As for Fidel and his crew of hangers-on? Pale faces all around. They stared at Stefan as if he’d just landed from another planet.
They hadn’t seen a thing. One moment he was on the couch. Next moment-blink-he was back on the couch. And a dozen thugs

If they didn’t know better, they’d think he’d hired actors.

Gavin was counting on his fingers, jaw hanging open. “Seven, eight seconds-that’s all it took? You dropped all of them in eight seconds?”

Colby smirked. “Patience. Let him handle this first.”
“Yes, yes-handle them first.”

Fidel nodded eagerly, then turned to Stefan. “If you had any sense, you’d come knee! now. Get right with us. Maybe when the branch leader gets here, he’ll let you die quickly.”
Fidel’s crew cackled, delighted.
