The next morning, I began by texting Sasha.

​[Druski: Sorry about Yesterday..... We need to meet ASAP. We got a new scene to shoot.]

​She replied almost immediately.

​[Sasha: no need to apologize. I was careless. Didn't know I was inviting opps to my bed. I'm still up for Jess's offer. Hit me up when you're both ready.]

​"Simple as that?" I grinned. Sasha was unphased that she had somehow been entangled in my business with the mafia. She was willing to continue with the shoots.

​"Business. It's always business with her."

​Since she had given me a green light, what was left was talking to Jess, if she was ready for the shoot.

​I got dressed then remembered I had to check on my XXX Global hub page.

​Only two hundred of the seventeen thousand subscribers had paid for a lifetime access. I had made $7,198 ($200 subs multiplied by $35.99) in less than a day, which wasn't a bad start. I added it to the thirteen thousand in my system's digital wallet, bringing my liquid cash total to $20,198 USD.

​"A 1.17% conversion rate is terrible. I need more content, more girls, and more traffic," I muttered, then grabbed my keys and headed out of my room.

​I was about to get into my car when I noticed a familiar, imposing vehicle parked across the road. It was Two-bit's Raptor.

​He honked, then waved at me through the window, his large, bald head filling the driver's side glass.

​"What the fuck's he doing here?" I mumbled. Big Mom wasn't wasting any time establishing surveillance.

​I walked towards him.

​"Good morning, superstar!" Two-bit called out, his voice booming. "Big Mom sent me. You're too valuable now to be driving around alone."

​"Sent you for what? To be my chauffeur?" I asked, trying to keep the annoyance out of my voice.

​"Nah, your bodyguard," he corrected, leaning over to unlock the passenger door. "Also, I'm here to ensure you stay focused on Big Mom's investment. No more motels, no more running. You shoot porn, I keep you alive, and I report back to Abigail. Get in. We're going to the gym."

Two-bit had just confirmed I was under full-time surveillance, but also full-time protection. His presence, while annoying, was a resource.

​I got into the Raptor. "Look, Two-bit, I need to work, which means I would like to focus on that only, no distractions. I love working without people watching my every move."

​"I don't like babysitting either, Druski. I got better places to be. My orders are simple: Keep you breathing and keep you on schedule. I'll take you to the gym, then wherever you need to go. Boss's orders, I just follow."

​"How did you know I was going to the gym anyway?" I asked, testing the limits of his knowledge.

​"Red Eye told me. She said you go to the gym every morning," said Two-bit.

​"She did, huh?" I said, realizing that Abigail hadn't just been a client or a handler; she had been watching my daily routine even before the kidnapping.

​"To the gym then," I said, taking a seat on the passenger side.

​When we arrived at the gym, he pulled out a hot dog and began eating, then started playing "If I Can't" by 50 Cent loud enough to shake the truck. "I will be waiting for you here. When you're done, you come and get me. Don't ever think of ditching me, nigga."

​I nodded. "Bet," then went inside.

I found Jess talking to Maya at the reception desk.

​"Ah, there he is, the devil himself," Jess said as soon as she saw me, a playful but sharp edge in her voice. "Maya was just asking about you."

​Maya's cheeks flashed. Was she blushing?

​"No, I wasn't. Jess was the one talking about how you skipped yesterday's session and ghosted her," Maya quickly corrected, smiling nervously.

​I chuckled. "Yeah, about that? I had this situation at home. Sorry I couldn't make it."

​"What kind of situation forbids you from answering my phone calls or returning texts, Druski?" Jess demanded, crossing her arms.

​"It's complicated. I can't answer that for now... Can we talk somewhere private?" I said, nodding toward the commotion of the gym floor.

​"We can talk at the gym bench," Jess said, already heading that way.

​I nodded at Maya, who gave me a quick, curious wave, then followed Jess.

​"I know what you want to talk to me about," Jess said as soon as we were out of earshot. "I'm ready."

​I smiled, relieved that I didn't have to launch into the Big Mom saga just yet. "Seems like you read my mind, ma'am. When can we shoot the scene?"

​"Today," she said, almost loudly, her excitement clearly bubbling up. "We can do it after this session. Is Sasha on the same page as we are?"

​"She's all good to go. She was just waiting for the green light from you," I lied slightly, knowing Sasha was probably still recuperating from her encounter with Abigail, but also knowing she'd be ready for business.

​"Then we better hurry through the sets," Jess said, a competitive glint in her eye. "I can't wait for her to suck my pussy."

An hour and a half later, we exited the building.

​"Since this is your show, where are we shooting the scene?" I asked.

​"At my house," Jess said. "We gotta pick up Sasha and your equipment. Let me call an Uber."

​I smiled. "No need. I got a car."

​I led her toward Two-bit's Raptor. He was asleep, his massive head resting awkwardly against the window, the low bass of 50 Cent still vibrating softly through the truck. I knocked sharply on his window, and he woke up instantly, snapping into defense mode, his hand moving toward the center console.

​"Just me, bro, unlock the doors," I said, putting my hands up slightly.

​He scowled, recognizing me, and unlocked the doors. I got in the front seat, and Jess got in the back.

​"Is this your car?" Jess asked, looking around the massive, intimidating interior.

​"The car's not mine, but the driver is mine," I said with a smirk, flexing my new, dangerous leverage.

​Two-bit gave me a sinister smile. "You a funny nigger."

​"Sasha's place first, then we swing by my house to grab the equipment," I instructed Two-bit. "Jess, let's talk business while we drive."
