After greeting her and recapping what she'd already said to him, Marcus challenged Belinda by questioning the accuracy of her claim, even admitting that he'd spoken to her Station Manager or, at the very least, one of his Aides.
"Indeed, he is using the footage you got last night later today with Kathy Edwards, the early evening anchor?"
Belinda had already turned her face away from Marcus, murmuring, "Asshole."
He continued, "I'm sure you know her well."
"Bitch," was her response this time. She looked back to Marcus, explaining, "I had my suspicions."
"You're not getting off to a good start by lying to me, Miss. Carmichael--"
"I wasn't lying--" she began her defense.
Marcus continued, though, "...however, all is not lost. I have a proposition for you."
Belinda was beginning to panic; she thought she'd come to the end of the road before she'd even turned over her engine. She'd been ready to rip her clothes off and bend over the cafe counter at this point. Thankfully, Marcus continued, "It's really quite simple..."
He explained what he wanted and what he could offer. It was far more than Belinda could have hoped for. She became physically excited, a chill running up her spine and gooseflesh exploding across her arms and down her legs.
"What about Kather Edwards and my asshole boss?" she inquired.
"The Governor will ... speak, to your station manager and make you the channel's primary reporter on our activities," Marcus said with total confidence. "You won't get the anchor desk, not yet, but this will help you get your reporter credentials."
Belinda couldn't suppress the smile that spread her lips. "I'll take anything you're willing to give me, Detective Cole."
"But be warned," he continued, letting her know what would happen if she betrayed him and his team. "So, what do you say, Miss. Carmichael? Interested?"
"Absolutely," she said without hesitation. She offered out her hand, hoping it was appropriate. "I'd like some clarifications, however ... if you don't mind?"
She opened the little notebook on the table to look at the questions she'd already considered. "First, can I use your name? Are you out, I mean? I mean, I know who you are and that you're involved ... but ... does anyone else?"
Marcus answered, and Belinda continued, "I know you don't want your people identified ... but ... at some point, can I interview them ... one or two or even all of them ... hidden identities ... altered voices if you think that's necessary?"
"Can I imbed on one of your operations? I'd love to be there ... to film it as it unfolds. I can pixel out identities for later broadcast ... but I'd prefer to broadcast it live, maybe with faces masked...?"
