Michael’s POV

The heavy double doors had creaked open, and candlelight spilled across the marbled floor.

For a moment, I had only stood at the threshold, unwilling to step further, unwilling to play into Fernando’s carefully staged drama. But the air of the grand dining hall had dragged me forward whether I wanted it or not.

When the door had eventually opened fully, I saw them instantly.

Fernando, towering, sharp and predatory even when he smiled, sat at the head of the table, the master
Osarumwense Osakue

🔥 Michael has just bowed his head to Fernando’s command—but will his silence last? How much longer can he endure Fernando’s control before he breaks? 👉 Stay tuned for the next chapter, where obedience and rebellion clash.

  • Dark Possession: Bound To The Mafia Don   Old Wounds

    Michael's POVThe moment I saw Theo and Roberto standing at the entrance to the kitchen, my heart nearly stopped.Not because they had startled me, but because of the timing.A few seconds earlier and they would have seen Fernando's hands on me, my hands on Fernando and the kiss.I silently cursed myself.Fernando, meanwhile, looked far too calm. That alone irritated me.I immediately took a step away from him then another, creating distance, trying to look normal.Unfortunately, I had spent years working alongside trained investigators, and one thing I had learned was that people always looked suspicious when they were trying not to look suspicious.Theo's eyes moved between Fernando and me, far too carefully and my stomach tightened.Please don't ask.Please don't ask."What are you two doing?"Of course he asked.His voice sounded casual and I immediately knew he was suspicious.Fernando opened his mouth but I instantly cut him off."Nothing" I replied.Fernando glanced at me."You

  • Dark Possession: Bound To The Mafia Don   A Warning in the Dark

    Theo's POVThe moment I heard Marlo's voice, the room suddenly felt colder. Across from me, Roberto had gone completely still.I tightened my grip on the phone."What do you want?" I asked.Marlo laughed again."Straight to business.""I don't have time for games" I said.Even through the phone I could hear the smugness in his voice. The man always sounded like he believed he was the smartest person in every room.Unfortunately, he was often dangerous enough to make people tolerate it."I heard you've had a rough few days," Marlo continued."That's funny.""I thought so."The silence stretched briefly then his voice became colder, more serious."Tell me, Theo. How does it feel being on my list?"I frowned."What list?""My revenge list" he replied. Roberto immediately straightened. I could practically feel the tension rising inside the room.I leaned back against the headboard."Should I be scared?""Probably" he said.I laughed, mostly because I refused to let him hear my shock."I'

  • Dark Possession: Bound To The Mafia Don   Stolen Moments

    Fernando's POVFor the first time since arriving at Michael's house, I felt like fate was finally giving me a break.Roberto had gone upstairs to check on Theo.The annoying rival who seemed determined to appear every time Michael and I shared even a single meaningful moment was temporarily out of sight.And Michael was standing right in front of me, alone.Well, as alone as we could be in a house filled with complicated relationships and unfinished history.The sunlights cast a warm glow across the room. Outside, the warm sky pressed against the windows, quiet and cool.Michael stood by the counter with his arms folded which usually wasn't a good sign.Whenever he folded his arms like that, it meant he was preparing to disagree with me, or lecture me.Or both."You need to stop glaring at me," he said.I raised an eyebrow."I'm not glaring" I replied. "You absolutely are.""I prefer the word observing" I corrected. Michael rolled his eyes.God, I had missed this. Not the arguing. W

  • Dark Possession: Bound To The Mafia Don   Watchmen

    Theo's POVThe moment Michael left the room, I opened my eyes.The door clicked shut behind him, silence followed and for several seconds, I remained exactly where I was, staring at the ceiling.If anyone had walked in right now, they would have assumed I was asleep.That was exactly what I wanted.Slowly, carefully, I pushed myself upright then pain immediately shot through my side."Son of a—"I stopped myself.The doctors had been right. I had no business leaving the hospital. Every muscle in my body felt like it had been run over by a truck but that wasn't important.What was important was Fernando.I looked toward the bedroom door and my jaw tightened.I didn't trust him, not even a little, especially after everything that had happened.The threats, the lies, the suspicious timing of his arrival and the fact that I had ended up in surgery after he conveniently decided I was a problem.No. I wasn't taking chances.I reached into the small bag Roberto had brought for me and Inside

  • Dark Possession: Bound To The Mafia Don   The Final Say

    Michael’s POVIt took much longer than I expected to get Theo to fall asleep, partly because he was stubborn and mostly because he clearly didn't want to sleep.Every time his eyes started closing, he would somehow find a reason to continue talking.At first it had been about the hospital then Kim, Henry, Ashley and Nick then somehow he had started talking about the terrible quality of hospital food again.I was beginning to suspect he was deliberately trying to stay awake."Theo, you need to sleep" I said."I'm trying" he replied. "No, you're talking" I corrected. "I'm multitasking" he argued. I rolled my eyes then pinched the bridge of my nose as Theo smiled weakly."I like when you worry about me" he said."That's not helping your case" I replied. Eventually exhaustion won and his voice became slower. His words started slurring together and finally his eyes closed completely.I sat beside the bed for another minute just to make sure the rise and fall of his chest became steady.

  • Dark Possession: Bound To The Mafia Don   Unfinished Business

    Fernando’s POVI hated Theo.At this point, I wasn't even trying to pretend otherwise. The man had an incredible talent for appearing at exactly the wrong moment.I stood alone in Michael's kitchen, staring at the refrigerator while holding a bottle of water I hadn't actually taken a drink from yet.The house was too quiet. The kind of quiet that allowed thoughts to become dangerous and my thoughts kept replaying the same scene.Michael against the wall, his eyes on mine, the way he had looked at me, the way he had pulled me closer and the way he had kissed me back.My grip tightened around the water bottle.Damn it. Even now, remembering it made my heart quicken. I could still taste his saliva in my mouth and I wanted more.For weeks I had been trying to convince Michael that what existed between us wasn't dead. That all those years hadn't erased everything.Tonight had proven I wasn't imagining it. Michael still felt something and I knew it.I had felt it, seen it and for a brief m

  • Dark Possession: Bound To The Mafia Don   Defiant at the Gate

    Ashley’s POV The iron gates loomed before me and two guards stood beside them, the same expressionless faces I had seen every single time I came here. “I told you already,” I snapped, my voice rising against the cool night air. “I’m not leaving until you let me in.” “Miss Ashley,” one of the guar

    Fernando’s POVThe mansion greeted me with the same familiar hush that always followed my return. I spotted Marlo near the base of the staircase, going over somethings with two of the staff. “Where’s Dominique?” I asked, my voice low but sharp.He dismissed the staff with a nod before turning to

  • Dark Possession: Bound To The Mafia Don   Promises

    Michael’s POV I never realized how much joy could fit into one empty apartment. Ashley was in the center of it all, laughing under her breath as though she couldn’t believe this space was hers. Her cheeks were flushed, her energy back, her body whole again. After everything she’d gone through, s

  • Dark Possession: Bound To The Mafia Don   The Invisible Wall

    Michael’s POV The hallway still lingered in my chest like an aftertaste I couldn’t spit out. I could still remember Dominique’s smug little smirk. The sharp smell of Fernando’s cologne on his skin, like proof seared into my nostrils. I hadn’t realized I was gripping my own hands so hard until
