Michael’s POV

I stopped counting the hours after it started feeling it was going slowly.

The light slipping through the curtains had already changed color twice and I was tired.

Not just tired of the confinement, but of the storm inside me. The anger, the hurt, the endless loop of questions that had no answers.

The room smelled faintly of him, that intoxicating mix that still clung to the sheets.

I ran my fingers across the spine of one of the books stacked on the shelf. A habit, I guess, some

  • Dark Possession: Bound To The Mafia Don   Sudden Invitation

    Fernando's POVNick was looking at me as though I were a loaded gun that could go off at any second. Perhaps he wasn't entirely wrong.I held his gaze for another few moments before turning away.There was no point continuing the conversation. Nick had already made up his mind about me, just as I had made up mine.Nothing either of us said now would change that.I had barely taken two steps when I heard another voice."What's going on here?"I looked up to see Ashley walking into the hallway with her arms folded, her eyes moving suspiciously between Nick and me.She had clearly sensed the tension before either of us had spoken.Nick straightened immediately."It's nothing" he replied. Ashley raised an eyebrow."Really?"Neither of us answered then she looked from me to Nick again."You two looked like you were about to kill each other" she pointed out.I chuckled lightly."That's a bit dramatic" I said.She gave me an unimpressed look."With you? It really isn't" she shot at me.She

  • Dark Possession: Bound To The Mafia Don   Truth I Couldn't Hide

    Michael's POVTheo's voice still echoed through the room."Sit down!"I stood there for several long seconds, unable to believe what had just happened. He had never spoken to me like that before, not once.We have definitely had moments where we were angry at each other and had shouted at the other, but there was something about the way he spoke this time that was very different from those other times.The silence between us grew heavier with every passing moment. Theo stared at me, and I could tell from the regret in his eyes that he hadn't meant to lose his temper but that didn't erase what had happened.I slowly straightened my posture."Theo, I don't appreciate being spoken to like that" I said, my voice was calm.He swallowed hard. He absolutely knew how much I hated being yelled at and for him to do the same thing was disheartening. "Michael..."I lifted a hand, stopping him before he could continue."I came here because I was worried" I said. He attempted to sah something, pos

  • Dark Possession: Bound To The Mafia Don   Whatever It Takes

    Fernando's POVThe moment I stepped out of Henry's room, I quietly closed the door behind me and rested my hand against the wooden surface for a second.A smile tugged at the corner of my lips.It wasn't a complete victory, not yet but it was progress.For the first time since I'd returned to this town, my son hadn't looked at me with nothing but resentment. He had let me into his room, he had spoken to me and he had even admitted that he wanted us to be a family again.That alone was enough to make my chest feel lighter.I walked slowly down the hallway, replaying every word of our conversation.For years, I had convinced myself that Henry hated me.How could he not? I had disappeared from his life. Michael had been the one who raised him.Michael had been there for birthdays, scraped knees, school events, sleepless nights and every milestone I had missed. I had no right to expect Henry to welcome me with open arms.And yet, something had shifted. I could feel it.There was finally a

  • Dark Possession: Bound To The Mafia Don   Loud Voice

    Theo's POVI didn't want to see Michael, not after what I'd watched. Not after those cursed hidden cameras had shown me exactly what I never wanted to witness.Every time I closed my eyes, I saw them together.Fernando's hands on Michael, Michael kissing him back, not resisting, not pulling away. Kissing him as though years of separation had never existed.Hearing Michael's moans as Fernando drove his dick inside him.It replayed over and over in my mind like a punishment and I clenched my jaw."No..he manipulated you" I muttered to myself.That had to be the truth.Fernando had always known how to get inside Michael's head. How to make him doubt himself, how to make him forget the pain he had caused.Michael wouldn't willingly betray me, he couldn't.The Fernando I knew was calculating, manipulative, patient. He had probably waited for the perfect moment when Michael felt vulnerable.That was the only explanation I was willing to accept because the alternative meant Michael had chose

  • Dark Possession: Bound To The Mafia Don   Suspicious Glare

    Michael's POVI stood in the kitchen for several moments after Fernando disappeared upstairs.The frying pan hissed quietly on the stove, filling the room with the comforting smell of bacon and eggs, yet my attention wasn't on breakfast anymore.It was on Henry. I couldn't shake the image of his face when he had walked through the front door.His eyes had looked tired, not physically, emotionally. I would know because I saw that same expression on mine whenever I looked in the mirror recently. Something had happened last night. Something he wasn't ready to tell me.Ashley noticed me staring absent-mindedly at the stove and gently nudged my shoulder."You're burning the bacon" she said."What?"I blinked before quickly looking down. Sure enough, the edges were beginning to darken.I sighed and turned the heat down and Ashley folded her arms."Are you're worried about Henry?" She asked calmly. I nodded."He wasn't himself and he snapped at me" I answered, my eyes moving from the bacon

  • Dark Possession: Bound To The Mafia Don   An Unexpected Change

    Fernando's POVI watched Henry disappear upstairs, and something about the way he carried himself unsettled me.He hadn't looked angry, not exactly. He had looked... burdened, like someone carrying a weight far too heavy for his shoulders.I glanced toward the kitchen.Michael was still standing there with Ashley, worry written all over his face. I knew that expression better than anyone. He wanted to follow Henry, but he also knew pushing him would only make things worse.Which left me.Maybe I wasn't the best person for the job, actually, I was probably the worst. Still, he was my son.Whether he accepted me or not, I couldn't ignore the look on his face.I climbed the stairs slowly, each step echoed through the quiet house. When I reached Henry's door, I knocked gently but silence answered me.I waited a few seconds before knocking again."Henry? It's me" I called.Still nothing.I rested one hand against the door."I just want to talk" I said.His voice finally came from the other

  • Dark Possession: Bound To The Mafia Don   The Hunt Begins

    Fernando’s POVThe bold red letters of the “CLOSED” sign glared at me through the glass of Kafé Verse’s front door, taunting me like a slap in the face. My heart slammed into my ribs as I stood frozen on the dark sidewalk, every breath turning ragged in my chest.No lights inside. No movement. The

  • 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

  • Dark Possession: Bound To The Mafia Don   Blood and Revelation

    Fernando’s POV I stood over the bodies all over the cracked concrete floor of the abandoned building, the stench of gunpowder still heavy in the air. I knelt beside Rachel as I watched as her breaths came in ragged, shallow gasps, each one a painful sound as blood poured from the wound in her sid

    Michael’s POV Fernando’s eyes locked on me, and for a heartbeat, the entire world seemed to hold its breath. His gaze flicked from me down to Henry, then back again, wide with something I hadn’t seen on him before—shock. The kind that looked like he had seen a ghost.“Michael,” Fernando said, hi
