Pick A Number Novels & Stories

She must be number sixteen or seventeen. "Number one!" the emcee calls out. "Please choose your partner!" A tall woman with short hair steps forward. She points at one of the athletic-looking men, the one who did well in the running competition. "I choose him." Before the man can even react, another woman steps forward. "Wait! I'm number two, and I also want him as my partner!" And then a third woman pushes her way forward. "I'm number four, and I choose him too!"

Several people didn't wake up. We decided as a group to bury them underneath some branches in the edge of the forest. I counted twenty-seven bodies. What stood out to me was that they all had smiles on their faces, even in their still slumber. They looked so peaceful, I almost felt envious. One girl mumbled a prayer in a language I didn't recognize. She rested on her knees and closed each one of their eyes while she touched her forehead, sternum, and both of her shoulders in a specific order.

"Idiot. Don't you dare go getting designs on the little lady. If my nose is correct, she's spoken for." "I can smell that. So what if she already chose Gavin? Pack law says she can have up to three more." Parker's brown eyes lifted to catch his in the rearview mirror. "And the new law states that she gets to choose." "I know, which is why I intend to court her." "Get in line, then, because I know this woman is meant to be my mate, and I get the feeling, despite his attitude, that Wyatt's going to be vying for her attention."

Marcus just waited for her affirmative answer, he said something that Calantha couldn't believe. “I want your pheromones.”

Charlie said, “Hey, I am your loyal player, can you please be merciful? Please undo my punishment, just this once!” Claire pondered for a moment and said, “Dear, since you are indeed our loyal customer, after discussion, we have decided to give you another chance to choose the random chest again.” Then, she cleared her throat and started, “To open the treasure chest, please press one, and to give up the treasure chest, please press two.” Charlie answered, “Two! I choose two!” Claire said, “Unfortunately, you have missed the hidden random treasure chest this round. Is there anything else I can assist you with?”
