Dark Possession: Bound To The Mafia Don The Music Holds Its Breath
Fernando’s POVI had already dressed twice. Now, standing still before the full-length mirror, I adjusted my cufflinks for the third time.They were flawless silver, engraved, and custom-made. The suit fit me like it had been sewn directly onto my body. It didn’t restrict my movement, but it reminded me of who I was, what I carried and what I ruled.I straightened my jacket one final time and turned away from the mirror just as a knock echoed through the room. “Come in,” I said.The door opened, and Marlo stepped inside.He was already dressed as well, dark suit, immaculate lines, his posture straight and alert.Marlo had seen me at my worst and that made him invaluable.“You’re early,” he said, glancing briefly at the clock on the wall.“I don’t intend to be late to my own wedding,” I replied calmly.He huffed out a quiet breath. “You’ve checked the time six times in the last ten minutes.”“I like knowing where I stand.”His eyes flicked to me. “You like controlling where everyth
Dark Possession: Bound To The Mafia Don Before the door opens
Michael’s POVI almost didn’t recognize myself. I stared at my reflection like it belonged to a stranger.The man staring back wore a tailored black suit that hugged his shoulders perfectly. The white shirt beneath was crisp, the cufflinks gleaming softly under the warm light. My hair had been styled carefully, every strand placed with intention.Fernando never tolerated imperfection and yet, no matter how flawless the image appeared, I felt like I was splintering apart from the inside.My chest felt too tight, like the air in the room had thickened. My heartbeat was loud, too loud, thudding in my ears in a frantic rhythm that refused to calm.This was happening tonight. I was about to marry Fernando.The words echoed in my head, heavy and unreal, as though saying them enough times might make them settle but they didn’t. My gaze drifted to the dresser and i saw my phone there, face down.I reached for it instinctively then froze halfway. My fingers hovered inches above the screen, tr
Dark Possession: Bound To The Mafia Don Favors
Fernando’s POVI stood exactly where Michael had left me.The door was still swinging slightly when it finally stilled, like it too needed a moment to accept what had just happened. I watched it as if it might reopen, as if Michael might come back with fire in his eyes and finally demand the answers I had spent all this time burying.He didn’t, he simply obeyed and the realisation brought a slow smile on my face.I exhaled, rolling my shoulders, feeling the tension settle into something far more familiar that I could control.The first part of the storm had passed and now what was left was the storm's best friend who always found ways to put her nose in matters that were of no concern to her.I had expected Ashley to be the first storm at my door.She had always been the brave one when it came to Michael. She didn’t hesitate to act like his shield or his spokesperson. The person who said the things Michael swallowed down and turned into sleepless nights. I had thought that If anyon
Dark Possession: Bound To The Mafia Don The Hour That Would Not Wait
Fernando's POVI adjusted the cuff of my shirt and lifted my eyes to the mirror again for the one hundredth time.It was just one hour left and my life would change into something much better.I had faced death without flinching, I had signed orders that wiped entire bloodlines off the map, I had buried men who begged me to spare them and slept soundly afterward, yet my reflection tonight looked different.I would dare say i looked happier. I definitely did.The corners of my mouth curved upward without effort, and my eyes that had made grown men tremble were warm, almost boyish. I barely recognized myself. I hadn’t felt like this literally all my life.I exhaled slowly and stared at myself as numerous thoughts swelled in my head.Tonight, Michael would be my husband and he would belong to me forever.The suit laid out behind me was black and perfectly tailored, understated elegance instead of doing too much. I wanted nothing loud tonight, nothing to distract from him from us.I rea
Dark Possession: Bound To The Mafia Don Fernando’s Irrational Decision
Michael's POVHenry tugged on my sleeve like his life depended on it.“Michael,” he whined softly, dragging out my name the way only a child who was very hungry could. “I want a snack.”I looked down at him and sighed, though there was no real frustration in it. If anything, Henry asking for food was one of the few things that still felt normal around here.“A snack?” I asked. “Didn’t you just eat?”“That was a long time ago,” he said seriously.I checked my watch out of habit and saw it was only twenty minutes.“Sure,” I said, rubbing his hair. “Let’s go rob the kitchen before Fernando’s men eat everything.”Henry grinned and grabbed my hand, pulling me down the hallway.The safe house had changed in the past few days. It wasn’t just the flowers or the candles or the men moving around with purpose instead of guns in their hands, it was the energy, like the walls themselves knew something big was coming.A wedding.I still hadn’t fully processed that word.As we walked, my thoughts dr
Dark Possession: Bound To The Mafia Don Joy
Fernando's POVI left Michael’s room with a ridiculous smile on my face.It was much more than the usual one I had whenever I left him.Not the controlled, calculated smile I wore in meetings. Not the cold curve of my mouth that made men lower their eyes and women stiffen with fear.This one was real. It stretched my cheeks until they almost hurt, and I didn’t even bother to hide it.Michael was okay.He was not fragile, not distant, and not withdrawn into that quiet place he went to when his mind became too loud for the world to bear.He had looked beautiful, devastatingly so, and more importantly, he had laughed with me, teased me, kissed me and pushed me away with that familiar fire in his eyes and told me to wait, to save it for our wedding night.Just thinking about it made my chest swell.We had had sex several times but just the thought of how different it would feel as a married couple was enough to make my body tingle with joy.I walked down the corridor like a man who had al
