Agent Velasquez cheered in his mind as the video call finally patched through, though he kept his face stony and imposing behind his black sunglasses. Behind him was only a black wall.

The picture flickered into clarity, showing a middle-aged woman frowning at him severely. The nondescript decor around her looked like something out of a normal, modern office building. Velasquez was disappointed. He’d hoped the witches would have addressed him from a decaying castle.

“Who are you?” she demanded in a French accent. “How were you able to contact us?”

“Aw,” Velasquez shot back, “it’s cute that you thought I couldn’t contact you. Well, I did. We have our ways. And even if you don’t know who I am, individually, I think you know who I’m speaking on behalf of.”

The witch’s frown deepened. “Yes. What do you want?”

“There’s something you ladies need to be aware of,” the agent stated. “Let me speak to whoever is in charge. The higher their rank, the better. It’s extremely important.”

The woman looked aside, presumably seeking feedback from another person who was out of visual range, then visibly snorted at the camera. “No. We have nothing to discuss with you.”

“Hold on,” Velasquez barked, his voice loud and sharp, and he raised a fist beside his face. “It’s about the growing shifter problem. You know that the Agency is responsible for keeping all supernatural beings in line in America. And lately, the biggest problem is the goddamn werewolves.”

The witch seemed to consider his words. Again she glanced to her right, and an unspoken message passed between her and whoever else was present. Over a minute went by, and Velasquez assumed that an entire conversation must have been occurring via psychic methods.

At last, the scowling woman turned her eyes back toward him. “You have fought us just as fiercely as the lycanthropes have, and suddenly, you are our friends? Hah!”

Velasquez pushed his glasses up his nose with one finger and sighed with what he hoped was exactly the right mixture of tiredness, exasperation, and cynical opportunism. “Yeah, sorry. I was too low-ranking to have any effect on the decision-making process until recently. After Townsend got injured, I took over his position until he gets back—if he ever does. Looks pretty bad for him. And now that I do have authority, I’m telling you that I intend to drop Townsend’s personal vendetta against the Order and focus on fulfilling our Agency’s primary mission. Keeping the peace.”

Once more, the silent conference between two or more witches. Then the one in front of the camera said, “We are listening. But do not assume we have forgotten your recent actions.”

“Right, right,” he drawled, trying to convey the sense that he’d been merely doing his job and was tired of it. “The Agency’s foremost concern is preventing conflicts between paranormal entities from affecting the outside world of normal humans. That has become impossible, and a major part of that is the growing power and militancy of werewolves, see? Bailey and her closest followers can no longer be controlled, and we want something done about that.
