"Wait, who is Rona Thorne?" MALORY gasped softly as Lana glanced over at me in surprise, causing me to quirk up my eyebrows as I looked between them, awkwardly. With my hair up in a high bun, I was dressed in a black long sleeve turtleneck tucked into a pair of high waisted jeans with rips at the knees, my belt around my waist, and combat boots.

I was in Malory's office, standing in front of her bar alongside Lana. The two of us were called in here to get our new assignment, which didn't require us to leave the office. Instead, we were gonna be shadowed for research for an upcoming role, apparently by someone named Rona Thorne which, the problem was, I had no idea who the hell she was, and, I guess, I was gonna be chastised for since, apparently, they do.

"Lila, Rona Thorne is one of Hollywood's biggest actresses." Lana informed me as I met her gaze alone. "You never seen River's Rage?"

"No." I answered.

"Consumed?" Lana questioned with quirked up eyebrows.

"No." I repeated, causing Malory to scoff.

"The Cost of Ivory?" Lana furrowed her eyebrows.

"No." I repeated, again.

"Oh for the.." Malory trailed off, causing me to glance over at her as she sat behind her desk, pinching the bridge of her nose before looking up at me with narrowed eyes. "Do you live under a rock?" I rolled my eyes.

Suddenly, I heard screams come from outside of Malory's closed door, causing me to glance over at it with slight widened eyes. "Well, I guess that means she's here." I looked over as Malory pressed the intercom button on her phone. "Quit shrieking and send her in!" Malory ordered.

The screaming stopped, and after a brief moment, Malory's office door opened, causing me to glance back over to it to see a young, attractive woman waltz in, who must've been this Rona Thorne character. Rona had a similar hairstyle like Lana's except Rona's hair was a little thicker, blonde, and wasn't in a ponytail. Rona had brown eyes with soft yellow eyeshadow, light pink lipstick, silver dangle earrings, wore a long sleeve light pink blouse, a black short pencil skirt with heels. She even held a brown Chihuahua in her arm that had a blue collar around his neck.

"Hello, hello!" Rona exclaimed softly in happiness, causing me to blink.

"Ah, hello dear." Malory greeted politely, causing me to slowly look over at her as she smiled at Rona. "Come in, please, have a seat." Malory offered, causing me to quirk up my eyebrows as I watched Rona make her way over to sit down in one of the chairs in front of Malory's desk.

"I don't know which one sounds more faker." I admitted softly, causing Lana to chuckle lightly as I felt her elbow me playfully in the side.

"Ms. Thorne," Malory began.

"Oh, please." Rona crossed one leg over the other as she looked at Malory with a smile. "Call me Rona." Malory chuckled softly.

"Rona," Malory began, again. "I would like you to meet agents-"

"Oh, wait, wait, wait!" Rona exclaimed softly to cut her off, looking between Lana and I. "I got this!" Rona pointed at me. "Lila Callahan," Rona darted her eyes over at Lana with the same pointed finger. "Lana Kane?" Lana and I both exchanged looks with each other. "Am I right?"

"You'll be correct." Malory responded, causing Rona to gasp softly.

"Oh my God." Lana and I looked back over at Rona. "This is uh-mazing!" Rona exclaimed in an annoying voice, causing me to sigh silently.

"I'm out." I stated as I turned to head towards Malory's door.

"Lila!" Malory exclaimed softly, causing me to stop. "You get back here." I rolled my eyes lightly as I turned back around to face Malory as she had stood up from her chair. "My apologizes, Rona, this one is usually well behaved." Malory narrowed her eyes at me, causing me to sigh softly.
