A horrific cry startled Segreti from his slumber, and he scrambled to his feet, a sharp pain piercing his heart, as if someone had driven a knife through it. The earth trembled beneath his feet, and he took a quick step back, a gasp escaping him at the sight of his sweet Ezra.

“Ezra? Love?” Segreti inched closer and carefully placed a hand on his arm, then hissed when the touch burned his skin. What the bloody hell happened? Another wave of pain, fear, and nausea rolled through Segreti. Terror washed over him, and he shifted into his bear form, releasing a ferocious roar to alert the Soldati king and his council. Shifting back into his human form, he was relieved when he spotted Khalon and the others speeding toward him in their tiger forms.

“Khalon!”

Khalon arrived with the prince and their council in tow, along with several Soldati warriors. They quickly shifted into human form.

“What the hell is happening?” Riley asked.

Ezra stood by the tree where Segreti had been asleep only moments ago. He was exceptionally still, his eyes completely white and his arms at his sides, fingers splayed. His face was ashen, but it was his expression of terror that would haunt Segreti for the rest of his immortal life. Whatever was happening, Segreti could feel it, or at least partially, which made no sense. They weren’t mated.

Khalon turned to Segreti. “What happened prior to this?”

“Ezra sat with his back to the tree. I lay on the grass, my head on his lap, dozing as he read to me. Next thing I know, I hear him gasp and open my eyes to find the Soldati Eye hovering over me, glowing. I heard a voice in my head say ‘sleep’ before everything went dark. Then I was startled awake by Ezra’s scream and a sharp pain to my heart. I quickly got up, and he stood. I tried to get his attention, but it’s as if he can’t hear me, and when I tried to touch him, it burned.”

Khalon cursed under his breath. “Did he touch you? Before any of this happened, did he touch you?”

Segreti frowned. “Before I fell asleep, I felt his palm on my brow.”

“Blasted hell.”

“What is it?” Segreti asked, concerned.

“He’s having a vision, but not of the future, of the past, something the Eye needed him to see. I fear it did not take Ezra’s possible reaction into consideration. Ezra is a healer, as you know, but there are times when he’s not in control of his gifts.”

“What do you mean?”

“When Ezra touched you, his soul found a source of great pain, and it triggered a vision. The power of the Eye flows through him. Its knowledge is infinite, and as it’s connected to Ezra’s soul—a soul whose purpose is to heal—it’s drawn to great suffering. It’s taken his mind to the source of your pain. Unfortunately, his gifts can’t distinguish between pain of the body and pain of the mind. Ezra can’t heal wounds to the mind, only to the body.
