Ashley’s POV

The late morning sun spilled over the streets, soft yet almost blinding through the tinted windows of Fernando’s black Maserati.

The car hummed smoothly beneath us as it moved toward the hospital. My hands were clasped too tightly in my lap, my heart quick and uneven despite how cool I was trying to act.

Every time I thought about Michael, my stomach twisted.

He was supposed to be safe. He had promised me that things were going to be under control but now it seemed like it wasn’t

  • Dark Possession: Bound To The Mafia Don   Still Married

    Michael’s POVI wanted to disappear.That was the first clear thought in my head as I sat beside the table while Fernando and Theo stared at each other like two predators silently measuring strength.The restaurant suddenly felt suffocating.I could hear cutlery clinking against plates somewhere nearby. Soft music still floated through the air mockingly, as if the universe hadn’t just decided to ruin my life again.People were pretending not to stare and not notice the tension around our table but I could feel their curiosity anyway.Fernando looked completely calm, like he hadn’t just detonated a bomb in the middle of my evening.Theo, on the other hand, looked stunned, quietly hurtand somehow that expression affected me more than yelling would have.I ran a frustrated hand through my hair before glaring at Fernando.“What the hell is wrong with you?” I asked.Fernando leaned back slightly in his chair.“I introduced myself.”“You ambushed us.”“I joined you for dinner.”“You followe

  • Dark Possession: Bound To The Mafia Don   The Husband's Introduction

    Fernando’s POVI had been watching Michael since morning because I simply couldn’t stay away.After years of forcing myself to remain distant for his safety, suddenly being in the same town as him again felt like torture.Every instinct I had buried for years had resurfaced all at once.The need to see him, hear his voice and know he was safe consumed me even though it was pathetic for a ruthless Don to act like this. I had originally planned to approach Michael calmly today, but then a limousine arrived and Michael came outside a few minutes later dressed nicely, clearly nervous despite trying to hide it.A man stepped out holding flowers and I stared at the bouquet with growing irritation.Michael looked embarrassed while Henry stood by the doorway trying not to laugh at whatever the man was saying.Something ugly twisted sharply in my chest.“Boss?”I ignored my guard completely because all I could focus on was Michael getting into another man’s limousine.I knew I technically had

  • Dark Possession: Bound To The Mafia Don   An Unwanted Interruption

    Michael’s POVThe restaurant was beautiful. Crystal chandeliers glowed warmly overhead while soft music drifted through the air like silk. The scent of expensive wine and rich food lingered around the room, blending with low conversations and occasional laughter from other guests.Theo walked beside me calmly as one of the restaurant staff guided us through the dining area.“Mr. Park, your table is ready” the hostess said warmly, clearly recognizing him. We were led toward a quieter section near the large glass windows overlooking the city lights.The table itself was secluded enough for privacy without being completely hidden. Candles flickered softly between polished silverware and expensive wine glasses.I stared at the setup suspiciously.“Theo.”He looked pleased with himself.“What?”“You planned this way too carefully" I said.“I have no idea what you mean" he replied with a smirk.“You absolutely do" I said.He pulled out my chair for me with exaggerated politeness. I narrow

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

    Michael’s POVI changed my shirt three times which was ridiculous.I stood in front of the mirror in my bedroom staring at myself with growing irritation while holding two different black button-ups in my hands.“This is stupid,” I muttered.From the doorway, Henry looked deeply unimpressed.“You’ve said that like eight times already" he said.“Because it is stupid.”“Then why are you nervous?”“I’m not nervous.”Henry raised an eyebrow immediately.“You changed clothes three times" he pointed out.I sighed and tossed one of the shirts onto the bed before rubbing my forehead tiredly.The house felt strangely quiet tonight. Ashley and Nick were still in the hospital recovering. Ramon had gone home earlier after practically forcing me to eat.And now I was somehow preparing for a date with Theo Park after everything that had happened between us.My life had officially become insane.Henry walked fully into the room and leaned casually against the wall.“I'll soon head for the hospital"

  • Dark Possession: Bound To The Mafia Don   Familiar Eyes

    Fernando’s POVThe school parking lot was crowded with parents waiting inside expensive cars, students laughing too loudly and teachers standing near the gates pretending they had control over the chaos.I sat quietly inside my black car with one arm resting against the door while the engine hummed softly beneath me.Dark sunglasses hid my eyes even though the afternoon sun wasn’t particularly bright.My attention remained fixed on the school entrance while my phone buzzed against the console beside me.I glanced at the screen to see it was Carlos and a small amused breath escaped me before I answered.“You’re persistent" I said.His warm voice immediately filled the car.“And you’re avoiding me” he replied. “I’m busy.”“You’ve been ‘busy’ for days.”I smirked faintly.“Has it really been that long?”“Yes, and I’m starting to think you don’t miss me” Carlos complained dramatically. I leaned back against the leather seat comfortably.“That’s a dangerous assumption.”Carlos laughed so

  • Dark Possession: Bound To The Mafia Don   Flowers on the Table

    Michael’s POVThe elevator doors slid open quietly, and I stepped out onto the private floor carrying two paper bags of food in one hand and a neatly folded change of clothes draped over my arm.The hospital hallway was quieter than usual today or maybe I was just finally exhausted enough to notice it.I exhaled slowly and adjusted my grip on the bags before walking toward their room.The private hospital section was heavily guarded. Director Hale had made sure of that.Two security men stood outside Ashley and Nick’s room, both of them giving me small respectful nods as I approached.“Morning, Michael.”“Morning.”One of them opened the door for me and the moment I stepped inside, warmth replaced the cold sterility of the hallway.Ramon looked up immediately and relief crossed his face.“There you are" he said.I managed a tired smile.“You sound like I disappeared for three days.”“You disappeared for forty minutes, which is enough to worry me considering your history lately” he cor

  • Dark Possession: Bound To The Mafia Don   The Shattered Moment

    Fernando’s POV I could still smell Marlo’s cologne lingering in the room long after he left. The meeting had ended several moments ago, but my head felt heavier with every passing second. I stood by the tall windows of my study, the dying afternoon sun turning the marble floor of the mansion a d

    Michael’s POV The wind was already hot when I stepped out of the cab, and it felt like summer had no intention of backing down anytime soon. I jogged the last few steps toward the front doors of Kafé Verse. Late again. I hated that. But I also knew trying to argue with the traffic would be like

  • Dark Possession: Bound To The Mafia Don   Henry, welcome to my Mansion

    Fernando’s POV The iron gates of my mansion swung open with a low groan, the convoy of black SUVs and my car rumbling up the driveway like a funeral procession. I could still hear Henry’s muffled sobs through the closed door of my car. Each cry was a needle under my skin.When the car rolled to a
