Ashley’s POV

I wasn’t just angry — I was livid.

My eyes were locked on Andrew, and every word he said just seemed to make me angrier.

"You have no idea what the hell you're talking about!" I snapped, my voice slicing through the thick silence that had descended in the room.

“Ashley—” The Chief began, his voice firm but controlled, trying to get me to calm down. But I wasn’t about to back down. Not this time.

“No, Chief,” I interrupted, standing abruptly, the chair scraping loudly against the f

  • Dark Possession: Bound To The Mafia Don   Past His Gaze

    Michael’s POVI didn’t leave and I should have but something made me want to stay.Every survival instinct in my body screamed at me to get out of that house while I still could now that Theo was distracted. The front door had opened and whoever stood outside had unknowingly given me a window but instead of heading straight for the back exit, I moved toward the staircase landing.Curiosity was a dangerous thing and I had always been weak when it came to danger.From where I stood, slightly elevated above the foyer, I could see the front entrance clearly without being immediately visible. The staircase railing cast thin shadows across my face, hiding me further in dim afternoon light.Theo opened the door. He was still wearing nothing but a towel loosely tied around his waist.Water droplets traced down his chest. His hair was damp, pushed back carelessly, giving him a wild, untamed look and standing at the door was Mrs. Hansley, our married neighbor.She was in her mid-thirties, alw

  • Dark Possession: Bound To The Mafia Don   What He Was Hiding

    Michael’s POVI did not move, I did not breathe. The moment Theo stepped back into the office, still flushed from his run, I slipped deeper into the narrow blind spot between the tall bookshelf and the heavy velvet curtain that framed the window. It was barely enough space for me to stand upright, but it was enough.Theo shut the office door behind him with an absent push of his hand. His shirt clung to his skin, damp with sweat, outlining every sharp line of muscle beneath. A thin trail of sweat slid down from his neck to disappear beneath the waistband of his shorts and I swallowed my saliva.Focus, this wasn’t about his body, this was about the truth.His phone rang but Theo didn’t bother sitting down. He answered immediately, his voice low but edged with irritation.“What is it?”The tone alone made my stomach tighten.There was no friendliness, no business charm, just authority.“I told you the shipment arrives tonight. Not tomorrow, tonight.”Shipment?My pulse quickened.He

  • Dark Possession: Bound To The Mafia Don   Sudden Arrival

    Michael’s POVThe moment my hand touched the cool metal of Theo’s gate, I felt the weight of what I was doing settle heavily in my chest.This wasn’t surveillance from a distance, this was intrusion.I inhaled slowly, straightened my shoulders, and pressed the access override I had already prepared on my phone. It took less than three seconds for the gate’s electronic lock to click open.Either Theo trusted his security system too much or he believed no one would dare test it.I walked in casually, shutting the gate behind me with controlled calm. The gravel path crunched softly beneath my shoes. The garden was pristine with trimmed hedges, beautiful stone features, and a small water installation that reflected the morning sun.Everything about this place screamed power.A soft voice interrupted my thoughts.“Good morning, Michael.”I turned.Mrs. Alvarez from two houses down stood near the edge of her property, trimming her roses. She was in her late fifties, warm smile, observant e

  • Dark Possession: Bound To The Mafia Don   Watching the Target

    Michael’s POVI had not slept well the night before.Theo Park’s house stood directly across from ours like a silent evil. Even in the early hours of the morning, before the suburban town had properly woken, his compound looked perfect.I stood by the living room window with a mug of coffee that had long gone cold in my hand, my eyes fixed on the faint glow from one of the upstairs windows in Theo’s house. I was using my binoculars to watch and I wasn’t going to take any chances.If Theo was hiding something, I would find it, because if he went down, if I could expose him, prove whatever shady business the director suspected then he would be arrested, removed and gone from my life, Henry’s life and everything could go back to how it was before.I adjusted the googles in my hands, watching the window but there was nothing.Theo was either clean, which I didn’t believe for a second, or he was extremely careful.I exhaled slowly.“Come on, make a mistake” I muttered under my breath.Th

  • Dark Possession: Bound To The Mafia Don   The New Neighbor

    Michael’s POV The initial shock didn’t last long, but it left a weight in my chest. Theo Park was standing on the doorstep, staring at me with that same calculating smirk he had worn at school. Ashley’s hand rested lightly on my arm, but I could feel her tension. She wasn’t usually intimidated, but this man was different. There was something magnetic about him and not in a good way.I cleared my throat and forced a polite smile, holding the cake box like a shield. “Evening. We thought we would welcome you to the neighborhood” I said as if i was reading from a script. Theo’s eyes flicked to Ashley briefly before returning to me. “A cake, how thoughtful,” he said, the words sliding out in that insufferable tone that suggested he was mocking me without even trying.Ashley stepped forward quickly. “Michael had this idea,” she said smoothly, her tone polite but firm. “We just wanted to introduce ourselves.”Theo tilted his head, examining me again. “I remember you, from the school

  • Dark Possession: Bound To The Mafia Don   Across the Street

    Michael’s POVThe office felt quieter than usual when we finally shut our laptops.Ashley leaned back in her chair and stretched. “I hate missions without clear edges.”Nick snorted from across the table in the small conference room we had claimed for ourselves. “You just hate uncertainty.”“I hate walking blind,” she corrected.I closed the file in front of me.The name, Theo Park, alone was enough to ruin my appetite.“You’re thinking about him again,” Nick said.“I never stopped" I replied.Ashley studied me carefully. “You’ve dealt with worse men.”“That’s not what bothers me.”Nick’s brows lifted. “Then what does?”I leaned back slowly, staring at the ceiling.“It’s Henry” I replied.Nick’s expression shifted immediately while Ashley’s posture softened.“He really likes Kim" I said.Ashley nodded. “That’s not a crime.”“No, but her father is a problem” I agreed. Nick clasped his hands together on the table. “Allegedly.”I shot him a look and he shrugged. “We don’t have pr
