As I walked to the door, I quickly updated the guys on my conversation. Ivan grinned as he got up and went to Adrik’s bathroom to take his contacts out. I could feel the excitement from all of them. They were looking forward to the shock they were about to deliver.

When I returned to the couch, Adrik stood up, pulling me with him to the bathroom. We walked in as Ivan walked out. It took just a minute to take our contacts out and then we sat down with everyone once again. Since Misha’s eyes had only changed once so far, he hadn’t gotten contacts yet.

Andrei quietly leaned over and explained what was happening to Viktor, in Russian, so Chris, who was sitting close by, wouldn’t understand.

As Adrik pulled me back into his lap, he said, “it started with Sephie and her ability to know things she shouldn’t necessarily know. Not just the conversations in Italian. She knew details about the other bosses that most people would’ve missed. Over time, that ability grew. She started reading my mind very early on in our relationship, as well as all of the guys. It seemed like the stronger the connection got with her, the more she was able to do. Then Misha’s ability to see the outcome of a plan morphed into being able to see you under attack the night the Mexicans came for you. One by one, we’ve each discovered a gift, if you will, that we have that nobody else does. It sounds somewhat crazy, but you’ve seen the result of it several * times now.”

“It’s why I’m sitting here right now, Jefe,” Trino said.

“It is, but it’s much more than just that,” Adrik said. He squeezed me just a little tighter, glancing at Ivan. “Martin and Ricardo have both made deals to get further ahead in this lifetime.”

“What kind of deal?” Trino asked.

“Deals that have eternal consequences,” I said. I knew my eyes had switched to black without needing to see anyone else’s. I saw the surprise on Trino’s face, followed quickly by the sheer terror as he looked at Adrik and Ivari’s black eves. I glanced over at Misha. His eyes now changed with ours as well.

“Misha, you’re going to need contacts now, too. Yours are already changing with ours,”I told him.
