Necromancy is the manipulation of “the cosmic forces of life and death”, to quote the PHB. Therefore, the souls of the dead can be controlled. So what about the souls of the living?

As far as official material goes, only Magic Jar and Astral Projection do anything with a living soul. Controlling a living being is a matter of the various Enchantment spells.
If you're willing to go deep into the depths of homebrew/research, then the Pillars of Eternity games & world feature a magic called Animancy, which is the manipulation of the soul (living and dead). It's very neat, and a core element of those games.

I know what you're thinking: "In that flurry of blows, did he use all his ki points, or save one?" Well, are ya feeling lucky, punk?
Thank you. Also, do you know how to create magical contracts?
As a player, you talk with your DM ahead of time to ask if they’re open to the idea and work out the details. As a DM, however you want. Geas is useful for a simple one, or you can come up with something more complex.

The fires of Hell scorch you,
My vengeance terrible,
I, ascendant,
Above the flames of
The Inferno,
Of whom the lowest and most torturous
of circles is
Reserved for traitors.
The dead shall
Laugh at
Your eternal fate
Your sins
Shall return
To mock
And torment you.
