Allie pulled her little Miata into the parking space at the building that served as Temptation Studios headquarters, smiling to herself as she saw some of the bigger cars already parked in the lot. Guess porn pays better then I thought, she giggled to herself. As she got out of the car, and smoothed out her dress, she opened up her purse and double checked she had her "card", nearly clutching it like it was a Golden Ticket from that movie about the Chocolate Factory. When she thought about it, it kinda was.. because without it, she wasn't getting in the door.<br/><br/>The card meant that she had been tested for communicable diseases (sexual and otherwise) and was clean. All performers had to get them before each and every shoot, as the industry had already had too many scandals when someone brought something home from a trip, and inadvertently played Typhoid Mary in spreading it to all their partners. Most places required a clean card within the last two weeks. Temptation was more hard line on that, you had to have a clean card taken within seventy two hours of your shoot or you were sent home, and you would have to pay a penalty fee for not being ready to perform as contracted.<br/><br/>She smoothed out the dress one more time, and entered the door Marked "Temptation Studios".<br/><br/>Allie didn't know what to expect. Some sex and drug infused Bacchanalia, perhaps. But it was just like a normal office. There was some glamor shots of some of Temptation's contract girls (who had first rights to their services, and promoted the brand otherwise). There was several of the top stars of Temptation Studios, Angelia.. who was still one of the hottest stars in the business.<br/><br/>She must have been gawking for a few seconds, as she heard a knowing chuckle from the woman at the receptionist's desk.<br/><br/>"You must be the new girl they brought in for the test shoots and possible scene today", she said with a friendly grin..<br/><br/>Allie's reverie was broken, and she giggled "Yup.. that's me.. How'd you guess?"<br/><br/>The woman giggled "Usually all new talent come in and have the same reaction as you. Well, usually. There are others who seem almost disappointed that there aren't random porn stars fucking on every flat surface. It's like it breaks the vision they had of the industry."<br/><br/>The two women shared a laugh, and Allie found herself warming to this small, greyish haired woman.<br/><br/>"Well, yes, I'm Sall.. I mean.. Allie Ann" she said, wincing as she already forgot to refer to herself as Allie..<br/><br/>"Yes, I know dearie.. and I can call you Sally or Allie, whatever you're comfortable with.. you can call me Melissa, I'm the secretary and den mother to this bunch of licentious lookers and humpalicious honeys." she said, and Allie found herself giggling helplessly at the phrases being spoken by this grey haired grand dame.<br/><br/>Allie finally broached the subject, as she handed over her test card for verification. "Um, I hate to sound completely unprepared, but my agent sent me into this blind, so I don't know what I'm supposed to be doing today.." she blushed as she realized what a complete dunce she sounded like, but the woman only smiled.. "Sometimes they do that hun, they do it to see who has initiative and who just goes along with the flow. Don't worry, once you have some scenes under your belt they stop testing you.. well at least all the time."<br/><br/>Allie nodded softly.. she KNEW she should have called her agent and told them to supply more information.. lesson learned for next time, she vowed.<br/><br/>Melissa smiled, having passed on this bit of information to the new person.. she had met some real rough characters in her job, but usually the nice ones stuck, and so far Sally/Allie Ann looked like she would stick.<br/><br/>"Why don't I call Ms St Marie and let her know you are here. Why don't you hit the makeup room and touch yourself up, before doing your solo scene?"<br/><br/>At Allie's questioning glance, Melissa sighed and shook her head.. the poor child, her agent hadn't told her ANYTHING? She was going to have to have words with the Boss about World Talents.. this was not the first time they had send someone over completely blind. They were lucky that the young woman in front of her hadn't decided not to show up because of the lack of information that World Talents had given her."<br/><br/>"Don't worry, it's something that all the first timers do here before they actually shoot a scene.. They do a quick ten minute solo scene, just stripping and teasing the camera.. they use that material for filler on the PPV networks, but don't worry sweetie, they don't use it unless they like you, and you sign the release to do so."<br/><br/>Allie nodded, and went to go freshen up and touch up her makeup. Melissa took advantage of the break and buzzed the boss, speaking in a lower tone of voice just in case Allie would be coming back for more questions.<br/><br/><strong>"Ma'am? Allie's here for the 2:00 shoot.. yes.. she's early.. her card's fine, from yesterday.. look remember the last time World Talents sent over that girl for the Dark Temptations scene and she thought she was going through a regular scene, and World Talents said they simply had forgotten to tell her it was a bondage scene? They paid the fee to cover that poor girl's shock.. but they've actually gotten worse. The girl's nice enough and sweet.. I think she'll do fine.. but they sent her over completely blind. No mention of who, what or where.. if I didn't know better, I would say World Talents is trying to deliberately screw us over.. No, I trust you to handle it, but figured I'd just bring it to your attention.."</strong><br/><br/>Melissa smiled as she hung up the phone. When she had taken this job, she had figured the worst of people, but there were real sweet and honest people as well as scumbags. She had appointed herself den mother for Temptation Studios, and none of HER GIRLS were going to be mistreated. Even the new ones like Allie..<br/><br/><br/><br/>
