Ariana POV

I saw his message the moment it came in. I just didn’t open it. My phone lit up beside me on the bed, vibrating slightly, the screen flashing his name like it always did. For a second, my chest tightened the way it used to. That small pull. That habit of reaching for him without thinking.

But this time, I didn’t move. I stayed where I was, lying on my back, staring at the ceiling. Then slowly, I turned my head away from the phone. I knew what he was going to say. I could already imag

  • CRAVING THE BAD BOY   100 - We are not safe.

    Nick POVEverything broke at once. The door slammed open and new men rushed in like they owned the place. They were not calm like the others. They were loud, rough, and ready to fight. You could see it in their faces. You could feel it in the air.This was not a conversation. This was trouble. Big trouble. I sat up straight in the chair, my wrists burning from the rope. My eyes moved fast, taking everything in. The first group of men stepped back slightly. That alone told me everything. They did not expect this. That meant things just got worse. Ariana moved closer to me. I could feel her fear again, strong and real."Nick…" she whispered."I’m here," I said quietly.Even though I didn’t know how long I could keep that promise. One of the new men stepped forward. He was tall, built, and his eyes were cold. He looked around the room slowly, then stopped on me."So this is him," he said.No one answered. The first man spoke after a second. "This doesn’t concern you."The new man laughed

  • CRAVING THE BAD BOY   99 - You should not be here.

    Ariana POVThe door opened. And I stepped inside. For a second, I could not see clearly. The room was dim, and the air felt cold and heavy. But then my eyes adjusted. And I saw him. Nick. Tied to a chair. My heart dropped. "Nick!"I rushed forward without thinking. But before I could reach him, a hand grabbed my arm. Hard. I gasped. "Don’t move," a voice said behind me.My body froze. Slowly, I turned. The same man. The one from before. The one who said I should not come. My chest rose and fell quickly. "Let me go," I said. He did not."You should not be here," he said calmly."I don’t care," I shot back. "Let me go."He studied me for a second. Then released my arm. But he did not move away. I didn’t wait. I rushed to Nick. "Nick…"I dropped to my knees in front of him. My eyes moved over his face quickly. "You’re hurt.""I’m fine," he said immediately.But I could hear it in his voice. He was not fine. I looked at his hands. The rope. Tight. Too tight. My chest tightened. "Who did t

  • CRAVING THE BAD BOY   98 - You were the secret.

    Nick POVMy head was still spinning. The pain had not left. It sat heavy behind my eyes, like something pressing from the inside. Every time I tried to move, the rope around my wrists tightened, cutting into my skin.I forced myself to stay still. Panicking would not help. Thinking would. I looked around slowly. The room was big, cold, empty, with concrete walls, no windows. Just one metal door. Closed. Locked. Of course. I let out a slow breath. "Okay… think."But my thoughts kept going back to one thing. Ariana. The way she looked when they took me. The way her voice broke when she said my name. My jaw tightened. She was not supposed to be part of this. None of this was supposed to touch her. But it already had. And I had a bad feeling it was only going to get worse.The door opened. The sound echoed. Slow and heavy. I looked up. The same man walked in. Calm. Like nothing had changed. Like I was not tied to a chair in a place I did not know. He shut the door behind him and leaned ag

  • CRAVING THE BAD BOY   97 - I came back for you.

    Ariana POVEverything happened too fast. One second, Nick was right in front of me. The next, he was gone. They dragged him out like he was nothing, like he didn’t matter, like he didn’t have a choice. And the worst part was… he didn’t fight.He let them take him. Because of me. My chest tightened painfully at that thought. "No… no, no, no," I whispered, shaking my head. I ran toward the door. But the moment I stepped out. Silence. The hallway was empty. Like nothing had happened. Like no one was ever there. "What the hell…?"My heart was beating too fast now. I ran down the stairs, almost tripping, my hands gripping the rail tightly. "Nick!" I called out.No answer. I pushed the front door open and stepped outside. The street was empty. No cars. No men. Nothing. They were gone. Just like that. It felt unreal. Like I imagined everything. But I didn’t. I knew I didn’t. My hands started to shake. "Think… Ari, think," I muttered.Panic was trying to take over, but I forced myself to brea

  • CRAVING THE BAD BOY   96 - This changes everything.

    Nick POVThe door burst open. Loud, hard, like it was never meant to stay closed. Everything stopped for a second. Then...voices. "Don’t move!"Ariana flinched beside me. My grip on her arm tightened without thinking. Three men stepped into the room. Big, serious, not here to talk. My heart started pounding again. This was worse than I thought, much worse. "Hands where we can see them," one of them said.I slowly raised my hands. Ariana hesitated, then did the same. The man from the stairs didn’t move. He just stood there, watching like this was all part of the plan. "You set this up," I said to him.He didn’t deny it. That told me everything. "You walked into it yourself," he replied calmly.I clenched my jaw. Ariana whispered, "Nick… what is happening?""I’ve got you," I said quietly.Even though I wasn’t sure that was true. One of the men stepped closer. His eyes moved between us. Then stopped on me. "Nick, right?"I didn’t answer. He smirked slightly. "Yeah. That’s you."Ariana lo

  • CRAVING THE BAD BOY   95 - You knew?

    Ariana POV"Tell her… or I will." The words hung in the air. Heavy and sharp. Impossible to ignore. I turned slowly to Nick. My heart was beating too fast, too loud."What is he talking about?" I asked. Nick didn’t answer. He just stood there. Silent. And that silence…it scared me more than anything."Nick." Still nothing. My chest tightened. "Say something." He ran a hand through his hair, his breathing uneven."It’s not that simple.""There you go again," I said, my voice shaking. "It’s never simple with you.""Ariana...""No," I cut in. "No more half answers. No more ‘I’ll explain later.’ I’m tired."The man on the stairs watched quietly. Like he was enjoying this. "Tell her," he said again.Nick’s jaw clenched. "Stay out of this.""I’m already in it."I stepped closer to Nick. "Look at me."He hesitated. Then he did. And for a moment...everything else faded. It was just us. The same way it used to be, but different, broken. "Whatever it is," I said softly, "just say it."His eyes

    "She's gay." He blurted out.I narrowed my eyes. "Gay?""Yes, she's involved with some girl, okay! We're just pretending to be a thing because her parents doesn't approve her sexual choices, and I need her father's influence in growing my career."I swallowed. "But that only complicates this... wha
