Mirabelle #21 February 1970

Tara confesses her love to Luke in the hidden cave, and together they navigate its treacherous passage to freedom. Outside, Luke coldly tells her he never wanted her affection and urges her to go. Back at the villa, the police are closing in, and Tara is handed an English newspaper that reveals the dangerous truth behind their escape.

Dena thought she could keep her feelings for Nick hidden, even as the Dolly-Pops’ promise to avoid romance with their boss hung over the group. When jealousy flares among the girls and the tension builds at a post-show party, Nick’s sudden announcement shocks everyone—especially Dena, who never expected to be the one chosen.
