    Trino stopped by the building two dayster. He was leaving for Colombia and wanted to say goodbye


    before leaving. His guys stayed in the lobby once again, which put everyone slightly on edge.


    “Miha, you look better each time I see you,” he said walking to give her a hug.


    “Maybe I’ll have the use of both arms the next time I see you,” she said.


    “You and Jefe muste to Colombia once this is all oves with. Have you ever been to Colombia?”


    She shook her head no. “Well, then, you muste. I’ll be your tour guide. It’s a beautiful country,


    Miha. You’ll love it there.”


    “I’m not moving there, Trino,” she said, tly. Heughed, shaking his head.


    “How’s Martin?” I asked.


    “He’s fine. He got a little roughed up when he escaped, but it’s nothing he can’t handle. He has no one


    to me but himself for it anyway, so I’m somewhat d he didn’t escape unharmed. We’re going to


    have a very long talk when I get back,” he said, thoughtfully.


    “Good. He was likelying from a good ce, but he also clearly doesn’t have the experience you do


    when ites to dealing with certain people,” I said. I somewhat expected Sephie to chime in, but she


    stayed quiet. I nced quickly at Andrei, to see his eyes somewhat zed over. While Sephie could


    pick up on things about people without anyone noticing, Andrei was still obvious about it. I knew there


    was more to be revealed about this situation, but if Sephie didn’t say anything before Trino left, I wasn’t


    going to either and Andrei decided to keep his mo uth sh ut as well.


    We talked for a few more minutes. Trino promised to send video of Massimo when he finally threw him


    off a cliff. I wanted him to keep me informed of what was going on with the Mexicans. It still worried me


    that they were working with Ricardo. More so for Trino’s safety than anything. They wanted Trino gone


    and they were bold with Ricardo behind them. It was a vtile situation. Even more than the situation


    with the other bosses and


    Once Trino left the penthouse, I looked at Andrei, then to Sephie. “What do you two know?” I asked.


    Andrei looked at me, surprised. “How do you know we know something?” he asked.


    “Much like Misha, you get a certain look on your face when you’re getting something. I can’t see it with


    Sephie, but given that she stayed quiet, it likely means there was something she didn’t want to say,” I


    said.


    Andreiughed. “I’m going to have to work on that,” he said.


    “Not me. I don’t care,” Misha said, grinning.


    Sephie looked at Andrei. “I want to know what you got first, Bubba.”


    “When Boss said that Martin was likelying from a good ce. That’s not right. There’s something


    deeper to why Martin went to the Mexicans,” Andrei said.


    “Something deeper like there’s going to be a split between those two in the future?” I asked.


    Andrei thought for a moment, then looked to Sephie like he was asking for help. “You don’t need my


    help, Bubba. You’re doing just fine on your own. You can ask for rity. I do all the time. When


    somethinges in, ask a silent question, and wait for the answer. It’lle,” she said.


    He inhaled deeply, thinking more on the situation. He started to say something, then stopped himself


    and thought for a moment longer. Finally, he said, “it depends on how Trino handles this when he gets


    back. Martin isn’t happy with him, but I can’t figure out why. That’s why he went to the Mexicans. It has


    the potential to be bad, but it’s going to be bad for Martin, I think.”

    I looked to Sephie, who was smiling at Andrei. “See, you’re getting more details. It’ll get easier each


    time,” she said. She then looked at me, saying,


    “it’s not dissimr to what’s going on here. Martin is drunk on thoughts of grandeur, if you will. He’s


    getting it in his head that he can run things better than Trino can. The situation with the Mexicans


    probably scared him, but depending on how Tring handles this, he’ll either remember his ce on his


    own or he’ll be so angry with Trino that he’ll go back to the Mexicans out of spite. Or he’ll try to split


    from Trino and create his own empire, Only one of those options is going to result in him living much


    longer.”


    I sighed. I appreciated her keeping her mo uth sh ut on this one. I didn’t necessarily want to get in the


    middle of this, I would support Trino, whatever happened, but he needed to handle this or it would


    never really be resolved.


    “It’s always the people who seek power the most fervently who can’t handle it,” Stephen said.


    “Because they’re the ones looking for fulfillment outside of themselves. Something is missing from their


    soul and instead of seeking the answer to what’s missing and why, they seek a band-aid to cover up


    their pain. People willmit unspeakable horrors trying to escape having to face their own shadow,”


    Sephie said. I walked to her, pulling her to me. I could feel her body starting to shake slightly as she


    leaned against me. Instead of continuing on with this conversation, she changed the subject by asking


    me to help her take her arm out of her sling. “I’m tired of my arm being strapped down all day long,” she


    said.


    “Your shoulder doesn’t hurt you as much now?” Andrei asked.


    She shook her head no. “It’s still sore, but I think it’s sore from not moving at this point.”


    “That’s likely. It’s a good sign if you’re feeling like you want to move it, but you should still go slow. Your


    shoulder waspletely out of socket, which meant there was a lot of soft tissue damage. You can


    easily re-tear something,” he said.


    “Nobody wants that. I just don’t want to be strapped down for like 20 minutes,” she said.


    “As soon as you can go longer periods without it in the sling, we can do some physical therapy to help


    you strengthen your shoulder again. You don’t have much longer and the castes off too,” Andrei


    said. It was evident on his face that he was looking forward to being able to get her back in the gym to


    train once more. He took his job as her trainer very seriously. He was quite good at it. I knew she would


    be back in shape quickly.


    “Just as long as her lung is healed. Her shoulder and arm are healing faster than her lung,” I said.


    Andrei looked to Sephie and smiled at her, like he knew something. She nodded her head, then pulled


    my arm around her, leaning back against me once more.
