Falling For My Surrogate Mistress CHAPTER 62
The underground tunnels stretched beneath the island like a hidden labyrinth, carved deep into the rock to serve as William’s final escape route. The air was damp and thick with the scent of saltwater, the walls lined with flickering emergency lights.Fiona, Darwin, and Marcus moved fast, their footsteps echoing in the confined space. The map on Marcus’s tablet displayed a direct path to William’s exit point—an underground dock where a speedboat waited to whisk him away.“We have less than five minutes before he’s out of our reach,” Marcus warned.Fiona gritted her teeth, her pulse hammering. She wasn’t about to let William slip away again.Not this time.She pushed forward, leading the charge through the dimly lit tunnel. Every muscle in her body was tense, ready for the inevitable ambush. William wouldn’t make it easy for them.And he didn’t.A hail of gunfire erupted from the corridor ahead.“Down!” Darwin shouted, grabbing Fiona’s arm and pulling her behind cover. Bullets ricochet

The night was eerily quiet.Fiona stood at the edge of the crumbling cliff, her breath heavy, her hands clenched into fists. The island, once a fortress of William’s power, now lay in ruins. Smoke curled from the collapsed tunnels, the scent of burning rock thick in the damp air.Her mind raced.William was gone—buried under tons of debris, lost in the chaos of his own destruction. Or at least, that was what logic dictated.But Fiona had learned one painful lesson over the years.William never died easy.Darwin approached, his face smeared with soot and blood, his eyes dark with exhaustion. “It should be over.” His voice was rough, barely above a whisper.Fiona didn’t look at him. “Should be.”Marcus and Bella stood a few feet away, shaken but alive. Bella hugged herself, still pale from the confrontation at the underground dock. She hadn’t said much since they’d escaped, but her silence wasn’t surprising.She had betrayed William in the end.But had it been enough?Marcus checked his

The night smelled of gasoline and smoke.Fiona lay on her back, staring at the dark sky, her heartbeat hammering in her ears. The roar of William’s jet was fading, but the burn in her muscles reminded her of how close they had come.Too close.Darwin groaned beside her, rolling onto his hands and knees. “Tell me we at least did some damage.”Bella, still breathless, checked her tablet with trembling fingers. A second later, a slow, victorious grin crossed her face. “He’s leaking fuel. He won’t make it far.”Fiona pushed herself up, wincing. Dirt clung to her palms, her body aching from the impact of their fall. She didn’t care.Her gaze locked onto the sky, where a thin, barely visible trail of smoke followed the jet’s path.Marcus’s voice crackled through her earpiece. “What the hell just happened? I lost your signals for a second.”Fiona pressed a hand against her ribs, steadying her breath. “William’s plane took off. We tried to stop him, but he got airborne.”A pause. Then, “You’r

The explosion had turned the night into chaos.Smoke curled into the air, thick and acrid, stinging Fiona’s throat as she pushed herself upright. Her body ached from the blast, but she forced herself to move.William was still out there.Darwin was already on his feet, scanning the smoldering wreckage. Bella, coughing, held her injured arm but stayed close.Fiona’s mind raced. William had triggered the explosion to disappear.He had planned for this.Again.Darwin wiped soot from his face. “He’s gone.”Fiona clenched her fists. “He’s hiding.”Bella, still shaken, checked the surrounding area. “No body. No sign of him.”Marcus’s voice crackled over the earpiece. “That explosion just tripped every radar in the region. We have maybe twenty minutes before the authorities arrive.”Fiona barely heard him.She was staring at the ground near the blast site, her brain working faster than her body could react.Something was off.William wasn’t reckless—he didn’t just set off bombs without an es

The silence William left behind was suffocating.Fiona stood motionless, eyes locked on the detonator at her feet. The weight of his escape pressed against her ribs, more suffocating than the smoke curling in the air.Darwin stepped forward, wiping the blood from his brow. His voice was tight. “We can’t let him go.”Bella, still clutching her injured arm, exhaled sharply. “He’s playing us. Again.”Fiona clenched her fists. Every instinct told her to chase him, to hunt him down before he vanished into the night. But the risk—Her mind raced. If the explosives were real, William had just forced their hand.If they ignored the detonator and pursued him, how many innocent people would suffer?Darwin’s gaze burned into her. “Fiona?”She swallowed hard, her voice calm but edged with frustration. “We need to find the bombs first.”Bella cursed under her breath. “You’re kidding.”Darwin exhaled, shaking his head. “She’s right.”Bella took a step forward, anger flashing in her eyes. “No, she’s

The night was far from over.Fiona leaned against a scorched tree, catching her breath as the last bomb lay deactivated at her feet. Her hands were steady, but the tension in her muscles refused to fade.William had slipped away—again.And worse, she wasn’t sure he had been alone.That shadow in the trees. The flicker of movement. Someone had been watching her.Her earpiece crackled.“Fiona?” Marcus’s voice cut through the static. “Tell me you got it.”She inhaled sharply. “It’s done.”A pause. Then—relief. “Good. Because Darwin and Bella just lost him.”Fiona’s stomach tightened.Lost him.She clenched her fists. How many times had they been this close, only for William to pull the rug out from under them?Not this time.She turned, sprinting back toward Darwin and Bella.The hunt wasn’t over.Not even close.---Meanwhile—A Ghost on the RunWilliam adjusted the rearview mirror, smirking as the city lights blurred in the distance.They had underestimated him.

William’s voice crackled through the speakers, thick with amusement.“I was beginning to think you wouldn’t make it.”Fiona’s grip on her weapon tightened. The dimly lit warehouse was silent except for the hum of the old speaker system, but she could feel the weight of unseen eyes.Bella exhaled sharply. “I knew this was a setup.”Darwin’s jaw clenched. “No way out but through.”Fiona scanned the room. The flickering light cast long shadows over rusted crates and broken-down machinery. The walls were lined with metal grates, making it clear—this was no ordinary warehouse. It had been chosen. Prepared.She tapped her earpiece. “Marcus, tell me you’re getting this.”Silence.Then static.Fiona’s stomach dropped.Bella swore under her breath. “Comms are jammed.”William’s chuckle filtered through the speakers. “Clever, aren’t you?” A pause. “But not clever enough.”Fiona exchanged a look with Darwin. They had walked into William’s lair, and he had made sure they were cut off from the out

The city pulsed with a restless energy as Fiona, Bella, and Darwin navigated through the dark alleyways, putting distance between themselves and the warehouse. The faint smell of smoke clung to their clothes, a reminder of the explosion they had barely escaped.Darwin staggered slightly, his wound slowing him down. Fiona instinctively moved to support him, but he waved her off.“I said I’m fine,” he muttered through gritted teeth.Bella scoffed. “Yeah? Because you look like you’re about to keel over.”Fiona ignored them both and focused on her earpiece. “Marcus, say that again. Where is William going?”Marcus’s voice crackled through. “I traced some last-minute financial movements linked to his shell companies. He’s preparing to board a private jet at Blackridge Airfield.”Fiona’s stomach tightened. “That’s too far for him to get there on foot. He’ll have a car waiting.”“Already on it,” Marcus confirmed. “Traffic cams picked up an armored SUV leaving a location near the warehouse rig

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
