Maurier clicked his tongue and smirked, an amused glint in his eyes. “Thrilling. I like it.”
Cesar fell silent. Fine!
Shaking his head in exasperation, Cesar handed over the modified venomous creature to Maurice and left without another word.
Maurice carefully tucked away his newfound treasure, his eyes narrowing as an ominous smile played on his lips, Whatever he was thinking about, it was bound to be dangerous.
