Days had passed since Rico’s confrontation with his mother, but the house still felt like it was holding its breath.

Donna Marta had barely come out of her room. The doors remained shut most of the time, and the few times she stepped out, it was brief and quiet, like she didn’t want to be seen. She would skip breakfast... or at least only eat once Rico wasn't around.

The woman who once moved through the house with quiet authority now seemed… smaller.

Rico never asked about her. He moved like no

  • His To Possess    Chapter 201: A Threat To Her

    Calla slipped out of the bathroom. White robe neatly tied around her waist. She let her damp hair dangle from each side of her shoulders, tiny beads of water dripping from the curls, falling onto the ground.She glanced at the large clock on the way and sighed. It's a few minutes past seven in the evening and Rico isn't back yet. She just had dinner with Sophia and was back in her room. Donna Marta, as usual, had dinner in her room.Calla's hand came up to wipe off water that trailed down her cheeks. She glanced at her phone that sat on the bedside table. The content of those messages still stayed fresh and haunting in her mind. How was he able to message her? She had changed her number months ago.She sighed and sat on the dresser, phone in her hand. She kept glancing over the words of the message. Suddenly, the door pushed open and Calla shivered. Her head whipped to the door, and she saw Rico come in. She jumped to her feet, hiding her phone behind her back.Rico paused for a se

She would skip breakfast... or at least only eat once Rico wasn't around.The woman who once moved through the house with quiet authority now seemed… smaller.Rico never asked about her. He moved like nothing had changed, like that conversation hadn’t cracked something open between them. He spent most of his time out during the day, leaving early, coming back late, already dressed in work before anyone could even suggest rest. The wound on his shoulder was still healing, and Calla had tried—more than once—to make him slow down, to at least give his body time to catch up with everything he had put it through.But Rico was stubborn. And when he decided to keep moving, nothing stopped him.Still…

  • His To Possess    Chapter 199: Thinking Harder & Moving Faster

    Rico pulled into the rocky driveway at the old building meant for I Sette meetings. He turned off the engine and came out of the car, adjusting the collar of his deep gray jacket.Two days have passed since the talk he had with his mother. And in those days, he was summoned by the council members.They debated about making him Don after what happened. They want him to take responsibility for the damage caused at the ceremony. According to them, the violent act displayed could have been avoided. And that Rico made things blow out of proportion by coming there unannounced.Rico still laughs whenever he remembers how they twisted the whole thing. The way they laid out all that transpired that night, the tone of their voice, and their hardened gaze on him.They didn't need to say it, but he knew they were taking Marco's side, again.Too bad Rico doesn’t care for approval. He is already operating like a leader in practice, not title.And speaking of Marco, he is nowhere to be found. After

    They were in Donna Marta's study room. The tension in there was scary, mostly coming from Rico. Calla held her breath, waiting for someone to say something. Anyone.Rico stood near the center of the room, his expression was unreadable. He refused to sit. Calla remained a few steps away, she stayed quiet and still, sensing this was not a moment to interrupt.Rico had agreed to speak with his mother, only if Calla was with him. A warm smile appeared on her face when he asked her. She didn't hesitate, knowing he needed her for support.He might be strong and fearless to those outside, but he's still very much human. Someone who feels physical and emotional pain.Donna Marta sat in her chair, one hand resting on the armrest, the other clutching her shawl tightly around her shoulders. For once, the woman who always carried herself with confidence looked smaller.“Why?” Rico was the first to speak. The single word cut through the room.Donna Marta lifted her eyes slowly. “Why what?”Rico h

    Rico watched as his mother placed food into his plate. Not once, but many times, she had a wide smile on her face as she did."I know how much you love creamy Spaghetti alla Carbonara. So I had the chef make it for you," Donna Marta said, twirling the fork into the bowl of spaghetti, and putting it into his plate.She didn't look at Rico. Didn't sense the shift in his expression. All that mattered to her at that moment was making sure Rico was cared for. Had her attention."You were such a glutton when you were much younger," she continued, adding more spaghetti into the plate, laughing lightly. "We had to hire Nonna Luisa when you were a teenager to cook a meal specially for you."Rico's jaw hardened more, his shoulder tensing. He didn't know his fist was clenched tightly, until he felt a soft hand over his.His gaze pulled away from his plate, blinking multiple times as they dropped to the Calla's hands on his fist. He paused, then turned to her.Calla had a look so soft it slowly m

    Calla had said those three words. Hearing it come out of her mouth felt strange in a good way though.She held her breath, watching Rico to see his reaction.Rico just stared at her. Like he was holding onto the words carefully, afraid they might disappear if he blinked wrong.Then the corner of his mouth lifted slightly, something lighter passing through his tired expression.For a moment, nothing else happened. Not because there was nothing to say, but because neither of them rushed to fill the silence.Calla raised her hand after long minutes of staring at each other, her fingers brushed lightly through his hair again, more absent this time, like she didn’t even notice she was doing it anymore.“Are you tired?” she asked softly.“Mm," he murmured."Then you should sleep." She attempted to stand up from his lap, but he held her firm.“I’d rather stare at you," he uttered with a teasing smile.“You’re concussed,” she muttered, rolling her eyes, but there was no real firmness in it an

    "I didn't know I would come here without being summoned either," Calla murmured, finally finding her words, surprised that it didn't come out cracked. She shivered with fear on the inside, and her eyes avoided his.She watched as Rico cocked his head to the side, his hollowed dark eyes scanning her

    Maybe she heard wrong. Perhaps the hangover from last night had fried her brain. Maybe she drank too much with Luxe at the bar, and now she was hearing things. Maybe she’d passed out somewhere, and this was just one of those twisted dreams her mind liked to play on her.Yeah, that had to be it.A n

    The drive to the port was quiet. The only sounds were the low hum of the engine and the ticking of Rico’s watch. His jaw was tight the whole ride. The call had been short and sharp—another shipment hit. The first happened weeks ago when he was with Calla. He got that call and had to leave.This bei

    Calla sat alone in the dining room, digesting what had just happened, when the elderly housekeeper walked in with grocery bags in her hands.The woman had a warm smile on her face. "Oh tesoro," she said. Calla quickly stood up to help her with the bags."You kind, thank you."She followed the elder
