Leonardo’s fists collided with Matteo’s jaw, sending him crashing into the metal railing. Blood dripped from Matteo’s split lip, but he didn’t fight back—just glared at Leonardo with a mix of defiance and hurt.

“What the hell is wrong with you?” Matteo growled, wiping the blood from his mouth.

Leonardo didn’t answer immediately, his breathing ragged, fury coursing through his veins. The docks had been raided. Again. Someone was feeding Dante information, and Leonardo was done playing nice.

“You think I’m stupid?” Leonardo snarled, grabbing Matteo by the collar and slamming him against the wall. “Every move we make, he knows. How the hell does that happen?”

Matteo grunted, his jaw set stubbornly. “You think it’s me? You think I’d betray you?”

Leonardo’s grip tightened, his knuckles white. “You’re always where you shouldn’t be. Always asking questions. Always too close when things go wrong.”

Matteo forced himself to laugh, though pain etched his features. “You’ve lost your mind.

  • BOUND BY OBSESSION    CHAPTER TWENTY FOUR:- A GAME OF CONTROL

    Amara paced her room, the events from the previous night replaying over and over in her mind. She couldn’t believe the audacity of Leonardo to act like he owned her, especially after she had caught him making secret deals behind Dante’s back. Yet, despite her fury, she couldn’t shake the memory of his lips on hers—the way his touch had ignited something deep inside her, something she couldn’t afford to feel. Her phone vibrated on the desk, breaking her thoughts. She snatched it up, half expecting another cryptic message, but it was a text from Matteo. *We need to talk. Meet me in the garden.* She hesitated. Matteo had been distant since their encounter at the docks, his usual guarded demeanor even more impenetrable. Taking a breath to steady herself, she made her way downstairs and out into the sprawling garden. Matteo was leaning against a stone pillar, his arms crossed and his face grim. The moment he saw her, his gaze softened—just a bit—but his tension remained. “You’re avoi

  • BOUND BY OBSESSION    CHAPTER TWENTY THREE:- FIRES OF JEALOUSY

    Amara couldn’t shake the unease settling over her as she made her way back to her room. Matteo’s warning echoed in her head, but it wasn’t just his words that haunted her—it was the way he looked at her, as if he was fighting something within himself. She didn’t want to think about it. Matteo was complicated, but she couldn’t afford to get distracted. Not when Leonardo was still watching her every move like a hawk. The mansion felt colder than usual as she stepped inside, and she paused at the entrance, listening for any signs of life. Her pulse quickened when she heard voices coming from the dining room—Leonardo’s deep timbre unmistakable. Curiosity prickling at her, she moved closer, staying hidden by the archway. Leonardo was speaking to someone she didn’t recognize—a woman, laughing softly at something he said. Amara’s stomach twisted unexpectedly. She couldn’t see the woman’s face, but her voice was sultry, confident—the kind that made Amara’s skin prickle with irritation. Sh

  • BOUND BY OBSESSION    CHAPTER TWENTY TWO:- TWISTED LOYALTIES

    Amara couldn’t shake the uneasy feeling crawling under her skin. It wasn’t just the docks or Matteo’s cryptic warning—it was something deeper, like a shadow following her every move. She sat on the windowsill of her room, staring out at the sprawling gardens below, lost in thought. A sharp knock on her door made her jolt. She turned to see Angelo, one of Leonardo’s most trusted men, standing at the doorway. His face was stoic, as always, but there was a glint of something unreadable in his eyes. “Boss wants to see you,” he said, his voice low. Amara forced herself to remain calm, nodding as she followed him down the winding corridors. Her mind raced with possibilities—had Leonardo discovered her presence at the docks? Had Matteo said something? She needed to stay composed, no matter what. They arrived at Leonardo’s private study, and Angelo opened the door, motioning for her to step inside. Leonardo stood by the window, his back turned, hands clasped behind him. Tension radiated

  • BOUND BY OBSESSION    CHAPTER TWENTY ONE:- UNSEEN SHADOWS

    The mansion was unusually quiet as Leonardo sat in his study, his eyes fixed on the flickering flames in the fireplace. The tension from the docks still clung to him like a second skin, and he couldn’t shake the feeling that he was missing something crucial. Matteo had assured him that everything was secure, but something about the entire situation gnawed at his instincts. A knock on the door pulled him from his thoughts. "Come in," he called, his voice rougher than intended. The door creaked open, and Tony stepped inside—a trusted enforcer who had been with Leonardo for years. His loyalty had never been questioned, not once. Tony was dependable, sharp, and always two steps ahead when it came to security measures. "Boss," Tony greeted with a respectful nod. "I just checked the perimeter again—everything’s clear. I doubled the guards at the north entrance, just in case." Leonardo gave a slight nod, acknowledging the effort. "Good. Did Matteo report back from his patrol?" Tony’s jaw

  • BOUND BY OBSESSION    CHAPTER TWENTY:- UNRAVELING LOYALTIES

    Amara paced her room, the cryptic text message playing over and over in her mind. She couldn’t shake the unsettling feeling it brought—someone was watching her, and they knew too much. Every creak and shadow seemed amplified, as if the walls themselves were conspiring against her. The door creaked open, and she whipped around, eyes widening as Leonardo stepped inside without knocking. His face was unreadable, but his eyes carried a storm. He didn’t say a word—just stared at her with a darkness that sent a chill down her spine. “What do you want?” she snapped, masking her fear with defiance. He didn’t answer. Instead, he moved closer, his steps unhurried but deliberate. Amara swallowed hard, refusing to give ground. When he was close enough to touch, he stopped, his gaze boring into hers. “Were you at the docks tonight again?” he demanded, his voice deceptively calm. Amara hesitated, searching for the right words. “Why do you care?” His jaw tightened, and his hand shot out, grab

  • BOUND BY OBSESSION    CHAPTER NINETEEN:- SHADOWS OF DECEPTION

    Amara leaned against the cold brick wall, catching her breath, her mind racing with everything that had just transpired. The text message replayed over and over in her mind: *Careful who you trust. Eyes are everywhere.* Who sent it? And more importantly—why now? Her instincts screamed at her to leave, but her curiosity wouldn’t let her just walk away without answers. She couldn’t afford to make a mistake—not now, when Leonardo’s suspicions were already mounting. She crept back toward the docks, keeping to the shadows, trying to piece together what she had just witnessed. Leonardo had received something important—a package. But the way he had reacted afterward made her stomach twist. Suddenly, a noise snapped her from her thoughts—a low growl of an engine. Amara’s heart pounded as a sleek, dark car rolled to a stop a few yards away. Her pulse quickened when Matteo stepped out, his expression hard and unreadable. She ducked behind a stack of crates, watching as he made his way toward

  • BOUND BY OBSESSION    CHAPTER EIGHTEEN:- DANGEROUS TEMPTATION

    Amara’s hands trembled as she locked the door behind her, trying to catch her breath. The events at the docks had left her rattled—more than she wanted to admit. She couldn’t shake the feeling that Leonardo had seen her. That he knew she was there. She turned and almost screamed when she saw him standing in the shadows of her room. His presence was overpowering, and his eyes—dark and unreadable—pinned her in place. “You went to the docks,” he said calmly, but there was a dangerous edge to his voice. Amara swallowed hard, forcing herself to look unaffected. “Why do you care? It’s not like you own me.” Leonardo moved closer, every step purposeful and slow, like a predator stalking its prey. He didn’t stop until he was inches from her, his breath warm against her forehead. “Did you see something you shouldn’t have?” he whispered, his tone both taunting and threatening. Amara lifted her chin defiantly. “Maybe I did. Maybe I saw you making deals behind Dante’s back.” His jaw

  • BOUND BY OBSESSION    CHAPTER SEVENTEEN:- UNRAVELING SHADOWS

    Amara’s hands gripped the steering wheel tightly as she drove back from the docks, her mind spinning with questions and doubts. The message still lingered on her phone screen—careful who you trust. Eyes are everywhere. She couldn’t shake the creeping paranoia crawling up her spine. Who sent it? Was it a warning, or a threat? And how did they know she was there? Her phone buzzed again, and her heart leapt into her throat. She pulled over to the side of the road, glancing around to make sure she was alone. This time, it was Matteo. “Where the hell are you?” he barked the moment she picked up. Amara hesitated. “On my way back. What’s wrong?” “I just heard from one of Dante’s men. Someone tipped him off about the dock deal. He thinks Leonardo’s planning to double-cross him.” Her stomach twisted. “That’s not possible. Leonardo wouldn’t be that reckless.” “That’s what I thought too. But Dante’s losing it—he’s putting men on high alert. Whatever happened at the docks, it’s stirred up
