Taming the Obsessed Mafia Boss/Lyra's Pen
Cross' POVRebuilding an empire wasn’t something that happened overnight.It took time. Patience. Power.And most of all—fear.This wasn’t supposed to be as difficult as building it from scratch. I knew my ways in and out. But at some point, it began to feel like it could actually be more difficult than I had imagined. Especially when the world thought I was dead. But I knew what I had to do. I had spent an entire year playing my part, pretending to be Mira’s devoted husband, acting like I had left my past behind. I had won the Don’s trust, earned the respect of the men around me, and now, it was time to take back what was mine.I met with Gustav in the lower district of the city, a place we used to call home back in the day. He had been waiting, leaning against his car, cigarette between his lips.“Still can’t believe how you suddenly rose from the ashes alive, boss.” He remarked. I chuckled. “I’m a Margiello, Gustav. I don’t die easy.”“You were in a car crash.”“That’s easy.”He

Cross' POVMira moved closer to me, walking to my front with her hands on my shoulders, her head tilting up as she stared at me with her soft smile."I have an idea.""An idea?""Why don't we take a little trip? Just you and me."I raised a brow. "What kind of trip?"She giggled, the sound grating on my nerves. "A romantic one. To help you relax."I forced a smile. "We have enough money, Mira. There's no need for you to worry about that."She shook her head. "It's not about the money, Cross. It's about spending time together.""Then we can spend time together here, don't you think?""Please, Cross." She pouted. "Just one night.""And why should we do that?" I asked, pulling her by the waist. "We have a lot going on right now.""Exactly."She put her hands on my chest, pressing her body close."Don't you want to forget about all this? Just for a little while?"I knew she was trying to get on my good side. Trying to keep me distracted. And I couldn't say no. Not without raising suspicio

Ari’s POVI woke up to the sound of quiet. The kind of quiet that stretches across the morning, settling into the bones of the house, filling every corner with a thick, heavy stillness.The kind of quiet that reminded me of Cross.It happened this way every now and then since he left… since he passed. I would just randomly awake to realize he was a vacuum in my life now, one that nothing would ever fill up. I turned onto my side, staring at the ceiling, willing my thoughts to move elsewhere. It had been too long since I let myself feel this way, and I wasn’t about to spiral now. Not when I was trying. Not when I had Derek.Derek.I sat up, running a hand through my hair. He had been sick all night, his fever raging, body burning up against mine. I had held him, whispering soft reassurances, pressing damp cloths against his forehead, my fingers ghosting over his skin. I had watched his features twist in discomfort, had listened to the slight groans he made in his sleep, had worried.

Ari’s POVI slammed the restroom door shut behind me, gripping the edge of the sink as I stared at my reflection in the mirror. My stomach twisted with a mix of disbelief and disgust. Kaelie. With Jonathan.Of all the people in the world, she had to pick him?I ran a hand through my hair, exhaling sharply as I tried to make sense of it. I could imagine Jonathan’s smug face, relishing every second of this twisted little game. He wasn’t with Kaelie because he loved her. No, he was with her because it was the perfect way to get under my skin, to make me feel small. To make me look stupid.Well, I wasn’t about to give him the satisfaction.I squared my shoulders, took a deep breath, and decided. If Jonathan thought he could get to me, he had another thing coming. I was going to walk out there, sit at that table, and act like I didn’t give a damn. Like he was nothing. Like they were nothing.With my mind set, I pushed open the door and stepped out.Kaelie’s eyes found mine the moment I ret

Ari’s POVThe moment I stepped out of the building, cold air slapped against my skin, but it wasn’t enough to quell the fire burning inside me. My hands were clenched into fists, my breaths uneven as I forced my legs to keep moving. I needed to get away, far from the suffocating presence of Jonathan and Kaelie, far from the betrayal that had carved itself into my chest like a dull knife.All the while, I kept wondering how it could be so. I couldn’t still fathom what was happening. Kaelie and Jonathan? What the fuck!I believed Kaelie was a friend. Why would she choose to date Jonathan to spite me? Or did she really love him as she claimed?Bullshit!I kept walking until I found a small, empty park tucked between a series of dimly lit streets. I sat down on a bench, crossing my arms tightly over my chest. My thoughts were a mess, running wild in circles that had no end.Kaelie. Jonathan.I scoffed, shaking my head in disbelief. Of all people, she had to choose him? Did she really th

Ari’s POVI woke up feeling lighter than I had in a long time. Maybe it was the sheer thrill of the game Derek and I had set in motion, or maybe it was the satisfaction of finally deciding to put Jonathan and Kaelie in their place. Either way, as I stretched in bed, my phone rang. Derek.“Morning, princess,” he said smoothly, his voice still groggy with sleep.I smirked, sitting up. “Morning, warrior. You sound like you just rolled out of bed.”“Because I did.” He yawned audibly. “Had some really weird dreams. You were in them.”I raised an eyebrow. “Good or bad?”“Good… depending on how you look at it. You were lecturing me about my eating habits while we were stuck on a deserted island. You kept yelling something about protein intake.”I chuckled. “Sounds accurate.”“Anyway,” Derek’s voice turned playful. “Are we still playing the game?”I exhaled, swinging my legs off the bed. “You tell me.”“Well, if we’re doing this right, you need to make up with Kaelie. Act like nothing happene

Ari’s POVThe game continued.It was a ridiculous game, but one I wasn’t willing to lose. Derek and I had established a silent agreement—if we were going to mess with Jonathan and Kaelie, we were going to do it thoroughly.It started with a simple outing. Derek and I met at a small, upscale café, one of those modern, aesthetic places with overpriced coffee and moody lighting. We sat near the glass windows, basking in the golden afternoon light.Jonathan and Kaelie “coincidentally” showed up five minutes after we had settled in. I could see Jonathan’s jaw clench when he spotted us, but Kaelie, ever the oblivious one, waved enthusiastically.“Hey, guys! What are the odds?” she chirped.Derek smirked, resting his arm over the back of my chair in a way that screamed possession. “Crazy world, huh?”Jonathan slid into the chair across from us, not bothering to hide his disdain. “Really is. Funny how people keep showing up in the most unexpected places.”I smiled sweetly. “Well, it’s a small

Cross’ POVThe night was thick with smoke and tension. The air stung of gunpowder and sweat. My men stood before me, a solid mass of warriors who had followed me through blood and fire. They had scattered when the world thought I was dead, but now?Now, they were back.And I was going to give them something to believe in again.I stood on the makeshift stage—a worn-out crate in the middle of an abandoned warehouse we were using as a temporary base. My gaze swept over the crowd. Some faces were familiar, some new, but all carried the same hardened look. The look of men who had seen war.I exhaled, rolling my shoulders. Then, I spoke.“You all thought I was dead.” My voice was steady, cutting through the silence like a blade. “Hell, I thought I was dead too.”A murmur rippled through the crowd. I could see it in their eyes—the weight of everything they had lost when I was gone.“But you know what’s funny?” I let my lips curl into a smirk. “Dead men don’t come back to take what’s theirs.

Cross’ POVKouvu was not going to be easy. At least, I knew this much. I had to find my way to him. That was the most difficult part. Unlike others I could catch in my grasp when I felt like, Kouvu was slippery. He had no base. He had no domain. He was everywhere and nowhere at the same time. I still remembered him quite well, down to the time he caused the riff between Ari and I. He had always been a slippery bastard, never one to face a fight head-on. Instead, he lurked in the shadows, sending messages like riddles, taunting, provoking. Testing my patience.I sat in the dimly lit room of our hideout, my fingers tightening around my phone as I reread the latest message he had sent.You keep chasing ghosts, Cross. But if you want the real thing, meet me. Alone.Attached was a location—a rundown warehouse on the far end of town, isolated, the kind of place where men walked in but didn’t walk out.He knew about the revolution I was making already. The street had its travel network and

Ari’s POVI never should have come here.The second Jonathan pulled me aside, I knew this wasn’t just some casual conversation. The way he smirked, the way his eyes gleamed with something malicious—I should have walked away.But I didn’t.“What do you want, Jonathan?” My tone was cold, arms crossed tightly against my chest.He exhaled dramatically. “Can’t an ex check in on someone?”I scoffed. “Cut the bullshit.”His lips curled into a knowing smile. “Alright, fine. I just find it amusing, that’s all. You, playing house with some guy like Derek.”I didn’t flinch. “And why the hell do you care?”Jonathan took a step closer, lowering his voice. “Because I know you, Ari. I know you better than anyone. And I know this whole thing you’re doing—it’s a joke.”I stiffened.He leaned in slightly, his breath warm against my ear. “Tell me, does Derek know what it’s like to break you? To own you?”Rage crawled up my spine.I clenched my fists. “You’re disgusting.”Jonathan chuckled darkly. “Come
