I watch as he steps closer and smiles at me.
“Alexis, your manager…erm, Elon, said I would find you here,” he looks towards the door, and I laugh.
“Let me guess, he was fucking someone when you arrived and didn’t care to stop?” I smile at him, and he nods.
“Seen as our night got cancelled early, I came to rearrange it and discuss a few issues, which recently just came too lightly,” he says as he pulls the chair out.
“You’re late!” The voice has me whipping my head around. “Move your fucking ass!” Dale screams at me.
“A lower tone and nicer language might work better,” Mr Pierce looks at him.
“What? Fuck off, asshole, move it, Alexis!” He shouts, and I stand. I am late, I was meant to be filming five minutes ago. I go to walk over and Mr Pierce stops me.
“She won’t be walking any further until you ask her politely,” he says while smirking.

“Consider yourself fired, mate, I’m telling Elon, so get lost,” Dale glares at him.
“You can’t fire me; I don’t work for you.” Mr Pierce grins and leans back in his chair, his hand still wrapped around my arm. Clara grins like she’s watching a film.
“It’s fine,” I say and try to prise his grip open, but he refuses to let go.
“It isn’t fine. You have a choice: You can ask her nice or get Elon and tell him My Pierce would like to talk.” He looks at Dale, and I watch the roll of Dale’s throat as he swallows.
“I apologise. I didn’t realise it was you,” Dale mutters and looks
at me.
“Can you please come on set and do your video,” Dale grits out through clenched teeth.
“There, that wasn’t so hard, was it?” Mr Pierce grins at him and releases me.
“I will message you, yes?” I look at him.
“Why? I shall wait, maybe enjoy the live show,” Mr Pierce laughs.
“You’re not allowed…“Dale’s words stop. “Forget it,” he turns and

walks out with my following. Yeah, he was about to tell him he isn’t allowed on set.
Considering who he is, even Dale won’t do that as he has no idea how Mr Pierce is helping the company or Elon. Now though, I feel awkward, I never feel nervous or awkward while filming, but knowing he is watching makes me feel anxious.
The scene starts bad and just gets worse. Every now and then, I see Mr Pierce sitting with a coffee like he’s in a business meeting. He smiles and winks at me, which isn’t too bad until he begins pulling weird faces and doing weird signals, and I’m laughing.
Not a great look, here I am getting fucked, and I can’t keep a straight face. Mr Pierce and Clara, however, are highly amused. I have to say though, it’s the most fun I’ve had filming a scene in
ages.
“Fuck sake Bunny Wild!” Trevor looks at me, and I laugh.
“I’m sorry, I swear. No more laughing.” As I say this, I look. towards Mr. Pierce and regret it because I begin laughing at him.
“You’re fucking mocking me!” Trevor glares, and I try to stop laughing and fail.
“God dammit Alexis!” Dale shouts, and I glare at him. “Sorry,

Bunny Wild,” he says quickly. Yeah, he’s not meant to use my real name around others while filming. “Can you stop fucking laughing and focus?”
I nod, and I do try, but it’s hard, and I laugh again.
“I’m still getting paid, she fucked it up,” Trevor glares at me. “My hour is over,” he storms off.
“What is wrong with you? You’re working an hour for free, considering we had to pay him for nothing!” Dale shouts
“What?” He can’t just demand I work an hour free.
“You heard, get ready for another hour’s work,” his words are loud.
“That isn’t in her contract,” Mr Pierce steps around her. “If you want someone to blame, point your finger my way; it was me distracting her,” he steps closer to Dale.
“Fine, no extra hour,” Dale turns and walks off.
“I apologise. It was too good to resist. I only meant to distract and make you laugh once, but it was highly amusing, so I kept going,” Mr Pierce grins, and I laugh.
“Let me shower, then talk,” I turn to walk away, and he stops me.

“It won’t take long. I need to reschedule our slot,” he winks.
“You need to book it with Elon,” not me. It’s not up to me when I
work.
“Oh, I went to. Which is when I learnt he was only giving you five thousand out of the fifty I was paying.” My eyes widen at his words. “Apparently, while he’s fucking he doesn’t concentrate on what he is saying, so I want to cut out the middle man. You get the entire fifty.”
Shit. I stare at him.
“What do you say, Bunny Wild? You do what we planned without Elon’s input and keep the entire money for yourself.” He smiles and waits.
I can’t. It is going to cost two hundred thousand to buy myself out of the contract, and I still have two years left. It’s not possible. While I’m under the contract, I can not do anything around the sector without his approval first, which means he
takes a cut.
“I’m sorry, Mr. Pierce, but that isn’t possible. My contract states that any work such as this has to go through Elon,” I explain.
“Let me sort it with Him, or better yet, we don’t say.” He smiles at
me.

“He will know when the video comes out,” I remind him.

“I didn’t plan to release it, Alexis. You choose what you want to do with your copy, but mine was solely for personal use.” His words shocked me. He was paying that much purely for a video and to have me for one hour. Is he crazy? I thought he was going to distribute the video to earn back his money.
“You look shocked. What I was paying is nothing to me. I don’t need to get the money back. This was always for pleasure, Alexis. The question is, do we do it alone, or do you keep Elon involved?” he asks.
I should refuse, but if it’s not going to be put out there, Elon won’t know. To him, Mr Pierce decided against it, and he won’t know. The money will help.
He stands waiting for me to make a decision. Do I or don’t I?
