The Standoff Shifts

last update 公開日: 2025-04-25 17:12:49

Michael’s POV

The night air had become dense, pressing down on my chest like a weight, but it wasn’t the cold that had my skin crawling.

The very sight of Lucas shifted the balance.

It was clear that he was here to add another layer of pressure, and when I felt Ashley stiffen beside me, I knew that this changed everything.

Andrew’s gaze moved over to Lucas, and for the briefest moment, I see something like frustration flash across his face. But then, like a predator circling its prey, his lip

  • Dark Possession: Bound To The Mafia Don   He Found Us

    Theo’s POVMichael stared at me as though I had suddenly become a stranger, perhaps, in that moment, I was.The gun remained pointed at him, my finger resting carefully along the side of the trigger.I wasn't going to shoot him and judging by the way his eyes remained fixed on the weapon, he was beginning to understand that I wasn't bluffing either.For several seconds, neither of us moved. Henry stood beside Michael, looking between the two of us with confusion and fear written all over his face.Kim was behind them, completely frozen."Dad," she whispered.I didn't look at her. My attention remained on Michael."Sit down" I said for what felt like the hundredth time.Michael swallowed. His eyes flickered toward Henry and that was when I saw the calculation happening behind his eyes.He was considering his options.I knew Michael well enough to understand what he was thinking. He could probably disarm me..If he moved quickly enough, he could close the distance between us, knock the g

  • Dark Possession: Bound To The Mafia Don   Thirty Minutes Too Late

    Fernando’s POVThe moment I stepped out of the car, I knew I was running out of time.Munich Airport stretched before me, enormous and unfamiliar, filled with travelers dragging suitcases, airport employees rushing between terminals, and announcements echoing through the vast building.None of it mattered. I had one thing on my mind and that was to find Michael and Henry.I slammed the car door behind me and immediately started walking."Come on," I muttered.Mortis got out after me."Fernando, wait" he said but I didn't wait.I asked some airport workers if they could tell me the whereabouts to Michael but they were completely clueless. "I don't have time to wait" I said to Mortis eventually. "You need to think" he insisted. "I've been thinking for the last hour" I replied then turned toward him. "And every second I've spent thinking is another second Theo has had to disappear with them."Mortis sighed."Running around asking random airport workers isn't going to make them appear"

  • Dark Possession: Bound To The Mafia Don   Pointed Gun

    Theo’s POVI had expected Michael to fight me, perhaps not this violently, but I had expected it.The moment I saw his fingers close around the guard's weapon, I knew the calm conversation I had imagined was no longer possible.Michael stood several feet away from me, breathing heavily, his eyes burning with anger as he held the gun firmly in his hand.The weapon was pointed toward my guards, but I knew that if he became desperate enough, he could turn it toward me."You're making this more difficult than it needs to be" I said.Michael laughed bitterly."You've been saying that since you drugged me" he replied. "I'm trying to give you a better life" I said."I don't want the life you're giving me" he replied. "You don't know what you're saying right now" I insisted. "I know exactly what I'm saying" he argued then pointed the gun slightly toward me. "I want to go home.""You want to go back to all that chaos or just back to Fernando?" I asked.Michael hesitated, only for a moment,

  • Dark Possession: Bound To The Mafia Don   No More Running

    Michael’s POVThe first thing I heard was the low, powerful hum of an engine. It vibrated through the floor beneath me, through the seat against my back, and somehow through my entire body.For several seconds, I couldn't remember where I was. I blinked slowly and my head felt heavy. My mouth was dry, and there was an unpleasant pressure behind my eyes.I tried to move, but my body felt strangely weak then I remembered everything. My eyes widened."Henry."I immediately looked beside me and Henry was there, still unconscious. His head rested against the seat, his face peaceful despite everything that had happened.I reached for him and pulled him closer. I gently shook his shoulder."Henry, wake up" I said but nothing happened and Fear crawled through my chest.I checked his breathing and he was breathing normally.Thank God.I held him tighter then I felt the aircraft tilt slightly as the engine changed pitch.We were landing.I looked toward the window and clouds were disappearing

  • Dark Possession: Bound To The Mafia Don   Finding the Destination

    Fernando’s POVI knew Roberto was going to shoot me, I saw it in his eyes. There was no hesitation left in him, no uncertainty, no fear.Only determination.He had made peace with the possibility of dying for Theo and somehow, that angered me more than the gun pointed at my chest."Roberto," I said quietly. "Think about what you're doing."His grip tightened around the weapon."I have thought about it" he said.I scoffed then Roberto's jaw clenched."You know this is all your fault" he said.I stared at him."Me?""Yes."His voice trembled with anger."You came back into Michael's life, and everything fell apart."I almost laughed."Everything fell apart because Theo couldn't accept that Michael is capable of making his own choices" I replied. "You're not innocent either" he said."I never said I was" I said then pointed my own gun at him.Mortis stepped between us."Enough."Neither of us listened then Mortis looked around nervously."Both of you, lower your weapons" he said.Robert

  • Dark Possession: Bound To The Mafia Don   The One Who Stayed Behind

    Fernando’s POVThe jet disappeared beyond the clouds, but I couldn't move. I stood there staring at the empty stretch of sky as though the aircraft might suddenly turn around and come back.Michael was gone, Henry was gone and Theo had taken them.My breathing became heavier."I need to know where they're going" I said."We'll find out" Mortis reassured me.I turned sharply toward the airport building."I need the destination now" I said.Mortis followed."Don Fernando, don't do anything stupid" he warned but I ignored him.We rushed into the terminal, and I immediately approached the nearest airport employee behind the counter."You."The young man looked up nervously."Sir?""What destination is that private jet that just departed headed?" I asked. He blinked."I'm sorry, sir. I don't have that information" he said.My jaw tightened."Why?""Private flight information is confidential" he answered. I leaned across the counter."My husband and my son are on that aircraft" I pleaded.

  • Dark Possession: Bound To The Mafia Don   The Weight of Unspoken Words

    Michael’s POV The events of mere moments ago came rushing back, particularly the kiss. Fernando’s kiss. My stomach twisted and clenched. My lips still tingled where his had pressed too tightly, too desperately.I slid out of bed with a groan, walked across the cool marble floor of my guest room

    Fernando's POVMy fingers still tingled.I stared at my hand as I stepped out of the room I had just left Michael in—my palm still carrying the memory of his skin, of the way I had squeezed his throat. My heart pounded in my chest, and not from exertion. From something darker, something wilder. T

    Michael's POVBefore I could get a word out, Ashley grabbed my arm and pulled me with a force that startled me. Her grip was strong, frantic even, as if she were trying to physically pull me away from the chaos I had willingly walked into."Ashley! What are you—""We need to leave. Now!" she snapp
