Chapter eleven

The answer to the question of people being ready for that kind of terrorism or not wasn’t just no, but fuck no. As in, people were saying that on television. It was a bit annoying to Bey, since it meant that there were camera crews in Richard’s office within the hour, since no one else was going to know about that kind of thing. The very funny thing for her was that Eve ended up talking to a radio show host at noon, and it wasn’t even the man that had suggested he’d be willing, grudgingly no doubt, to chat with her to make Rich happy.

It wasn’t even done on purpose, she’d just answered the phone, since it was Jonas’ day off, and the man didn’t really have other staff for some reason.

“Representative Swerlin’s office. This is Eve Benson, how may I help you today?”

There was a pause, and then a deep voice that wasn’t at all familiar came at her. “Eve Benson? The girl in the box?”

“I got out a whole day ago, and came to visit my new buddy first thing. I’m super cool that way. Richard is on the other phone, may I take a message for you?”

The voice sucked in air audibly, even for a Human listening to it, and then went on, as if he thought that entrapping her into doing his show was actually going to work out for him.

“You’re on the air live right now, with the Jeff Smears Program. I don’t suppose you’d like to comment on this latest act of terror? We were just discussing how things like this never happened until the appearance of supernatural creatures a few months ago. Like you, I believe? You’re a Vampire are you not?” The guy sounded slimy when he said it. Not like a used car salesman or someone just trying to get anal on the first date either. Like it was a real thing with him. A part of his life that was engrained all the way down into the depths of his being.

That, or she was being judgmental because he was an asshole, putting her on the spot like that.

So she forced herself to snort, and then cleared her throat primly.

“WTF?” She said each letter clearly, then chuckled a bit as Rich looked over at her from inside his office, his face worried. Then he probably had the idea that she was some kind of non-politically savvy newb that was about to start screaming profanities over the device in her hand. It was tempting, but she held the worst of it in. For the moment.

Bey just watched her, clearly not getting the idea of what she was spelling out.

“You can’t think that’s true, can you? This kind of thing has always gone on. Not every time something happens, or even close to it, but now we can actually step in and stop some innocent guy from being sent to prison for killing his family if he didn’t do it. The world isn’t more dangerous now, it’s a lot less so.
