228 Frienemy

Constantine knew he would get a visit soon after the incident he arranged and he knew the visit wouldn't be pleasant at first. So he was surprised when Skender came to him calm and collected. He didn't like this. What did it mean? 

Skender teleported right into his parlor and made himself comfortable. "Some shades attacked my mate." He spoke calmly. 

It was harder to fake when he was calm. "You know I have nothing to win from making shades attack your mate. I said would keep them away." 

"I know. Then who could it be?" Skender wondered. 

Well, this was not how he thought things would go. He would have to be careful not to be too obvious. 

"I wouldn't know." 

"Then you need to find out. We made a bargain." He reminded, his eyes still silvery from fury. 

"You are not upholding your part, so why should I uphold mine?" Constantine asked.
