The Deadly Obsession Chapter 20
Sophia's POV:“Elena!” I yelled, but no one answered.“Jasmine!” Continued. “Or whatever you guys are..”I didn't know who was who, but I needed them now.Where the hell were they? Bloody maids. They knew nothing but to be idle. I slowly stood, and three maids rushed in, with their heads bowed.Their hands folded in front of them like obedient lambs. I was sick of staring at their pitiful sight. They made me sick.They were slow, useless and boring.“What the hell took you so long?” I asked.They kept quiet, and it only made my anger boil even more. I silently counted to ten and got calmer. I did another ten before I spoke. “Get me a phone.”They raised their gaze at the same time, and exchanged nervous, shifting uncomfortably.“Are you deaf?” I asked, watching them. “I need a phone. Get me one.”“Um, do you mean your phone, Miss or…?” One of the maids asked hesitantly.I rolled my eyes, wondering where their senses went? “Obviously not, you idiots. Mine's ruined,” I said, looking at

Sophia’s POVAlessia looked aghast, her mouth opened wide, her eyes brimming with astonishment. She stepped back slowly, her hands clenched by her side."Fiancée?" she whispered, surprised. Her voice was almost inaudible.I smiled smugly while turning my diamond ring on my finger, that low light made it shine. "Of course, darling. And I do not like indeed when girls like you come and nuzzle around my man."Her throat bobbed with emotion as she swallowed. "I…I didn't know.""Oh yes, you did," I answered and cocked my head at her. I took a step closer, frightening her. "Now, I really don't care how innocent you think you are. Girls like you?"I laughed, leaning close enough to see her flinch. "Y'all love to play the victim card. Act all weak and helpless while men fall at your feet. But I see through that little act."Her breath was shallow, but she held her silence. Wise girl. She knew how to read the room.I dragged my painted nails on the couch in frustration. My anger got the best o

POV:That hesitation was almost indiscernible from her. But almost. Then she stepped back, hypothetically folded her hands in her lap, and sat right in front of me, looking just like the woman who was trying to appear calm while the exact opposite was true.Lengthen the silence, and just look her in the eye. Wait.Just when she opened her mouth to speak, I spoke."How strange," I mused, and swirled the wine in my glass yet again. "Today I heard something interesting."She blinked, "Oh?"I nodded. "Someone was spotted- a certain someone- somewhere he/she shouldn't have been."I was not mentioning any names; there was no need.The fingers of Sophia were twitching against the table.Perfect. You're buying it."Someone?" she asked cautiously."Indeed." I took another sip and studied her closely. "Someone who ought not to have been anywhere near the city; someone who was to be...relocated."Her face suddenly drained of all color.I leaned, and zipped in. "But I guess he or she wasn't moved

Dominic’s POVSophia was barely aware of the door slamming behind her. Her anger, her jealousy. It was all just noise. I stood in the bathroom, hands anchored on either side of the sink, heart rate even, despite the bluster she’d tried to set off. It looked back at me in the mirror. My reflection was sharp, and unreadable. A slow exhale escaped me.This was getting out of hand.I took a towel, dried off the stray droplets of water from my face, and left the bathroom. The bedroom was empty now, and the silence in it was nearly stifling. But Sophia was no longer on my mind.It was Alessia.That woman was beginning to try me.I fastened my shirt, crisp fabric doing little to help my body uncoil. Something about how she had been behaving weird and was starting to get under my skin.Alessia had always resisted me, but this… this was different.She was slipping away.And that just wasn’t going to happen.When I emerged from the room, Matteo was already waiting downstairs, phone in hand, e

Dominic's POVAlessia thought she could leave me behind. She was wrong.My patience broke the instant she charged toward the door. Three steps were all it took to cover the distance, and I caught her wrist before she could grasp the handle. She stiffened, her pulse thundering under my hand.“Let go of me, Dominic,” she whispered, defiance dripping from her words.I gripped a little harder, enough to remind her who was in charge. "You're not going anywhere, until I say so."Her emerald eyes burned with rage, but there was something else there, she fought to conceal.“I don’t have anything to talk with you.” She pulled her arm, but I wouldn’t let go.“You think you can walk away?” I hissed, my voice low and laced with peril. "After everything?"The breath in her was a tight swallow. "Yes. I have no reason to stay."Those were lies.I pressed her against the door, invading her space. "Say it again," I challenged.She lifted her chin. "I don't want this anymore."I chuckled darkly. "Then

Dominic POVAlessia shifted beside me, her bare skin heated against my own. The delicate light from the lamp on the nightstand painted golden lines through her hair, making her look more fragile and untroubled.But my mind refused to rest.As soon as I closed my eyes, I remembered her outburst before we made love and Sophia's attitude when she came to the mansion.I felt it in my gut that Sophia must be into Alessia by now. And Alessia wasn't saying anything. She was either covering for someone or something else. And I needed to know who.I swiftly got out of bed, moving at the slowest speed possible. The sheets rustled, and I froze as she moved, her brow crinkling.“Dominic?” Her voice was a whisper, thick with sleep.I took a deep breath and raked my fingers through my hair. “Go back to sleep, Alessia.”Her eyes remained closed, and she frowned. “Where are you going?”I hesitated. “Just getting some water.”It was not exactly a lie, but it was also not the truth. She a soft hum and

Dominic’s POVFlynn’s eyes met mine, held for an instant and his entire body tensed. His hands knotted around the cell phone, knuckles paling as if I’d caught him about to do something he shouldn’t do.It was thick, heavy, and silent.I descended the stairs slowly, watching every flicker of his expression. His pressed lips. The way his shoulders squared as if bracing for impact.“Who were you talking to?” My voice was even but I made the question heavy with my doubt.He didn’t flinch. Instead, he exhaled softly and shoved his phone into his pocket. “My brother,” he said.I frowned. “Your brother?”He nodded.I folded my arms. “That’s interesting,” I murmured. “Because when I walked into the CCTV room just now, the footage had been tampered with. The logs were wiped clean. And then I find you slipping away to make a call. In this hour.” I lifted my head just a little. “Quite a coincidence, don’t you think?”Flynn swallowed hard, gagging. “Boss, I swear to you, I had nothing to do with

Ella’s POVSomething was wrong.I felt it deep down in my gut, a creeping sense of dread that had been raking at me since the morning. Alessia had ignored my calls and texts. Not one word from her in more than forty-eight hours. That wasn’t like her.She was not the type to merely disappear, not with the twins in play.As for the twins, she embodied overprotective. If something had come up, she would let me know.I pulled up outside the school and gripped the steering wheel so tightly my knuckles went white. It was dismissal time. So the kids start walking out any minute now.I took a steadying breath and stepped out, scanning the crowd of chattering students flooding out onto the sidewalk. My eyes darted from face to face, scanning for two familiar little heads of dark curls.But Lorenzo and Elena weren’t in attendance.I grimaced, heading toward the main entrance. A few kids waved at me. The ones who knew I was a close friend of the twins but I still didn't see them.I got worried a

Alessia's POVThe taxi parked a few streets over to the location. I walked to the last block with my head down, moving like an outcast.I got the shock of my life when I stopped at the entrance of Via delle Vigne. It looked empty and abandoned. The gates were rusted and everything screamed “you could get killed anytime and no one would notice.”I started to reconsider. “Maybe, coming here was a bad idea. I should head back,” I murmured.But I didn't. I kept walking like I had a dead wish.I stepped into the courtyard, scanning every corner. It was also empty and quiet.I gave up. “This was a stupid joke,” I mumbled but then light footsteps echoed behind me.I stood still, scared and prepared myself to run as fast as I could if things went south.I whirled around, my fists up ready to punch with my heart slamming.And then the figure stepped into the light. I punched hard.The figure fell and cried. “Holy hell. You almost broke my nose.”“Sophia?” I spoke, surprised. What was she doin
The Deadly Obsession Chapter 81
Alessia's POVHe waited no longer and kissed me passionately. His hands held tightly onto my waist, pulling me closer still.I gasped softly as his hands grasped my behind and slipped under my dress.My hands repaid in kind by sliding into his soft hair.How I loved how he kissed me—he wasn’t half-starved and I wasn't the only thing keeping him alive. His fingers trailed down my spine agonisingly slow, under the silk, revealing me inch by inch as if he wanted to memorise the skin.I grabbed his shirt, yanked it off quickly, pushed him back until his knees hit the bed behind him.He sat there breathless, but hesitated.Was he holding part of himself back?“I don’t want to take advantage when you’re like this,” he muttered from his thighs, his hands flexing.“You’re not.” I sat on his lap, I centered myself over his leg, I ground against his cock, and I touched every sexy part of his body that I knew would drive him insane. “You’re just what I need right now. Enough of the gabbing, take
The Deadly Obsession Chapter 80
Alessia's POVI didn’t remember sending the message.I just remembered the feeling—the way my fingers shook over the keyboard, the way rage clawed up my throat like a living thing trying to escape.“Okay. But let’s make it in my free time. I’ll meet you there in three days.”My thumb hesitated, breathing fast, my heart pounding so loud it filled my ears.I pressed the send button.The reply came seconds later.“Fine. But come alone.”A sick laugh bubbled up in my chest. Of course.I closed the laptop abruptly and rammed it on the bedside table. I was quaking with rage, my fists balled such that my nails gouged the palms of my hands. The need to scream, to destroy something, rode me hard. But I didn’t. I couldn’t afford to slip.Not yet. I wondered if I should tell Dominic.“No, he doesn't need to know yet,” I reasoned. “But what if he could help me find out who it was?”I wiped my face, forcing myself to stand, to move, to act normal.“What if it's a trap? Wouldn't that be working int
The Deadly Obsession Chapter 79
Alessia’s POVI don’t know how long we stayed like that, but I didn't want to break it up.My lips fought for entrance and I became desperate. His touch aroused me. I wanted him badly.The IV line tugged at my skin and pulled me back from my desire. “Ouch,” I groaned and looked down at my arm.“Easy,” he said.I didn't want it easy and I kissed him back. This time I was more hungry than the first.Dominic drew back slightly, just enough to catch my face in his glance. His thumb swept over my jaw so gently I thought he was committing the shape of me to memory.“Are you okay?” his low deep voice spoke.“No, I am not okay. I want you. Goddamn it. Can't you tell. Do I have to say everything,” I hurled in my mind. Yet, I kept shut and nodded lightly.What in the world was wrong with me? I resented how much I was inclined to lean in once more. He had wormed his warm fingers into me, and I loved it.“Yes,” I answered, a little softer than I had meant.He remained in that spot.Instead, he st
The Deadly Obsession Chapter 78
Alessia's POV:My eyelids slowly opened to the blinding light.I scanned the room tiredly and a soft groan escaped my lips. That's when I felt a warm hand on my forehead.I traced the warmth and saw Dominic right beside me. I hadn't noticed him before.“Wh…” I started, but he butted in.“Don't move,” he said in a low gentle voice.“What happened?” I asked, barely hearing myself.“You fell halfway down the stairs, but I caught you,” he answered.“Oh,” I groaned and tried to sit up, but a sharp tug at my lower arm made me hiss. I looked down and saw the IV line shaking into my vein.“Ugh, I hate drugs,” I muttered and moved my hand to yank at the tape holding it down.Dominic caught my hand before I could rip it out and chuckled gently. Was he laughing at me?“What's funny?” I asked.“You look so cute, but you can't. It's the doctor's orders. You were stressed.”The last word left his lips with a worried look on his face.“You think?” I asked, making it all worse, then changed my tone.
The Deadly Obsession Chapter 77
Sophia's POVThe last words ran in my ear like thunder. The door closed and I let out the breath I was holding.That's when I felt it. “Ow,” I groaned and raised my dress up to my thighs. There was a bruise forming on my lap and a small cut on my ankle.It must have happened when I fell.“Great, that's going to leave a scar,” I blabbered. “Just my lucky day.”I needed to get it clean, or it would be infected. It took forever because my father had made all the maids stop working for me until further notice. They didn't disrespect me, though.They couldn't. I would rip their tongues out if they dared.Walking to the drawer didn't hurt until I made a wrong step. “Shit!” I hissed. That was more from anger than the pain.I got the first aid out, applied it while I bit my bottom lip and threw everything on the table in front of me.“I didn't plan for this shit,” I complained.My eyes moved to the bed, and I started walking toward it. My leg hurt a little, so I sat on the soft foam.If it wa
The Deadly Obsession Chapter 76
Sophia's POVI paced around the balcony impatiently. I had lost a lot of time to Dominic. Why couldn't he pick me? And worse I couldn't get to Flynn? Why did he have to be so useless and her caught?I gripped the balcony railing tightly and almost ruined my newly polished nails. It hurt and I took my hands off it.“Ouch,” I groaned.I hated being back in this mansion. I saw the guards stand on patrol. I had lost half my men and some money to make my plan come true but it hadn't worked out.I continued pacing in my black silhouette heels. I refused to lose just like that. It wasn't an option, and I would never let it go over my dead body.I had wanted to be a good wife to him initially until his little witch came along. And he had two small demons to make everything worse.I needed to figure out something. Knowing Dominic, he would retaliate soon because he always kept to his word. I couldn't wait.My fists tightened at my sides. I stomped my feet on the floor and almost lost my stance
The Deadly Obsession Chapter 75
Alessia's POV“You can't be serious. I have been talking to you, Alessia,” his voice thundered.“And I don't want to hear it,” I replied.“What will you have me do?” He asked.“I don't know,” I answered. “You won't tell me anything. You act like you care but you don't. You keep hiding stuff from me and endanger me and the kids. You keep making decisions that I have no say in it.”“That was before. I don't force you to do anything,” he answered.I snapped. “Oh, really. Like the last time you locked me up in that stupid office room for how many days again?”“That was because I didn't know how to handle the situation. You were going to run off and I wanted to know if the kids were mine,” he answered.“Oh, great. How lovely. Now you know. Then what? You forced me to stay in a stupid house alone. You took my phone. Limited me from seeing my kids and best friend. And your crazy ex had to visit me and threaten the heck out of my life,” I lashed out.His face contorted to confusion. “Sophia w
The Deadly Obsession Chapter 74
Alessia’s POVI blinked, staring at him like an idiot. My heart raced wildly. Why did he have such an effect on me?His grip wasn't hard but possessive.“You're not going anywhere, Alessia,” Dominic said. His voice had a silent plea to it.I jerked back to get away from him, but he wouldn't let me go.His other hand came up to cup my cheek, and I slapped it away angrily.“Don't you dare touch me like you love me when all you give me are lies!” I said angrily.“Alessia, stop,” he said, still refusing to let me go.“No!” I suited and pushed against his chest, but he wouldn't budge.What was he made of? Iron?He looked at me like I was some child, and I got even angrier.“Let me go,” I growled.He didn't. He was steady, and he pulled me in, close enough that our chest touched.“I said, let go!” I screamed again.By now, I was sure the entire house couldn't tell what was happening because no one came, or they just couldn't hear me struggle.“I can't,” he said. “ I won't.”“You won't?” I g
