Falling For My Surrogate Mistress CHAPTER 8
Fiona hadn’t expected it to be easy. Nothing ever was where Darwin Solomon was concerned. But as the days wore on, she found herself drawn deeper into his world again—this time, with no illusions about the consequences.The glittering skyline outside Darwin’s penthouse painted the city in shades of gold and deep violet. From the expansive windows, she could see the towers of Bay City, a world of power, wealth, and the ever-present tension that came with it. Fiona sank back into the plush leather chair, feeling the weight of what lay ahead. Her fingers brushed across the folder in front of her—evidence of the threats closing in on them, on her. The files were filled with betrayal, sabotage, and lies.Despite Darwin’s warnings, there was still a part of her that wanted to turn away from this fight. After all, she had spent years in the shadows, enduring as Darwin’s stand-in for Lilian. She had watched from the sidelines as his world spun out of control. But now, everything was different

The minutes felt like hours as Fiona stood beside Darwin, staring at the glowing lights of Bay City, each one representing a potential threat, a rival, or an obstacle in their path. The air between them was thick with the weight of their shared knowledge. The trap was set, and it was only a matter of time before it would snap shut.Fiona knew they couldn't afford to wait around. Bella and William had already made their move, and while Fiona had spent the last few days covering her tracks, the danger was still very real. Darwin was right to be worried. Once their enemies knew they were no longer hiding in the shadows, everything would change.“We need to get ahead of them,” Fiona said, breaking the silence that had lingered since Darwin had caught up with her. Her voice was steady, even though her insides were churning with anxiety. “We can’t afford to wait for them to make the first move.”Darwin nodded, his face taut with determination. “I’ve already started moving pieces into place.

Fiona’s fingers trembled as she clutched her phone, staring at the message that had just appeared on the screen. They know. The words echoed in her mind, sending a chill down her spine. Her heart raced, and the weight of the moment pressed heavily on her chest. Had she made a mistake by playing both sides? Or had the walls she was trying to carefully build already begun to collapse?Her breath came in shallow bursts as she stepped out of the elevator, the sound of the doors closing behind her almost deafening in the stillness. The marble floors of the building gleamed under the overhead lights, but everything felt suddenly distant. The polished, pristine world of R&K Electronics, and by extension, her entire carefully constructed world, seemed to blur at the edges. This wasn’t just a business game anymore; it was war, and she was standing right at the frontline.She quickly gathered herself, forcing the rush of panic back into the recesses of her mind. There was no time to second-gues

The moon hung high in the sky, casting a soft glow over the city that never slept. Bay City seemed alive with an energy that pulsated through the streets, but Fiona’s mind was far from the vibrant lights and sounds. Her world had narrowed down to a singular thought: they were running out of time. She sat at her desk, the once-organized piles of paperwork scattered in front of her, untouched. Her phone lay next to her, its silence almost as loud as the chaos she was feeling inside. Darwin had been distant since their last conversation, but that was understandable. There was little time for pleasantries when the stakes were this high. They had both been walking on the edge for too long, and one misstep could send them tumbling into the abyss. The message from her mysterious contact still echoed in her mind: They know. It wasn’t just an idle warning—it was a declaration of war. Fiona had thought she could outsmart William, could play him the same way she had played others, but William

Fiona stared at the message in disbelief, her heart pounding in her chest as the words seemed to etch themselves into her mind. I know what you’re planning. And I’m coming for you. There was no mistaking the cold, calculated tone of the warning. William was no longer just a business rival or an obstacle in her path. He had become a predator, hunting her down with ruthless precision. For a long moment, she simply stood there, her phone in hand, her mind racing. She had known the stakes were high, but now, the weight of her situation felt suffocating. There was no room for error. The game had shifted, and the consequences of any misstep would be dire. But despite the fear gnawing at her insides, Fiona knew she couldn’t back down. She couldn’t allow William to destroy everything she had worked for—and more importantly, everything she was about to build with Darwin. Thalassa’s voice cut through her thoughts. “Fiona, what did he say?” Fiona looked up, meeting her best friend’s concerned

The elevator hummed softly as it descended to the underground garage, but Fiona's heart raced faster than the machine could move. Thalassa’s voice echoed in her mind, her best friend’s urgent warning laced with fear: “They’re on their way to you. Don’t wait. Move now.”Darwin stood beside her, his stance stiff and his jaw set in a grim line. Though he hadn’t questioned her urgency, she knew he didn’t yet grasp the full gravity of the situation. The cold efficiency in his movements betrayed his years of operating under high stakes, but this wasn’t just a business deal gone wrong. This was personal, and it was dangerous.“Darwin,” she said, her voice low but firm, “this isn’t just a scare tactic. William’s people are coming for us, and they aren’t going to play fair.”His gaze shifted to her, sharp and assessing. “I figured as much. That’s why I’ve already locked the building down and stationed more guards at the exits.”She wanted to believe that would be enough, but deep down, she dou

Chapter 14: Echoes in the DarkThe night felt heavier, each shadow cast by the dim streetlights seeming to pulse with unseen threats. Fiona watched Darwin examine her phone, his jaw set and his eyes cold with focus. The device in his hand beeped, the sound cutting through the stillness of the deserted parking lot like a blade.“There,” Darwin said, holding up the phone. “A tracking software embedded in your GPS.”Fiona’s heart sank. “How did they even manage that? I’ve been careful.”“Not careful enough,” Darwin replied, his tone sharper than he intended. He sighed and softened. “It’s not your fault. They’ve probably been watching you for months, planting this the moment they saw an opportunity.”The thought sent a chill through her. William Newton’s reach seemed limitless, and the idea that he had been surveilling her so intimately left her feeling exposed. She wrapped her arms around herself, seeking comfort where there was none.Darwin took a moment to disable the tracking software

The following day, the safe house was cloaked in an unsettling quiet, as though the world outside didn’t exist. Fiona awoke to the sound of birds chirping faintly beyond the high walls, a stark contrast to the chaos that had engulfed her life. For a moment, she allowed herself to imagine what normalcy might feel like—a life free from fear, secrets, and the weight of Darwin Solomon’s world.But reality intruded swiftly.She found Darwin in the kitchen, poring over documents spread across the granite countertop. His brow furrowed as his fingers tapped absently on the table. He looked like a man on the brink of war—focused, calculating, and deadly.“Morning,” she said, her voice breaking the silence.Darwin glanced up, his expression softening ever so slightly. “Morning. Did you sleep?”“Not much,” Fiona admitted, pouring herself a glass of water. “It’s hard to rest when you’re wondering what’s going to happen next.”Darwin nodded. “We’ll make our move soon. I just need to finish tying u

The silence in the safe house felt different now—heavier, more suffocating. After their daring mission in Zurich, the team had returned, expecting some form of reprieve. Instead, the weight of their actions pressed on them. Fiona sat on the edge of the couch, her fingers idly tapping her phone, eyes flickering over the reports Marcus had sent. The glow of the screen only illuminated the exhaustion that had settled in her bones. Darwin paced the room, his thoughts elsewhere. He ran his hand through his hair, each step heavy with the knowledge of what was coming. The clock on the wall ticked louder in the quiet room, every second passing with unbearable tension. "We’ve hit her, but we haven’t broken her," Fiona muttered, more to herself than to anyone else. Darwin stopped pacing, turning toward her. "I know," he replied. "But we’re getting closer. That’s what matters." Marcus was at his laptop, the blue light from the screen illuminating his face as he sifted through data. "Morriga
Falling For My Surrogate Mistress CHAPTER 159
The silence in the safe house was thick with tension. The confrontation with Morrigan had left more questions than answers, and Fiona couldn’t shake the feeling that they had walked straight into a carefully laid trap. Her words echoed in Fiona’s mind—The question is, what will you do with that power? Darwin stood near the window, watching the Parisian skyline as if it held the answers they sought. His jaw was clenched, the weight of their predicament pressing down on him. Outside, the city buzzed with life, oblivious to the war being waged in the shadows. “She wasn’t just testing us,” Thalassa said, breaking the silence. “She was studying us. Measuring our reactions.” “And she knows we won’t back down,” Fiona added, crossing her arms. “Which means we just painted a target on our backs.” Marcus exhaled sharply, rubbing his temples. “Morrigan isn’t playing by the same rules as Lucian or William. She’s not after domination—she wants control but on a different scale.” “Which makes h
Falling For My Surrogate Mistress CHAPTER 158
The tension in the safe house was thick, an unspoken weight pressing down on them as they absorbed the implications of their meeting with Morrigan. The woman was unlike any adversary they had faced before—calculated, controlled, and entirely unshaken. She hadn’t threatened them outright, but her words had carried a far more insidious warning: they were playing a game much bigger than they had realized, and she had just invited them to the next level. Fiona ran a hand through her hair, pacing near the window. “She knew exactly how to find us, how to draw us in. That means we’ve already underestimated her.” Darwin leaned against the table, arms crossed. “She wants us to believe we have a choice. That we can either join her or become casualties.” “She’s right about one thing,” Thalassa murmured from her seat in the corner. “Lucian’s fall left a power vacuum. And it’s naive to think it would just disappear.” Marcus, who had been silent until now, looked up from his laptop. “She’s als
Falling For My Surrogate Mistress CHAPTER 157
The chill of the Parisian night clung to Fiona as she and Darwin exited the airstrip. The conversation with their informant had left them with more questions than answers. Morrigan—an enigma wrapped in shadows, with tendrils reaching into the remnants of Lucian’s empire. If they wanted to bring the fight to their enemy, they had to find the puppet master before the strings tightened around their throats. Back at the safe house, Marcus had been busy. “I traced another transaction,” he announced as they entered. His fingers danced across the keyboard, pulling up several encrypted files. “This shell company isn’t just funding private security firms. It’s also making direct payments to political figures in three different countries.” Fiona leaned over his shoulder, studying the screen. “Someone is buying influence.” “Not just influence,” Thalassa interjected, arms crossed. “They’re rebuilding Lucian’s control network. These politicians were in his pocket. If Morrigan is keeping them f

The media storm ignited by the leaked files spread like wildfire. Every major news outlet dissected the revelations, exposing names that once seemed untouchable. Protests grew in intensity, and the world demanded accountability. But Fiona knew better than to believe their fight was over. At the safe house, the team remained on high alert. The air was thick with tension as they watched the fallout unfold on the news. Marcus monitored chatter from intelligence circles, tracking the movements of those who still held power within Lucian’s crumbling empire. "There’s a problem," he announced, eyes fixed on his screen. "Several high-profile figures have vanished. No official resignations, no public statements—just gone." Darwin frowned. "That means they’re regrouping. They won’t take this lying down." Fiona exhaled sharply. "We expected this. They’ll strike back. We just don’t know when or how." Thalassa, pacing near the window, added, "We rattled the cage, but the beast isn’t dead yet
Falling For My Surrogate Mistress CHAPTER 155
The Parisian skyline was still cloaked in darkness when Fiona, Darwin, and their team regrouped at the safe house. The victory against Lucian should have felt like a moment of triumph, but there was no time for celebration. The weight of unfinished business still loomed over them. Marcus was the first to break the silence. "Lucian’s network is collapsing, but we’re not out of the woods yet. There are still remnants of his influence embedded in global power structures. We need to root them out before they regroup." Thalassa exhaled sharply. "We’ve taken down the head, but the body is still twitching." Darwin ran a hand through his disheveled hair. "Then we strike before they can recover. We need to dismantle the infrastructure that kept Lucian’s empire afloat. That means targeting his offshore accounts, his shell corporations, and his political backers." Fiona, who had been unusually quiet, finally spoke. "We also need to secure our safety. Lucian may be dead, but his allies won’t
Falling For My Surrogate Mistress CHAPTER 154
The air in the Zurich safe house was thick with tension. The video they had just watched still lingered in everyone’s minds. The Echelon was not defeated. If anything, they had just been provoked. Fiona exhaled, running a hand through her hair. "So we cut off the head of the snake, and now the body is lashing out. We need a plan." Darwin nodded, pacing near the window. "We have their financial records and safe houses. We can track their movements, but they already know we’re coming. We need to be one step ahead." Thalassa leaned back against the couch, her sharp eyes assessing the room. "They have power, influence. What we need is leverage. Something to force them into the open." Marcus tapped away on his laptop. "That might be harder than it sounds. The Echelon operates in shadows. Every time we take one of their members down, another takes their place. But..." He trailed off, his fingers flying over the keyboard. "There’s a name that keeps coming up in their encrypted messages—
Falling For My Surrogate Mistress CHAPTER 153
The weight of their victory settled over the team like an invisible shroud. The war had ended, but the scars remained. Back in Zurich, the safe house felt eerily quiet after weeks of chaos. Fiona stood by the window, watching the city below. It was strange how life continued, oblivious to the battles fought in the shadows. Darwin entered the room, his gaze searching hers. "You haven't slept." She shook her head. "It's hard to turn it off. The fight, the adrenaline... It kept us going. Now that it's over, I don’t know what to do." He leaned against the wall, arms crossed. "We've spent so long surviving, we never planned for what came after." Fiona sighed. "What comes after? Do we just disappear, pretend none of this happened?" Darwin stepped closer. "No. We build something better." A knock on the door interrupted their moment. Marcus entered, holding a file. "Interpol wants a final debrief. They're wrapping up loose ends, but there's something you need to see." Fiona took the f
Falling For My Surrogate Mistress CHAPTER 152
The cold Zurich air carried a sense of unease as Fiona, Darwin, and their team settled into their new safe house. The previous battle had left them battered but not broken. They had struck a major blow against Lucian, but they knew he wasn’t the kind of man to accept defeat quietly. Marcus was the first to speak as he scanned his laptop. “Lucian’s network is in chaos. Graves is officially burned. His accounts are frozen, and every major financial institution is flagging his transactions.” Thalassa leaned against the wall, arms crossed. “That means Lucian is desperate. And desperate men are unpredictable.” Fiona sat on the edge of the table, her mind racing through their options. “We’ve forced his hand, but he still has resources. He’ll retaliate, and we need to be ready.” Darwin exhaled sharply. “Then we go on the offensive.” Isabelle checked the security feed. “We need to find out where Lucian is holed up. He’s too smart to be out in the open.” Marcus’s fingers flew across the
