"Okay, settle in, class," Mr Parker chirped. "As you all know, we are announcing the five finalists for last week project." He began opening his laptop. "It is important to note being amongst the finalist doesn't guarantee you a win. The five finalists will still be expected to work together and research roles of the industrial revolution in shaping today's climate crisis."

"For the research, though it's a group work, each finalist will be responsible for his own presentation. At the end of the

  • CRAVING THE BAD BOY   228 - Forgotten Promise

    Nick kept staring at Ariana. She stared back at him, her heart beating wildly inside her chest. The image in her mind refused to disappear. A sunny garden. A little boy with dark hair. A smile. And a promise. "I'll find you again."Her hand trembled. "I know you."The words slipped out before she could stop them. Nick looked just as shaken. "I... I think I know you too."The men in black exchanged glances. One of them smiled. "So the memories are finally coming back."Ariana looked at him. "What did you do to us?"The man folded his arms. "Nothing permanent."Her father stepped forward. "Don't listen to him."But the man ignored him. "You were children when you first met."Nick frowned. "That can't be right.""It is."The man looked at the photograph in Ariana's hand. "You spent almost an entire summer together."Ariana's head began to hurt again. More images flashed through her mind. A lake. A tree house. A little boy handing her a flower. She pressed a hand to her forehead. Nick imm

  • CRAVING THE BAD BOY   227 - Taken

    The bright lights from the helicopters covered the entire clearing. Ariana lifted a hand to shield her eyes. The loud noise of the blades made it difficult to think. The voice from the speaker came again. "Do not resist. Surrender Ariana and Nick."Fear swept through the group. Several of the men who had arrived with Evelyn immediately stepped back. It was clear that even they had not expected this. Victor looked furious. "This wasn't the plan."Evelyn looked up at the sky, her face pale. "No, it wasn't."Ariana's father moved closer to her. "You need to leave."She stared at him. "Leave where?""Anywhere but here."Nick stepped beside her despite his injury. "We're not going anywhere until someone tells us what's happening."Her father looked at him for a long moment. Then he sighed. "The Circle has rules.""I don't care about their rules.""You should."There was something in his voice that made both Ariana and Nick fall silent. Her father looked between them. "They've been searchin

  • CRAVING THE BAD BOY   226 - The Man She Lost

    Ariana forgot how to breathe. The man standing a few feet away looked older than the picture she had seen, but there was no mistake. It was him. The same eyes. The same smile.The same face she had kissed goodnight in old memories. Her father. The man she had cried for. The man she had buried in her heart years ago. Tears filled her eyes. "No," she whispered.The man looked at her with a sad smile. "Ariana."The sound of her name on his lips made her knees weak. Nobody had said her name like that in years. As if it were something precious. As if he had missed saying it. She took a shaky step forward. "You can't be real."He swallowed hard. "I wish I had come back sooner."Tears rolled down her cheeks. "My father is dead."Pain crossed his face. "I know that's what you were told."She shook her head. "No. I went to your funeral.""There was no body, sweetheart."Her breath caught. Just like her mother. No body. No proof. Only stories. Only lies. Her entire life suddenly felt like a puz

  • CRAVING THE BAD BOY   225 - The Woman's Secret

    The woman smiled as she looked at Ariana. "Hello, sweetheart. I've been looking for you."Ariana's entire body went cold. She had never seen this woman before in her life. Yet the woman spoke as if they knew each other. Behind her, the men in dark uniforms spread out and surrounded the clearing. Nobody tried to move. Nobody even spoke. Daniel was still in Nick's arms, breathing heavily. Nick looked up at the woman. "Who are you?"She finally turned her attention to him. For a brief second, something dark flashed in her eyes. "You've caused me a lot of trouble, Nick."Ariana immediately stepped closer to him. "You know him too?"The woman smiled again. "Oh, I know both of you."Victor suddenly stepped forward. "You shouldn't be here."The woman laughed softly. "And yet, here I am."For the first time, Victor looked genuinely worried. Ariana noticed it immediately. "Who is she?" she asked.No one answered. The woman sighed. "Must I do everything myself?"She looked directly at Ariana. "

  • CRAVING THE BAD BOY   224 - A Face From the Past

    The man stepped out of the shadows slowly. The night suddenly became very quiet. Even the police officers seemed unsure of what to do. Nick stared at the stranger as though he had seen a ghost. The man looked to be in his late fifties. He had dark hair with a little gray at the sides and tired eyes that seemed to carry years of pain.For a long moment, neither of them spoke. Then the man smiled faintly. "Hello, son."Nick's face turned pale. "No."The word came out as a whisper. The man took another step forward. "I know this is difficult.""No."Nick shook his head this time. "My father died."The man stopped. "I know that's what you were told."Ariana looked from one man to the other. Everything was happening too fast. She had learned that her mother might still be alive. Nick had been shot. Now another dead parent was suddenly standing in front of them.It was too much. Nick's breathing became uneven. "You can't be him."The man's eyes softened. "You have your mother's eyes."The w

  • CRAVING THE BAD BOY   223 - The Safe House

    The words on the paper seemed to burn into Ariana's eyes. PHASE TWO: BEGIN IMMEDIATELY.She looked at the photograph of herself again. It had clearly been taken recently. She was leaving her office building, carrying a cup of coffee and looking completely unaware that someone had been watching her.A cold shiver ran through her. Someone had been following her. For a very long time. "What is Phase Two?" she asked quietly.Nobody answered. Claire and Victor exchanged worried looks. That silence was enough to frighten her. Nick tried to sit up, but a wave of pain crossed his face. "Easy," Ariana said, gently pushing him back down."I'm fine.""You've been shot.""I've had worse days."She gave him a look. "This is not the time for jokes."A small smile touched his lips, but it quickly disappeared. Victor took the paper from Claire and studied it carefully. "This shouldn't exist.""What does it mean?" Ariana asked again.Victor looked at her, his expression grim. "It means whoever is runn
