Possessed by the Devil Chapter 113
TamaraI didn’t expect the room to smell like antiseptic and old coffee. Leon’s private ward was quiet in the way a place is when it knows it’s supposed to be safe. Two days had crawled by and now I sat on the little vinyl chair by Jasper’s bed, my face probably a mess from crying, and Jasper was awake and staring at me with those stupid puppy eyes he always used when he wanted forgiveness.He looked small. God, he looked small. His face was still puffy, a bruise on his cheek, but his voice was softer than I’d heard it in months.“Tam,” he said, and I could tell he was trying to sound steady. “I’m— I’m sorry. For everything. For that night, for bringing you into his world. For being an idiot.”I blinked at him hard. “Jasper, stop. Don’t—”“No,” he insisted. “I almost lost you. I nearly got you killed. I don’t— I can’t keep doing this. Please forgive me.”My throat felt heavy. Forgiveness is a weird thing. It crawls slowly. But he was my brother. He had that stupid look that made me wa

LeonThe cold hit me first. Sea air, diesel, the kind of wet that gets under your jacket. The warehouse smelled like rust and damp wood and the place someone leaves something to rot. I felt it in my lungs and knew we were where Thiago wanted us.He had the barrel of his gun pressed into Tamara’s back when they dragged me in. Two of his men had my arms, one on each side, hauling me past crates and puddles. My boots scraped concrete. Thiago kept her in front of him, the muzzle at the side of her head like a threat carved into the air.“Move,” he said.We were feet from the water. The shed was wide open on the dock side; you could see the dark strip of the sea and the ships leaning against the night. It was close enough to smell the salt and feel the wind. The light was a single swinging bulb and everything in it looked harder.He shoved Tamara toward the corner and kept that gun on her. She stumbled, trying to catch herself, whispering something I couldn’t make out. Her wrists had rope

LeonThe video started and I saw them before the sound caught up. Tamara on her knees, hands tied behind her, dress ripped at the shoulder, face wet with tears. Jasper slumped in a cheap chair, his lip split, bruises swelling. Thiago stood behind them with a gun like he’d posed it in for effect.He spoke to the camera like he was reading terms. “Bring the ledger, Leon. Bring it alone. Midnight. You bring it, you take her. You don’t, you watch them die.”Then he held his phone to show Tamara and the video cut.I set the phone face down on the desk and walked to the safe. I didn’t want to think. My hands did the work. The ledger had been in the safe because that’s where I kept the paper that mattered. It wasn’t a diary or receipts. It was everything — names, dates, amounts, shell companies, wire references, code names, phone numbers tied to accounts. There were full ledgers for every major move I’d ever tracked, and for every family that trusted the book more than a man. It handed power

TamaraJasper came in like a storm had just passed through him. The door banged so hard the picture on the wall jumped. He didn’t call my name, didn’t laugh like he usually did when he was trying to hide something. He just stood in the hallway and leaned on the frame, breathing like he’d been running.I set the kettle down slowly, the clink of metal louder than it should have been. I could see the bruise spreading on his cheek from where I stood. It was ugly and dark and I felt my stomach drop to my knees for him before I could even move.“Jas?” I said. My voice sounded small in the kitchen.He closed his eyes and rubbed the back of his neck. “I’m okay,” he said. Thin. The kind of voice that tells you it’s not true. He shuffled toward me and then stopped, like he didn’t have the right to be close. I wanted to smack him for that.I wrapped my hands around a cloth and went to him. I cleaned his face the way I always did when he came back with cuts and bruises, gentle, because I wanted h

LeonThe door hit the frame before I had time to stand. He shouldered Jasper through and the kid hit the floor like someone who finally realized the ground didn’t owe him a thing. Men in the room went quiet because that’s what you do when someone brings trouble to your table. I watched Jasper try to suck air in like he could breathe his way out of what he’d done. He couldn’t.Sean planted him in the chair, one hand on the back of his neck like he was keeping a leash tight. Jasper’s eyes were red, sprinting all over the room, looking for an exit that didn’t exist. I let him look. Let him think maybe he’d find mercy in the angles of my face. He wouldn’t.“You saw fit to cause trouble,” I said, slowly, my voice even. I didn’t move from behind the desk. I didn’t need to. The room told him everything before my mouth did.“He started it,” Jasper said, quick, angry. “Thiago told be my sister was being brainwashed. You were using and risking my sister's life, I had to act. I did what I had t

LeonThe warehouse always smelled like old fights, oil, sweat, dust that never left the floorboards. We left the lights low on purpose; shadows helped with the paperwork of fear. Men were spread out in the corners, backs to the walls, hands on belts. I had Sean beside me like I always did. He didn’t move unless I said so. That steadied the room more than my words could.The guy was tied to a chair under a single bulb that swung when the door shut. He wasn’t a looker…pale, nervous, a face you forget. He tried to look like he was used to trouble and that it didn’t bother him. It didn’t take long to see the lie. His shirt was damp at the collar, throat working like he had a bird caught in it.“Boss,” Sean said once, like a cue. I nodded. He stepped back and let me take the air.I walked slowly because fast moves scare men into saying the wrong things. The bulb hummed. My boots made that same dull thud I liked to hear when I was thinking. I didn’t bring a cigarette in; I wanted the room t
