Chapter One Hundred Sixty-Five

Sephie

Once inside, with the door closed, I said to all of them, “I know what happened to Trino’s nephew, but

I’m scared to tell him. I don’t want to bring even more attention to me, but it could also keep Trino in

debt to Adrik, which could be quite useful, so I don’t know what to do.”

I noticed Adrik raised an eyebrow when I mentioned keeping Trino in debt to him, but he waited for the

guys to think it over before speaking. It was one of the many things I admired about him. He always

took their thoughts, opinions, and suggestions into consideration before making decisions. Especially if

those decisions affected all of us. He was, after all, the King of the Underworld. He didn’t need to take

anyone’s opinion into consideration, but it was clear that he trusted the guys and sought out their

opinions regularly.

Viktor asked, “what are your thoughts on Trino after spending time with him?”

“I think he’s trustworthy. I don’t think he’s holding anything back from us, except maybe the extent of his

hatred for Massimo. He’s trying to be respectful of Adrik, so it’s understandable. From what I’ve seen of

Martin, he’s also trustworthy, but he’s slightly more difficult to gauge because he rarely talks. They both

respect Adrik and Armando, although not as much. I’m not sure if it’s because they know Armando

doesn’t have as much power or if they just don’t know him as well. I didn’t get the feeling it was

anything bad. It felt like they were awkward because they didn’t know each other well. There’s clearly

no love lost between Trino and the other bosses, however,” I said, smiling.

They were all silent for a few more minutes. I could see Misha running through scenarios in his head,

checking out each possibility. I think the others were waiting for him to speak first, honestly.

Ivan spoke up. “you’re positive you know what happened to him?”

“Well, as positive as I can be. I overheard Massimo and Dario talking after one of the meetings.

Massimo told Dario that he had ‘that nuisance Mateo taken care of and dumped in his usual spot. I’d

never heard the name Mateo before, so it piqued my interest. I found a reason to stay in the room. It

was one of the only times I saw Dario get angry with Massimo. He wasn’t only angry though, he was

scared. I just don’t know who he was scared of. I didn’t know about Trino or Adrik at the time.”

Ivan thought for a few moments. “This might prove to be useful. It might be a way to turn Dario and

Massimo against each other. Create more chaos,” he said, looking to Adrik.

Misha had finished running through possibilities in his head. “I don’t see a problem with you telling

Trino what you know. If you feel like we can trust him, I think it’s a good move. I agree with you and

Ivan that it might be useful to keep him in debt to us, so to speak, and can possibly create more chaos.”

Adrik looked to Viktor, who nodded, then Andrei and Stephen, who also nodded their heads. He pulled

me to him, holding me close. “You ultimately get the final say, solnishko. If you’re too worried about

telling him what you know, then we’ll keep it between us right now”

for a few moments, just the two of us.

As we were getting dressed, he said, “you look like you’re doing a better job of getting control of your

anger. Misha looked more tired than you did by the end this morning.”

I smiled. “I had to pull a few punches because I misjudged how slow he was getting. I’ll never hear the

end of it if I wreck his pretty face.”

Adrik laughed. “No. No, you won’t. But I think watching you with Misha this morning somehow gained

me brownie points with. Trino. He was quite impressed.” He walked to me, pulling me into his arms

again. “I mean, we all know you’re impressive, but I have to admit to secretly loving it when I see other

people realize it for the first time.

I hid my face in his shoulder. I still struggled with him telling me I was impressive in any way. He

chuckled and kissed the top of my head. “Come, we should go find Trino. You can tell him the story

about how you ‘verbally annihilated,’ as Viktor put it, Vanessa in my office.” He saw the shock on my

face and added, “She’s with Massimo. Martin said one of his guys called to complain that she was

stinking up the place this morning while we were on the beach.”

I laughed loudly. “If Trino takes care of her too, do you think the perfume maker that makes that

particularly hellish scent will go out of business after losing their best customer? I mean, we could be

doing the entire world a favor here.”
