The Deadly Obsession Chapter 17
Dominic POV:I drove quickly ignoring the traffic lights and stepped on the brakes. The speedometer climbed higher. I had to get to Alessia before Sophia's man did.She was a stubborn woman and if she knew I had her, then she also knew where I had kept her.I chuckled slightly at the thought of racing crazily on the road, because of a woman.Sophia! You crazy woman!I stepped on the gas again, and zoomed past the bus stop. Soon, I noticed red and blue lights twirling on the road behind me.Glancing at my rearview mirror, I saw the police patrol van.“Shit! How could I forget about that?” I murmured and continued driving. They were on my tail.The best I could do was not to turn this into a wild goose chase. And I was the idiot that drove more than the speed limit.I kept my foot on the gas pushing the speed further outrunning them, but I soon slowed down.Getting noticed on the news wasn't something I wanted for myself.I sighed, and loosened my grip on the wheel. And slowly took my f

Dominic’s Pov It wasn't hard before the chief agreed. He smiled and shook my hand. “Pleasure doing business with you,” he said. “Same chief. Same,” I replied, dropping his hand. “Then, I'll take my leave,” I said, and adjusted my shirt. The chief nodded, and I opened the door. I walked out, smirking as I glanced at the officers that had brought me here. James, the blonde officer looked surprised, and had his mouth wide open in shock. I made a small wave and walked out of the station. My hands drove down into my pocket and pulled my phone out. I rang Matteo's number and counted silently until he picked. “Yes, boss,” he said. “Has the bastard spoken?” I asked. “No. He's unconscious and I doubt he'll be waking up anytime soon,” he replied. “Huh?” I asked. “He must have slipped a pill in. It's obvious who sent him,” Matteo answered. “Make sure the bodyguards stay with Alessia. If a single hair on her head goes missing, they are going to answer to me,” I warned.

Sophia's POV:“You jerk!” I screamed, grabbing the first thing close to me. I threw the crystal vase to the wall and it smashed into pieces flying into every direction with the dirt in it.“How dare you?” I continued, not satisfied. I needed more to quench my anger and I stormed to the table, breathing harshly and swept everything off it in one hard shove. The tea cup and wine bottle fell to the floor shattering into little pieces.I walked over to the table stand by the side of the room, and picked the lamp smashing to the floor.“No one insults me in front of my friends!” I yelled, and ripped the curtains off the wall. The fabric tore, breaking my newly done nails.I hissed, as the pain hit me. I had the worst type of anger. It kept moving until I acted.Dominic! You son of a bitch!If he thought he could play me and humiliate me as he wished, then he was joking. I would never stand for it.Slamming my fists on the table, I panted. “Screw you! Screw your whore! I'm not letting you o

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

The Deadly Obsession Chapter 58
Lorenzo’s POVThe whole backseat shook as the car door slammed. I was scared, but had to act strong for Elena. Dad wouldn't be proud if he knew I acted more scared.He always said I was the man and I was going to act it. Elena whimpered beside me, her fingers tightened around the neck of her stuffed bunny on the end of her bag’s zip.I didn't cry and reached for her. She hugged me and sobbed. My fear was soon replaced with anger and I glared at the driver driving us into the thick trees. I hadn't seen a single person in sight from the back and I was waiting to scream if I saw one.I tried my best to memorize every twist and counted them like Dad had taught me some days ago after playing hide and seek.“Where are you taking us?” I asked, while I continued glaring at him.“Be quiet,” Flynn answered.“I said be quiet,” he said again, in a harsh voice.“You don't scare me Flynn,” I said.He stepped on the brakes and slowly turned to face me. Elena held me tightly.“How do you know my name
The Deadly Obsession Chapter 57
Matteo's POVDiego was as annoying as ever. I had to wait an awful ten minutes for him to change into new clothes in his room.“Could you hurry the hell up? I'm sick of standing on my legs,” I lashed out.He turned to look at me, and wore his floral blue shirt. “Sit your ass down or get a wheelchair. You look like you need it,” he responded.“That's it,” I said and walked thunderously to him. He backed up and raised his hand in surrender.“Yo, dude. Chill out. I'm done,” he said.I grabbed his collar and raised my fist. “Piss me off again and I'll knock your teeth out.”Diego looked scared but still adjusted his shirt. He walked to the door and glanced at me. “Aren't you coming?”I followed behind him, hating every moment he greeted everyone around the pub. We continued until we got to the restricted part of the pub.Two bodyguards stood at the entrance. Immediately, they saw Diego, and they let us pass. I heard Diego sigh. I wasn't interested in his father-son problems.Diego stopped
The Deadly Obsession Chapter 56
Matteo’s POVNothing felt worse at the moment than the piercing ache in my rib. It grew as I regained consciousness.“Ugh,” the words escaped my lips as I turned to face the sky. My eyes darted around the environment. I was in the woods. I looked down at my body and saw blood stains on my suit.My hands began to unbutton my suit jacket, and I felt like I had been stabbed a couple of times.“Shit,” I groaned as I looked down at the blood on my side.My memory rolled back to the past hours when I had been driving. I had crawled out of the car after the accident and ended up here.I bit my lower lip as I rolled to my other side and almost screamed. I let out small preparation breaths as I pulled out the piece of glass on my right rib side.I coughed after getting it out and started to move my legs.They were weak but not broken. I looked around again and finally noticed the old, wooden cottage ahead.Maybe, someone could help me if I got to them. I slowly forced myself, grunting as my fe

Alessia's POVThe sun had already sunk behind the hills, leaving the sky a strange mix of gray and violet. The house was too quiet. Not just the peaceful kind of quiet but the heavy kind that sits in your chest like a warning.I checked the clock again. It was 6:47 PM.The twins were supposed to be back by 2:30. Flynn had taken them to school. This was new. Flynn should have called or texted if they were going to be late.The maid appeared and I ran to her. “Is Flynn back?” I asked.“No, Ma’am,” she answered.“Do you have his number? He's with my babies and I'm worried,” I complained.“Uhm, the house phone line has all the guards' numbers on it,” she replied.I didn't hesitate and ran to get the house phone. I called Flynn for the third time and it went straight to voicemail.“Come on, Flynn,” I muttered, pacing near the grand staircase. “Don’t do this to me.”I called again, but still got nothing.I called the school with my phone, and when I was told My kids hadn't made it to school
The Deadly Obsession Chapter 54
Flynn's POVI was with Dominic a few minutes ago when he disappeared in a hurry.I glanced at my wrist watch, and I let out a sigh. On any other regular day, it would be time for the children to head off to school, but their family was not regular.I stayed in the car, waiting but then gave up because I realized that I had to do the move on my own.The cold morning smacked me in the face as I stepped out of the car, my fingers involuntarily fluttering on the steering wheel before I slammed the door shut with a jerk.I looked up at the sky. It was lovely and it annoyed me in some way.I looked into the rearview mirror. The seats were empty for now, but within ten minutes, they would not be.My phone buzzed. I picked it up and wished I hadn't. Sophia had sent a message."Don't be a fool. Or by God, I will destroy everything you have ever laid your hands on."I realized that she was manipulating me. "Narcissistic bitch," I cursed.I clenched my teeth, stuffed the phone into the lining of
The Deadly Obsession Chapter 53
Dominic's POVCarlos stepped into the light smiling. “Hello, bastard.”“Who told you?” I asked, standing from my hiding spot.“Bold of you to come out like that. What makes you think I won't shoot you?” Carlos asked.He was always too dramatic for me.“If you wanted to, you would have shot the second I raised my head. Now, answer. Who sent you?” I asked.“Who else? You really had to push that one person, didn't you? Well, if it makes you feel better. I rejected her offer. I like to work alone. It gives me the thrills,” Carlos replied and took out his gun.I didn't flinch and waited as he pointed the gun to my head. My men aimed at him, and I signaled for them not to risk it.I was out of ammo and my men have less chances of survival.“What do you want?” I asked.“To kill you, what else?” Carlos asked and laughed. His face immediately returned to being angry. “You have been pissing me off for a long time, and I have had enough of your shit!”“You mean you got too tired of being a loser
The Deadly Obsession Chapter 52
Dominic's POVThe flames roared loudly, and I slowly dropped my hands from my face.I started to breathe again and looked around angrily. Someone wanted me dead, and they wanted me scared.My phone vibrated in my pocket.I pulled it out and checked the Caller ID. It was the warehouse's second line. They never used that except for emergencies.That wasn’t good.I answered. “Yeah?”“Boss. It’s Yuri,” came the heavy Russian accent. “You need to come. Now.”I blinked hard. “Why?”There was silence for a while, and then he spoke again. “Someone sent a virus to our system, and we kind of have an issue.”“Spit it out, already,” I groaned.“The men we left behind are dead. Someone got in, and we can't find them,” Yuri said.My hand clenched the phone so tight I heard it creak. “How long ago?”Yuri answered. “Half an hour. We just found out.”Only members of my Mafia group who were also made bodyguards knew all the warehouse locations and extra shipment houses in case of emergency. Since Matte
The Deadly Obsession Chapter 51
Dominic's POVI had never known such fragile peace. From where I sat, I watched Alessia and the kids play on the terrace.Their laughter warmed my heart, and I felt myself wanting to join them.I clutched the bottled water and opened the cork. The water and calmness was blissful.Alessia turned and caught my eye. With a gentle smile, she said, “I thought you were working.”I replied evenly, “I was, until now.”She cocked her head and teased, “Trying to sweet talk your way out of your paperwork again?”I rose and crossed the patio slowly. “Maybe. Or perhaps I wanted to give you something.”She didn't understand and raised her eyebrow to show it.I smiled and got closer to her. “It's my treat for beating Sophia up,” I joked. She laughed and I reached into my back pocket and produced her old phone.“Is that my phone?” She asked, inspecting it, and I nodded.“I figured it was foolish of me not to trust you after everything,” I said.She chuckled and held the phone. “Are you sure? I could
The Deadly Obsession Chapter 50
Sophia's POVThe reflection in the mirror wasn’t just mine anymore. I looked like hell. I was tired, with dark circles under my eyes. I hated that I lost to Alessia.Even my own father called me useless. I wished I could rip her throat out.I screamed, letting the anger out. “Bitch!!!”“I hate you. I fucking hate you!” I yelled again.“He's mine, you hear me! Mine!” I shouted. “You will not be able to have him if I cannot.”I was huffing like a savage animal and panting. “You maggot, let’s see how far you can go.”I wanted her to die so badly with her little demons.I picked up my phone, dialed the number in my head and tapped my legs impatiently as it rang.The man answered on the fourth ring.“Flynn,” I said, voice low, sultry. “Still guarding Dominic’s precious empire like a good little dog?”He was silent for a second. Then, “What do you want, Sophia?”“Is that how to talk to your girlfriend?”He scoffed. “Girlfriend? Seriously? You have been using me like a slave and sleeping wi
