Claimed by his obsession CHAPTER 121
Damien's POVWe flew back from Lisbon immediately, Detective Morrison coordinating with international authorities to begin building a case against Reinhardt Kruger."This is bigger than local jurisdiction can handle alone," she explained during the flight. "I'm bringing in Interpol. If he's been operating across multiple countries for thirty years, we need international cooperation.""How long will that take?" Sophia asked."Weeks, possibly months, to build a proper case," Detective Morrison admitted. "Men like this don't get caught quickly. They've had decades to build protection."I felt the weight of that timeline settle heavily in my chest."Meanwhile, he's threatening our family directly," I said. "We can't just wait patiently while bureaucracy moves slowly.""I understand your frustration," Detective Morrison said. "But rushing carelessly could destroy any chance of building a case that actually holds up in court."Back at the estate, we gathered the family once more, sharing ev

Sophia's POVWe brought Wei Richard home from school that same afternoon, security personnel positioned discreetly around the vehicle the entire drive.He noticed immediately that something was wrong."Mom, why are there extra cars following us?" he asked, watching nervously through the back window.I chose my words carefully. "There's been a security concern," I said. "Nothing you need to worry about, but we're taking extra precautions.""What kind of concern?" he pressed.Damien glanced at me before answering. "Someone we don't fully know yet has been asking questions about our family," he said. "Including about you."Wei Richard's face paled slightly, though he tried to remain composed."Is this connected to what happened with Cole? And that man you met at the lighthouse?" he asked."We think so," I said honestly. "But we're being extremely careful now, especially with you.""Am I going to have security everywhere?" he asked. "At school, everywhere I go?""For now," Damien said gen

Damien's POVNobody slept much that night.Elijah stayed up late, tracing the number that sent the message. Zane sat beside him, quiet, watching every line of code carefully."Nothing," Elijah said near morning. "Same as before. Bounced through many countries. Hidden well."I looked at Sophia. She looked tired but strong."We need a new plan," she said. "Chasing messages is not working fast enough.""What do you suggest?" Dominic asked.Sophia thought for a moment."We give them what they want," she said. "Or at least, we make them think we do.""What do you mean?" I asked."Elena said this person cares about how much we know," Sophia said. "About the full network. What if we let them believe we know more than we actually do? Enough to make them nervous. Enough to make them move.""That's risky," Elijah said carefully. "If they panic, they might disappear completely.""Or they might make a mistake," Zane said slowly. "People who panic often do."We spent the next two days planning car

Sophia's POVI stared at the screen, unable to fully accept what I was seeing."That's Elena," I whispered.The woman who had brought us the truth about Alesta Holdings. The woman whose son had befriended Wei Richard. The woman we'd trusted enough to invite into our home, into our family's healing process."This doesn't make sense," Damien said slowly. "Why would she reveal the Alesta Holdings connection if she was working against us?""Unless that was exactly the point," Zane said grimly. "Establish trust first. Give us something true, something that seems like genuine cooperation, then use that trust for something else entirely.""But what could she possibly want from us now?" I asked.Elijah, who had been quietly studying the footage, spoke up carefully."She was near the private offices," he said. "Specifically near the room where we keep sensitive foundation documents, patent filings, everything related to your parents' original research."My stomach dropped. "The Meritus Project

Damien's POVWe decided to approach Carter carefully, without accusation, watching his reactions closely.I called him the next morning, keeping my voice casual."Carter, could you come by the estate today? Need your input on something legal.""Of course," he said, no hesitation in his voice. "This afternoon work?""Perfect," I said, hanging up with my heart pounding despite the calm exterior I'd maintained.Carter arrived precisely on time, his demeanor exactly as it had always been over the years, warm and professional."What's this about?" he asked, settling into the chair across from my desk.I watched his face carefully as I spoke. "We've discovered some financial irregularities in old Alesta Holdings records. Payments that don't match documented history."Carter's expression remained neutral. "What kind of irregularities?""Regular withdrawals, over fifteen years," I said. "Tied to someone with detailed knowledge of our family's movements."Something flickered briefly across Car
Claimed by his obsession CHAPTER 116
Sophia's POVIt started with something small.Elijah called me on a Tuesday afternoon, his voice careful in a way I'd learned to notice over the years."I found something strange in the Alesta Holdings records," he said. "A payment that doesn't match anything Elena's grandmother documented.""What kind of payment?" I asked."Small amounts, sent regularly, over almost fifteen years," Elijah said. "Starting around the time Alesta Holdings dissolved, continuing until about two years ago.""Who received it?" I asked.There was a pause."An account linked to someone inside our own security network," Elijah said carefully. "Sophia, I think we need to look at this properly before saying anything to the family."My stomach tightened. "Who, Elijah?""I'm not certain yet," he said. "The account holder's name is masked behind another shell structure. But the withdrawal patterns match someone with detailed knowledge of our family's movements over the years.""That could be almost anyone close to

POV: DamienI tossed the quarterly reports onto the center of the table. The sharp smack made the head of acquisitions flinch in his expensive suit."This is garbage," I said, leaning back in my chair. "You actually call this a projection?"The guy stammered, frantically wiping sweat off his forehe
Claimed by his obsession CHAPTER THREE
Sophia's POVHoly fuckity fuck. There was no way you could call the Black estate a house. It was a whole fortress made of glass and steel, the whole building reeled of intimidation.Dominic’s driver took my cracked suitcase like it was a lump of dirt and disappeared into the shadows of the foyer. D

Sophia's POVThe rain wasn't stopping. If anything, it got louder, mocking me with every heavy drop that hit the plastic roof of the bus stop.I stared at my phone's screen blankly. As though staring at it continuously was going to make a single dollar pop up.How was I supposed to even get a bus?
Claimed by his obsession CHAPTER ONE
Sophia's POV"Get out."Two words. That was all it took for my entire life to faceplant into the dirt.I stood there, staring at the man I’d called my husband for three years, and for a second, I actually thought I’d misheard him.Because I was the one who just walked in on him. I was the one stand
