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 Betrayal at 30,000 Feet
Jackson's POV"Wake up! For crying out loud, wake up, Jack!" I heard Charmaine whisper-scream in my ear. "Wake up before they have us killed." She said and although my neck stung from the pain the dart was meant to cause as an after-effect, those words rose me."What?" I asked, lifting my eyes to look at her. She looked scared. Beautiful. But terrified. Her hair was a glorious mess and her lipstick was smudged from lips to chin. That image wouldn't have troubled me so much if her hands weren't tightly bound behind her with white ropes."You have been sleeping for the last two hours. How were you so comfortable in such a state?"I glared at her light mockery. "I was not comfortable. Besides it's not like I decided to take a nap here, the dart gun did all that by itself.""Yeah, well, we're in a moving vehicle." She announced, trying to twist her wrist out of the grip of the rope."What?" As if to confirm what she'd just said, the vehicle shook causing us both to shake rather painfully.

Jackson's POV"I don't know how you're going to act after I tell you this, but I want to know. It's better that you know." I said, making my way further into the garden. I didn't need to turn to tell that those words scared the heck out of her. I wasn't planning on telling her anything. But the truth was that she needed to know. She needed to know. If I was to be present in my kid's life then she had to know everything. I finally turned as I made my way to the edge of the small rod house that made the garden look more beautiful than it actually was."That's not a way to start a conversation, Jack. You're really scaring me right now. What is the problem?""I have something I need to tell you."She scoffed. "That's not helping. Did you kill someone?""No!""Is someone after you?" She asked, her eyes wide. I shook my head. Well, Verde would be in a matter of days, so... That wasn't exactly an accurate answer but I was about to scare her. I merely came here

Morris's POVI had been sure the door to my bedroom had been closed. I knew because I had even made it up to the worry of locking the door behind me with the golden keys Abel had specially made for me. But as I rounded the stairs, I found the door slightly open. Curious and immediately alert, I pulled my gun up and slowly walked to the door. The closer I got, the clearer the sound of intrusion. If it was one of Verde's goons, I was going to... No, I couldn't afford to shoot that person. Civilians were in the house. Adelaide was in the house. I was supposed to be finding a way to actually make things a bit lighter for her when I tell her about the party, or should I say the suicide mission we would all be walking into, rather than frightening her more.I

Carson's POV "Should I be scared that you asked to speak to me alone?" Katy asked, a bright smile on her face as she settled on my desk, ignoring the empty chair opposite my chair. "Well, you make it sound like the both of us can't have a moment to ourselves without a problem looming about." "Well, if it sounded that way, then I'm very sorry. You just seemed tensed like something was on your mind. And you're kind of making me scared. Is the house bugged or what?" I squinted at her. "Why would the house be bugged?" I asked and she shrugged. "I don't know, I only asked that because it would be better than having a bomb big enough to blow us up in the house. And before you ask why I'm suddenly talking about a bomb, I might remind you that I have been shot at before." "Fair enough," I said, thinking of the best way to say what I wanted to say without sounding selfish. Normally, if worse had come forward, I'd be addressing both she and Charmaine together, but luckily for me, Charmaine

Carson's POVWuty each step that I took to the house, my heart hammered. Verde Michi was in my house! In my house! Verde?! Oh, if only I could just get something that would finally get this man behind bars and leave him there. I could tell from the way Morris kept giving me sideways glance, that he must have been thinking the same thing."What the heck is going on? I have no idea what is going on here and half of me would be really thankful if you just told me.""I'd be lying if I said I knew. He just showed up here. He came in the cheapest car u have ever seen him. If you ask me I would say he's trying to reverse psychology thing because he must be one of the richest thieves alive. I wonder what he's doing with the car he came here with."That is not even the point. He knows where we live, that should bother you more than anything. Somehow, he knows where we are. That means that he's either come in full vengeance for the Mary Potter or t

Katy's POVI raised my head from the cup of coffee I carefully cradled between my hands and found Adelaide watching me closely, her eyes squinted. Her face frowned."What is it?" I asked and Adelaide shrugged."You do know coffee is for drinking right? I don't really know what you think it's for but definitely not for staring." She said, wiping the island. When I didn't say anything, she continued. "Are you going to tell me the reason you're moping holes into the kitchen or not? What's on your mind""What makes you think u have something on my mind? I'm just practicing a new nature called 'quietness', that's not a problem now, is it?""You look worried. What's the problem?" Maybe it was me, but I was a little bit certain the sarcasm had fallen from her voice. When I looked up, I knew for sure that she wasn't being sarcastic."I'm supposed to believe you're being genuinely concerned about me?""Shouldn't I be?" She ask

Carson's POVI had no idea how I was going to break the news to her. But I had to, one way or the order."What's on your mind?" She asked, the minute she walked into the office and closed the door behind her, then turned around to face me. She walked further into the room, her hands were tucked at the back pocket of her jean."What makes you think I have something on my mind?" I asked and she chuckled softly at what I had intended to be a firm tone, hoping it would quicken this up."You're chewing on your own, love." She said. Maybe I had been chewing in my own but for a while all I could think about was the word she had just refered to me as: love. I shook my head, trying not to smile like a teen boy talking cowardly and stupidly to his first crush.I finally smiled a controlled smile. "I chew my pen whenever I'm nervous.""Ooh, I know one more thing about you. Score, go me!" She said with a bright smile, throwing her hands

Morris's POV"So, you're saying we have hundred percent access to the device now?" Carson asked, almost spilling his coffee from excitement. Abel shook his head."I'm saying I managed to crack it a little bit. If the Mary Potter was do easy to get into like that then it wouldn't be as wanted as it is. It's a chip that Verde is making for fellow billionaires like himself to be able to take and hide digital stuff from eyes. In the hands of anyone, it's a completely empty memory card but to me and other tech gurus, it's a chip that contains all the most powerful message ever. From the tiny bugs and errors that I spotted in it, even though it's pretty genius, I'd say it's the very first out if a million more they plan to create. It's a sample and it will break backs. So I think we ought to be smart with what we have." Abel narrated as his fingers came quickly down the keyboards."What do you mean when you say it's going to break backs?" I asked and

Jackson's POVWhen I heard her come into the room, I made no move to look at her. I wasn't sure if it was anger I felt or just uncertainty that I would hate her. I didn't want to hate her. During the hard days, it was the hope that I could love her that kept me going and I was going to when I quit, that is if she hadn't moved on, that kept me going. But now? I wasn't so sure."It was you that left the note to come out here and talk, was it not?" She asked quietly. From her voice, I could tell she was cold. She sounded like she had been shuddering. I finally turned around. If she was cold, then she had to be sick. Because she was wearing a very thick coat, there was no way she was cold in that. I nodded. Was I supposed to be nervous that she showed? Or was I supposed to be happy? I had no idea."I wrote the note. I'm happy that you showed up. I was afraid you wouldn't show. With everything that has happened—""You don't know me anymo

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...
