The evening began in chaos.
Everyone was gathered in the living room:
Kira and Eiden sitting far apart, Alix on Bryan's lap, Asher strangely relaxed, and Miria already on edge.
We started with board games—cards, Monopoly, dice—but Asher suddenly raised his hands.
- Good ! Now everyone on the floor. We move on to the real game.
His smile was so evil that even Eiden paled slightly.
— Truth or dare.
The others gulped.
Asher grabbed the bottle to spin it, but Kira beat him to it, causing it to vibrate on the floor.
She stopped…on Asher.
Kira smiled like an angel.
An angel planning a murder.
— Truth or dare?
"Truth," Asher replied.
Alix almost jumped.
- Seriously ?! You're the one who suggested this game and you're chickening out?!
Bryan laughed:
— I confirm, Asher usually never backs down.
Eiden added:
— Here it's action AND truth… so yes, there's something to be scared about.
Asher rolled his eyes.
—Good, very good. Action.
"Perfect," Kira said.
His eyes shone.
— I want you to give Miria ten hickeys… without making her moan. Otherwise, two penalties.
Asher turned pale.
Miria turned scarlet, almost fainting.
"Kira… that's not fair," Asher protested.
— You know very well that I'm going to lose... it's impossible that she won't—
"We don't care," Eiden said.
— You wanted to impose this game on us, accept it.
Asher sighed.
- How much ?
"Ten," Kira replied calmly.
- WHAT ?! Miria choked.
Alix laughed:
— Oh, consider yourself happy. I would have asked for thirty.
Miria thought internally:
They are completely sick... they know very well that I am not insensitive to him!
Asher moved closer to her.
Miria stepped back.
—Is this... a joke? I hope ?
He didn't answer.
— You're not going to do that... are you?!
"He doesn't have much of a choice," Kira smiled.
Miria tried to run away but Asher used his powers to gently hold her in place.
- What are you doing ?! Miria panicked.
Asher leaned his head towards her neck.
— Breathe… it doesn't make me any more happy than it does you.
He blew against her skin, causing Miria to shudder uncontrollably, then placed his lips on her neck.
A shock passed through Miria, who tried to remain silent.
A hickey.
Two.
Three.
Four…
At eight, she broke down.
— Hmmm… ha…
She immediately put a hand over her mouth, ashamed.
— Sorry...
Asher whispered:
—You lasted until the eighth. You did well.
"But not enough," Kira sneered.
Asher sighed.
—What is my penalty?
— First: you sleep with Miria, in the same room… and in the same bed.
Miria turned bright red.
- WHAT ?!
"And for the second," Kira continued, "I'll think about it.
—Is that all?! Asher choked.
Alix added:
— Do you want us to clarify that you will be dressed in very… suggestive outfits?
— No no no! Miria panicked.
Asher turned the bottle.
She ran into Kira.
Karma had just woken up.
—So, my dear Kira… truth or dare? Asher asked with an amused smile.
- Truth.
— Do you like Eiden?
Kira remained frozen.
— So finally… action.
"Very good," Asher said.
—You're going to wear an outfit from the special game box... then sit on Eiden's lap until everyone has played.
Kira went to search the box and came back… wearing a transparent, tight-fitting nightie.
Eiden remained motionless, shocked, almost suffocating.
Around them, the looks of Asher and Bryan silently ordered him:
Sit down.
She did so, red as a tomato.
The bottle spun again.
She fell on Bryan.
Kira smiles.
—Bryan…truth or dare?
— I've always been a bit perverted… so action.
— Perfect: I order you to slap Alix.
Bryan blinked.
— Where?
Eiden replied with a smile:
— According to you.
Bryan nodded, stood up…and gave Alix a sound spank.
—BRYAN!! she screamed.
— NO BUT IT'S NOT OK?!
He shrugged his shoulders.
"You know very well that I had no choice.
— THAT'S NO REASON!
Bryan pulled her against him, voice low and slightly provocative:
— Stop… you know you like it.
Alix turned red from ear to ear.
— N-not at all! And you… you exaggerate all the time! I…I—
"You're at a loss for words, my love," he smiled.
— You like that too.
— I don't like anything at all!
— Yes. Me.
He stroked her back.
—And everything that belongs to you belongs to me too.
—Bryan! We're in front of everyone!
—And then? he replied calmly.
— You are my wife. Nothing strange about me putting my hand wherever I want.
Alix seethed, oscillating between shame, annoyance and… something else.
— You... you'll see...
"I promise," Bryan whispered, "this evening I'll see everything.
Alix almost choked.
And around them, everyone burst out laughing.
