Sophia’s pulse pounded in her ears.

"I’ve been watching you for a long time, Sophia."

The words twisted in her mind, wrapping around her like a noose.

Rafael leaned back in his chair, swirling the wine in his glass, utterly relaxed—as if he hadn’t just shattered her entire sense of reality.

Sophia gripped the edge of the table, her breathing shallow. “What the hell does that mean?”

His emerald eyes gleamed with something unreadable. Something dark.

“It means exactly what I said.”

Her stomach twisted.

“This isn’t a coincidence,” she whispered.

Rafael smirked. “No, piccola. It never was.”

Her chair scraped against the floor as she pushed back, needing distance. Needing air.

“You’re insane.”

He merely lifted his glass, taking a slow sip. “Possibly.”

Sophia shot to her feet, her heart slamming against her ribs. “I don’t belong here.”

Rafael tilted his head. “And yet, here you are.”

She turned toward the doors, her breath hitching. Run. Now.

But before she could take a step, a hand clamped around her wrist.

A gasp tore from her lips as Rafael yanked her back, spinning her around until she was trapped against his chest.

His grip was firm but not painful, his body a wall of heat and strength.

“You still don’t get it, do you?” he murmured, his voice like silk.

Sophia struggled, but his hold was unyielding. “Let me go.”

He chuckled, the sound vibrating against her. “Say it like you mean it.”

She shoved at his chest. It was like pushing against solid stone.

His fingers brushed against her pulse point, feeling the frantic rhythm beneath her skin.

“You’re scared,” he whispered.

Sophia sucked in a breath. “Of course I’m scared. You kidnapped me, you’re talking like a lunatic—”

His fingers curled around her chin, tilting her face up.

“I’m not talking like a lunatic, Sophia. I’m talking like a man who always gets what he wants.”

Her stomach dropped.

“And what do you want?” she whispered, hating how weak she sounded.

His thumb traced her lower lip, slow and deliberate.

Her breath caught.

“You.”

The word sent a violent shiver through her.

Sophia’s mind screamed at her to push him away, to fight harder—but her body… her body betrayed her.

Her breath hitched, her pulse fluttering under his touch.

Rafael smirked. He could feel it.

“See?” he murmured. “You don’t hate this as much as you pretend to.”

Her entire body flushed with heat.

She did hate him. She did.

But her body had a cruel way of ignoring the truth.

Rafael leaned in, his lips hovering just over her ear.

“Fight me all you want,” he whispered. “But you’ll never escape me.”

A shudder wracked through her, and she hated the way her body reacted.

Rafael pressed a lingering kiss to her jaw before releasing her abruptly.

Sophia stumbled back, her breath ragged.

He smirked, taking another sip of his wine as if he hadn’t just shattered her world.

“Finish your dinner, Sophia,” he said smoothly. “You’ll need your strength.”

Her stomach twisted.

Because deep down, she knew he was right.

  • Torn by Obsession    Chapter 200: The End – A Love Unbreakable

    The empire was complete.Rafael and Sophia stood side by side, overlooking the vast expanse of their kingdom—the dark, sprawling underworld that was now firmly in their grasp. Their gaze met the horizon, where the shadows of their power stretched far beyond what anyone could have imagined. The once chaotic world, filled with constant threats and power struggles, had finally settled under their rule. There were no more challengers, no more betrayals, and no more doubts.They had won. Together.Sophia, no longer the naive detective or the prey in this dangerous game, stood as his equal—her power undeniable, her presence commanding. She had shed her former self, embracing the darkness that Rafael had shown her, not just as his lover but as the queen of shadows. The woman who once hunted him had become the woman who ruled by his side.And Rafael… He had always been the shadow king, the untouchable force who moved in silence. But with Sophia at his side, he had found something more. The fi

  • Torn by Obsession    Chapter 199: Closing of Old Chapters

    The world had finally settled into the new order they had created, one where no shadow loomed over them, no one could touch them. Rafael and Sophia stood together, watching as the final remnants of their past—betrayers, enemies, and false allies—vanished like smoke in the wind. They had survived the impossible, built their empire from nothing, and now, they stood as untouchable rulers in a world that once sought to destroy them.In the quiet aftermath of victory, Rafael had taken a step back, allowing himself a rare moment of reflection. The bloodshed, the betrayals, the constant war for power—it had all been worth it. Every single sacrifice had been part of the grand design, a design that now stretched across continents, ruled by two powerful, unstoppable beings.Sophia stood beside him, her presence as commanding as ever, her beauty matched only by her fierce strength. She had once been the detective who hunted him, unknowingly driven into his world by his hand, but now, she was his

  • Torn by Obsession    Chapter 198: The Final Kill

    The empire that Rafael and Sophia had built was now solidified—unshakable, ruthless, and complete. The dust had settled from the betrayals, and the once chaotic world they had inherited now lay beneath their iron rule. Yet, despite the blood spilled, the power seized, and the enemies vanquished, there was still one final matter to settle.This was not just about eliminating a threat; it was about sending a message. The final kill was not for the empire—it was for something far more personal. A betrayal had cut deeper than any before. And this time, there would be no forgiveness.---The Betrayer: A Familiar FaceThe man who had once been Rafael’s most trusted confidant, now an enemy, had stayed in the shadows far too long. Marcus, a man who had stood by Rafael’s side through every major victory, had somehow grown disillusioned with their rise. A hunger for more had driven him to question Rafael’s rule, to seek out alliances with enemies who had once been beneath him.Marcus had been t

  • Torn by Obsession    Chapter 197: Final Betrayals

    The air in the underground meeting room was thick with tension. Rafael sat at the head of the table, his posture rigid, his eyes dark with an intensity that made the very walls feel oppressive. Sophia sat beside him, her presence a calm but deadly contrast to the storm brewing around them. Their empire had been built on loyalty and fear, but as they neared the final stage of consolidating power, they both knew it was only a matter of time before the cracks began to show.The traitors had been lurking in the shadows for months, their whispers growing louder, their betrayal more certain. Rafael had always known that power was a double-edged sword. It attracted loyalty—but it also bred envy and treachery. The last phase of their rise had seen old alliances tested, and now, the pieces were falling into place.---The First Betrayal: An Old AllyThe first betrayal came from an unexpected source—Alessandro. He had been one of Rafael's most trusted allies, a man who had helped him build the

  • Torn by Obsession    Chapter 196: Rafael’s Legacy

    The moon hung high in the sky, casting its cold light across the sprawling city beneath. Rafael stood at the window of their private penthouse, the city’s skyline stretching out before him like an endless sea of glass and steel. The lights blinked and flickered, a reflection of the empire he had built—one of shadows, power, and fear.But as he stood there, a rare moment of reflection overtook him. The weight of everything he had accomplished, everything he had sacrificed, pressed against him like a shadow. The bloodshed, the betrayal, the endless hours of strategizing and planning—it was all part of the journey. But now, with Sophia by his side, something deeper stirred within him. A sense of purpose that went beyond just ruling the underworld.He turned, finding Sophia standing at the far side of the room, her silhouette dark and alluring against the dim light. She had been his constant, his equal, and his partner in this ruthless game. Together, they had become an unstoppable force,

  • Torn by Obsession    Chapter 195: Sophia Fully Embracing Her Power

    Sophia stood at the head of the long, polished table in the private war room, her dark eyes glinting with a steely resolve. The room was a place where decisions were made, where lives were altered in an instant. Tonight, it felt like the weight of the entire empire rested on her shoulders.Rafael stood beside her, his presence a quiet, looming force. They were no longer just partners in a relationship; they were equals. This was no longer a game of power—this was war, and they had learned to play it with a brutality that matched the world they ruled.---The TransformationWeeks had passed since the wedding, and Sophia could feel the transformation within her. The woman who had once been hesitant, unsure, and at times overwhelmed by the darkness, was gone. In her place stood a queen of shadows—someone who didn’t flinch when confronted with bloodshed, someone who understood that mercy had no place in this world.“We do this together,” Rafael said, his deep voice a low murmur as he lean
