Michael’s POV

I’ve never been the kind of guy who lived by the clock. Sure, I liked routine—wake up, coffee, work, repeat—but life, especially mine, didn’t exactly lend itself to neat schedules.

Not when Fernando was involved.

That morning, golden light crept across the floor of my tiny one-bedroom apartment like it was trying not to wake the place up.

I sat on the edge of my bed, fingers tangled in my messy hair, eyes locked on the small form curled up on my couch.

Henry, under that thick,

  • Dark Possession: Bound To The Mafia Don   The Facade

    Michael’s POVMy wrists were beginning to hurt.I had been pulling against the restraints for what felt like an eternity, twisting my hands this way and that, searching desperately for even the smallest weakness in the knots but there was nothing.Whoever had tied me had known exactly what they were doing.I pulled against the restraints again and Carlos shook his head."You know, Michael, I'm starting to understand why Fernando—"A gunshot exploded somewhere outside and we both froze. Another followed then another until my entire body went rigid."What the hell was that?"Carlos stared toward the basement ceiling."I don't know."More gunshots rang out one after another and my heart began hammering.I immediately thought of my house and my stomach twisted. The thought of bullets flying around my house made panic rush through me.I pulled against the restraints again."I need to get out of here.""Michael—""I need to know what's happening!" I said urgently. "What if Ashley is in trou

  • Dark Possession: Bound To The Mafia Don   Back On Top

    Fernando's POVThe road seemed endless. I sat in the back of the black car with my hands restrained in front of me, listening to the low hum of the engine as we drove farther away from the city.Every few seconds, the tires rolled over uneven pavement, making the vehicle rock gently from side to side.I kept my face expressionless. I refused to give Marlo the satisfaction of seeing fear.Across from me, he sat comfortably, one arm resting against the door as though this were nothing more than an ordinary afternoon drive.Anabelle sat beside him.Two armed men occupied the seats beside me, their weapons visible beneath their jackets.Another vehicle followed behind us.I looked at him."Where exactly are you taking me?" I asked.Marlo smiled."You'll find out soon enough" he replied. I frowned. "That's not an answer.""It's the only one you're getting" he said.I leaned back against the seat."You know, Marlo, I never imagined you'd be the one sitting beside me while taking me to my

  • Dark Possession: Bound To The Mafia Don   Under Fire

    Ashley’s POVSomething was wrong. I had been trying to ignore the feeling for the last several minutes, but it had become impossible.Michael should have been back by now. He had said he was going to Theo's house to check on what happened Henry and talk to Theo, but too much time had passed.Far too much.I stood near the living-room window, staring through the curtains toward Theo's house."He's taking too long," I muttered.Nick, who was sitting on the couch, looked up from his phone then slipped it into his pocket."Maybe Theo has a lot to explain" he said."That's exactly what worries me" I replied. Henry was sitting in the armchair nearby, his attention fixed on the television even though I could tell he wasn't watching it.Nick stood."Should we go over there?" He asked."That's what I'm thinking" I replied. Henry immediately shook his head."No."I frowned."I'm not going" he added."Henry—""I don't want to go back there" he said.His voice was sharper than usual and I excha

  • Dark Possession: Bound To The Mafia Don   Tied Hands

    Michael's POVThe ropes were cutting into my wrists.I had lost count of how many times I had shifted against them, trying to find even the slightest bit of slack, but whoever had tied me had known exactly what they were doing.My hands were secured behind me, my back pressed against a thick concrete pillar in the basement.A few feet away, Carlos was tied to another one and the sight of him somehow made my frustration worse."This is ridiculous," I muttered.Carlos lifted his head."You're only realizing that now?"I exhaled sharply and looked around.The basement was dim, illuminated by a single overhead bulb that flickered every few seconds. Somewhere above us, I could hear muffled footsteps.I stopped then I looked at my hands as a terrible thought entered my mind.If I dislocated my thumb, maybe I could pull my hand through.I stared at it for several seconds and Carlos noticed."You think breaking your thumb is going to magically solve everything?" He asked."I don't care." I pu

  • Dark Possession: Bound To The Mafia Don   A Promise With Loopholes

    Fernando's POVI watched Mortis disappear.Two of Marlo's men had dragged him toward the second vehicle while another pair followed closely behind, weapons visible beneath their jackets.One of the guards shoved him into the vehicle and the door slammed shut.I watched the car pull away.My jaw tightened."Where are they taking him?"Marlo stood beside me, watching the same vehicle disappear down the road."Somewhere quiet" he replied. "That's not an answer.""It's the only one you're getting" he said.I ignored the words then my thoughts returned to Michael, Henry and the others.I needed certainty."You promise you wouldn't touch Michael, Henry, Ashley and Nick."He gave me a knowing look."I will not personally touch Michael, nor Henry" he said.My shoulders relaxed slightly."And Ashley and Nick?"Marlo shrugged."I have no interest in them" he replied. I frowned. "That's not what I asked."He sighed."I won't personally hurt them either" he said.I searched his face."You swea

  • Dark Possession: Bound To The Mafia Don   New Plans

    Michael's POVFor several seconds, I could only stare at Theo. I couldn't make sense of what he had just said.The words kept replaying inside my head."What does that mean?" I asked.Theo didn't answer then he turned away from me."Theo, I'm asking you a question."I pulled against Roberto's grip, frustration boiling inside me."What have you done?" I asked.Theo walked toward the other side of the basement, where Roberto had left a small table covered with phones, documents, and several sets of keys.My stomach tightened. He wasn't ignoring me because he didn't have an answer, he was ignoring me because he didn't want to give me one."Theo!"He finally stopped then his shoulders rose and fell with a heavy breath. Finally, he turned around."I've made a decision" he said."You don't get to make decisions for me" I shot at him.His eyes hardened."I do when you're incapable of protecting yourself" he replied. I stared at him."I'm not incapable of protecting myself" I argued. "You s

    Fernando’s POVMy expensive black car hummed beneath us as we pulled up to the front gate of Richmond Elementary School. The morning sun glistened against the tall white buildings with gold trimmings, casting a regal glow over the prestigious grounds. The lush emerald-green lawns were freshly mow

    Michael’s POV The throbbing in my arm hadn’t stopped since it was fixed by Ashley. The bandages were tight, a constant reminder that I had nearly died today—or maybe yesterday, I didn’t even know what time it was anymore. The painkillers had dulled the edge, but the ache still lived deep in the

    Fernando’s POV The sun had risen like an unwanted truth. Its golden light crept slowly over the horizon, shining at the edges of Archer’s private beach house and it looked imposing just standing there. The sea behind it glistened with a annoying kind of calmness, a shimmering reflection of a wor

    Archer’s POV I saw him. Of all the places he could’ve gone, of all the streets in this godforsaken city, he chose this dull, unimpressive, low-end restaurant. But none of that mattered. Because he was there. Michael. Standing beside another man. “Why are you here?” Michael asked, his voice c
