All Chapters of The Deadly Obsession: Chapter 131 - Chapter 140

Dominic's POV“Let her be,” I breathed.“No,” Sophia responded. “Enough of you or anyone in this damn house trying to silence me. I want her out. This second!”Slowly I rose from the couch. Then, I spoke in a calm yet threatening voice. “I don't need to tell you who owns this place.”Sophia gulped. Her brain had made the calculations. She wasn't in charge. I was.“She's staying,” I added. “You're welcome to stay as you want. You're family.”Sophia almost choked as she looked at me with wide eyes and open mouth. She tried to force the words out but couldn't.If she had been calmer. She would have made it harder for me to grant Martina's wish. For once, I was grateful for her temper.I signalled to one of the guards around. “Help her in.”The guard moved immediately and helped Martina with her suitcase. Sophia watched with the look of horror as the bodyguard helped Martina into the house and towards the guest room.Then I left the living room, heading upstairs to my room. Climbing the s

Alessia's POVThe Next DaySleeping was hell. I didn't even have a wink of it. I didn't even realize I had stayed up that long until the morning light graced my room from the light curtains.I got out of bed and walked to the window, stood there, arms crossed, jaw locked, watching the city move on with my mind asking different questions.All I knew was that I was sick of being on the sidelines. I turned from the window and zipped my suitcase shut with a harsh jerk. The sound sliced through the silence like a warning. I welcomed it. My hands trembled—not with fear, but fury. Clarity. The kind that comes after every illusion dies.Inside my bag were a couple of clothes, cash, a burner phone, charger, IDs, whatnots and whatever was important like the last time I was running away from that son of the devil.I breathed when I was done and dressed up. Nothing was out of place. I checked my phone's time. I had an extra forty minutes left.I stepped into the twins' room.They were still asl

I heard footsteps behind me. They were louder and faster. It was more like running. I got to the elevator and pressed the button.The door opened, and I got in.I heard the receptionist scream and run towards me. “No, ma'am. You have to go through the right protocol.”“Stop her!” She ordered the security, and he acted swiftly, placing his hand on the door and stopping it from sliding shut.I remained calm and waited as the receptionist ran forward and stopped in front of the elevator, panting.“Please, ma'am. I would like you to leave the elevator,” she said.“Leave?” I repeated. “Why should I?”“That's it, young woman. How about to get the fuck out right now!” She blurted.Well, I wasn't in the mood to exchange words with her and simply took off my sunshades.“I should what?” I asked in the meanest tone I could mutter.The receptionist began moving backward and stuttered. “M….miss Alessia.”“You didn't ask for my badge. You didn't bother to look at my face or ask who I was, and you'r

Dominic's POVThe phone dropped carefully to the table from my hand as I locked eyes with Alessia.Her face had horror and concern for me. She didn't completely hate me. There was still hope for me. But I didn't intend to exploit it.I deserved every single pain. That's why I hadn't done anything yet. I didn't bother to catch the culprit or stop the news because I wanted to suffer.For everything I did to her.“Open up. Now!” The officers yelled. They were here for me.Alessia turned her gaze from me for a second then back at me.“Open it,” I said. “They're here for me.”“What?” She asked in a gentle voice.The police started banging on the door wildly. “You have ten seconds to open up or I'll break the door down.”“Open it,” I said.“No, they'll take you away. That's not what I want,” she complained in a gentle voice.“Alessia, open the door or they'll break it,” I said.She shook her head gently, refusing.“This isn't the time to feel pity,” I said.“Ten,” the officer began to count

Sophia's POVThis was bad. Very bad. Why and how did she get that? What was this? Everything is supposed to be going my way?I sighed inwardly and counted to five before switching my countenance to being unbothered.“Is that the best you can do? Bring a used test kit to me. You want me to accept that I am pregnant so badly that you got someone else positive stick to force your point on me.”“Oh,” Martina muttered. “Force you?”“I'm done with this,” I said, ready to walk away. “And you.”“How do you explain going to the doctor's office?” Martina’s voice greeted me.“So, you have been following me around the city? Why don't you become a dog instead?” I spat.“I don't have time for that. Just bear in mind that I'll be watching you. Every single minute.”I didn't wait and left. That was enough problems for today.I still had time to get rid of her before Dominic came, but first I had to find a way to get out of this house without being noticed.Marching down the hallway, I progressed quic
