Warlock Ch 162. Get In And Act Well

Damian froze, his senses sharpening as a familiar presence made itself known. From the darkness at his feet, a shadow stretched upward, elongating into a sleek, humanoid figure. The inky form solidified. It was one of Cassius' shadow servants.

"Well, isn't this a surprise," Damian muttered under his breath, crossing his arms as he regarded the figure with a wary glare. "Let me guess—he sent you to babysit me?"

The shadow tilted its head, its featureless face somehow managing to convey a sense of disdain. Its voice echoed in Damian's mind, smooth and cold like Cassius himself. "Babysit? Hardly. I'm here to deliver a message."

Damian rolled his eyes. "Of course you are. Let me guess, Cassius wants me to stay out of trouble?"

The shadow ignored his sarcasm, stepping closer. "Master is aware you're here, as always. And he wants you to get in."
