“Put him on the phone.”

“Yes, ma’am.”

Faye Buckley keeps focusing on her reading, before the call has transferred into her office phone; she’s already memorized half of the paragraph.

“Senator.” Aaron Kornbluth’s voice coming out from the speaker.

“You’ve better gotten a very good reason to call me right now, commander, I’m not happy for the interruption.”

“We got Shane McCutcheon.” The man says, the loud and loud background noise exposes his position, they are on the way back to the border.

The woman’s eyebrows slightly rise up.

“Good.” Faye Buckley says she takes the wine glass on her table and shifts her chair around to face the huge French window; she looks out of the glasses as if she can look through the man on the phone. “Gather all the best police officers and detectives of California to escort our prisoner to cross the border, and leak the information to the media, I want this news spread out as big as possible.”

“Why? I thought we should act secretly, what if her criminal friends decide to come and rescue?”

“I believe they will.” Faye Buckley’s smile is never bigger.

“And? It will be a dirty fight, people might die, it won’t happen if…”

“Cut the crap, Aaron,” The senator says, she looks at the most astonishing night scene of the San Francisco. “If you want to keep our deal, just do what I said and bring back that bitch.”

Then she cut the line off.

Faye Buckley takes a sip at her delicious wine; she can’t help and make a moan at the amazing smell. The taste of the 300 dollars red wine is truly something amazing, and only this type of beverage can express how delighted she is now.

Turning her head to the other side of the room, the woman’s satisfied smile turns into a huge sly grin.

Her attention focus on the blackboard next to the huge window, despite the scene of San Francisco’s night is astonishing; it can never beat the great view on the blackboard.

On the board, there are different documents, the Cooper’s case, the Triad, and most of all, the details about Tina Kennard and Bette Porter, mostly everything about them, their background, their job, their private life…everything that has a record on them.
