Falling For My Surrogate Mistress CHAPTER 126
A Threat in the Dark Darwin’s fingers curled around his phone, the weight of the message settling in his chest like a stone. "You should’ve walked away. Now, you’ve left me no choice." Fiona read it again, her breath steady but her pulse racing. “He’s desperate.” Darwin’s gaze darkened. “That makes him more dangerous.” Marcus stepped onto the balcony, his laptop under his arm. “We have another problem.” Fiona turned sharply. “What now?” Marcus handed Darwin the screen. A new report had surfaced online, painting Fiona as the mastermind behind a financial scheme—one that supposedly implicated Darwin. She exhaled sharply. “He’s trying to discredit me now?” Darwin’s jaw tightened. “He wants to divide us.” Marcus nodded. “He’s playing a psychological game. If he can make you turn on each other, he wins.” Fiona squared her shoulders. “Then we don’t give him that chance.” Darwin’s lips twitched in the ghost of a smirk. “Agreed.” By morning, Fiona was in front of cameras again,

Darwin stood in his office, looking out at the city skyline. It felt different now—lighter, freer. The shadow of Edward Sinclair had finally lifted, and with it, the weight of constant battle. Behind him, Fiona leaned against his desk, flipping through the morning newspaper. The headlines told the story of Sinclair’s downfall. “EXPOSED: Edward Sinclair’s Empire Crumbles Amid Corruption Scandal.” “Atlas Group Emerges Stronger—Darwin Solomon and Fiona Woods Take a Stand.” “Arrest Warrant Issued for Disgraced Billionaire.” She set the paper down. “Feels surreal, doesn’t it?” Darwin turned, his gaze softening as it landed on her. “We spent so long fighting… It’s strange not having an immediate enemy.” Fiona smirked. “You could always pick a fight with someone else.” He chuckled, stepping closer. “I think I’d rather enjoy the peace… for now.” She raised an eyebrow. “For now?” Darwin’s smirk deepened. “Let’s be honest, we’re not exactly made for quiet lives.” Fiona sighed dramati

Fiona stared at the encrypted message on Marcus’s phone, her heart pounding. Elias Blackwell. A man whispered about in elite circles. A ghost in the business world. A name Darwin had once mentioned in passing, buried deep in Atlas Group’s history. Now, he had surfaced—and he had set his sights on them. Darwin clenched his jaw, rereading the message. “He’s not just threatening us. He’s warning us.” Marcus let out a low whistle. “Warning you to do what? Back off? He must not know who he’s dealing with.” Fiona exhaled sharply. “If he’s the one who backed Sinclair, then we were never fighting Sinclair alone. We were fighting his master.” Darwin locked eyes with her. “Which means Sinclair’s fall didn’t end this war—it just shifted the battlefield.” Fiona sat down, running a hand through her hair. “We need to know everything about Blackwell. If he’s reaching out, it means he has plans. And if we’re not careful, we’ll be playing right into them.” Marcus was already typing furiously o

A Dangerous Move The city lights flickered beyond Atlas Group’s towering windows, but inside the boardroom, a storm was brewing. Fiona leaned over the sleek table, scanning the intelligence Marcus had pulled together. Every document, every connection—it all led back to Elias Blackwell’s empire. Darwin sat beside her, tension in his jaw. “If we hit his offshore accounts, he’ll come at us harder.” Fiona exhaled. “He already declared war. The only way we win is if we make the first real strike.” Marcus tapped his laptop screen. “Blackwell has at least four major accounts spread across different tax havens—one in the Caymans, another in Switzerland, and two more in Singapore and Dubai. But there’s a weakness.” Darwin narrowed his eyes. “Where?” Marcus smirked. “The Swiss account. It’s tied to an old corporate trust registered under Sinclair’s name. Now that Sinclair’s gone, that trust is vulnerable.” Fiona caught on quickly. “If we take that, we’re not just draining him—we’re prov

A Dangerous Revelation Fiona stood in the dimly lit office, staring at the city skyline. The war with Elias Blackwell had taken a dangerous turn, and now, they were one step away from either victory—or destruction. Darwin entered quietly, his face tense. “The board is restless. Some of them are questioning if we should just cut our losses.” Fiona turned to him, fire in her eyes. “We’re too deep in this, Darwin. If we stop now, Blackwell wins. He’s trying to break us, and if we give in, it’s over.” Darwin exhaled, running a hand through his hair. “I know. But we need something big to take him down. He just leaked our finances. He’s turning the media against us. The next move has to be game-changing.” Thalassa walked in, her expression unreadable. “Then it’s a good thing I found something.” She tossed a folder onto the desk. Fiona picked it up, flipping through the pages. What she saw made her breath hitch. Darwin leaned over. “What is this?” Thalassa smirked. “Proof.” Inside

A City in Shock The aftermath of Elias Blackwell’s downfall rippled through the city like a storm. News outlets ran continuous coverage of his crimes, his illegal dealings, and the shocking final confrontation at Atlas Group’s headquarters. The world had watched as one of the most powerful men in the industry fell overnight. His company collapsed, his allies abandoned him, and law enforcement wasted no time dismantling every last remnant of his empire. But for Fiona, Darwin, and their team, the war wasn’t over yet. Unfinished Business Fiona sat at the hospital bedside of Marcus, who had taken a bullet during the final battle. He had been lucky—the wound wasn’t fatal, but it had come dangerously close. Thalassa sat beside her, arms crossed, her usual confidence replaced with quiet exhaustion. “He’s going to be okay,” Fiona assured her, though her own voice sounded uncertain. Thalassa sighed. “I know. But this shouldn’t have happened. We should have seen Blackwell’s final move

A Betrayal That Cut Deep Fiona stood frozen as security dragged Bella away. Her mind swirled with disbelief. After everything—the lies, the manipulation, the near destruction of Atlas Group—it all led back to Bella Robbins. Darwin was silent beside her, his face unreadable. But Fiona knew the storm that raged within him. Bella had been his most trusted employee. Someone he had relied on. And now, she had just tried to kill Fiona. Thalassa let out a low whistle. “I have to admit, I didn’t see that coming.” Fiona exhaled slowly, forcing herself to focus. “She was working with Blackwell. From the very beginning.” Marcus’s voice came through her earpiece. “I just ran a deeper search. Bella’s connection to Blackwell goes back years. She’s been feeding him information this whole time.” Darwin’s fists clenched. “That means she was involved in everything. The sabotage, the leaks, the attempts to ruin Fiona.” Fiona nodded. “And now she tried to finish the job herself.” Darwin’s voice

The Price of Victory Fiona kept her grip firm on Harrison Vaughn’s collar, her heart still hammering from the chaos that had erupted around them. The gunfire had faded, replaced by the groans of fallen guards and the distant wail of sirens—Marcus had called for backup. Darwin approached, his gun still raised, his face carved from stone. “It’s over, Vaughn.” Vaughn chuckled, unfazed. “You think a few files and some dead men make a difference? You don’t understand the world you’re trying to fight.” Fiona’s fingers curled tighter into his suit. “Then explain it to us.” Vaughn exhaled sharply, his confidence unwavering. “Power doesn’t die, Ms. Woods. It shifts. I may fall, but another will rise. You and Solomon? You’ve merely disrupted the ecosystem. The real players—” He smirked. “They’ll come for you.” A cold chill ran through Fiona’s spine, but she refused to let him shake her. “Then we’ll take them down too.” Vaughn’s lips curled in amusement. “We’ll see.” A loud explosion sh

The Ravenport compound burned in the distance, thick black smoke curling into the night sky like a dark omen. Sirens wailed from far off, but they wouldn’t arrive in time. Morrigan’s empire—fortified with secrets, silenced voices, and betrayal—was falling. And Fiona stood at the edge of the cliff overlooking it all, wind tangling her hair, eyes unblinking.Darwin limped to her side, blood soaking through the sleeve of his jacket. He glanced at the burning facility below and then at Fiona. "We did it," he said.Fiona’s jaw clenched. "Not yet. Morrigan’s still out there."From the moment they entered Ravenport, they knew they were walking into a trap. Morrigan had prepared for their arrival, planting explosives along the perimeter and stationing loyal guards disguised as medics and engineers. But what she hadn’t counted on was Sofia regaining consciousness and feeding them a map—hand-drawn, shaky, but enough.Inside the compound, Thalassa and Marcus were still securing the data vault. T

The morning after their quiet moment on the balcony, Fiona woke to the distant hum of tension that had become all too familiar. The events of the previous night—the confrontation, the narrow escape from the stronghold—still weighed heavily on her mind. Yet, there was something more pressing now. Their next move, the one that would finally bring them face-to-face with Morrigan, loomed like an unspoken promise. The safe house, typically a place of refuge, now felt like a pressure cooker. Fiona paced the length of the room, her thoughts a whirlwind of strategies and concerns. They had been living on borrowed time for too long. Morrigan had always been one step ahead, controlling the narrative, pulling the strings from the shadows. But now the game has changed. And Fiona wasn’t about to let it slip through their fingers. Darwin’s voice, calm and steady as always, broke the silence. "We need to discuss our next steps." His presence was like an anchor in the storm that raged within her.
Falling For My Surrogate Mistress CHAPTER 175
The night was thick with silence, but beneath it, an unsettling buzz hummed in Fiona's chest. She stood on the balcony of their temporary hideout, her hands gripping the iron railing as if the pressure could somehow steady her racing thoughts. The city sprawled beneath her like a sleeping beast, the lights flickering like distant stars. It was hard to believe that just hours ago, they had breached Morrigan’s stronghold, driven her back into the shadows, and nearly taken down everything she had worked for. Yet, despite the victory, the air felt heavy, like a storm was brewing on the horizon, and it had little to do with the danger still lurking in the wings. Fiona’s mind kept drifting back to Darwin. The last few hours had been a whirlwind—so much action, so much chaos—but the moments that lingered in her mind were the ones shared with him. The quiet ones, when he had let down his guard, and she had seen the man beneath the mask of the CEO. "Fiona?" The low, familiar voice pulled her

The sun rose over Zurich like a blade of gold slicing through steel-gray clouds. Inside the safe house, the world was still. The boy—Alex—lay curled beneath the thick blanket, his small hands clenched around the edge as if bracing himself for whatever might come next. Fiona stood by the window, watching the street below. There were no sirens. No helicopters. No immediate signs that their extraction had triggered global alarm bells. But the silence itself was suspicious—too calculated, too calm. “They're watching,” she said quietly. Darwin stood behind her, arms crossed. “You think they let us go?” “I think we took a piece they weren’t ready to lose. And now they’re deciding whether to recover it… or erase it.” Darwin’s eyes flicked to Alex’s room. “They built an entire system around him. That chair wasn’t just a monitor—it was a throne. And he was their king.” “No,” Fiona said sharply, turning to face him. “He was a prisoner.” Darwin didn’t argue. Marcus entered the room carr

The screen glowed faintly in the dim room, casting long shadows across Fiona’s face. Project Eidolon. The name alone sent a chill down her spine, but it was the word underneath—Ascension—that twisted something deeper in her gut. It didn’t sound like a simple codename. It sounded like a goal. Darwin leaned forward, brows furrowed as he scanned the documents. “These blueprints... this isn’t just tech infrastructure. It’s neurological. Advanced AI integration. Cognitive manipulation.” Marcus tapped through a few files. “This is way beyond anything Morrigan was doing. It’s years ahead—synthetic brain mapping, emotion prediction modules, even something labeled neural override. I don’t even know what that means.” Fiona spoke slowly. “I think it means control.” There was a long silence. Thalassa entered, looking exhausted, her jacket dusted with snow. “Interpol traced the remaining off-grid assets from Morrigan’s empire. Guess where the trail leads?” Fiona braced herself. Thalassa dro

The halls of the international tribunal were filled with murmurs and media flashes as Morrigan Zayne was escorted through its arched gates in handcuffs, flanked by federal agents. Her posture was upright—chin lifted, spine stiff—but even Fiona could see the cracks beneath the surface. The queen of shadows was finally exposed, her empire in ruins, and her secrets unraveling under the scorching light of justice. Fiona watched from the observation deck above, arms folded as reporters barked questions into the void. Every news station across the globe was tuned into this historic moment. The collapse of the Echelon, the fall of its most enigmatic leader, and the brave few who had torn down its walls. “This almost feels… peaceful,” Fiona said quietly, her voice lost in the buzz of cameras below. Darwin stood beside her, hands in his pockets, his expression unreadable. “Peace never comes without cost.” She turned to glance at him. His bruises had faded, but his eyes still carried the s

The twin engines of the stealth chopper whined softly as it descended beyond the tree line, slicing through the early morning mist like a blade through gauze. Fiona sat strapped in, her fingers curled tightly around the straps across her chest, eyes trained on the satellite feed on the mounted screen in front of her. Davenport wasn’t just a fortress—it was a statement. Built along the edge of a mountainous ridge and shielded by state-of-the-art surveillance, it was the last stronghold of Morrigan’s influence, carved out in steel and secrets. It was also the place where everything had started—and where it would finally end. “We touch down in five,” the pilot’s voice crackled through the headset. “Insertion team, get ready.” Darwin checked the chamber of his pistol and clipped it into place. “Remember, we don’t get a second chance at this. Our window is narrow. Foster’s jet was seen landing fifteen hours ago. We don’t know how long he’ll stay.” “Or what Morrigan’s planning,” Thalass
Falling For My Surrogate Mistress CHAPTER 170
The private jet cut across the sky like a silver dagger, slicing through clouds on its descent toward Ravenport. Below, dense forests stretched for miles, a thick, green blanket hiding Morrigan’s last stronghold. The landing strip, built discreetly behind a series of abandoned warehouses and guarded by a private militia, was the only visible clue that something significant lurked in these woods. Darwin, seated beside Fiona, stared out the window, his jaw tight. Beside him, Fiona adjusted her black tactical jacket, her eyes hollow with determination. They weren’t flying in with an army. This mission demanded stealth, precision, and a level of danger none of them had faced before. “This isn’t a rescue,” Fiona said quietly. “This is an extraction. We go in, pull what we need, and get out before Morrigan knows we were even there.” Darwin nodded. “We identify what Gabriel Foster is doing there. If he’s meeting Morrigan, we document it. If they’re planning something bigger, we expose it.
Falling For My Surrogate Mistress CHAPTER 169
The early morning light filtered weakly through the grimy windows of the temporary hideout. Fiona sat with her hands wrapped around a steaming mug of black coffee, her eyes fixed on the faded map spread across the wooden table. Red and black ink dotted the surface, indicating strongholds, escape routes, and key players loyal to Morrigan. Each mark told a story of manipulation, violence, and the thin web of power Morrigan spun so precisely. But that web was fraying. Across the room, Darwin leaned over a tablet, reviewing the footage from the hotel. Sofia Laurent was still alive—barely—but she had been moved into protective custody under heavy security. Her one whispered word had shifted the tide. Morrigan had gone from shadowy threat to active executioner in the eyes of those still sitting on the fence. And that changed everything. "They tried to silence her," Fiona said softly, her voice tight. "They almost succeeded." Darwin looked up, his expression grim. "But she didn’t die. A
