The Deadly Obsession Chapter 26
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

Ella's POVI felt scared. He did not appear pressured or threatened. “Have a nice day, Miss Ella.”Then the line went dead.I cursed, pounding my fist on my wheel.“Damn it!” I cursed. “What the fucking hell!”This was a kidnapping.And if they thought they could take Alessia and the twins from me, they didn’t know who they were messing with.I looked up to see the car already pulling away from the curb and driving away.There was no way I was going to lose my lead. That would be over my dead body. I buckled up and continued to watch the black car as I threw my car into drive, my foot stomping on the gas.The chase was on.I followed the car from behind. “I’m coming after you sons of bitches,” I murmured.They must have realized I was on their ass, because the black car darted through traffic like he owned the goddamned road.I dug in deeper, wedging my way between vehicles, my knuckles whitening around the wheel.Then, I noticed another black car which was very similar to the first

Ella’s POVThe police station smelled of sweat, discount coffee, and stale cigarettes. I sat on a hard plastic chair, the cuffs finally being removed from my wrists, leaving them sore for an hour, where they had locked me up like a criminal. My patience was as thin as paper, yet I remained quiet, watching the officers crack jokes and laugh like they never intended to take my statement.A balding officer leaned against the counter, devouring a donut, and a younger officer scrolled through his phone. The female officer who had cuffed me stood nearby, grinning at me whenever our eyes met.I cleared my throat. “Are you going to take my statement, or am I just going to sit here all night?”The balding officer hardly looked at me. "Relax, sweetheart. We will get to you when it is your turn.”Sweetheart? I curled my fists into fists. Taking a deep breath, I tried to stay calm.Then, after what felt like forever, the younger officer put his phone down and pulled out a pen. "Alright, let's hea

Dominic’s POVThe gentle drone of the city trickled through the bulletproof glass of my office, the golden lights of Rome winking against the skyline. And even though distant, the Colosseum shone in the sun’s rays. The cold, abandoned cup of espresso on my desk was forcibly emitting its scent into the air, and I rocked back in my chair, fingers grooving a ritual beat on the polished wood.The numbers on the contract in front of me blurred. Tonight, I didn’t feel like doing business. Not when something else heavier hung on my mind.My phone buzzed, shattering silence. A name appeared on the screen.Takashi Kobayashi.I exhaled, straightening as I answered. "Good day, Mr. Kobayashi."A deep chuckle came through the line. "Good day to you too, Mr. Rossi. It is always a pleasure to speak with you.""The pleasure is mine," I replied smoothly. "I trust everything is running smoothly at the site?""As expected." His tone was laced with satisfaction. "The construction in Tokyo is ahead of sch

Dominic’s POV“This offer is the best in the market. You won’t find a better deal anywhere else.” I negotiated.I sat back in my leather chair, my voice low and gravelly, my features all stone. Mr. Fonzie and Mr. Demetrius exchanged a silent glance and nodded to each other across the table.“We accept the offer, Mr. Dominic,” Mr. Fonzi said at last, gripping the pen in his palm.“Then we have a deal,” I replied bluntly.We signed and shook hands. Matteo trailed behind, rising from the signed documents, and walked to escort them out of my office.“Pleasure doing business with you,” Mr. Demetrius said as elevator doors opened.“Same,” I nodded, keeping my eyes on my office.I watched the elevator doors close and turned back to return to my office. Once I walked in, my eyes noticed the black blotch on my freshly washed white T-shirt.I hadn't seen it earlier and it must have spilled when I wasn’t paying any attention. I ignored it and returned to business.A knock on the door took my att

Dominic’s POVSophia had become a problem I could no longer ignore.She was relentless. Always watching. Always waiting. Always scheming.At first, I let it slide. I thought I could control the situation, keep her in check. I was wrong.Sophia didn’t just want to be part of my life, she wanted to own it.She had spent years manipulating, twisting, and forcing her way into places she didn’t belong. And when I tried to pull away, she dug in her claws deeper.I should have never agreed to the engagement plans. It was a stupid idea from the beginning.“What are you going to do about her boss?” Matteo asked. “She's not going to stop.”“Anything I see fit. She's starting to become a problem,” I answered.“Do you think she knows about Alessia?” He asked.“Of course, she does,” I answered.“And the new location?” Matteo asked.“I suspect she might know. That reminds me, I checked the CCTV footage yesterday and it seemed cut,” I answered.“You're thinking someone in the house did it,” Matteo s

Alessia’s POV“Thank you,” I said, as I took the champagne glass from the waiter. I took a sip to hide my nervousness.Beams from above danced like splintered diamonds, spreading a forced light throughout the ballroom. Laughter and conversation wafted around me like poisoned honey. It was sweet, yet deceptive, and choking.I remained at the center of it, my fingers clenched around the stem of the champagne glass. My spine erect, and a blank expression on my face.But beneath that grin, my blood was boiling.Eyes burned into my skin. Women whispered behind their jeweled hands, their eyes darting between me and Sophia with barely restrained glee. Men leered at them, some with curiosity and some with glee, as if vying for a show. And Sophia? She basked in it.Dominic’s grip on my waist was tight but not painful, his fingers pressing against me lightly as if reminding me to keep calm. He didn’t need to. I had long since mastered the art of keeping my cool.But Sophia was testing it.She

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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
