บททั้งหมดของ The Deadly Obsession: บทที่ 91 - บทที่ 100

Max's POVSomewhere between the sharp call of a bird and the sting in my skull, I surfaced. My vision flickered on the green leaves against an impossible blue sky. Dirt crunched beneath my cheek as I forced an arm up to shield my eyes.Where the hell was I?Pain bloomed at my temple, hot and pulsing. I blinked, slow and clumsy, till the world snapped into focus. Last night tripped through my mind like a broken reel: the screech of tires, the flash of metal, Ella’s terrified scream.I pushed onto my side, then flipped onto my back, staring at the sun drilling through the trees. I let the heat wash over me, steadying my breath.I sat up fast, with the adrenaline surging in my veins.“Where are they?” I rasped, voice raw as gravel.I stood, knees trembling under the weight of blood and regret. A slight pain hit my chest and I looked down to see a small blood stain on my chest.I hissed and pressed my left palm to my temple. My head ached badly. It felt like it would explode any second.M

Dominic's POV:I did not take the time to make sure Diego was buckled in. I slammed in the gearbox and shot down the driveway like the brakes had escaped the car. The tires screeched as I took the first corner too quickly. Diego swore quietly and suddenly scrabbled for the handle above the suddenly swinging door, as though his life hung on its coordinates.She's gotta know. Any of them. I have to find them before it is too late. Where could have Sophia taken them? What did she do with them? Those thoughts occupied my mind and wouldn't leave no matter how much I tried.I forced myself to be in control and act right. My gold tightened on the wheel and I made a big swerve.“Oooh!” Max and Diego yelled.“Slow down, you asshole!” Diego yelled.“Dude! Are you trying to kill us before we get there?” he cried out, the seatbelt snapping tight across his chest.“I’m trying to get there before they disappear again,” I growled, my eyes straight out on the road.I did not take my foot of the pedal

Dominic’s POVTime had stopped, but the countdown hadn’t. I didn't have much time left.I needed help and looking at the group in front of me, I knew they wouldn't. Except Matteo. And I didn’t want them to.Memories of Alessia's trying to leave came to mind. I should have let her. I messed up. I had kept this a secret for six years and was ready to take it to my grave, but I knew it wouldn't.Why did she have to be the daughter of my enemy?My fingers tightened around the phone until my knuckles ached. I should never have let her live. But the rules were the rules. I got myself into this mess by frolicking with her. Alessia didn't deserve any of it.Still facing the group in front of me. I glanced at my phone then called her. I was sick of everything.She answered on the first ring.“Well,” she purred. “Took you long enough.”I didn’t respond. I was too pissed.Her giggle slithered into my ear. “Did you like the little preview? I had it filmed just for you.”“I’ll do it,” I said, flat

Matteo's POVI watched Dominic walk in. I always wondered how he always did things without showing his emotions. He knew he couldn't be killed, not until they got him to sign away his properties.And he was a difficult one to control. I already made sure the wedding marriage certificate would be ready. Sophia had been fast to hire someone to do it. But I was lucky to get my hands on it through an old friend.We couldn't get her to sign a prenup without her refusing; so Dominic had a bright idea to make the marriage binding documents have hidden little tests that had more of her disadvantages in them. She would sign that before the marriage certificate.I exhaled and pressed the earpiece I wore. “Max, are you there?” I asked.“Yes,” Max responded.“Get Flynn. He's in the basement,” I ordered.“On it,” Max replied, and I heard his hurried footsteps.I took one more look at the estate, then turned to see Rico and five other bodyguards in three cars. They signaled to me to show they were

Matteo’s POVI ducked before the object hit my head. It missed, and I turned swiftly to see an angry-looking Flynn staring at me.He had thrown a screwdriver at me. I found it surprising he didn't use it to stab anyone yet, but thought of throwing it before Diego locked his cell.“You missed,” I said calmly.“Yeah,” he said, visibly pissed. “I won't miss next time.”I smiled. “Sure, you won't.”I began walking and then halted. “Oh, and by the way. Dominic already ordered you three to be moved. Think of it as faith before you risk your chances of ever getting out.”Flynn would have ripped my flesh if he could. Too bad he couldn't.“Screw you. I thought we had a deal. I help you get what you want then you let me go,” he said.I furrowed my eyebrows. I only promised to make it easier for him if he cooperated. I never mentioned the word, “freedom.”“I'm sure I would have honoured that if I had made a mention of it. Didn't you go to school?” I asked.Flynn became more angry and rushed to a
