The Don’s Dangerous Addiction
“Take them off yourself, or I will do it for you.”
Ten sessions. Two hundred thousand dollars. Her brother’s life for her body.
Dr. Avery St. Clair signed a contract in blood. To save her family, she has to fix the mind of Obsidian City’s most feared monster, Dominic Kessler. He’s a Mafia Don rotting from the inside out. A bullet gave him C-PTSD and a touch so sensitive he can’t stand being touched. Avery is the only antidote who can calm him down. So he locked her in his villa.
But Dominic is playing a game he’s already lost.
He doesn’t know Avery is the woman from seven years ago. The stranger who saved him on that dark gambling ship and disappeared before sunrise.
He doesn’t know the scar on his wrist is burned into her memory.
And most of all, he doesn’t know the autistic little girl hiding in her clinic is his own daughter.
While Avery hides the truth behind her professional mask, their little girl feels his every nightmare. Every flashback. Every crack in his monster mask.
When the secrets finally come out, his empire will fall. He’ll lose his sight. His throne. The only woman who ever made him feel human.
To win her back, he’ll have to destroy the monster he became. And help her burn down the man who murdered her parents.
She won’t make it easy.
This is not a love story. It’s a monster learning to beg.

Chapter: Chapter 245 A Love That Shakes the City (The Grand Finale)The morning light of Obsidian City spilled over every spire of Kessler Estate. The city's full security and seas of flowers intertwined, laying a wedding red carpet that stretched for miles. Thousands of blooms lined the streets, their colors vivid against the grey stone of the ancient city. The air was thick with the scent of roses and the hum of excited whispers from the crowds gathered along the route. The distant sound of church bells echoed across the rooftops, calling the city to witness a love that would be remembered for generations. Children perched on their parents' shoulders, straining for a better view, while the elderly wiped tears of joy from their eyes.Inside the master bedroom, Avery stood before the floor-length mirror in her dream wedding gown, adorned with rare black diamonds and pure white silk. The train spread out like a river of stars, making her already striking beauty even more radiant and regal. The gown had been fitted perfectly, every seam a testa

Chapter: Chapter 244 A Ceremony of GloryDawn broke over Obsidian City. The first rays of light pierced through the morning mist, and the entire city stirred to life under a heavy, charged silence. The streets were lined with onlookers, the air thick with anticipation. Security personnel stood at every corner, their postures rigid, their eyes scanning the crowds for any sign of trouble. The city had not seen such a gathering in decades, and every soul present understood the weight of the moment.In the VIP lounge, Avery stood before the floor-to-ceiling window, carefully adjusting the collar of her mother's formal gown. The fabric was rich and elegant, a deep shade of sapphire that brought warmth to her mother's pale features. She smoothed the fabric with gentle hands, making sure every fold was perfect. Her mother's eyes, still clouded from the trauma of years past, darted nervously at the grand spectacle outside the window. Her fingers curled tightly around the edge of Avery's sleeve, seeking comfort in the famili

Chapter: Chapter 243 A Love That Moves the CityOn the runway of Obsidian City's private airport, a grand lineup of top-tier vehicles had already formed an impressive formation. The cars gleamed under the morning light, their polished surfaces reflecting the clear sky above. Security personnel stood at attention, their postures rigid and professional, a testament to the importance of the occasion. The atmosphere was one of solemn anticipation, as if the city itself was holding its breath.When the black convoy slowly rolled through the ornate iron gates of Kessler Estate, the entire estate had been transformed. The main building's most comfortable, sun-drenched master suite had been prepared. Top medical teams and the head housekeeper led dozens of servants in a welcoming formation. Their expressions were filled with genuine respect, a far cry from the cold formality of the past.Looking at the grand, sprawling architecture and the sea of flowers outside the window, Avery led her mother and brother by the hand into

Chapter: Chapter 242 Final ReckoningNight deepened. The narrow alleys of the old district were damp and cold. A chill wind swirled fallen leaves across the weathered brick walls. The air carried the faint scent of wet stone and distant rain. The streetlights cast weak, yellow pools of light on the uneven pavement. Somewhere in the distance, a dog barked once, then fell silent. The silence that followed felt heavier than any sound.Standing on the balcony, Avery wore Dominic's coat. It still carried the faint scent of sandalwood. The fabric was warm around her shoulders, a quiet comfort against the night chill. Her cool eyes looked down through the night, past the black armored vehicles parked below, to the desperate figures gathered in the alley. Her fingers rested lightly on the railing. The metal was cold beneath her touch. She remembered a time when she had stood in shadows like these, afraid and alone. Now she stood in the light, with the most powerful man in the city at her side.Kneeling on the dam

Chapter: Chapter 241 Is Sunset City Truly Calm?Outside the VIP express lane of Sunset City, the afternoon sun poured down without restraint, warm and golden.Leaning against Dominic's broad, steady arm, Avery looped her hand through his. Her cool eyes swept over the crowd gathered at the end of the lane. The old nobles of Sunset City had once kicked her when she was down. Now they were dressed in their finest formal wear, craning their necks with ingratiating, false smiles. They were desperate to catch a glimpse of her. Their faces were painted with forced warmth, their hands clasped in front of them as if greeting a long-lost friend rather than someone they had once scorned. The desperation in their eyes was almost palpable."Dr. Clair! Oh, it has been so long! We heard you were coming back..." One of the leading old nobles pushed forward, trying to use their "old acquaintance" status to get close. His voice was oily, dripping with practiced charm.Before he could take two steps, a dozen black-suited elite

Chapter: Chapter 240 A New Chapter of ThunderThe dark night lay heavy over the ancient, somber ancestral hall of the Devereux family.Leaning against the carved antique wooden chair, Avery stood in her crisp white suit, arms crossed. As a witness to this final purge, she could clearly feel the suffocating tension in the air. It was the absolute pressure that preceded the arrival of Obsidian City's ruler. It was like the stillness before a storm. The elders' faces were drawn tight. Their eyes darted nervously, each one trying to read the room and find an escape that no longer existed.In the center of the hall, several of the most senior branch elders of the Devereux family huddled together. Their faces were dark with defiance. Their voices rose in a chorus of protest, each one trying to sound bolder than the last."Dominic! Victor is gone, but that doesn't mean you can do whatever you want! The family trust funds and core shares are still in our hands. Without our signatures, you have no legitimate claim!

Chapter: Chapter 73 Our Things3:40 p.m. Darcy watched Hyde sprint past her office door for the third time.The first time, he had been carrying a thick stack of border patrol records.The second time, he had a supplementary resolution from the Elders' Council tucked under his arm.The third time, he was holding the shift rotation sheet for a meeting Asher was supposed to chair himself at 4:30.Darcy finally stopped typing and looked up. "Is everyone leaving early today?"Hyde skidded to a halt, clutching the papers against his chest, his expression caught somewhere between exasperated and amused. "Not everyone."

Chapter: Chapter 72 Make RoomThe risk control office was quiet that afternoon.Sunlight slanted across the stacks of case files. Voices drifted in from the hallway, and a young patrol wolf knocked, carrying the shift schedule. He needed Darcy's sign-off on a few rotation details.He stood half a step from her desk, respectful and focused, leaning in to point at the map.Then, through the half-open window, a wave of fir scent rolled in.It wasn't the restrained warmth of the morning. This was heavier, almost territorial, pressing into the room and drowning out the smell of paper and ink.The young wolf was mid-sentence when the fine hairs on the back of hi

Chapter: Chapter 71 You Smell Like MeWhen Darcy woke up, her first thought was heat.It came from the body pressed against her back. Asher's arm was draped across her waist, his palm still resting loosely against her side, his breath falling in slow, steady rhythms against the back of her neck. Last night's new mark still felt warm, while a faint soreness lingered through her shoulders, neck, and waist.Darcy stared at the ceiling for a few seconds. Then the scattered fragments of last night started surfacing without warning. She remembered saying "Mark me." Everything after that became less suitable for early morning recollection.She closed her eyes. The more she tried not to think about it, the clearer the details became. Asher's barely contained gold bleeding through his eyes. The fir scent so thick it was almost suffocating. And the way he had leaned in, carrying an intensity that was nothing like the controlled Alpha she saw during the day.She even remembered, at some point, getting a

Chapter: Chapter 70 The Place I Choose9:00 a.m.The small conference room on the top floor of the main building was full. Pack elders filled both sides of the long table, their faces calm but watchful. There was none of yesterday's arguing, none of the sharp confrontation. Morning light fell through the blinds across the carpet, and a few older wolves flipped through last night's supply records. The only sound was the soft rustle of paper.Darcy pulled out a chair near the door and sat, sliding a thick stack of documents toward the center of the table."Last night's medical shipment is accounted for here, along with the west side exchange follow up." Darcy pushed the file forward. "The leak through Chloe has been contained. It won't affect routine patrols."Tap.Evelyn pressed a hand flat on the file. She didn't open it. She pushed it aside half an inch."Not today." Evelyn took off her glasses and rubbed the bridge of her nose. "Yesterday's accounts were settled last night when

Chapter: Chapter 69 Count Us In"The Pack nursery's fever medication will only last through tonight."The meeting room door opened and Hyde walked straight in.Darcy snapped back to attention and looked up at him. She had been spacing out, her hand still resting on the edge of the table.Hyde walked to the table and placed a freshly printed manifest in front of her. "The North is holding two supply trucks at the Kingston border. Officially, it's a routine inspection of unmarked cargo. Unofficially, they're holding our entire winter medical shipment."Darcy's eyes swept across the list. Drug codes. Transport costs. Original route. Estimated delay. The numbers lined up in her head almost automatically—alternate western route, or force the North to absorb the breach penalty.Her fingers were about to touch the tablet when she stopped. This morning, Evelyn's words hit her without warning: *"Did you consider us?"*She stared at the list for two seconds, then looked up. "Who are these for?"Hyde blinked, clearly caught of

Chapter: Chapter 68 Unmarked Outsider"Last night was the first time I regretted letting her anywhere near Pack defense."Darcy's hand had just touched the meeting room door handle when Evelyn's voice slipped through the gap. Her wrist went rigid, knuckles whitening. There was no slamming of tables inside. Evelyn's voice was low, almost like a sigh."She pulled patrol teams last night, using Asher's schedule as bait. The North took the bait, sure, but it wasn't until I saw the deployment order this morning that I realized what she'd actually done.""The bait worked." Asher's voice came through, his fingers tapping the table edge. "Hyde sealed the border. No one crossed.""Yes, her calculations were precise. Everything went ex
