Chapter 111 - Tides Of War

Auteur: Ms.O The Writer
last update Dernière mise à jour: 2025-10-07 19:28:07

The city no longer slept, every street, every alley, every shadow hummed with tension. Sirens were becoming the city’s lullaby, and the smell of smoke clung to the air like perfume.

From the penthouse, the skyline looked like it was holding its breath, neon lights pulsing faintly against a backdrop of unease. Raven stood by the window, arms crossed over her chest, wearing one of Jaxon’s shirts. Below, headlights streamed along wet asphalt like veins pumping blood through a wounded beast.

Jaxon sat behind her at the glass desk, shirtless, a map of the city spread before him. His scars caught the low light, pale lines of history written across muscle. His phone buzzed every few minutes, each vibration another piece of bad news.

“Another explosion,” Viktor said over speakerphone. “Zane’s crew hit one of our shipment trucks on the Eastside. No survivors.”

Jaxon’s hand stilled on the desk. He didn’t curse. He didn’t throw the phone. He just exhaled once, long and sharp. “Clean it up. No co

  • Owned By The Don    Chapter 135 - She Said Complications

    The villa’s flames clawed at the night, smoke spiraling into the sky like black banners of war. The structure, once a monument to Evelyn’s meticulous control, now crumbled into chaos. Jaxon and Raven remained at the edge of the gravel drive, silhouettes against the glow of fire and ash.“She’s alive,” Jaxon muttered, his jaw tight, eyes fixed on the collapsing villa. “She always survives.”Raven’s hand closed around the drive in her coat pocket. “Then we make sure this time she doesn’t.”A sharp vibration cut through the tense night air. Raven’s phone. An encrypted call flashed across the screen.“Evelyn,” she whispered.Jaxon’s eyes darkened, and he leaned closer. “Take it.”Raven swiped to answer. Evelyn’s voice slithered through the speaker, silken, smooth, yet laced with menace.“Well, well… my sons and the whore,” Evelyn purred. “Did you enjoy my little fireworks show?”Jaxon’s expression remained unreadable, his hands clenched at his sides.“I trust you realize the villa was a d

  • Owned By The Don    Chapter 134 - Just Die

    The city hadn’t slept, but it pretended to.Under its quiet skin, deals were being rewritten, loyalties rearranged, and bloodlines prepared for sacrifice.In the dim light of dawn, Jaxon stood in his penthouse office at the Morreau tower, phone pressed to his ear. The skyline glimmered beyond him, gold spilling through the fractured glass of a war that hadn’t yet ended.“Matteo, confirm the intel.”Static hissed briefly before the man’s voice came through. “Intercepted three coded transmissions. Evelyn initiated a meeting with Zane. Private estate in the Hamptons. Restricted clearance, full lockdown protocols. The kind she used for succession hearings.”Jaxon’s jaw flexed. “She’s moving early.”“Or scared,” Matteo replied. “You burned half her empire last night. She’s cutting her losses.”“Not losses,” Jaxon muttered. “Liabilities.”He ended the call and turned toward Raven. She sat on the edge of his desk, her hair unbound, eyes shadowed from a night without rest. The screens behind

  • Owned By The Don    Chapter 133 - I'll Be Damned

    The city breathed differently that night.A low hum of electricity vibrated through the underbelly of New York, signals, encrypted codes, and orders hidden beneath the noise of normal life. For weeks, quiet movements had replaced open warfare. Now, those movements converged.A small newsroom on the Upper East Side glowed with the dim light of a single monitor. The journalist typing inside believed she was communicating with a source named Raye Kincaid. She was absolutely clueless as to who Raye Kincaid really was. The data came in waves, offshore ledgers, shipment manifests, transaction histories spanning three continents. Evelyn Morreau’s name appeared like a curse in the fine print, buried behind shell companies and aliases, now dragged into the light.Each file uploaded triggered a ripple across the digital map: hidden accounts froze, holding companies halted, funds locked in international limbo. The leak spread through secure channels, reaching regulators, watchdogs, and eventual

  • Owned By The Don    Chapter 132 - Eating Each Other Alive

    The snow hadn’t stopped falling, though it carried ash now, fine gray dust from the burning docks that clung to the air like memory. The warehouse still hissed and cracked behind them, fire eating through metal, but Jaxon’s focus was locked on the faint noise ahead, a groan, ragged and human.He moved first, weapon raised, every line of his body sharp with readiness. Raven followed, the wind clawing at her coat, heartbeat hammering against her ribs. The sound came again, closer this time, from behind a half-collapsed freight container.“Matteo!” Jaxon’s voice cut through the static air.A muffled cough answered. Then a shape lurched into view, Matteo, blood streaking down the side of his face, one arm slung around Viktor’s shoulders. Both were limping, half-burned, half-frozen, but alive.“Don…” Matteo rasped, voice shaking. “We thought...”“Save it,” Jaxon said, lowering his gun, his tone edged with controlled relief. “You’re late.”Viktor managed a broken laugh. “We were… invited to

  • Owned By The Don    Chapter 131 - Struck A Nerve

    The world outside Geneva burned quietly, as if the city itself was trying to hide the war crawling under its skin. Snowflakes fell through the smoke, catching on broken glass and twisted steel. The explosion at the Morreau Foundation had made the headlines, all but the truth, the bodies, the betrayal, was already buried beneath money and silence.Inside the safehouse, Raven’s reflection trembled in the windowpane. Her hair was still streaked with ash, her hands faintly shaking. She could taste the acrid bite of cordite and lies on her tongue. Behind her, Jaxon moved through the dim light like a shadow still learning how to be human again.He’d stripped out of his blood-streaked suit, trading it for black cargo and the gun he never set down. The wound on his shoulder was reopened, a dark bloom under the bandage, but he didn’t slow. Men like him didn’t bleed, they calculated.Matteo and Viktor had left an hour ago to track their remaining contacts in Zurich. Now it was just the two of t

  • Owned By The Don    Chapter 130 - End Her My Son

    The city looked cleaner than it should after so much death. Glass towers stood untouched, the harbor calm again, as if the sea hadn’t burned red hours ago.From the penthouse window, Raven stared at the skyline, a lie dressed in gold light. The world below didn’t know how close it had come to ruin. Smoke still clung to her hair, the scent of fire and fear buried in her skin.Behind her, Jaxon peeled off his bloodstained shirt and dropped it onto the marble. His muscles were corded tight, movements sharp, deliberate. The bandage across his shoulder glowed white against his skin. He looked like a fallen god, wounded, furious, untouchable.Raven leaned against the glass, voice low. “We made it back, but it doesn’t feel like surviving.”Jaxon poured whiskey into a crystal glass, ignoring the tremor in his hand. “Survival isn’t supposed to feel good.”She turned toward him. “You’re bleeding through your bandage.”He glanced down, smirked faintly. “So are you.”Her lips curved. “Mine’s not
