Michael’s POV

The room felt wrong the moment Santiago finished that sentence.

"Do you have the boy?"

I fired off a warning shot angrily but it only hit the shelves. Santiago barely moved as if he knew i wouldn't be able to do anything.

"What you do right now determines if Henry lives or not" Santiago said.

The words echoed in my skull, louder than the gunshot I had fired seconds earlier. My finger was still tight on the trigger, my arm extended, but my body felt detached from itself, as if I w

  • Dark Possession: Bound To The Mafia Don   Promises in a Hospital Hallway

    Michael’s POV"The surgery was a success but we still need to monitor him" the doctor said before leaving. The doctor had reassured us that Theo was stable and the surgery had been successful but hospital procedures meant none of us could immediately rush into his room.So we waited and waited.Kim paced nervously, Henry kept reassuring her while Fernando stood nearby with his arms folded.I sat quietly, occasionally glancing toward Theo's room. Every time a nurse emerged, my attention immediately shifted, every single time.Kim eventually stood up."They're really making us wait."Henry smiled softly."They just finished surgery.""I know, but I want to see him" she sighed dramatically.A nurse eventually approached us."You can begin visiting" she said.Kim immediately stood.The nurse pointed at her."One person at a time."Kim nodded so quickly it was almost funny."I'll go first" she said.She disappeared into the room and the door closed behind her while the rest of us resumed

  • Dark Possession: Bound To The Mafia Don   Waiting for the Truth

    Fernando's POVI knew exactly what was coming. The moment Theo woke up, everything would change, maybe not immediately or dramatically but eventually.The truth had a way of finding its way into the light and if Theo decided to tell Michael what really happened tonight, then the small amount of progress I had managed to make with Michael would disappear overnight.Or worse.Michael would take Henry and move even farther away from me and then New York would become impossible.The thought irritated me.For years I had watched from a distance, I had convinced myself it was necessary and I had accepted it.Now that they were standing in front of me again, I wasn't willing to lose them a second time, especially not to Theo.The hallway remained quiet.The only sounds came from nurses moving through the building and the distant beeping of hospital equipment.Michael sat in one of the chairs nearby. His elbows rested on his knees while his eyes remained fixed on the operating room doors.He

  • Dark Possession: Bound To The Mafia Don   Between Doubt and Loyalty

    Michael’s POVThe silence that followed felt heavier than any argument we had shared all night.Fernando had stopped walking and now everyone in the hallway seemed to be waiting to see what I would say next.Honestly, I wasn't entirely sure myself.A few minutes ago, I had punched him, now I was standing here feeling guilty about it.Fernando turned around slowly, his expression calmer now. Though I could still see the redness on his jaw from where I had hit him.The sight made me feel even worse."Why did you stop me?" he asked.The question was simple but the answer wasn't."I shouldn't have punched you" I said.Fernando raised an eyebrow. That was apparently not what he had expected to hear.Ashley looked surprised, Nick looked equally shocked and Fernando stared at me for several seconds then a small smile appeared."I'll remember this moment forever" he said.I immediately regretted apologizing."Don't make it weird."His smile widened."I can't help it."I let out a long sigh an

  • Dark Possession: Bound To The Mafia Don   The Accusation

    Fernando's POVThe punch landed far harder than I ever would have expected from Michael.I staggered backward, the taste of blood immediately filling my mouth.For several seconds, I couldn't even process what had happened.Michael had hit me and the entire hallway had gone silent.A nurse stood frozen near us, Nick looked stunned, Ashley looked shocked and even Henry looked horrified.I slowly lifted a hand and touched my jaw."Damn," I muttered.Michael looked furious. His eyes were blazing, his chest rose and fell rapidly and his fists remained clenched at his sides.I had seen Michael angry before many times but this was different."What the hell is wrong with you?" he demanded.The hallway echoed with his voice and I stared at him, still trying to understand how things had deteriorated this quickly then I noticed something else.Beneath all that anger was fear and immediately I knew why.Theo.Of course.My jaw tightened as Michael took a step forward."Did you do it?" He asked.

  • Dark Possession: Bound To The Mafia Don   The Punch That Silenced the Hallway

    Michael’s POVEverything happened so fast.One moment Theo was standing in the doorway, the next he was collapsing into my arms and now doctors and nurses were rushing him through the hospital corridors while I struggled to keep up.My hands were stained with his blood but the realization wouldn't leave my mind.I stared at the dark red streaks on my skin as I jogged alongside the moving stretcher.The sight made my stomach twist.Theo's eyes were closed now, his face had become alarmingly pale. Machines beeped around him, voices echoed from every direction and the medical team moved with frightening efficiency."BP is dropping.""Get another line ready.""Move!""Let's go, let's go!"I tried to stay beside him, I really did but eventually a nurse stepped in front of me."Sir, you need to stop here" she said."What?""You can't go any further."I stared at her."What do you mean I can't go any further?""The operating area is restricted" she replied. "They just brought him in.""I kno

  • Dark Possession: Bound To The Mafia Don   Father's Decision

    Fernando's POVThe night felt colder than before, or maybe it was just me, especially after everything that had happened since the sky turned dark.The streetlights cast long shadows across the pavement as my men moved around the scene, speaking into radios and handling the aftermath of the confrontation.They removed the dead bodies of those bastards who thought they could mess with the heir of the Ramirez family empire. As they worked, I barely paid attention. My focus remained entirely on Henry.He stood a few feet away from me, frozen in place, the plastic snack bag hung loosely from one hand.His face had gone pale, his eyes looked distant and I hated seeing him like that.For years I had imagined what it would be like to have my son back in my life. I had imagined conversations, arguments, awkward reunions, maybe even resentment but I had never imagined this.I exhaled slowly."Henry."He didn't answer immediately. His eyes remained fixed on the ground."Henry" I called again.

  • Dark Possession: Bound To The Mafia Don   The Line Between Love and Blood

    Fernando’s POV My fingers drummed against the mahogany desk, the polished surface gleaming beneath the lamp. I knew Michael could feel the weight of my gaze on him, but he stubbornly refused to look at me. He stood near the tall window, staring out into the near dark garden as if the evening coul

  • Dark Possession: Bound To The Mafia Don   Look In His Eyes

    Fernando’s POV The room where I held most of my meetings smelled faintly of cigar smoke and polished mahogany, the kind of heavy air that clung to the walls long after the men had left. I sat in my chair that had broken men with nothing more than silence, while the walls were filled with roch an

  • Dark Possession: Bound To The Mafia Don   Shadows in the Mansion

    Fernando’s POV I leaned back in my leather chair, the room cloaked in light from the chandelier above, the smell of cigar smoke faint in the air. My jacket hung loosely on the armrest, my shirt collar undone. Marlo stood by the fireplace, his hands clasped behind his back, his frame stiff. His

  • Dark Possession: Bound To The Mafia Don   Between Loyalty and Law

    Michael’s POV The first thing I noticed when I stepped into Fernando’s study wasn’t the smell of smoke, or the dim golden hue of the desk lamp, or even the polished oak shelves that carried a hundred books I knew he never read. It was the way he looked at me. Calm, composed and regal, almost, bu
