As the call connected, the holographic screen on Vanguard Rebecca's desk flickered to life, revealing a stunning woman lounging casually in an ornate chair. Her chestnut-brown hair cascaded in effortless waves, and her velvet brown eyes gleamed with mirth.
The playful smirk on her lips said everything before she even opened her mouth.
"Sky Whale, how did the selection go? I heard a demon crashed your little party."
Rebecca's eyebrow twitched.
As her jaw clenched and her teeth ground like grinding gears.
"I told you," she growled through gritted teeth, "Stop calling me that."
Raven blinked, putting on the most exaggerated innocent face imaginable.
"Which one? The Sky… or the Whale?"
SLAM!
Rebecca's palm came down on the desk like a war hammer, shaking her terminal.
"STOP IT, RAVEN!"
