. Fuck, I’d love to take her on Ace’s bed again.
Harold handed me a script though. “Best get started.” He introduced me to the guy who’d be directing the episode; it was a different person from last time.
While I flipped through the script, the director dude held his hand up. “Okay, in this episode, the main story line is Scarlet hooks up with Stix to try and forget about Ace.”
He pointed at me, and I nudged A

I clapped my hands together once she was gone. “All right! Let’s kill this shit!”
When I got home after rehearsal wrapped up, I felt like my head was going to explode. It was a lot to remember, and I already felt like I remembered too much, what with all the D-Bags lyrics and rhythms spi

Ignoring her, Gibson tossed her arms around my legs like we’d been separated our entire lives. “Daddy!” she exclaimed.
“Hey, kiddo,” I said, putting a hand on her back. “Be nice to your sister…and listen to your mom.” A
Lifting Gibson, I twisted her around so she could ride on my shoulders. Usually when I did this, she grabbed my hair and used it like reins, but I had a lot less hair now. “This is weird. I like your old hair,” she told me. She timidly patted my De

Mom barked an order from the kitchen to help her with di
“Ace bass.” She giggled.
I shrugged. “Close enough.”
Mom pointed to a bowl of potatoes when I got to the kitchen, so I moved to the counter to help her peel them. A
Shaking my head, I told her, “Nah, I was too busy promoting that stupid album.” A flash of something painful washed over me—that “stupid album” was releasing soon. Without me. I shook my head harder to shake out the feelings I shouldn’t be having. Didn’t matter what the D-Bags were doing. Gibson giggled as she wrapped her arms around my head to hold on. “Why?

“Already taken care of,” I told her with a smile. “We have three housekeepers, one for each floor, two cooks, a butler…to do whatever butlers do…three yard guys, a pool guy, and two drivers. Oh, and two na
She didn’t seem as pleased about my lineup as I thought she would be. “We can’t afford that many people, Griffin. And I don’t mind doing stuff around the house.”
“Yes, we can. We’re rich, babe. And you shouldn’t have to do anything around the house. That’s the benefit of being rich.”
She took a calming breath. “We did well off the two D-Bag albums, and hopefully the third, but that won’t last long if we—”
