“It is a god thing. It’s going to be difficult for him once he learns how he’s able to do it. If his gift works the way I think it will, he needs to have help to make it happen as quickly as we will need it to happen,” I said.
“The same way I used your help and Misha uses you? Why would he have a joblem with that?” he asked.
“Not the same way. I can’t help him with what he’s going to do. He needs eve more of a power boost than I can give him, if you will. He needs to have angelic help. Ivan was starting to put the pieces together in his head. “His wife,” he said.
I smiled at Ivan. “That’s exactly what I said, but it’s not her. She’s already started her next life.” I paused to see if Ivan would figure it out, but it was Stephen who did. “His child,” Stephen said.
“And I thought your gift was heavy,” Ivan said looking at Stephen.
“No sh it, man. Mine was a breeze next to this,” he said.
“So how does that work? Did his child die on purpose to make this happen? lan asked..
“I don’t think that’s necessarily the case. Apparently, a soul can clear a tremendous amount of karma by signing up to die either tragically or before they’re born. His unborn child is now helping him as a way of thanking him for helping to clear the karma,” I said. I looked to Ivan and Adrik. “I have, no idea how you two are going to tell him about this. Or if he’ll even believe you when you do.”
“You’re not going to tell him, Seph?” Stephen asked.
“He knows I’m the one that’s helping everyone figure out their gifts. He’s been avoiding me and he’s careful about his thoughts around me, as well. Much like you, he does not appreciate me in his head,” I said. “I also think he’s the most freaked out about my eyes. He’s going to sh it himself once he sees it’s not just me anymore.”
We were all quiet for a few moments, trying to figure out a way to help Viktor. We all came up empty for the moment.
“I’ve got nothing right now,” Ivan said. He looked at his watch. “They should be back soon, though, so we should probably change the subject anyway.”
“Oh, they’re here. They’ll be walking in right about…now,” I said as we all heard the penthouse door open.
“Okay, you’re going to have to tell me how you do that now, princess,” Ivan said.
“How she does what?” Misha asked as I walked to him. I would never get over feeling relieved when they came back safely. I hugged his neck before moving to Andrei and Viktor.
“She said you guys were back, right as you walked into the penthouse. Only she didn’t hear you first,” Ivan said.

“You have been doing that a lot lately, spider monkey. How do you do it? Like can you hear us coming?” Andrei asked.
“Do you get notifications that you have thoughts to read like normal people get email notifications?” Misha asked, laughing.
“No, it’s not like that. I’m not in any of your heads either, for the record. I keeji telling you that I don’t go looking without permission. It’s more of a feeling You all feel different to me. You always have, so it’s easy for me to tell you apart, especially now that I’m hyper-sensitive to each of you,” I said.
“But you knew that Boss’s meeting was irritated the other day when it was just Viktor downstairs and you’re not as connected to him as the rest of us yet,” Andrei said.
“He’s not as connected as the rest of you, but that doesn’t mean I can’t still feel him. Viktor is probably the most even of all of us, so when he’s amused about something, it comes through strongly. He was amused that they was irritated, so it was easy to feel,” I said.
“Nice save, princess,” Ivan thought. He flashed me a quick grin when no one was looking.
“Shut up. I’m not lying. I’ve always been able to feel you guys. It’s just next el now.”
“What about when Andrei was looking in your head? How did you know that was happening?” Misha asked.
“She can feel it. Just like I can feel it when she does it to me,” Andrei said.
“I didn’t feel anything when she looked in my head. Am 1 brain-damaged? That’s a distinct possibility now that I think about it,” Misha said, trying to sound serious.
“No. Well, maybe. I’m guessing it’s unique to us. No one else seems to notice when we do it,” Andrei said.
“How did it go with Chen?” Adrik asked Viktor, thankfully changing the subject for now.
