Chapter 70
🕑 Added 2024-07-16 05:09:32 +0000 UTC"I can't believe you came all the way to this dangerous place to save me," Toni exclaims in exasperation as you remove the last piece of armor from her body.
"It's because someone wanted to be too clever and removed the GPS tracker from the bracelet," you remark with narrowed eyes.
"Who puts a GPS tracker in a gift?" Toni inquires aloud as she walks up to you.
"It's because I was worried about you, worried that something might happen, and guess what? It did," you state aloud, looking down at her with a twitching mouth.
"Well, I'm glad it did, because now I can do this," Toni declares as she grabs you by your shirt and pulls you down.
You pause for a second, your mouths close to each other, her blue eyes staring at you. The next thing you know, Toni wraps her arms around your neck and starts kissing you.
You hold her waist tightly as you kiss her with passion, all your worries from the last month transforming into this passionate moment.
"Well, it looks like the little boy has learned how to kiss," Toni teases with a smirk as your saliva joins together.
"I was worried sick about you," you confess, looking at her with a loving gaze.
"Well, you saved me, although I could have saved myself too," Toni remarks with a smirk.
"Yeah, I'm sure you could," you reply with a smile.
"Yeah, who do you think I am? I'm the genius Ton—"
You bend down and silence her with another deep kiss.
"Ahem, ahem," Bobbi clears her throat from beside you, interrupting your kiss, and you both turn to look at her, raising your brows inquisitively.
"I just noticed that girl, doesn't she seem a bit too young?" Toni remarks, noticing Sage, who was looking at your interaction curiously.
"That's Sage. You'll definitely like her," you assure Toni, who has her arms wrapped around you.
"Oh, really?" Toni inquires with intrigue.
"Sable is out there; they've cleared the base. She's asking if the contract is complete or if there's anything more," Bobbi comments, rolling her eyes at the two lovebirds.
"Hmm, it might be best if we keep this Ghostwing a secret from the military for now. Let's have Sable escort us to the US Base nearby," you suggest after some thought.
"Ghostwing?" Toni questions with a raised eyebrow.
"Yeah, this jet is called Ghostwing. Cool name, right?" You pose with pride.
"You always sucked at naming. I will have to check out this jet of yours, it looks like you're hiding many good things from me," Toni teases with a smirk.
"Well, you asked not to see me, so I can't exactly share all the stuff, can I?" You respond with a wry smile.
"You're just as dumb as ever. I wasn't mad at you for that thing. There was something else that we did that was more important that night, and I was ashamed at myself for doing it with a boy who is half my age and whose mother is the same age as me," Toni confesses with a sigh.
"But I thought..." You widen your eyes in surprise.
"If you wanted my A.I. code, you could have just asked me. I would have let you have it... probably," Toni remarks with a dubious face.
"Sorry, I just panicked and assumed the worst," you reply with a wry smile.
Toni wraps her arms around your neck once more and plants another kiss on your lips. "We can pick up where we left off that night after we return," Toni whispers sensually, with her boobs pressed to your chest.
"I would love that!" You exclaim, feeling excited at the thought.
"She is waiting for you," Bobbi comments with a sigh from the side.
"Alright-alright, I will accompany Toni to the base. You and Sage, go back and deliver this mech armour to her house in Malibu," you suggest with a smile as you help Toni down from the jet.
Sable was quite busy because of her losses with the mercenary group and couldn't accompany you to the military base, but she still dispatched some protection with you.
Before leaving, she reminded you of your promise, even after seeing Toni clinging to your arm—a situation that turned out much better than what you had anticipated when you decided to visit her with Toni by your side.

Upon reaching the US base, after presenting your documents and making a call to their superiors, you and Toni were granted entry. However, you decided to dismiss the mercenaries, as they would have had to surrender their weapons, causing unnecessary hassle.
"Oh, Mr. Watson and Ms. Stark, it is such a relief to see you both safe and sound, especially you, Toni. The entire nation was in turmoil when we heard the news, and we've been searching for you non-stop since then. I'm glad you're finally safe and secure," says the woman who arrived with numerous army personnel.
"I am General Janna Hale from the U.S. Air Force," she says, extending her hand to Toni.
"Well, I am glad that people still remember me," Toni speaks sarcastically as she shakes her hand.
"General Hale, a pleasure to finally meet you in person," you greet, extending the handshake into a hug.
"Remember, the army owes me one," you whisper in her ear, feeling her surprisingly ample bosom pressing against your chest.
"Uhm, yes, Luke, pleasure to meet you as well," she replies, sounding a bit flustered. "If you'll come with us, there are many rooms here with proper facilities which I'm sure Ms. Stark will enjoy," she continues, leading you inside the facility.
"I would very much like to go back soon, back to my home," Toni interjects as you walk.
"Yes, definitely. The plane is ready to bring you back to US soil. However, there are some personnel from the CIA, FBI, and DOD who want to have a talk with you, Toni," Hale explains succinctly.
"How fun," Toni speaks sarcastically.
"Don't worry, I will be with you, and surely they wouldn't want to keep the American Hero to be out here away from her home, would they?" You ask with a smile to Hale.
"Yeah, it's just routine questions," General Hale nods in assurance.

After Toni had taken a bath and a nap, you allowed representatives from different departments to question her one at a time, with you by her side.
You were there not just for support; there was something you wanted their help with. However, the first person who was inside the room made your eyes widen for a brief moment.
"Hello, you must be Ms. Toni Stark and Mr. Lucas Watson. I am Moira Mactaggert from the CIA," she stands up and approaches you with a polite smile while extending her hand.
"Let's get this over with fast," Toni remarks, shaking her hand and sitting down on the chair.
As you shook hands with her, you noticed her discreetly sizing you up, and you found yourself doing the same. Not because she was a beautiful woman, no, but because she was Moira Mactaggert.
In your previous world, there were two versions of this character. One was just a normal woman who worked at the CIA, but the other was a mutant, also known as Moira X. She possessed a very odd ability—the ability to reincarnate with all of her memories intact.
In a way, she would be considered very similar to you. However, she reincarnated within the same universe, whereas you were reincarnated into the Marvel Universe from a normal world.
If she was the mutant with reincarnation powers, then it was crucial for you to determine which reincarnation she is currently embodying. Depending on the number of lives she has lived, she may very well be the most dangerous person in the room based solely on her knowledge and the experiences she has accumulated.
She is undoubtedly a high priority on the Index, but despite observing her closely until now, you're still uncertain if she's been reincarnated or not. She hasn't had any apparent interactions with mutants, and her exceptional intelligence could simply be a normal attribute in the Marvel universe.
Your mind is consumed by a significant decision while Moira questions Toni. You couldn't find the answer before, but you realize you have the power to do so now. It would only take a moment to activate your telepathy and have your doubts answered.
As their talks conclude, you sigh. In the end, you couldn't do it. You wouldn't like it if someone read your mind, and the same goes for Moira. So unless you get her permission, you will not use that power on her. And there was no real necessity for you to do it right now; you had her under surveillance, which would definitely make the truth surface one day.
"So that wraps up the CIA's questions for you, Miss Stark. Once again, I'm relieved to see you back with us safe and sound," Moira remarks with a professional smile.
"Good, thank goodness it's over," Toni declares, throwing her hand up in defeat. "Let's move on to the others quickly," she suggests to you.
"One minute, Miss Moira. I have something to show you. I know who was behind this incident," you speak up as you bring your tablet to the table.
"Wasn't it just a random terrorist attack?" Toni asks in confusion.
"Well, after watching this video, I'll give you a big 'I told you so'," you remark, rolling your eyes, as you play the video and show all the documents that can be used as proof as well.
"It was Obie all along. That's why they had so many Stark weapons… But why? I almost considered him as a father, and he wanted me dead!" Toni exclaims in shock.
"This amount of evidence will surely make him spend the rest of his life in jail. But the CIA alone cannot handle this arrest; I'll have to involve the FBI and the DOD as well," Moira says with gravity.
"Well, keep it only to a limited amount of people. I don't want him to catch wind of this," you request earnestly.
"I'll ask for a press conference once I reach back to the States. We will expose him in front of the public; you can arrest him after that," Toni says, looking at Moira with determination.
"All right, I will see what I can do," Moira answers with a nod.
"I should have listened to you from the start. How can I be so blind?" Toni speaks frustratedly.
"Well, it's not every time that I get the chance to humble the great Toni Stark, so I will take your apology happily," you say with a smile.
"It was not an apology," Toni retorts, while rolling her eyes as you both leave the room.
Moira's gaze follows Lucas's back as he leaves the room, her eyes narrow for a second, and she stays seated in her chair for quite a while in thought.
