Fernando’s POV

The sting of her slap still lingered on my cheek.

Ashley’s handprint, small but vicious, pulsed hot against my skin.

It wasn’t the pain that ignited the storm in me—it was the audacity.

Me, Fernando Ramirez. Don of my family. Feared by men who wouldn’t dare look me in the eye, let alone raise their hand.

And yet… she had.

The compound was silent for a beat, shocked faces frozen in disbelief. My men—sharp suits, steady hands, trained to kill—looked like statues, jaws slack
Osarumwense Osakue

  • Dark Possession: Bound To The Mafia Don   Surrounded

    Fernando's POVThe gunshot echoed through the air and every muscle in my body locked as I braced myself for the impact.I waited but nothing happened. I blinked and I was still standing.Slowly, almost disbelievingly, I looked down at myself. There was no blood. My hands remained raised exactly where they had been.The little boy was still clutching his stuffed dinosaur. His mother screamed, grabbing him into her arms before dragging him back toward the restaurant.People scattered in every direction and someone else shouted for the police, but none of that mattered.I was still alive.I lowered my gaze slightly before turning toward Mortis.He had stepped halfway out of the car, his gun now drawn as his eyes searched every rooftop surrounding the restaurant."What happened? Did he miss?" he shouted."I don't know" I replied. Mortis frowned."An assassin like that doesn't miss."I agreed.The man who had called me earlier didn't sound like someone who relied on luck. He sounded preci

  • Dark Possession: Bound To The Mafia Don   The Truth Behind the Cameras

    Michael's POVFor several long seconds, nobody moved. The basement suddenly felt much smaller.The cold concrete walls seemed to close in around me as I stared at Theo and Roberto standing in the doorway.Theo leaned lightly against the doorframe, his complexion still pale from his injuries, but there was nothing weak about the expression on his face.Beside him, Roberto stood with his arms folded, his posture calm and unreadable.Carlos sighed dramatically from behind me."Well...I suppose this is awkward."He looked from me to Theo but nobody answered him.I slowly turned toward Theo and his eyes never left mine."You knew I was here.""I suspected" he replied. I frowned and Roberto spoke instead."I noticed something. When you supposedly left the house, Kim was acting strangely" he said.My stomach tightened."What do you mean?"Roberto glanced briefly toward Theo before looking back at me."She almost never lies. But today, she wouldn't look me in the eye" he said.He spoke calml

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

    Fernando's POVMy grip tightened painfully around the phone. Through the shattered passenger window, I watched the woman gently tug her little boy along the sidewalk.The child couldn't have been older than five.He clutched a green stuffed dinosaur against his chest while looking up at his mother, completely unaware that somewhere nearby, someone was calmly deciding whether he would live or die.The assassin's voice remained unnervingly composed."You have fifteen seconds."I clenched my jaw."Leave them out of this. They were never part of it, then don't make them pay for my existence" I said angrily. "I don't make the rules. I fulfill contracts" he replied. His tone was so calm that it chilled me more than any scream could have.Mortis remained crouched behind the steering wheel, his eyes constantly scanning the rooftops and surrounding buildings."Don Fernando," he whispered urgently, "don't listen to him."I ignored him.The woman's son stumbled slightly and she laughed softly,

  • Dark Possession: Bound To The Mafia Don   The Basement Secret

    Michael's POVMy heart pounded so loudly that I was convinced Roberto could hear it.I stayed perfectly still behind the decorative partition, barely daring to breathe as Kim stepped away from me and into the middle of the hallway.She was calm, far calmer than I was.Roberto stopped a few feet away, his sharp eyes narrowing slightly."Kim?"She smiled naturally, lifting the glass of water in her hand."I was just talking to myself" she said.Roberto raised an eyebrow."Talking to yourself?"She laughed awkwardly."I've had a stressful morning" she replied. "Haven't we all?""I guess so."He studied her for another few seconds and I held my breath.Please...don't look this way.Roberto glanced briefly down the hallway where I was hidden before returning his attention to Kim."You should get some rest" be instructed. "I will" she nodded with a smile.He looked around one last time."If you see anything unusual, let one of the guards know" he said."Definitely" she replied. Without a

  • Dark Possession: Bound To The Mafia Don   Crosshairs

    Fernando's POVThe world exploded into chaos.Glass rained over my shoulders as I dropped beneath the dashboard, my ears ringing from the gunshot that had shattered the passenger-side window.The smell of gunpowder drifted faintly through the broken glass and for one brief moment, neither Mortis nor I spoke."Stay down," I muttered.Mortis was already crouched beneath the steering wheel, his breathing controlled despite the surprise etched across his face."I wasn't expecting that" he said."No," I replied coldly, "I don't imagine you were."He turned sharply toward me."What is that supposed to mean?"I slowly raised my head just enough to look through what remained of the shattered window. Whoever had fired that shot knew exactly what they were doing. I lowered myself again then I looked directly at Mortis."How convenient" I said.His brow furrowed."I don't understand. What are you implying?""You invite me to breakfast, we leave together and the moment we get back into your car,

  • Dark Possession: Bound To The Mafia Don   Secrets Between Us

    Michael's POVFor several long seconds, neither Kim nor I spoke.She stood at the end of the hallway with a glass of water in her hand, staring at me as though she couldn't decide whether she was seeing a ghost or making a terrible mistake.I slowly raised a finger to my lips."Shh..."Her eyebrows lifted in confusion."Michael...?"I took a careful step toward her, making sure the voices from the kitchen remained louder than our own."Please," I whispered. "Don't tell anyone I'm here."Her eyes widened."What?""Just... trust me."She glanced nervously toward the kitchen."You shouldn't be sneaking around. My dad will be furious if he finds out" she said. "I know" I replied. She sighed quietly."You've never had to hide in this house before."Her words struck me harder than I expected. The thought left a bitter taste in my mouth."I won't stay long," I assured her.She looked unconvinced but before either of us could continue, heavy footsteps echoed down the corridor and Kim's eyes

  • Dark Possession: Bound To The Mafia Don   Fluttered Eyes

    Michael’s POV A groan formed somewhere in my chest, but it didn’t make it out. Instead, I drifted between dark and dim, listening helplessly as the two people who cared about me most in the world decided that the safest thing to do was verbally tear each other apart. Fantastic. Listening to them

    Michael's POVAgreeing to listen to Fernando felt less like a decision and more like surrender.Not because I suddenly trusted him again, not because my doubts had magically dissolved, but because every path I had taken to find the truth had ended the same way with doors closing, eyes averting, sil
