Falling For My Surrogate Mistress CHAPTER 47
The night after their confrontation with Viktor Dane, the war took a new turn.Darwin, Fiona, Thalassa, and Lucas regrouped at a secure location—one of Darwin’s lesser-known penthouses overlooking the city. The tension was thick, their next move unclear.But then, the attack came.Not with bullets or explosions.But with headlines.---Scandal UnleashedFiona awoke to the sound of her phone buzzing relentlessly. Groggy, she reached for it, her stomach twisting when she saw the dozens of notifications flooding in. Her heart pounded as she tapped on the first news alert."Darwin Solomon’s Secret: Fiona Monroe Pregnant—But Who’s the Father?"She sat up, cold dread washing over her as she scrolled."Sources close to William Ashford claim that Fiona Monroe’s affair with Darwin Solomon is more than just business. An insider reveals that the socialite is carrying Solomon’s child, raising questions about the nature of their relationship."The article was filled with speculation and half-truth

The world around William Ashford was beginning to crumble.The proof Fiona and Thalassa had uncovered was damning—offshore accounts, fraudulent payments, and direct evidence linking him to the smear campaign. It was only a matter of time before the truth went public.And William knew it.Sitting in his private study, he gripped a glass of whiskey, his knuckles white as he stared at the news reports flooding in.The backlash had begun.Several journalists had retracted their statements, claiming they had been "misled by unreliable sources." Financial analysts were questioning the legitimacy of the attacks on Solomon Enterprises, and whispers of William’s involvement were gaining traction.More dangerously, some of his most powerful allies—those within the Echelon—had started to distance themselves.A weak link was a liability.And William Ashford refused to be anyone’s liability.He set the glass down and reached for his phone. He had one last play left.A desperate one.But it would h

A Ghost in the ShadowsWilliam Ashford had disappeared.Not captured. Not exposed.Gone.For days, Darwin, Fiona, and their allies scoured every trace he might have left behind—bank transactions, private flights, encrypted communications. They checked offshore accounts, known associates, even his private security detail. But William had covered his tracks too well.And that was the real danger.Men like William didn’t run to hide. They ran to reassemble their power.Darwin stood in his office, his gaze locked onto the city skyline. The tension in the room was suffocating. Across from him, Lucas and Thalassa sat, their expressions mirroring his own grim resolve.“We have to assume he’s already making his next move,” Lucas said, his voice firm. “The Echelon doesn’t just abandon assets like him. If he vanished, it’s because they allowed it.”Thalassa tapped a pen against the table. “That means they’re repositioning him. They wouldn’t cut him loose unless they had something—or someone—to

Darwin Solomon had spent years playing by the rules. That era was over.The explosion at the estate had been the final warning. William wasn’t running anymore. He was hunting.And Darwin had no intention of being the prey.Fiona stood beside him in the secure bunker beneath their property, her face illuminated by the dim glow of computer screens. Thalassa sat at a workstation, fingers flying across the keyboard. Lucas paced near the door, weapon in hand, scanning the security feeds.“Any word on the attackers?” Darwin asked, his voice steady.Thalassa didn’t look up. “They were professionals. No identifiers, no digital footprint.” She tapped a few keys, narrowing her search. “But…”Darwin and Fiona stepped closer.Thalassa turned the screen toward them. “I traced their escape route. They were extracted by an unregistered chopper heading west. Only one organization has the resources to pull that off without a trace.”Fiona exhaled. “The Echelon.”Lucas clenched his jaw. “They’re not ev

Allies and BetrayalsThe morning air carried a heavy sense of urgency as Fiona paced inside Thalassa’s penthouse. The city stretched beneath them, indifferent to the war brewing in the highest echelons of power. Darwin sat across from her, arms crossed, his expression unreadable. Marcus, Darwin’s trusted assistant, stood by the window, flipping through documents on his tablet. Thalassa leaned against the bar, sipping black coffee, her sharp eyes shifting between Fiona and Darwin.No one spoke for several tense moments.Fiona finally broke the silence. “This doesn’t mean I trust you,” she said, glaring at Darwin. “But William is a bigger threat than either of us can handle alone.”Darwin inclined his head, his jaw tight. “Agreed. But make no mistake—I don’t expect you to forgive me. I just want to bring him down.”Thalassa sighed, pushing off the counter. “We don’t have the luxury of old wounds right now. William is cornered, and that makes him dangerous. He’ll retaliate, and we need t

The air in the penthouse felt suffocating, thick with the weight of decisions that would determine their future. Fiona’s fingers tightened around her phone as she absorbed the weight of Marcus’s words.Bella had aligned herself with William.It wasn’t just a betrayal—it was a direct threat to everything they had worked for.Darwin ran a hand through his hair, exhaling sharply. “We should’ve cut her out sooner.”“She was already drowning,” Thalassa said, tapping her nails against the marble countertop. “Now she’s just grasping at whatever lifeline she can find.”Fiona’s jaw clenched as she paced across the living room. The city skyline beyond the glass windows stretched out like a kingdom she refused to lose. “But she knows too much. Our strategy, our timeline—William won’t waste time using that against us.”Marcus’s voice remained calm but firm. “We still have an edge. William is desperate, and desperate men make mistakes. He’s trying to move his money, but his offshore accounts aren’

The dim glow of the penthouse lights cast long shadows across the room, mirroring the uncertainty hanging in the air. Fiona’s grip on the phone tightened, the distorted voice still echoing in her ears."Because by this time tomorrow, you won’t have anything left to fight for."She set the phone down carefully, her mind already calculating their next move.Darwin studied her expression, his jaw tightening. “We need to assume William’s making his final play.”Thalassa folded her arms, her usual smirk absent. “If he’s desperate enough to start making threats, he’s cornered. That makes him dangerous.”Marcus looked up from his laptop. “I ran a trace on the call, but it was rerouted through multiple proxies. Could be anyone in William’s inner circle.”Fiona exhaled slowly, steadying herself. “It doesn’t matter. We already knew this was coming.”She turned to Darwin. “How strong is your security detail?”“Strong enough to keep him from walking in here, but if he’s going for something bigger

The night had swallowed the chaos, but the echoes of battle remained.Fiona stood at the edge of the underground garage, watching as the police escorted William away in handcuffs. His once-impeccable suit was disheveled, his face a storm of barely restrained rage.He turned his head slightly, locking eyes with her one last time.“You think this is over?” he murmured, a twisted smile curling his lips. “You’ve just made yourself a bigger target.”Fiona didn’t flinch. “You already tried to destroy me, William. Look where that got you.”A flash of something unreadable crossed his face—then he was shoved forward, disappearing into the waiting police van.Silence settled over the garage.Darwin exhaled, lowering his weapon as he walked up beside Fiona. “It’s done.”Fiona wasn’t so sure. “No, not yet. We stopped William, but the Echelon won’t just roll over.”Thalassa leaned against a pillar, arms crossed. “They’ll regroup, sure. But they just lost their golden boy. That kind of shake-up tak

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
Falling For My Surrogate Mistress CHAPTER 176
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
Falling For My Surrogate Mistress CHAPTER 173
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
