Value of a Witch

Montana lowered his eyes and thought for a while. In the end, he only declined. "I don't want to go. It's enough that Morgan is already returned to them. Moreover, I don't want my state to be spread outside SCC's elite squad. Can you do that for me? And don't forget to return the ring…"

"Okay, I'll tell them that you're not available… and also make up a story about how you found them." Theresa agreed readily as if she knew he wouldn't go. Besides, he had also told her to keep his state a secret: no one outside SCC should know that Noah Rocco was not a witch anymore.

The call ended… as well as his meeting with Gerald. Montana chose not to just walk out without giving pleasantries. Gerald would be Montana's boss in the future so he shouldn't be so arrogant, but it didn't mean that he would be bowing his head down so low as well. Soon, the two had left the room.
