Warlock Ch 339. Weak Testimony
Cassius whistled. "So, they wanted her testimony to look weak?"
The shadow bowed slightly. "It would have made things easier to discredit."
Damian exhaled, running a hand through his hair. "And now?"
Another shadow spoke up. "The political factions are split. Some senators are supporting her to save face—but others?" A pause. "They see her as a problem."
Cassius's grin sharpened. "Meaning?"
The shadow's voice was steady. "There will likely be another attempt."
Damian's jaw tightened.
Cassius set his cup down, exhaling. "Well, well." He turned to Damian, eyes gleaming. "Looks like we're not done playing defense."
Damian clicked his tongue. "Fucking great."
Cassius chuckled. "Come now, Kaelan—"
Damian shot him a sharp glare.
Cassius grinned. "Oops. I mean, Damian."
The bastard did that on purpose.
Damian scowled but said nothing. Instead, he turned back to the shadows.
"Any movement from Ralvek?"
Another silence followed.
