a-lioness-in-winter:Imagine being a small time actress and Mrs. Mott hiring you to run plays with Dandy to entertain him, and the two of you getting a little caught up. (Not Smut, just…close to it)You honestly didn’t know what to expect from this job, but the old lady offered your so much money, you didn’t dare say no. You didn’t know how to react when your asked her what exactly she was supposed to do and the mother responded, “Anything Dandy wants.” before leaving you to sit in a giant toy room that looked like it belonged to the world’s most spoiled child. You had been instructed to bring with you any scripts that you had in your home, which you did in a small canvas bag. “Mother!” You heard the voice of what was certainly not a child approaching the doors before bursting through with an annoyed look on his face. He was handsome, there was no denying it, but the pout that seemed to be a permanent fixture on his face tarnished his good looks. He dressed in a rather summer suit, despite the fact that it was Autumn, and his dark hair was carefully combed down with hair grease. When he first caught a glance of you, his eyes widened, then narrowed. “Who are you?”You opened your mouth to speak, but were interrupted by Mrs. Mott who came rushing in on her kitten heels, her wide skirt swaying back and forth as she moved. “Dandy! This is Miss. Y/N!”Dandy looked at you expectantly and you smiled a little, “You can call me Y/F/N” “She looks boring, What does she want?” Dandy spoke to his mother, but looked at you, as if you were too stupid to explain yourself.“She’s a real live actress Dandy!” Mrs. Mott informed him, and Dandy’s ears perked up a little. “A Professional! I brought her here to do some little plays with you!”You blinked at being called a “professional”, sure you were nearly guaranteed the lead in most plays you auditioned for, but only within the county limits. When you realized Mrs. Mott had stopped speaking for you, you grabbed your canvas bag. “I brought some scripts” You offered uneasily, “You mother tells me you have an interest in show business.”Dandy took the bag and peered inside with a child like curiosity as his mother nodded. “I’ll leave the two of you alone then, maybe tonight you can put on a little play for Dora and I after dinner.” She closed the door behind her, leaving you alone with Dandy, who looked you up and down. “H-Have you ever been on stage Dandy?” You broke the ice tentatively, eyes widening when Dandy pulled a paper script out of your bag and flung the rest to the ground. “When I was little.” He stood up straight, trying to look professional. “I caught the bug from a young age, but Mother would never let me continue. She said acting wasn’t a respectable profession.” He scoffed and flipped through the pages of the script. “ I know this one, The Devils.” He smiled. “I’ve heard of this one. It’s about Demons and Priests. And a bunch of nuns acting a mess” You shrugged. “My Manager sent that one to me, they’re trying to put on a production in Baton Rouge.”“Who would you be?”“The leading lady, but I think it’s a little gruesome to be honest with you.” You picked up the bag and thought about convincing him to choose a new play. “There’s a torture scene in it, isn’t there?” Dandy eyed you and your squirmed under his traveling gaze. “Yeah, I think so. Lot’s of crazy stuff in there.” You swallowed. “Hey, I have an Idea. How about I leave the script here with you. You’ll get more use out of it then I will. I’ve only read it once.”Dandy’s eyes lit up in an instant. “Really? You mean it?” He spoke with child like eagerness that for a moment alleviated your worry. “Yeah, But let’s try a different script today. Like…. this one!” You pulled a new script from your bag and presented it to him. “The Little Foxes. It’s a wonderful drama” “I have an Idea” Dandy moved to his own book case, “I wrote this one myself.” He pulled a thin leaflet of pages from the shelf and waved it at her. “I know it by heart, but I’ll let you read over It a few times before we run it.”You took the script carefully in your hands and flipped to the first page. It was…grizzly to say the least. Not particularly well written or structured.But Dandy watched your face for a reaction so you nodded and scanned the lines over and over. “Are you ready?” Dandy stood up fully and looked in the mirror to brush his hair back, looking 100% a diva trying to get into character. “Yeah, I think I’ve got it, Where do you want to…whaaat are you doing?” You trailed off as you looked up and found Dandy taking off his shirt. He side eyed you and smirked. “Didn’t you read the stage directions? They call for us to be half dressed.”“Oh” You blinked. “You really get into character huh?”“Of course.” He chuckled and motioned towards you. “Come one then.”“I’m sorry?”“Your clothes” He rolled his eyes as if it were obviousYour face went red as a beet, this wasn’t part of the deal. But then again, the amount Mrs. Mott offered would set you up comfortably for a year, so you complied slowly and stripped down to your under garments and Dandy nodded eagerly. “Perfect! Now, read me in.” He clapped his hands and smiled, hyping himself up. “Alright uh. Oh. Mighty Maximus! Undefeatable Gladiator! I come to you as tribute for your recent victory. Cast aside your sword and claim your well won prize.” The dialogue was stiff and stilted, but Dandy threw himself into the scene head on. “I can never cast aside my sword, nor do I have any interest in a whore when I can have any noble woman I choose.” He growled with such intensity that you were almost impressed, and his passion drove you forward. “What Noble woman would have a man so stained in blood?”Despite his dedication to the role, you hadn’t expected Dandy to actually grab you with such force. His large hands gripped into your upper arm and jerked you forward towards him. “Mind your tongue.” He hissed and shook you with such force you didn’t need to pretend to be shocked. “Or I’ll cut it out of your skull.” You swallowed hard and Dandy went on, shifting his grip from your arm to your shoulder, dangerously close to your throat. “Of perhaps that’s what you want.” He smirked. “A lady may not want a killer like me, but a whore like you wouldn’t mind if I returned from the arena with another man’s blood on my hands, I bet you’d even like it.” His hand had traveled to your throat and applied slightly pressure, making your heart race. For a moment you forgot that this was an act, and the cold in his eyes clashing with the heat of his hand made you tremble. “Hey, It’s your line.” You blinked and found Dandy frowning down at you. “I..What?”“Are you sure you’re a professional?” Dandy sneered and you shook yourself, stepping away from him. “Sorry. I just, uh, got caught up in the moment.” You looked away, a blush on your cheeks growing brighter. “But you’re uh…you’re very talented. Honestly.” Dandy beamed proudly at your praise and cleared his throat. “Well, let’s run it again from the top.” He came up from behind you and leaned over your shoulder as you re read over the script, you could feel his body heat radiating off of his bare chest. “Don’t get too flustered this time, There’s a love scene right after this, and I want you completely focused.” -- source link
