It was true they were both members of the Illuminati, but Fermin never signed up to be a lapdog.

Back then, he'd teamed up with them for mutual gain. But the Illuminati wanted more than a partnership. They wanted the Eaton family on a leash.

When Fermin didn't bite, Michael added, "I saw Miss Eaton crying her eyes out. We go way back. Should I cheer her..."

Before he could finish, Fermin's knife flashed to his throat, nicking him. Blood trickled, but it was just a scratch.

"Stay away from her," Fermin growled. "Touch her, and I'll end you."

"I'm just being nice here," Michael chuckled. "But if you're not cool with it, I'll drop it. But those terms? Think twice. We only help our own. If you keep playing your own game, that heart goes elsewhere. And trust me, you won't find another match."

Fermin hated to admit it, but Michael was speaking the truth. Without the Illuminati's help, he couldn't find a match for Bert's heart.

He lowered the knife. "Fine, it's a deal. Get your people on it. Save him."

"Wise choice. Happy cooperation," Michael smiled.
