Hearing Camilla I reply: “I’m more than ready whenever you are.” I give her outer thighs a couple of firm, full of love pats, waiting for her response.

Billie's POV

Me and Gemma were waiting at the airport for our plane home. It had been a beautiful trip and tears were running down our cheeks as we looked back on our week

Gemma wiped her tears and volunteered to get us a drink and a snack each. After wiping my own tears, I gave her a kiss on the lips. I tucked my booted legs up on my chair so I could fondle my boot toes and scratch the zip with a nail.

I let a couple more tears run down my cheeks. I loved my partner so much, and I was so grateful I had met her, and that she trusted me enough to share her fortune with her. 

Gemma returned with our snacks and wiped my last tear before we shared another kiss.

He replies that he is more than ready as he gives my outer thighs a couple more pats. His response was all I needed, that and those last pats. Nearly immediately I felt my body finally tense as it began to bathe his member. Not being able to hold on even if I tried.

Rachel's POV

Kate had managed to book another audition, and this one looked to be quite interesting. It was for a film set in Medieval times, and she the role she was going up for was Lady Rose, the Queen's sister and her unofficial advisor. Simultaneously however she was having an affair with one of her ladies maids Gwen.

Me, Robyn and Caitlin helped her prepare for the audition over the following week. She was determined to do well as she hadn't had a large job for 10 months.

On the morning of the audition, I was working a lunch shift. I gave her a loving kiss and a hug before she left, wishing her good luck.

However when I returned from my shift, Kate was back. She was very upset, tears streaming down her face. Her audition had been cancelled and it wasn't going to be rescheduled

I wrapped my arms around her in comfort as she sobbed into my shoulder, wetting my work blouse. I closed my eyes, as a pair of tears streamed down my face too

Kate's POV

The unenviable task of telling me what was going on fell to Margot Reay, a producer on Shadows of Avalon. She informed me that the film's star - Leonora Wakefield - had co-star approval in her contract and she didn't approve me.

This revelation caused me to ask another question;

'I haven't been in the industry for long' I explained to Margot 'And I know I'm not the most talented actress, but I would hope that my work ethic and professionalism count for something'

'We know' Margot informed me. 'We did speak to some of your co-workers, nobody had a bad word to say about you. We did try and explain all of this to her, but Leonora wasn't having it. Finally she said she would accept if we paid her extra money, which again is in her contract. We couldn't come to an agreement which is why we had to cancel your audition when we did.'

She paused

'If it makes you feel any better, the receptionist you talked to wasn't happy either' Margot continued. 'She tore a strip off us when you left'

There wasn't anything more to be said

'Thank you Margot' I replied. 'Good luck' Hanging up the phone, I turned to Amy. She had worked miracles but had another audition for me. A lead role in The Rose and the Yew Tree, a mini series adaptation of the Mary Westmacott novel. I was already aware of this book, as Evie had sent me a full set of Mary Westmacott's as a thank you gift after her Tony win.

As they had promised my friends and family helped me prepare. Imelda was of the opinion that Leonora was scared I'd upstage her

'There's no other explanation KD' she told me.

When I got to my first audition, I was surprised and delighted to see Maddie Carter on the judging panel. She was the writer and one of the Executive Producers on the show.

'I'm so glad your here' she said, tears running down her cheeks. I was grateful for her kind words and after Maddie had wiped her tears, I did my reading.

Later I had a couple of further readings with the two groups of actors who were auditioning to be my love interests - my character was in a love triangle. It seemed to go well and I left very pleased

I needed to have a couple of callbacks, but the day after my third audition, Maddie phoned me personally to tell me I had the part
