Alexander pov

“We haven’t seen each other in a year, in a year, Alexander Knight, and the first thing you do is shoot at me!?” Daniel exclaimed, rubbing his temples in frustration. His feet tapped impatiently on the ground as he tried to regain his composure, his anger simmering beneath the surface.

I didn’t respond right away, my expression calm as I sat there, my fingers absently tapping on the desk between us. His eyes were shooting daggers at my hand, glaring at it with so much intensity, but I pretended not to notice.

“Well?” he asked, his voice laced with impatience, waiting for any kind of explanation.

I shrugged, offering nothing more than a casual glance.

“I didn’t shoot at you,” I said nonchalantly, “I shot at the wall behind you.”

His mouth opened, ready to retort, but I was already tuning him out, not even bothering to listen to whatever he was about to say.

Instead, my attention shifted to Felix, who sat quietly in the far corner of the office. His eyes we

    Alexander pov “What in the K-drama plot twist is this?” Daniel was the first to break the silence, his head casually resting on my shoulder as he peeked at the file. The world narrowed in, and for a brief moment, I couldn’t move—I couldn’t even breathe. My grip tightened on the edges of the file, knuckles turning white as I stared at the name glaring back at me like a cruel punchline to a bad joke. Father: Nico Vance, CEO of the Vance Foundation. Additional Information: Known as "Don Nico," leader of a criminal organization. Daniel must have sensed the murderous aura radiating from me because he quickly cleared his throat and took a cautious step back, wisely putting enough distance between us—just in case I decided to snap. “S-She’s Nico’s daughter? Are you sure this information is correct?” Daniel stammered, his attention darting to Sebastian. “Y-Yes, Dr. Daniel,” Sebastian replied, swallowing nervously. “I triple-checked her background to make sure there was no mistake.

    Valentina povDreams. Endless, foggy dreams.“You useless idiot! Can’t you do anything right? Everything has to be spelled out for you. Toss this garbage in the bin and make me something edible!”I stood frozen, watching as the furious woman hurled food at the one cowering on the ground. The humiliation in the air was palpable, but the cruelty didn’t end there."Are you really surprised, Mother?" the other woman sneered, her voice dripping with mockery. "She’s nothing but an illegitimate child—a maid’s daughter, no less! And yet, you allowed her to marry into our family, to my dearest brother."She placed a dramatic hand on her chest, her head thrown back as though she’d just been struck by the world’s greatest tragedy.“I—I will make another one. I’m sorry, Mother,” the woman on the ground whispered, her voice shaking as tears threatened to spill. “I’ll make another—I’ll make another—”“Stop right there!” the angry woman barked, her tone venomous as she cut her off. “Who do you think

  • The Mafia Don's obsession    10|Did she just call me daddy?

    Alexander pov Did she just call me daddy? That was the single thought that consumed me as I sat there, perched on the couch with a drink in hand, my gaze fixed solely on her. The chatter in the room faded into the background as I narrowed my focus to her and her alone. I couldn’t seem to tear my eyes away as I studied her every move and mannerism. This girl—Valentina Vance—carried the same name as my enemy. Her fate should have been sealed the moment I had her in my grasp, but I had spared her. For one reason. Because she had saved my son. Felix. Killing her would have been too easy, too merciful. If I couldn’t exact my revenge by taking her life, I would do something far worse. Something twisted. So, I had simply erased her past and given her a new identity. The identity of my dead wife—the woman her father had murdered in cold blood. When I told Daniel my plan, he had outright refused, his voice trembling as he swore he wouldn’t do such a thing, not even at gunpoint. But a s

    Valentina pov “Your name is Emily Knight, and you are my wife.” The tall, devastatingly handsome stranger finally broke the suffocating silence after what felt like an eternity. His deep voice sent a shiver down my spine, and I swallowed hard, turning to look in his direction. Damn. No matter how much I stared at him, I couldn’t get used to how absurdly breathtaking he was. He had the kind of presence that made you wonder just how much time God spent sculpting him. Those piercing gray eyes seemed to see straight through me, and the sharp angles of his jaw looked as if they had been chiseled by the heavens themselves. I’d seen my fair share of attractive men—or at least, I think I have. It’s hard to say when I can’t even remember my own name. What was I saying again? Right, attractive men. The first thing I noticed when I woke up was an adorable boy clinging to me like his life depended on it. And then him. The man standing not far away, built like a Greek god brought to life. Hi

    Valentina povTwo weeks later."Please, Alexander," I pleaded, my voice trembling as heat flushed my cheeks. My breath came in ragged gasps, and I tangled my fingers in his hair, pulling him closer. "I need you... I need you inside me so badly."A deep groan escaped him as his tongue teased me, his thick fingers curling inside, hitting the sensitive spot perfectly that drove me insane."Yes… just like that," I gasped, my head falling back in pure ecstasy. I moved against his hand, chasing the release building within me.I was so close. So close that I actually saw stars. My toes curled as Alexander held my thighs firmly apart, preventing me from closing them."Hmm, such a good girl," he murmured, his hot breath fanning over my sensitive heat. "Cum for me—I want to taste all of you."His pace quickened, fingers moving faster and harder inside me. A gasp tore from my lips as my grip on his hair tightened. My head fell back, overwhelmed by the intensity of my impending release."Alexande

    Alexander pov “Were you able to keep this out of the press?” I asked, taking a drag of my cigarette as my eyes skimmed through the tablet in my hand. The contents of what I was seeing were disappointing, to say the least. My patience was wearing thin, and I was this close to throwing the tablet away, but I held it in—held every ounce of anger bubbling inside me and narrowed my eyes. “Yes, boss,” Sebastian replied, his tone calm and measured, “We’ve bribed and threatened the news stations. The moment they realized it involved you, they promised not to release a word.” “We were also able to eliminate all those who could be a threat for now. The rest are in hiding, but we’re tracking them down as we speak.” I arched a brow at his words but didn’t look up. “Track them down by the end of today. I want no mistakes. Understood?” “Yes boss” “What about the man who killed the cop, has he been taken care of?” “He’s been caught, boss. He’s currently at the warehouse,” Sebastian re

    Valentina pov "Good boy, you listened to Aunt Martha today, didn't you? I'm so proud of you," I said with a soft smile, ruffling Felix's hair gently. He nodded twice in response, his toothy grin lighting up his face as he puffed out his chest and leaned into my touch like a little puppy seeking affection. "You finished your broccoli too? All of it?" I asked softly again, recalling how, just yesterday, when Martha tried to feed him broccoli, he had bolted into my room, clinging to me like a lifeline and stubbornly refusing to eat even a single bite. Despite all the maids’ attempts to persuade him, Felix wouldn’t listen to anyone but me. So seeing him behave so obediently now felt like nothing short of a miracle. But that wasn’t even the most surprising part about this kid. Just minutes ago, I had been caught off guard by the sight of a small army of maids chasing after him, their frantic cries of “Master Felix!” echoing through the halls as he ran to me. Meanwhile, Felix just

    Alexander povI have never been… sexually assaulted in my thirty years of living.Who would dare to do such a thing? No one in their right mind would risk being skinned alive. Yet this girl before me had done it without a moment’s hesitation, as if she were completely unaware of the consequences.This girl—this reckless, stupid girl—not only hugged me but had the audacity to kiss me without my consent. For a moment, my brain short-circuited, my eyes widening in shock as I struggled to process what was happening. No matter how hard I tried to think or react, I couldn’t. My body refused to move.Damn it.Her soft, plump lips pressed against mine as she wrapped her arms around my shoulders, pulling me closer. She was stiff, unmoving, yet determined. One would think it was her first time kissing someone, with how flushed her face was, and how she seemed to hold her breath. But there was something unsettling in her expression, something that made her appear almost like a creep. My heart p

    Valentina pov A tear slipped down my cheek just as Alexander's hand cradled the back of my head and he kissed me. His lips were rough and intense against mine, stealing a whimper from me and granting him access to my mouth. I closed my eyes and kissed him back, my body responding on its own, as though it didn’t belong to me. But why was I crying? Why did this ache in my chest feel so suffocating? It left me breathless. And the nightmare— why was it blurry and most of all, why did it feel more like a distant memory than a dream? A gasp escaped me as Alexander’s other hand slid to my waist, gently pushing me down onto the bed. His lips moved in perfect sync with mine, a low groan rumbling from his throat as he climbed over me, one hand cupping my chin to tilt my head up as we kissed. It hurt. A shiver coursed through my spine when Alaric leaned away from my lips, his mouth trailing down to my neck, pressing hot kisses along my skin until he reached my collarbone. He placed a k

    Alexander pov She hadn’t woken up since yesterday, and it had affected me more than I cared to admit. I wasn’t even sure what emotion was clawing at me, was it the frustration over what she had done, throwing herself in front of my mother just as I pulled the trigger? Or was it the worry that came from watching her lie there, pale and still, showing no sign of waking up? “The bullet went through her shoulder. She lost quite a bit of blood, but she should be able to wake up soon,” Daniel said, his expression tired as he removed his glasses, his eyes meeting mine. “So don’t worry and get some rest, Alexander. You haven’t slept since yesterday.” I didn’t say anything for a brief moment, my gaze fixed on Valentina as I leaned back against the wall, hands tucked into my pockets, my expression unreadable. “Where is the kid?” I asked eventually. Daniel sighed for the second time before answering. “He wouldn’t stop crying and kept asking to be with Valentina, so I gave him something m

    Valentina pov Two years ago. “Madam, madam,” My eyes slowly fluttered open and I groaned, lifting my head to find Agatha standing in front of me with a sad look and a slight frown etched into her expression. “Agatha…” I murmured, reaching up to rub my tired eyes before glancing around. I was in the dining area, and in front of me sat the food I had cooked with Agatha’s help. Today was Damien’s and my anniversary. It was supposed to be a special day. I had made all of his favorite dishes, hoping to make him happy and maybe spend a little time with him, especially since he’d been so busy these past few months with work that I barely have the time to spend time with him. “Has he arrived?” I asked, a hopeful smile tugging at my lips. When Agatha shook her head, the smile slowly faded from my face. My gaze shifted to the clock, it was already 10 p.m. Two whole hours had passed since we finished cooking, and Damien still hadn’t shown up. My eyes drifted to the food on the table, an

    Alexander pov "And it looks like I didn’t finish the job, Mother,” I said coldly, cocking the gun against her forehead. Her body went rigid, eyes wide with fear as she stared at me. “A-Alexander,” she stammered, stumbling back as if distance could save her. But it was futile. There’s something both of us had forgotten to mention about our twisted relationship. I was never afraid of my mother. She was afraid of me. Despite all her efforts, every calculated move, every twisted game meant to make me cower, I never did. She tried to make me believe my life was in her hands. But the truth? I was far too broken to fear a woman who was all bark and no bite. How should I put it? She was a prey pretending to be a predator. A mouse wearing the mask of a cat. A weak woman hiding behind an illusion she had created. People like that always acted unshakable, like the world couldn’t touch them. But deep down, they were the most fragile. The most helpless. “You said I shot you twice,” I

    Valentina pov When did I react? When did I start yanking my mother in law's hair? Well maybe it was the part when she had called Alexander a monster. When she had told me everything she had done to him to ensure his obedience or according to her: To make sure he was the perfect tool to use for her plan. She had said that Alexander was incapable of love and that was why I had hated him so much I couldn’t even bear the sight of him. That Alexander wasn’t meant to be loved, only feared. That he would eventually end up alone, never knowing what it meant to be loved. Maybe that was why I was currently yanking her hair back and forth, clearly catching her off guard. “Let go of my hair! How dare you?! Do you know who I am?!” she screamed, trying to pry my hands away. But I only gripped tighter, pulling harder as she grabbed a fistful of my own hair in retaliation. Pain shot through my scalp, but I wouldn’t let go. “Who gives a damn who you are?!” I snapped. “Take back what you said a

    Alexander pov Bang! Bang! Bang! Gunshots. Screams. And then... the soft thud of bodies hitting the ground. Those were the three things I grew up with. The three things I was used to and, oddly enough, the three things that made adrenaline course through my veins. Blood. The sickening sound of knives slicing into flesh. The tears, the terror of someone standing at death's door. These were the things that made me feel alive. It was what shaped me. There's a popular saying: "Monsters aren't born, they're made." But me? I was born and made this way. I still remembered when my therapist first diagnosed me with psychopathic tendencies. He had said, "I'm sorry, Mrs. Knight, but your son shows signs of early stage psychopathy. While it's still developing, he doesn't process emotions the way most people do. I understand that people in your line of work don't flinch at killing, but this is a seven-year-old child. You said he cried when you told him to shoot his dog but didn't hes

    Warning: Mention of abuse. Valentina pov “So, you’re telling me you don’t remember anything at all?” Sera asked as we sat in her study. After she had questioned who I was and insisted I wasn’t her daughter-in-law, we had moved to her office. Despite my reluctance to leave Felix alone outside, I knew I had to explain everything. Now, sitting across from her, I told her how I had been in a coma for about a month and had lost all my memories. That, at least, might explain why I didn’t recognize her. I nodded my head, a smile tugging at my lips. "I don't remember anything from my past. All I know is that I'm Alexander's wife and Felix's mother." I said, giggling softly as the thought crossed my mind. To be honest, by now, I'd already accepted my role as a wife and mother, and it no longer felt awkward, though it never really had. At first, I had been a little scared because it felt like I was thrust into a life that was unfamiliar. But now… My grin widened as I remembere

    Third pov Flashback. "Kill it," the woman dressed in pink ordered, her voice so cold that it instinctively made the boy, Alexander, flinch. Alexander shook his head, tears streaming down his face as he cried harder, begging his mother not to make him do it. He couldn’t understand why she would ask him to kill his dog, his only friend, the only one who had always been there for him. You see, Alexander Knight had always been seen as a cold-hearted, evil child, even when he was young. He had inherited the cold demeanor of his father, Ezra Knight, and was feared by many for the same reasons. Both father and son were calm, collected, and rarely showed any emotion. That was the reason everyone avoided him. Even his twin, Daniel Knight, had always been scared of him. Maybe that was why Alexander had always bullied his much more outgoing twin, the one everyone loved. Perhaps it was his twisted way of seeking attention. But his brother, Daniel, was so terrified of him, he never played w

No wonder he asked me to pack all my clothes. ‘A vacation to the US,’ he said. ‘You should spend some time with your uncle and learn a few things, then you can come back home,’ he said and I believed him without knowing he basically sold me out!
