Michael's POV

Henry's tiny arms clung to me like I was the last thing holding his world together. His sobs shook his entire body, and each one pierced straight through my chest like needles.

“Why did he say that?” he choked out between hiccupping cries. “Why did dad say that? Did I do something wrong?”

I held him tighter, cradling the back of his head, trying to keep my voice steady for his sake.

“No, Henry. No, baby boy. You didn’t do anything wrong. None of this is your fault.”

  • Dark Possession: Bound To The Mafia Don   Behind His Door

    Fernando’s POVI had faced assassins, I had survived betrayals,I had buried enemies and outsmarted rivals who thought they were smarter than me.None of those things frustrated me as much as my own son refusing to speak to me.I stood outside Henry's bedroom door and stared at the dark wood. The silence on the other side felt heavier than any gun pointed at my head.A few minutes ago, the entire house had finally calmed down. Ashley had retreated to one of the rooms with Nick.Theo was upstairs with Kim, recovering and probably thinking of new ways to annoy me.Michael was downstairs preparing lunch and Henry had locked himself inside his room, away from me.I knocked gently but i got no answer.I sighed."Henry."I knocked again but still nothing.My jaw tightened.Most people would have been terrified to ignore me, but not Henry. My son had inherited Michael's stubbornness.I leaned my head against the door. I could hear faint movement inside. He was definitely listening, he simply

  • Dark Possession: Bound To The Mafia Don   Drunk on Power

    Marlo's POVI sat in a large leather chair in what used to be the owner's living room. The room smelled faintly of expensive liquor and old money but neither belonged to me.I swirled the amber liquid inside my glass and stared at the fire burning inside the fireplace.Outside, armed guards patrolled the property while Inside, my men occupied every corner.Nobody came in without my permission, nobody left without my permission.The owner of the house had learned that lesson too late.He was a wealthy businessman, married with three children. They were a nice little family until he refused to pay me what he owed and now he was dead.His wife and children were being held elsewhere.I took another drink and the alcohol burned pleasantly down my throat. Across from me sat Anabelle. She looked annoyed.Actually, annoyed was too soft a word. She looked miserable. Mortis sat nearby, quiet as always, thinking.Unlike Anabelle, he wasn't openly complaining. That didn't mean he was happy. It s

  • Dark Possession: Bound To The Mafia Don   An Uneasy Truce

    Fernando's POVIf there was one person in the world who had consistently interfered with my relationship with Michael, it was Ashley.I had known her long enough to understand exactly how her mind worked.She was fiercely loyal, protective to a fault, stubborn, opinionated and unfortunately for me, she had never trusted me.Not when Michael and I were together.As I followed Michael into one of the guest rooms, I already knew this conversation wasn't going to be pleasant.Ashley entered behind us and immediately crossed her arms.Michael closed the door and let out a tired sigh.Michael rubbed his forehead."Can we please talk like adults?"Ashley immediately pointed at me."Tell him that" she said.Michael sighed even louder."See? This is exactly what I'm talking about."Neither Ashley nor I spoke.Michael looked between us then shook his head."I am tired. We have Marlo threatening everybody, we have Theo recovering, Ashley and Nick just got discharged and somehow all of us are und

  • Dark Possession: Bound To The Mafia Don   Too Many Opinions

    Michael's POVThe moment Ashley saw Fernando standing in my bedroom, I knew every ounce of peace in the house had officially disappeared.Not that there had been much peace to begin with but whatever little remained was completely gone now.Ashley stood in the doorway with her arms crossed, Fernando stood near the foot of my bed, Theo sat on the mattress looking entirely too pleased with himself and I was already afraid. The silence stretched then Ashley broke it."What is he doing here?" She asked.I immediately rubbed my forehead."Ashley—"She pointed directly at Fernando."What is HE doing here?" She repeated. Fernando looked completely unbothered which only made Ashley angrier. Nick stepped beside her, his expression wasn't quite as hostile as Ashley's but it wasn't friendly either.Fernando folded his arms."I assume you're referring to me" he said.Ashley stared at him."Who else would I be referring to?""I don't know. There are several people in this room" he said.Fernando

  • Dark Possession: Bound To The Mafia Don   Caught in the Headlights

    Fernando's POVI had stared down countless guns in my life. Some had belonged to enemies, some had belonged to former allies and a few had even belonged to family.But there was something uniquely irritating about having Theo point a gun at me while sitting in Michael's bed.It felt disrespectful somehow.My eyes remained locked on the weapon in his hand but Theo didn't look away and neither did I. It seems this man has grown balls big enough if he thought he stood a chance of shooting me, right in the house of my husband. The room had become deathly quiet. The kind of silence that comes before something terrible happens, or something stupid.With Theo, it was usually both."You should lower that," I said calmly.Theo laughed without humor."Why?""Because if you shoot me, Michael will be furious" I said, a smirk slowly playing on my lips."I'll survive" he said but I didn't believe him for one second.I smirked wider."No, you won't."His jaw tightened but the gun remained pointed

  • Dark Possession: Bound To The Mafia Don   The Last People I Wanted Upstairs

    Michael's POVThe moment I heard the car pull into the driveway, every muscle in my body tensed and my grip tightened around the kitchen knife.The house suddenly felt too quiet then Marlo's warning from earlier replayed in my head.I hated how much space he was taking up in my thoughts.I slowly moved toward the front door, the knife remained firmly in my hand.My heartbeat echoed loudly in my ears.Upstairs, Fernando had taken Theo to my room, or rather, Theo had stubbornly insisted on my room.I could still hear faint voices from the second floor. They were probably arguing again.Those two could start a fight inside an empty room.The sound of a car door closing snapped my attention back outside then another followed by several footsteps.My pulse immediately accelerated.I positioned myself beside the front entrance, out of sight, waiting.The handle moved slowly and the door began opening.I raised the knife instinctively, preparing myself.The door swung open and I nearly gave

  • Dark Possession: Bound To The Mafia Don   The Unseen Bond

    Fernando’s POV The tires of my car squealed softly as we pulled up in front of Kafé Verse. The café’s exterior looked deceptively quaint with its flower boxes and chalkboard sign welcoming patrons with today’s specials. I knew better. Any place could hide a snake. Any smiling face could mask a
