CHAPTER ELEVEN

Coraset was awakened by a soft knock from the door. She opened her eyes and sat up not remembering where she was. The last moments she recalled was when she was being chased. She was running down the stairs in her building trying to get away, to find safety. Coraset felt around the sofa for the gun, but then she remembered she gave it up to the assault team. The sound of knocking caught her attention, and she slowly went over to the door.

Malie smiled upon seeing Coraset and said, “I figured you might be hungry.” She stepped into the room, and two other gentlemen appeared behind her carrying covered trays.

The men walked in hurried steps towards the table on the left side, and they began dressing the table. Prime Rib, caramel asparagus, and red skin potatoes were the main dish. The appetizer was a salad wedge with bacon pieces, pecans, half sliced cherry tomatoes, raspberry vinaigrette, crumples of blue cheese and blue cheese dressing. Crystalized glasses held freshly made sweet tea with tiny leaves of mint on the rim. Once they were finished, they moved out of the room quickly.

She could not remember a time when she had a real meal and asked, “Where did you get the steak?”

Malie smiled as an answer and sat down. Coraset joined her at the table.

“Since the Senator is in a videoconference, I thought we could have dinner together. Talk about a few things.” Malie cut pieces of lettuce from her salad wedge.

“Who are you anyway?” Coraset wasn’t sure about eating, and she didn’t trust Malie.

After chewing her food and wiping her mouth, Malie answered, “I work for the Senator. I handle most of his affairs.”

“Luck you.”

Coraset watched Malie as she delicately cut her steak. She was starving, and she decided to start eating herself.

Malie said with confidence, “I took care of the assault team that was after you.”

“Really,” Coraset said in disbelief. “And how did you do that?”

“I pulled the video feed from your building. I identified all of the assailants and added information into their files about their plans to assassinate the Chancellor’s oldest son.”

“Did you find out who they were working for?”

“A member of Senator Stewart Cobb’s staff,” Malie answered.

Coraset thought for a moment. Cobb, she repeated in her mind. She asked, “Is he related to Warden Devon Cobb.”

“His son,” Malie revealed.

“The warden has been after me for a while. After I was released from prison, he had me taken to the middle of the desert. There were inmates out there waiting for me.”

“The Senator wondered what happened to you after your release. He sent Brochudo out to Baker, but when he didn’t return with you, he thought the worse. How did you get out of there?”

“Luck,” Coraset answered. She didn’t want to rehash the events that occurred in the desert.

Malie didn’t pursue the answer further and said, “Well, you don’t have to worry about it anymore. The warden, his son, and that entire team are being charged for
