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 108 The Uninvited GuestDominic didn't answer right away. Instead, he walked over to the window. Outside, the sky was a dull, heavy gray, choked with thick clouds. Down in the courtyard, the white peacock was huddled on a patch of dead grass, its feathers tucked in so tightly it looked like a stuffed specimen."Specimens. Live ones," he said, his voice completely flat. "The cold-chain line D.S. is running through North Port is being used exclusively to move live specimens."Avery’s heart skipped a beat. "What kind of specimens?"Dominic turned around, his grey eyes locking onto hers with sudden sharpness. "You're crossing the line, Dr. Clair.""I need to know.""No, you don't."He stepped closer, his towering frame casting a long shadow over her."Instead of worrying about secrets you can't reach," he said, looking down at her, "you need to focus on staying in this room. Take care of Dorothea, and make sure your brother's medication is managed. Understood?""You—""Jessica will be staying at the estate for a

Chapter: Chapter 107 The BystanderThe linen napkin fell from Avery’s fingers, pooling uselessly against the surface of the mahogany table. "What is the precise meaning of your data packet?"An absolute silence collapsed over the dining hall for several prolonged seconds. Jessica Winster deposited her silver utensils flat against the table, lifting her crystal water glass to execute a calculated sip. Her tracking focus cut across the rim of the glass, pinning Avery’s silhouette across the space."Dr. Clair, your department is not required to deploy that specific visual analysis toward my profile." Jessica deposited the glass back onto the table with a clean resonance. "My presence within these coordinates does not track with personal intent. I cleared the outer perimeter simply because his station demanded my deployment."She shifted her chin fractionally toward the apex of the board, indicating Dominic’s position.Dominic offered zero verbal data to close the loop. He remained leaned back against the support of his ch

Chapter: Chapter 106 The Rehearsal Within the Pink CageThe early morning light did not dispel the heavy atmospheric depression anchoring over the master suite.It was a rare weekend where Dominic refrained from managing the system's corporate formulas, choosing instead to push open the primary door to Dorothea’s room.The child was seated flat on the carpet executing a drawing, a chaotic array of multicolored wax crayons scattered around her perimeter. Dominic descended onto a small, pink plastic chair beside her frame. The furniture was far too narrow for his proportions, forcing his massive body into a highly restricted, coiled posture, his long legs driven directly up against his chest.The arrangement appeared exceptionally awkward, yet his sharp features remained entirely flat as his grey irises tracked the movement of his daughter’s hand.Avery cleared the threshold, escorted by a senior maid. Standing stationary at the entry point to witness the scene, her system registered a brief, ironic trace of amusement.However, the exact nex

Chapter: Chapter 105 The Imprisoned KissAvery’s chest tightened instantly. Before her feet could execute a tactical advance toward the exit, the proximity lighting system outside the threshold flared to life.There was zero time left on the board.This administrative data core was completely streamlined, offering an open horizon devoid of a single storage cabinet or structural barrier capable of shielding her profile. Her clinical focus swept the perimeter in a split second; her only viable path was to force her silhouette straight into the narrow fissure separating two parallel rows of massive server units.The exact millisecond her shoulder blades made contact with the freezing metallic casing of the mainframe, the heavy thermal exhaust generated by the machinery slammed directly into her face.Beep—The security interface processed a verification token.The heavy alloy door glided open, and a sequence of dense, deliberate combat boots began to close in on her coordinates.Avery suspended her respiration completely, the s

Chapter: Chapter 104 The Golden Pass"Clause three of the care contract. If your station deploys physical force, my department maintains the authorization to counter the strike."Avery was pinned flat against the mattress, the absolute majority of her physical frame restricted from movement. She ceased her physical struggle, turning her face fractionally to glance at the neural monitoring terminal broadcasting a steady green luminescence from the nightstand."If you choose to terminate my biological line tonight, the system will instantly flag a high-level alert. By tomorrow, the entire city will possess the diagnostic data that the Sovereign has suffered absolute cognitive collapse."Dominic’s respiration executed a sudden freeze.The large palm stabilizing her wrist vibrated violently, his grey irises noticeably fractured and unaligned, yet the unvarnished mockery burning in the deep margins of Avery’s stare still mirrored perfectly within his pupils.The disorganized parameters of their breathing tangled through the s

Chapter: Chapter 103 At Your MercyMorning initialized. Avery stood flat before the looking glass, fastening the functional buttons of her clinical white coat.The night before, both counterparties had nearly authorized their systems to draw blood, yet the personal care contract linking her department to Dominic’s station still possessed a remaining margin of thirty days. This absolute, rigid mandate had ironically inverted into a high-level executive security pass, granting her system the authorization to clear the perimeter of the third floor at will.Due to the intensive configuration of the debridement protocol required for his right arm, Dominic had uncharacteristically remained within the secure parameters of the Kessler estate to execute his administrative operations.Pushing open the heavy reinforced double doors of the third floor, the interior layout had already been reconfigured into a temporary executive tribunal. Dominic was recessed deep into the cushions of his black leather chair, his left hand pressing
