Katherine Mayers never saw herself as a spy, but when the FBI recruits her to go undercover as a housekeeper for Carson Cooper—a ruthless arms dealer—she has no choice but to dive in. Her mission: gain his trust, gather intel, and stay alive. But Carson isn't just dangerous—he’s also dangerously irresistible. As Katy’s cover deepens, so do her feelings for Carson. Torn between her mission and her heart, she’s hiding more than just government secrets. When a deadly business deal goes wrong, and Carson’s life is on the line, Katy must risk it all to save him—while keeping her own identity hidden. But when Carson uncovers her betrayal, a shocking twist changes everything. He’s been undercover too. Now, with their trust shattered, can they work together to stop a bigger threat, or will the secrets between them destroy their only chance at love?

Betrayal's Embrace Between Kindness and Anger
Katy's Point of View.When I knocked on the door and spoke my name by request, I didn't expect him to open the door immediately. But he did. He stares at me for a while before going to sit down on his chair.I closed the door behind me. He stared at me. Yes, he did. But it was like he was ignoring me at the same moment. After he had stared at me the way he did last night, I was a bit scared that he was going to be like this."What is it?" I dared to ask. The question seemed to surprise him. Though, thankfully, he answered."Nothing.""You're sure.""Yes, I'm sure. Why do you ask?""You're... Well, you seem angry.""No, I don't.""Yes, you do. You look like I did something wrong. Did I?""Did you what?" He asked again, distracted."Did I do

Carson's Point Of View.The door closed behind Morris. He silently watched me."What's wrong with you?" He finally broke the silence."Nothing's wrong with me. I should be asking you that question.""What do you mean by that?" He asked, stepping further into the room until he was grasping the chair that was opposite my table."You seemed a little bit too cozy with the home keeper and all." I just wanted us to talk like we usually did. Our case was finally heading somewhere after years of burning midnight oil. It was something to celebrate. And, today, thirty was staring me right in the face. That was huge. I did not want us to argue. I felt like arguing, I knew he did too. But I was not going to give in. I refused to do so."We were just talking. She called me her friend, don't friends talk?""Of course, they do."

Katy's Point of View"You have to tell me everything!" Morris said behind me, making me jump and clutch my chest. I bent down to pick up the duster while glaring at him."For crying out loud, you scared me to death."He shrugged and walked further to the room, stopping briefly before the fruit basket that lay on top of the dining table. He chose an apple."I mean, you know my voice, don't you?" He asked with a small frown, munching on the apple."I do. But it doesn't mean you should sneak up on me like that. I could have had a heart attack. Then we'll be talking about real trouble.""Yeah, but you didn't, now did you?""You know what? Forget it." I turned back and resumed dusting. I was cranky. I didn't want to transfer it to him. After all, he wasn't the one I had stupidly laid down all night thinking about. He wasn't th
Last Updated : 2025-01-06Betrayal's Embrace Popcorn, Pain, and Possibilities
Katy's Point of View.Luckily for me, well somehow, today was packed with things to do, and there was hardly any time to give romance lessons to Adelaide. But the sad part about it all was that my waist felt like it was about to break into two. And there was only one cure for a bone injury. TV. I turned to my bedside clock. If I started now, I could make it on time. I resisted the urge to jump up and slowly got off the bed and slipped into my slippers. The fluffy ones. The last thing I wanted was to do something that would wake everyone up and pin me down for questioning. There was hardly any TV time here and it had been three days since I last watched my favorite soap opera and it was driving me nuts.I slowly walked down the stairs as I made my way to the living room. Quietly. Slowly. The popcorn that I got from the refrigerator was as hot as I used to like it, but when I saw it, I didn't hesitate to collect it. Once a suc
Last Updated : 2025-01-05Betrayal's Embrace Caught in the Middle
Katy's Point of View."Um..." It almost sounded automatic as Morris and I uttered it at the same time. Adelaide walked in with a curious smile on her face. Seriously, was there a time when this girl wasn't smiling?"Are you alright? Both of you." She asked after a few seconds. "Tell me what?"I stared at Morris. I didn't think I had ever seen him so unnerved before. This was the time to come clean and if he couldn't do it, then I would do it for him. For all we cared, Adelaide wasn't really in love with Carson. Maybe, she was just scared of ending up alone and for some reason, she thought making her boss fall in love with her was the easiest way out. Seriously, don't fault me, I'd been reading too many short stories before this operation.As if Morris knew what I was thinking, he slightly shook his head the moment I stared at him. I immediately turned back to Adelaide.

Katy's Point of View.I stared at her for a while, not knowing what to say. I didn't want to jump to a conclusion. I knew that if I did, she would definitely know that I was doing a little bit of a federal job myself."Nail him, how?" My heartbeats blasted into my ear."Make him fall in love with me.""Oh. Is that what you meant?" I wondered out loud.She frowned. "What did you think I meant?""Nothing serious, I guess. I thought, you meant he was into shady businesses and you needed my help to bring him to the authorities." That would be nice, wouldn't it? Nailing the boss under a week that I show up. I would be the talk of the agency. In the food sense.Adelaide laughed, washing her hands. "You have a wild imagination." Well, it was true. It was also one of the reasons the agency thought I had potential, until after three months of working my brains off to actually prove myself. I was a bit nauseous just thinking about the training process.Speaking of difficulties, how did I go fro

Carson's Point of View."You're the boss, if you don't want her among your crew you could always tell her to go. It's not like she's going to strike you or anything." Abel said, his voice booming from the iPad. Morris chuckled softly, pouring himself a drink. He knew his brother too well."Shhh. Don't draw attention to this office. You're loud. I'm still trying to get a hang of this boss thing.""You have been on this thing for a few years, you should know the drill by now.""Oh, yeah? What, if I may ask little brother, is the drill?" Morris asked, carefully sitting to avoid spilling his drink."Be so strict with them that the mention of your name scares them to death.""This is why I don't come to you for advice." I turned to Morris, who looked like he was too deep in his thoughts to argue with his brother like they usually did. "Morris, how on earth did you deal with him for years?""He's my brother. I have my ways."I sighed. "I hope the agency's doing well? I don't want you gettin

Katy's Point of View.I would appear rude if I said I didn't want to be here. And I was tempted to say it anyway. I didn't want to be here. But when I suggested to Morris that I would rather have dinner in the comfort of my bedroom, his reply shook me to the teeth. My belly grumbled, clearly disagreeing with the repercussions of missing dinner at dinnertime."The thing is... You miss a meal here, you can forget about eating at all. It's a kind of a rule.""Well, how is he sure that you don't sneak the food from the quarters to your bedroom? He's not even there. It doesn't make sense."He chuckled a little. "We all eat at the dining table. It's not a hidden thing. I'm serious, you were not briefed at the interview about it.""Wait, so you're telling me that the moment we're called in right now to eat, we are actually going to sit down with the boss and eat with him?" Interesting.He laughed this time around. "You should see your eyes. They're so huge." He nodded still, "You act like it

Katy's Point of View."You know as we're touring, it's only normal that the both of us talk a little right?" Morris asked. I had no idea what changed Adelaide's mind but I was glad she wasn't the one giving me the tour anymore. At least Morris wouldn't sweetly threaten me. I searched my mind for a comeback."We're talking, are we not?""Yeah, well. But we've been talking about how beautiful the Lily bushes are for thirty minutes straight. And you're not even into the conversation. You look like you're trying so hard to focus. Homesick?"The agency was my home, I guess I did miss being myself. I had to start wearing funny wears now. No fun talk. No loud makeup. That was a lot to take in all at once. "Yeah, I guess."He nodded slowly and then smiled sympathetically. "Give it a week or two, you'll start getting used to this place. It is secluded but trust me when I say it is fun."I chuckled. "Is that what you tell yourself?"He paused, then chuckled too. "Yeah. But it does work. To just

Entering the Lion's Den
Katy's Point of View.Something about the way he said the words had me frightened as it had me excited. Carson Cooper? Carson Cooper! Everyone in this room knew what that man was capable of. A dangerous arms dealer and for some reason, they thought I could take this under my belt. Maybe I wasn't going unnoticed after all.A throat clearing came from the other corner of the room. Johnson smiled small as he'd seen that he had in fact brought attention to himself."Okay. You might think this is me being stereotypical, but... Boss, you can't possibly be serious about her." He said. If I could guess correctly, which I always did, I would say he was trying so hard to swallow the shock that I was chosen instead of him. It annoyed him. The more he tried to hide under the painful smile betrayed him. So did his grip on his own. It was cracked. "Katy is... Fast. She is great, if not the best. But for someone as dangerous as Carson Cooper, we are going to need someone who could fight their way ou...
