Cedric crept out of the penthouse at 3 AM, moving as quietly as he could. His bare feet barely made a sound on the cold marble floor. He left his phone on the nightstand on purpose. If falcone woke up and checked it, at least he wouldn’t be tracked right away.

The elevator ride down felt like forever. His heart wouldn’t stop racing. Marcus’s text kept flashing in his mind, partner shot, spine, ICU. All because of that fake Red Hook location falcone had forced him to send.

Outside, he flagged d

  • The Don's Dirty Obsession    The Hunt for Natalia

    The Norwegian wilderness swallowed them whole, white and endless, the kind of cold that bit straight through skin. Cedric led the climb, boots sinking into fresh snow, every step a fight against the wind. The bunker was buried under a glacier, access only through a narrow ice tunnel that narrowed like a throat closing. They had found the coordinates weeks earlier, hidden in a satellite photo that looked like nothing until you knew what to look for.Cedric reached the entrance first, gun steady, breath fogging the air. Gianni was right behind, Anna covering the rear with precise, silent shots that dropped two guards before they could yell. The perimeter fell in seconds, bodies crumpling in the snow. They moved fast through the corridors, boots echoing off metal walls, until they reached the central chamber.Natalia sat at a long table, monitors glowing around her, showing live feeds of the foundation’s security cameras. She looked calm, almost pleased, when they burst in.“You found me

  • The Don's Dirty Obsession    The Traitor Within

    The foundation ran smoother than it ever had. Quiet halls, except for the sound of kids learning how to be kids again. Lily read to a room full of them every morning, same three chairs pulled up front, same argument over who got to sit closest. Mia had paint under her nails for good now, not just during class. The clones smiled more. Slept better. Cedric told himself that counted for something.Then the small things started.The side garden door, unlocked on a Tuesday when he knew for a fact he'd checked it himself the night before. A camera by the east fence, tilted maybe two degrees off where it should've been, enough that nobody would notice unless they'd memorized the angle like Cedric had. A folder gone from his desk. Not misplaced. Gone, like it had never sat there at all.He didn't say anything to Gianni yet. He wanted to be wrong.He wasn't wrong. He spent two nights going through the access logs by hand, cross-checking names against shift times, and by the second night he had

  • The Don's Dirty Obsession    The New Family

    The foundation was crowded now, walls echoing with small voices and the soft pad of bare feet on stone. Dozens of children, each one a genetic copy of Cedric, same dark hair, same sharp jaw, same quiet eyes, but none of them him. They had their own fears, their own nightmares, their own dreams that had nothing to do with the tanks or the ice or the woman who had built them. They looked like him, talked like him, but they were not him. They were something new.Lily took charge of the younger ones, sitting them in the library every morning, teaching them how to read and how to hope and how to ask for a hug without checking the door first. Mia moved through the art studio like a quiet storm, brushes flying, colors spilling across paper while she guided the older kids to paint their fears until they looked small enough to burn. Gianni taught them to fight, not to kill, but to defend, fists and feet and the kind of quiet strength that came from knowing someone had your back. Anna sat with

  • The Don's Dirty Obsession    The Army of Shadows

    The Arctic lab was buried under a frozen ocean, a fortress of steel and ice that no one could reach without permission. Anna’s intelligence had pinned it down to a single coordinate weeks earlier, and tonight they moved in like ghosts, Cedric leading the charge, Gianni and Anna right at his side, guns silent, hearts louder.Inside, the corridors stretched forever, lined with doors that opened into a nightmare. Row after row of incubation tanks, each one glowing with cold blue light. Inside every tank was a child, Cedric’s face, Cedric’s features, Cedric’s blood, but younger, smaller, eyes already empty.There were dozens of them. Some were barely out of the tank, still soft and fragile. Others were fully grown, tall and strong, already dressed in black tactical gear, faces blank as if the world had never touched them.Cedric stopped in the center of the room, staring at them, the sight hitting him like a punch to the gut. “They’re me. They’re all me.”Gianni’s hand clamped on his shou

  • The Don's Dirty Obsession    The Decoy

    The decommissioned embassy in Geneva sat dark and empty under a grey sky. Once grand halls, now stripped bare of furniture. Wind cut through the broken windows and made the whole place sound like it was breathing. International territory. No country claimed it, no cameras watched it. Perfect for a trap.Cedric had known that the second he read her message. He came anyway.He walked through the front doors alone, his footsteps swallowed by the size of the entry hall. A chandelier hung crooked above him, half its crystals gone, swaying with a draft that had no business being indoors. His pulse stayed even. It always did now. That was the part that scared him.Natalia waited in the main room, calm and perfect, flanked by two silent guards. Her coat hung open, hair falling in soft waves, eyes tracking him like he was something she'd already decided how to use. A single table sat between them, out of place in the ruin around it. She'd probably had it carried in just for this."You came," s

  • The Don's Dirty Obsession    The New Threat

    Gianni let go and crossed to the window without another word, checking the treeline the way he always did, like the glass itself might give something away. Cedric folded the note back into its envelope carefully, the way you'd handle something that could still burn you."We're done running," he said. "Every time we move, she gets closer. She's not chasing us. She's herding us somewhere."Lily came down the stairs slow, a wool blanket dragging off one shoulder, Mia a step behind her looking like she hadn't slept in days. "What did it say?"Cedric didn't answer fast enough. Gianni tried to step in. "Nothing you need tonight.""Don't." Lily's voice wavered but didn't break. "I've spent my whole life being protected from things. Look where that got me. Tell me."He handed her the envelope instead of explaining. She found the lock of hair first, and her breath went sideways, like something had grabbed hold of her ribs."She was in the house." Barely a whisper. "Close enough to touch me and

    “Jesus Christ, what the fuck happened to your face?”Cedric kept his hood up and his head down, ignoring the pitying looks and questions from late-night commuters on the subway who caught sight of his busted face. He could see the full extent of the damage reflected in the scratched train window,

    “Shut the hell up, don’t take your mouth off my cock unless I say so.”Cedric huffed with annoyance, dragging his teeth along the underside of the guy’s cock so it would hurt, as payback for talking to him like he was some cheap fuck. Well, he was one, but still…“Cut that out. What kind of pornsta

    The new safe house was smaller and quieter, tucked away in a sleepy suburban neighborhood where neighbors minded their own business and the streets were lined with identical lawns. It still smelled like fresh paint and tension. Gianni’s most trusted people moved through the rooms like shadows, feed
