Falling For My Surrogate Mistress CHAPTER 94
Fiona’s hands clenched at her sides as Sebastian’s footsteps echoed through the parking garage. The shadows swallowed him, leaving only the faint hum of distant traffic. Her pulse roared in her ears. She had expected retaliation. But she hadn’t expected it to come this fast. Taking a shaky breath, she pulled out her phone and dialed Darwin. He picked up immediately. “Fiona?” “Sebastian Pierce was waiting for me in my car,” she said, keeping her voice even. “He delivered a message from the Echelon.” A pause. Then—“Where are you?” “In the parking garage under my building.” “I’m on my way. Stay where you are.” She nodded, even though he couldn’t see her. The call ended, and she leaned against her car, trying to calm her racing heart. The Echelon wasn’t just watching them. They were moving. --- A War Brewing Darwin arrived within minutes, pulling up beside her in his sleek black car. He barely parked before stepping out, his sharp gaze scanning the area. “Are you hurt?” F

The weight of Bella’s words hung in the air like a storm cloud. "The real leader of the Echelon… they call him The Architect." Fiona exchanged a glance with Darwin. If this was true, then they weren’t just fighting William anymore. They were up against someone far more dangerous. Someone who had orchestrated every move from the beginning. Darwin’s jaw tightened. “How long have you known this?” Bella hesitated. “A while.” Thalassa scoffed. “And you conveniently decided to share now?” Bella exhaled. “You don’t get it. No one knows who The Architect is. William was always the face of the operation, but someone else has been pulling the strings. Even William never met him in person.” Fiona frowned. “Then how do you know he exists?” Bella’s gaze dropped. “Because I saw the messages.” She reached into her purse, pulling out a flash drive. “I made copies.” Darwin’s eyes darkened. “You copied classified Echelon messages?” Bella nodded. “I needed leverage in case things went south.

The war room was silent except for the faint hum of the laptop screen. Fiona’s name. Darwin’s. Thalassa. Marcus’s. The Architect wasn’t just tying up loose ends—he was erasing them. Marcus clenched his fists, his knuckles white against the edge of the table. “We have less than 48 hours before this operation is in full motion.” Darwin’s expression darkened. “Then we hit them first.” Fiona exhaled slowly, trying to steady her nerves. “How? We don’t even know who The Architect is.” Bella, still pale from nearly plummeting off a rooftop earlier that night, leaned against the desk, her body visibly tense. She hesitated, then reached beneath her coat and pulled out a worn leather folder. “I might have a lead.” Everyone turned to her. Bella swallowed, sliding the folder across the table. “This was buried in William’s private files. I never thought much of it before, but now—” She took a shaky breath. “I think this could be our answer.” Darwin flipped it open. His eyes scanned the p

The moment the plane touched down in London, Fiona knew they weren’t safe. Not yet. The heist had been successful—too successful. They had everything they needed to take down Alexander Greaves, but they had also just declared war on a man who never lost. Fiona tightened her grip on the armrest as the jet taxied to a halt. “Stay alert,” Darwin muttered beside her, his gaze flicking toward the window. “Greaves isn’t the kind of man to let this slide.” Marcus unbuckled his seatbelt, already typing furiously on his laptop. “I’ve been monitoring his movements. He’s gone dark.” Thalassa raised an eyebrow. “That’s not good.” Bella let out a bitter laugh. “No, that’s terrifying. It means he’s planning something.” A heavy silence settled over them. Then, Darwin stood. “We move fast. We need to analyze the files and expose him before he gets the chance to wipe us off the map.” Fiona nodded, forcing down the unease twisting in her gut. They had started this fight. Now, they had to f

The moment the files hit the Pandora Network, the world exploded. News stations scrambled to verify the leaks. Social media erupted with outrage. Governments and corporations descended into chaos, trying to contain the fallout. For years, Alexander Greaves had operated in the shadows, pulling the strings of industries, politicians, and power players. But now, the truth was out. The carefully crafted empire he had built on lies, extortion, and manipulation was crumbling before the world’s eyes. Fiona sat in front of the screen, watching it unfold in real time. It was working. They had delivered a crippling blow to Greaves. But the victory felt hollow. Because he wasn’t going to go down without a fight. --- The First Strike Darwin’s phone buzzed. Marcus glanced at the caller ID. His face went pale. “It’s an encrypted signal.” Darwin answered, putting it on speaker. A low, calm voice filled the room. Alexander Greaves. “I must admit, you’ve impressed me.” Fiona’s fingers

The explosion had sent shockwaves through the city. The media was already reporting Alexander Greaves' apparent death, but Fiona didn’t believe it for a second. Not until she had proof. She stood on the rooftop, staring at the smoldering wreckage of the helicopter, her mind racing. If there was one thing she knew about men like Greaves, it was that they always had a backup plan. Darwin stepped beside her, his jaw tight. “We should go before the authorities get here.” Marcus had already hacked the security feeds to wipe out any trace of their presence. Bella and Thalassa were watching their backs. But Fiona couldn’t move. Something about this felt wrong. Too easy. It's too staged. Greaves had orchestrated some of the most elaborate schemes in modern history. Would he go out in a fiery explosion with no failsafe? No. He was still alive. Somewhere. And she was going to find him. --- The Escape The team moved fast. They exited the estate through a hidden tunnel Marcus ha

The End of an Empire The sun had barely risen when the news broke. Every major network, every headline, every online feed carried the same story— ALEXANDER GREAVES: EXPOSED. CAPTURED. DESTROYED. For years, he had been an untouchable force, weaving his web of power through corruption, fear, and control. But now, that empire had crumbled. The man himself was behind bars, facing an unprecedented list of charges. The charges alone read like a novel—embezzlement, fraud, conspiracy, bribery, racketeering, obstruction of justice. It was a miracle he had stayed in power for as long as he did. But in the end, justice had caught up to him. His empire was in ruins, his allies either in hiding or cutting deals to save themselves, and his name was being dragged through every news cycle. Fiona sat at the safe house, staring at the screen in quiet disbelief. It was over. Truly over. She had spent so many years fighting to expose the truth, uncovering every secret, dodging every attempt to s

A Step Into the Unknown Fiona and Darwin didn’t speak as they left the airstrip. The weight of everything that had happened—the fights, the betrayals, the victories—still clung to them. But for the first time, it wasn’t a burden. It was a reminder. A lesson. They had survived. Now, they had to figure out how to live. The ride back to the city was quiet, the hum of the engine the only sound filling the space between them. Fiona watched the world blur past the window, her thoughts tangled. A fresh start. She had said those words, had meant them, but starting over wasn’t as easy as just saying it. What did a fresh start even look like for her? She had spent years pretending to be someone else, living under false names, running from shadows. Who was she without the fight? Without the need to constantly look over her shoulder? Darwin’s voice pulled her from her thoughts. “We should talk about where we go from here.” Fiona turned to him, searching his face. “You mean us?” He nod

The weight of Sofia’s whispered word—Morrigan—hung heavy in the air. Fiona’s knuckles were white as she clenched her fists, her pulse hammering in her ears. Beside her, Darwin stood rigid, his expression carved from stone. The sight of the journalist, barely clinging to life on that stretcher, was a brutal confirmation that Morrigan had escalated the war. This was no longer a battle fought in the shadows. This was all-out warfare. “We need to move,” Fiona said, her voice tight with anger. Darwin nodded. “Agreed. We’re done playing defense.” Thalassa touched Fiona’s arm, her normally smug expression replaced by something dangerously sharp. “Sofia’s not dead yet. That means we still have a chance to get information from her. But if Morrigan wants her gone, she’ll send someone to finish the job.” “Then we keep her alive,” Fiona said. “We make sure she wakes up, and when she does, we find out everything she knows.” Marcus was already tapping away at his laptop, pulling security foota
Falling For My Surrogate Mistress CHAPTER 164
The night air was thick with tension as Fiona and Darwin left the hotel, their minds racing with what had just happened. Sofia Laurent was barely clinging to life, a direct victim of Morrigan’s retaliation. It was the wake-up call they needed. They could not afford to stay on the defensive any longer. “We need to retaliate now,” Fiona said, her voice firm. “No more waiting for her to make the next move.” Darwin nodded. “Agreed. We hit her where it hurts.” Thalassa, who had been quiet since they arrived at the scene, finally spoke. “We need to dismantle her network from the inside. Gabriel Foster is the key. If he’s funding her, we cut him off.” Marcus tapped away on his laptop. “I’ve been tracking Foster’s accounts. He’s got shell companies moving money for Morrigan. If we expose them, we can freeze her assets.” Fiona smirked. “Then let’s make sure she has nothing left to fight with.” --- The team split up, each with a critical role to play. Marcus and Thalassa would continue
Falling For My Surrogate Mistress CHAPTER 163
The silence in the safe house was deceptive. It wasn’t the calm of victory, but the pause before a storm. Fiona sat at the edge of the couch, her mind racing. The operation had been a success—they had struck a critical blow to Morrigan’s media empire. Yet, she knew this wasn’t the end. Morrigan wouldn’t take the attack lying down. Darwin stood by the window, his phone in hand. He had been monitoring news reports since their escape. The hack was making waves. Several major outlets had already begun reporting inconsistencies in Morrigan’s financial records, questioning her sudden rise to power. It was the beginning of the unraveling they had planned. “She’s going to retaliate,” Fiona muttered, her voice barely above a whisper. Darwin turned to her, his eyes dark with thought. “She’ll come at us hard. She won’t just defend herself—she’ll want to destroy us.” Thalassa smirked from across the room, leaning against the wall with her arms crossed. “Good. Let her come. We’ve been on the
Falling For My Surrogate Mistress CHAPTER 162
The hum of the hotel elevator was almost deafening as Fiona and Darwin descended from the upper floors, where Morrigan had just issued her chilling warning. The once pristine and composed atmosphere of the meeting had quickly turned sour, leaving them with more questions than answers. Fiona's mind raced, her thoughts heavy with the implications of Morrigan’s offer. "She’s playing us," Darwin said quietly, his voice steady but tinged with an edge of frustration. "She wants us to make a choice—her side, or continue fighting against her. But it’s all a manipulation. She knows how to push our buttons." Fiona nodded, though the uncertainty gnawed at her. She couldn’t shake the feeling that Morrigan was holding something back—some crucial piece of the puzzle that could give her the upper hand. Fiona was used to being in control and manipulating situations to her advantage. But Morrigan? She was an entirely different animal. "She won’t stop," Fiona said, her voice firm. "She’s trying to
Falling For My Surrogate Mistress CHAPTER 161
The safe house was buzzing with activity. The team was fully aware of the dangers that lay ahead, but there was a new edge to their determination—one fueled by the need to outsmart Morrigan at her own game. Fiona stood at the front of the room, flipping through the dossier Marcus had compiled on the latest developments. The intel was invaluable, but it felt like every time they thought they had a grasp on the situation, Morrigan would shift, making the ground beneath them unstable. "You heard her right?" Fiona's voice cut through the low murmurs of the team. "She wants a meeting. And we can’t ignore the implications of that." Darwin was at the map pinned to the wall, tracing the routes they’d use to escape if things went wrong. He turned toward Fiona, his face tight with resolve. "Morrigan doesn’t do anything without purpose. This isn’t just a negotiation—it’s a trap. She wants us to think we have a choice in the matter." Thalassa was examining the blueprint of a luxury hotel in G
Falling For My Surrogate Mistress CHAPTER 160
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
