Make-believe Game Novels & Stories

Elaine and Tony had passed on that idea so that just left Blake, Brock, Andrea and Melissa. Andrea said that it’s weird to play drinking games with her brothers, so she left to go up to bed. Which loosely translated she was going to go FaceTime her friends. That left Melissa, Blake and Brock. “Ok so how about we play monopoly with a twist?” Blake suggested. Brock and Blake explained the rules. When you land on another’s property the owner of said property tells you how much the rent is and what to drink, you pay the rent and chug a drink.

“Why don’t you join us? The kids were just saying they wanted to play a game.” “Oh, I’d love to,” she chirps, her eyes gleaming with that saccharine charm. “What kind of game?” I motion toward Hazel. “Tell her.” Hazel looks up with a bright smile. “It’s called truth or magic.” Rachelle laughs a little too quickly, her gaze flickering. “Oh, how fun.” The rules are simple—one person tells a truth, the other performs a “magic” trick. We invented it five minutes ago, just for her.

“We have to be patient. Let me play this from the shadows. If I move too fast, they’ll win.” Her instinct screamed against waiting every hour the rumors spread was another blow to her name but the intensity in his eyes made her pause. “And in the meantime?” she asked. “In the meantime, we make them believe they’re winning,” he said. “Then, when they’re comfortable, we strike.” Later that night, Callie sat alone in her apartment, replaying his words. She wanted to believe in his plan, but the thought of being painted as a fraud for even one more day made her skin crawl.

But since it was Caleb’s choice, she searched for the game and gave the console to the child. “Help me play this, okay?” Caleb said with a puppy look on his face. “No problem. I’ll help you with all that I can!” Bea looked determined and excited as the game started. The two watched the tutorial carefully. She smiled when she realized that it was a farming game with the goal of making a farm prosper and building up a town. “Wow. I thought this was a ghost town…” Caleb mumbled. “Could there be a town as bad as this?” “Well, that’s the point of the game after all.” Bea chuckled.

he asked, and I frowned, giving him an I know what you are trying to do look, and he laughed. I gaped at him, the rich sound of his laughter warming my heart. "I won't fall for your scheme, Belshar. Prepare to be seduced," I said, then boldly hiked up the dress I was wearing, and I watched as his gaze dropped to my thighs. "Wanna play a game?" He asked, his eyes moving to my face, and I arched a brow. "What kind of game, Belshar" "Rock paper scissors. If I win, you just spend time with me without trying to drive me crazy and if you win, you can do whatever you want"

Gabriel POV I blink. How on earth does she know that? And as if she can read my mind, she splashes some water on me. "It's easy to read you, Gabriel. Let's start the game." Last time I checked, I'm an excellent poker player. I rub my face to clean my head from 'inappropriate fantasy' like she said. "Okay. What do you want to play?" "The game is called past tense." "Past tense?" "Yes. We're going to talk about our past. So it's called past tense."

“Gardner, I’ll give you another one. I’ll give you three more. For the sake of our many years of friendship, don’t make things so difficult for me. Please, Ajay, I’m usually nice to you. Please help me out. Weston, please help me out. The next level is likely to be a multiplayer game. Yes, it’s a multiplayer game. If you kill me, it won’t be good for you. You can’t kill me!” Belina’s face was full of tears as she cried and pleaded. However, her companions’ faces were cold, and none of them spoke up for her. Gardner’s cold face revealed a trace of a cold smile as he said, “Belina, what’s wrong with you? What nonsense are you talking about? How can we kill you? We are now a community of fates.

I was preparing to play against the guy I'd fallen in love with. Against the guy whose heart I'd broken. I honestly didn't know how the hell I was supposed to separate the two. I rubbed a hand over my face. "Damn it." Friday was going to be a fucking nightmare. I locked my phone and tossed it onto the bed beside me. I turned around and laid on my stomach. I buried my face in my pillow and let out a long, frustrated groan. This was the biggest game of the season. And with the form we were on and the form the Lions were on, everyone on the team truly believed we could win this time. They were excited. It was all they have been talking about.

I had thought I would calmly expose his lies, but my body couldn't help but tremble as I spoke. "You disgust me! Since that's the case, I'm done playing this game. Go, be happy with her." Shane didn't expect me to know the truth, and he couldn't even form a proper sentence. "W-What do you mean, you're done playing this game?" "I'll leave this world. I won't appear in front of you anymore." A trace of panic appeared on Shane's face. He clenched his fists, but with so many people around, he still forced a smile. "That's got to be a bluff! Your mission's not complete yet, so your sister will die!"

And above all… do your best to speak only truth, or the Game will know. Lies are the currency of the damned. ] Farrah took a deep breath as she carefully read the rules. This was her lifeline after all. She had basically just died from the car accident, and she didn’t want to die again. If there was a chance of survival, she might as well cling to it. Still, she couldn’t help but feel nervous. This simply felt too unreal. “This is insane…” she whispered. “It’s a nightmare. It has to be.”
