Hot Cop Boxed Set

by Paige, Laurelin

  Yeah, I’m not thinking about that either.

  I drop my robe and, naked now, do a quick inspection of my bikini area, making sure everything is nice and groomed before donning the white cotton panties that the director chose from the handful I brought as options. I pair it with a baby-blue tank top, no bra, then I pull my hair into two pigtails. “How do I look?”

  Logan balances the camera on the edge of the sink, aiming it so that it will still catch us in the frame. “Come here,” he says, grabbing the hem of my tank to tug me to him. “You look so fucking hot, it’s killing me.” He presses my hand against his bulge to prove it.

  Then he kisses me—sweetly but hungrily. It’s a short kiss, yet I’m flushed when he pulls away. He gives me a stupid grin. “Lick some ass.”

  I want to ask if it bothers him that I’m about to get off with someone else. I want to ask if it bothers him that I let girls make me come. I want to ask if it will bother him when, later, when Bruce Madden makes me come.

  But I don’t. Because I don’t want to hear that the long and short answer is “no.”

  There’s lots of kissing in Lynne Femke’s lesbian porn. Though I do a variety of heat levels, Lynne’s tend to be the sweeter scenes.

  “You’re just so curvy and soft,” the Swedish director told me once. “I could spend hours watching women touch you.”

  So it’s no surprise when today Lynne’s direction calls for an extensive make-out session. “Lots of breast play, please. Then, Kendi, I want you to fuck Devi with your fingers.” She shows us the position she wants us to be in for the climax—literal climax—and then we’re ready to shoot.

  Logan has his camera packed away now and is sitting by himself on a folding chair in the corner of the room. He wants to stay out of the way; as if I’ll forget he’s there if he’s farther from me.

  I’m certain I won’t be able to forget. He’s the kind of guy that’s unforgettable.

  But, to my surprise, I’m really not as distracted by him as I thought I’d be. He’s there, and I’m constantly aware of that, but I’m good at my job, good at focusing on the person in front of me.

  Kendi’s a pro, too. We run quickly through the cheesy dialogue that sets up the scene—two college girls who have been assigned to be roommates. It’s our first night together in the dorm, and Kendi’s character, the returning student in the scenario, has taken it upon herself to teach my character how to…well, how to “get fucked by a girl.”

  Admittedly, I’m not that great of an actress. If I were, I’d probably be performing in a completely different kind of film. My lack of skill doesn’t bother me—porn isn’t about acting. It’s about providing just enough visual and verbal cues to establish a fantasy and then genuinely focusing on the other person.

  Figuring out how to turn someone on is like figuring out a math equation. How much of this will equal this? How many kisses before her breath gets shallow? How many flicks of my thumb over her nipple before it’s hard? How many strokes of her clit before her thighs start to tense?

  Today, the math is easy because Kendi, in her role as teacher, is giving me all the answers. She’s telling me what feels good in words as well as body language. Naturally dominant, she’s good at this part, and I willingly submit, giving into the command of her soft lips and firm tongue invading my mouth. She tastes like mouthwash and the Skittles I saw her munching on before we started filming. Until she doesn’t. Until we’ve kissed so long, so deeply that our tastes have mingled and the only flavor in my mouth is want and pleasure.

  We move through the steps of seduction organically, hands roaming over curves and slopes, under shirts, over cotton panties. Our clothes come off and, while I caress and grope the softest parts of her body, she makes love to my breasts, her tongue laving first one nipple then the other, turning them into sharp, rosy peaks.

  I’m lost in delight. Before her fingers even find my clit, I’m wet and throbbing with need. Kendi’s a good lover, and I’m desperate for her to get me off. And, yes, I’d be into this no matter what, but I’m even more desperate for her because I know Logan is watching. Because I suspect that Logan is just as hot for this as I am.

  If only I could watch him back…

  But the cameras are on, and the story is just Kendi and I, so my eyes are pinned on her as her mouth roams lower and lower, as her tongue finds my most sensitive parts, as she brings me to delicious climax.

  We shift positions, kissing for long moments before, at Lynne’s direction, Kendi turns me so my back is pressed up against her front. Her breasts push into my skin as she wraps herself around me so her hands can stroke my pussy. She swirls a fingertip across my clit, and when she slides her longest finger inside of me, I look up. I catch Logan’s eyes.

  And the whole scene changes.

  Logan is still as he watches, riveted, and the expression on his face is so wild and hot, so intense, so provocative, that I’m as transfixed as he is. I can’t look away. It’s Kendi who’s stroking me, Kendi who’s finger fucking me to orgasm, but all I can see is Logan. All I can think is Logan. All I can feel is Logan, Logan, Logan.

  Images of the night before come back to me, vivid and alive. “Your pussy is so good.” The memory of Logan’s raspy words fills my head. The way he looked so greedy and driven and starved as he shoved inside of me. “I’m going to come so hard for you, going to come so fucking hard…”

  The memory transforms into fantasy, and the words I hear aren’t ones he spoke then, but ones I imagine he’s speaking to me now. Greedy, greedy girl, he says from across the distance.

  Please, I beg. Put it in me. Put it in me now.

  That’s not how I want you to come.

  But I need you.

  He’s unflinching. This isn’t about you right now.

  And he’s right—this isn’t about me. I can see clearly that he is as swept away with this fantasy as I am, whether or not the words he hears in his head match the ones that play in mine. It doesn’t matter. We are in this together. This scene is about us. This moment is about us.

  It could be like this, he tells me. Our world. Filming with each other, for each other. This could be the future you were looking for. This could be us.

  I’m coming, my pussy throbbing, my hips stuttering as they buck against Kendi’s hand, my breath frozen as Logan encourages my climax. Give it to me, Devi. Give it to me, Goddess. Layla. Cass, the Queen of the Night.

  The fantasy swells with my release, pieces of the puzzle shifting into place—the star I could be with him, the movies we could make, the art. How we could go on working together, how we could go on seeing each other. How we could go on…together.

  I’m completely spent when it hits me—I don’t just want to make porn with Logan O’Toole; I want to make a life.

  Fourteen

  The scene goes long.

  Lynne says it was too beautiful, and she couldn’t bear to call cut. “Absolutely the best thing I’ve seen from you,” she says, and I look past her to Logan, who has surely heard her, and I wonder if he knows, like I do, that he’s the reason my performance today was so superb.

  I don’t have time to find out because now I’m running late for the P in V scene that I have booked with LaRue, and I barely have a chance to gather my things and kiss Logan goodbye before I have to be on the road.

  It’s not a long drive, and instead of using the little time I have to prepare mentally for the next scene, I spend it thinking about the one I just left. Thinking about last night. Thinking about Logan, and how he’s burrowed inside me, how I should have maybe built more walls to keep him out. How I don’t know what my career will look like now that he’s in my life. Wondering how I will ever be able to work again without him.

  It’s not until I’m parked in the driveway of the mansion that LaRue has rented in the Hills that I finally pull my thoughts into focus and realize I’m about to film my first het sex without him. A male/female scene without Logan.

  Oh shit.


  Seriously, oh shit.

  I’m being silly. I’ve done lots of scenes without Logan. I’ve had lots of sex that wasn’t with Logan. I can have sex now in a scene without Logan.

  I start to get out of the car, and my stomach lurches. For half a second I wonder if I can pretend I’m sick, but I quickly dismiss that plan. The phrase “the show must go on”? I’m pretty sure a porn director coined it. After a performer has been booked and the contracts have been signed, there’s almost nothing that could prevent the show from being filmed. Even if the performer is on the rag, even if she’s puking her guts up, even if she’s got Montezuma’s Revenge and they’re shooting an anal scene—the show goes on. There’s too much money on the floor not to; a crew and other actors that have to be paid. It’s too expensive to forego a scene for just one person.

  I check the time. I have a few minutes before I need to be inside so I get back in the car and phone my agent. The call goes to voicemail. I groan as it plays but sound my usual chipper self when I leave my message. “Hey, it’s Devi. I’m at the LaRue job, and I can’t…” My voice trails off.

  Any way I explain this is going to sound terrible, especially left in a voicemail. Besides, I don’t know exactly what it is I want her to do for me. Talk me down? Remind me of my obligations? Tell me its okay to cancel? “Just call me. Please. As soon as possible.”

  I hang up and stare at my cell for several minutes—four of them, to be precise—willing it to ring.

  It doesn’t. Now, officially late for my call time, I start to panic. What if I can’t get aroused? What if I can? Is this cheating? Can it even be cheating when I’m not officially anything to Logan? Only a sort-of girlfriend? Can you even cheat on a porn star?

  I’m overwhelmed with doubts and anxiety and this isn’t like me at all. I’m level-headed, dammit. I’m calm, cool, collected. I’m a professional.

  So get your shit together and act like one!

  I take a deep breath.

  A professional would pull up her big-girl panties, go in and do the scene. It’s one scene. One hour of my life. I can imagine the guy is Logan. I can pretend it’s for him like the last scene was. Afterwards, I don’t have to book another het scene again until I figure out, well, everything.

  Right. Yes. I can do this.

  One more breath, and I’m out of my car. Three more, and I’ve made it to the door. A sign on the door says to come in quietly in case the camera’s running. I turn the handle and step in.

  And run smack into Raven.

  And it’s embarrassing because I run into her with such force that the reusable shopping bag I’m carrying full of wardrobe choices spills and my panties are strewn all over the entryway and on top of Raven’s Jimmy Choo ballet slipper-style shoes.

  Yes, that Raven. The Raven. The only Raven. Logan’s Raven.

  He’s never talked to me about her and I’m not sure what all went down with Raven and Logan, but everyone in the biz, as well as a lot of people outside of the biz, knew about their relationship. They were an “It” couple. For nearly three years, they made XBIZ’s as “Porn Pair We Ship” List and frequently graced the cover of Adult Video News together. They played on the same charity softball team. They had an Instagram account for Prior, their Yorkie. They held hands at the O’Toole Films press conference where he announced his commitment to respect women in the industry. When Logan won his last AVN award, he thanked her with an intimate wink that suggested they had a whole secret language between them.

  Then, one day, without any explanation, Logan’s name wasn’t on Prior’s social media accounts anymore, and Raven posted a vague Facebook status about having to deal with movers. The media immediately assumed they’d broken up. Neither party confirmed or denied it, but it was obvious to everyone that the love bubble had burst.

  I can’t say that I wasn’t happy about it. And curious. But I respected Logan’s privacy.

  Now, seeing her, I realize that by never asking him about her, I am just as unprepared to face her as I am for this scene. What’s happening between Logan and me is brand new and still undefined, but I feel certain that I’m moving toward girlfriend status. And yet, I know nothing about the ex.

  I should have asked.

  He should have told me.

  I ignore the tightening knot in my belly. “Sorry,” I say, bending down to scoop up my underwear, hoping she’ll walk past, and we can circumvent the whole ex-girlfriend encounter.

  But she says, “Devi,” and she’s not warm or surprised, and she’s not trying to get by me, and it almost feels like she’s been waiting for me.

  “Raven.” Still squatting, I glance past her and see the crew setting up to shoot in the dining room. The cameras are off, and the director, for now at least, doesn’t seem to be anxious to get going.

  I stuff my clothes back in the bag and stand up to give Raven the attention she seems to be waiting for. Except for her lipstick, which seems newly applied, her makeup is mussed, and her hair's a mess, and under the heavy scent of perfume, I catch the smell of sweat and sex. She’s just done a scene. And she still looks absolutely fuckable. I’m positive I don’t look the same after being on the set with Kendi.

  But whatever. “Were you shooting with Sinner’s today too?” I ask, trying to be polite.

  Raven nods with a tight smile, her red lips bright against her creamy pale skin. “I saw your name on the call schedule and thought I’d stick around and say hi. It’s been—what? Three years since we’ve done any work together?”

  I’m immediately suspicious of her motives because: (a) she’s the ex, and (b) what she said is not true. We’ve done a couple of movies together since then; we just haven’t been in the same scenes and have somehow managed to never bump into each other on set. Maybe she’s not the type to pay attention to details like that, but if that’s the case, why would she pay attention now?

  Unless it’s because of Logan.

  So I don’t exactly correct her. “Three years since Raven’s Real Playmates. Time really flies, doesn’t it?”

  “Wow.” She looks me over, her gaze over me as hungry in condescension as Logan’s was hungry in lust earlier. “You’re so grown up.”

  It’s been three years. Not thirty. But I nod and accept her statement like it’s a compliment. “Yep. Crazy how that happens.”

  “Logan tells me you’re working on a series together.”

  And there it is. There he is, making himself known, saying I’m the guy that will cause you girls to fail a Bechdel test.

  Well, now I know I was right—that her interest in me today is because of him.

  Also, I know that he’s talked to her. Recently. About me. And I have no idea what that means or how to feel about it except unsettled.

  I know I need time to process, so I’m careful to leave emotion out of my response. “Yeah, we are.”

  “Hmm.” She draws the mmm out, and it’s seductive and sexy and I understand why she’s such a star. Because Raven isn’t just beautiful—she’s bewitching. And glamorous. And sophisticated.

  And I’m the girl who carries her cotton underwear to the set in a bag from Ralph’s.

  “What’s the show about, anyway?” She’s fishing, which means Logan hasn’t gone into details with her, and there are several possible reasons for this. The ones in the front of my mind are the ones that bother me to think about.

  Regardless of his reasons, if Logan remained vague, I want to remain vague as well. “It’s still shaping, actually. Lots of improv. Probably won’t really know what it is until it’s done.”

  Behind her, the director catches my eye. “Excuse me, Raven, if you don’t mind, I need to—”

  She ignores my cue of dismissal. “If Tanner isn’t on set with you, you should be carrying an Epipen. Logan will never think to bring it himself.”

  I blink. “Epipen?”

  “For his allergy. You know how to use it, right?”

  “I…” I didn’t know Logan had any allergies. I didn’t k
now he needed an Epipen. I didn’t know that he wasn’t the type to address his own serious medical conditions.

  I’m sure that Raven can read the ignorance all over my face, but I try to remain composed. “I’ll make sure he has one on set,” I say. “Now it was really good seeing you again, but I’m late.”

  I brush past her but she stops me with her next words. “You don’t normally do het scenes, do you? Did you take this job because of Logan? If you’re hoping to make him jealous…”

  My nails dig into the Ralph’s bag as I hug it to my chest. Deep breaths, deep breaths.

  I turn back to her and tilt my chin up. “I took the job for me.”

  But I don’t sound very convincing because even I’m not sure anymore why I took the job, and there’s a good chance it was for Logan just like the reasons I don’t want to do the job now are for Logan.

  Raven lets out a laugh, then immediately covers her mouth with her hand, as if she hadn’t really meant to laugh out loud. “Oh. You’re really adorable, Devi.” She looks me over again and this time her gaze is sympathetic, the kind of look that says, You’re so young; you’re so naïve; you’ll learn when you’re older.

  I desperately want to know what it is she knows that I don’t, and I don’t want to know all at the same time. Because being young doesn’t necessarily mean I’m ignorant. But, also, because it doesn’t necessarily mean I’m not, and the worst part about my age and lack of life experience is that there’s no way to know which is true in this moment.

  I’m off-balance, and I’m sure Raven knows it.

  She takes a step toward me. “Word of advice?” She poses it like a question but doesn’t leave a space for me to respond. “Logan doesn’t care where you’re sleeping. In fact, he’s happier when he knows you’re fucking other people because then he figures he won’t have to deal with any shit about him fucking other people. And, take it from me—he’s always fucking other people.”
