The Snake

Milicent bowed to Salazar before she turned and left the room. Once she was gone, Salazar turned to Mark with a small smile on his face and waved toward the chair at the side.

"Please, have a seat. There are many things we must talk about, and I believe it will be best if you are comfortable before we get into it."

Mark sighed as he realized that this meeting might last longer than he hoped it would, but he just decided to go ahead and sit down. With how grave Milicent sounded yesterday, Mark just hoped that this would not be a waste of his time. Once Mark was seated, Salazar also sat down behind the desk and spoke up.
