Play Nice But Win Novels & Stories

She smirked, proudly. Before I could speak a word, she added. “You should know that before you can beat me in this dice game then you've to keep winning in parallel with one loss, but is it possible?” It was clearly a reminder. Rolling my eyes, I spoke. “Enough of speaking. Let's continue. I feel I could beat her after all I had mastered how the game is played.” So from that moment, we continued playing the game. Win Win Win Surprisingly to Mara and not me, I kept on winning. As we played, Mara's face kept twitching with every win I had. I smirked happily watching her dejected expression. It pleases me so much.

As Jace took down three more from the opposing team, I checked my watch, two minutes left till he won. I got up from the floor, “Look how close you are to winning.” “I said get down.” I stepped between him and the pillar he was resting his gun on. “Are you sure you want to win? Losing isn’t so bad is it? Besides, it's just a kiss.” My body hummed in anticipation and my tongue darted out to wet my lips. Jace’s eyes followed it. “I wouldn’t mind if you wanted to do more though.” My fingers stroked his blaster, and he shocked in a sharp breath. There was something so addictive about watching his reaction to me. So different from the looks he normally threw in my direction.

He then peered off onto one of the safe back roads. I looked back and saw Faye closing in on me. My girls weren't too far behind. "So, this is how you want to play? A peasant wants my throne, but let me show you how a Queen rules. A true Queen never uses such cheap tactics to win." I flipped the clear tab and pressed the green button underneath. "Nitro has been activated." "Catch me if you can bitch."

Wait, he used to think Abhaya was the only one in front of him, but he thought it was Kianna and it was a different person. That's a different kind of game. He bitterly smiled. He enjoys games as well, and if Abhaya wishes to play, he will oblige. They'll play, and he's now the favorite. He ensures that he wins in the end, and that whoever is supposed to lose in the game is the loser.

Dominic POV I knew that a loser had no right to refuse at the poker table, so she smiled and asked, "So, Dominic, how do you want to play?" Her smile was enchanting, with her smoky eye makeup accentuating her charm in a way that was hard to describe. I often couldn't deny that she was indeed beautiful. She had all the curves a woman should have, and they were on full display. Though I was quite picky, she fit my aesthetic perfectly. Every time I returned from a business trip, we would inevitably share some intimate moments, but it was always purely physical, never emotional. Seeing her like this stirred something inexplicable within me. I tugged at my shirt collar, feeling a bit overheated.

Nanginginig kong inabot kay Zykiel ang PT dahil hindi ko kayang tingnan, baka magkamali ako. Tinanggap ni Zykiel ang PT at gaya ko ay nanginginig rin siya. Pinanood ko ang reaksyon sa mukha niya habang dahandahan niyang sinisilip ang PT. Umawang ang labi niya at bigla nalang lumaylay ang balikat niya kaya nagtaka ako. Negative kaya? Pati ang kambal ay biglang sumimangot. Akmang aagawin ko kay Zykiel ang PT nang bigla nalang siyang sumigaw. . "Ah! Positive! Positive babe! Positive!" Sigaw niya kaya napanganga ako. Ano daw? Hindi parin ako makapaniwala nang bigla nalang niya akong buhatin at pinaghahalikan sa buong mukha.

Who knows, maybe he won against him long time ago. Even so, he still can't do it due to his pride. It is telling him that a win in a dirty game is not a reward but a curse. A curse telling him that no matter how best he did, he will just use trickery to win. Winning not square fair, it is but an act of a coward person. It is but an act of a foolish guy. It is but an act of a person who is afraid of loosing. No matter how best they are, no matter how good they have been, to win unjust is something that Lewis can't tolerate.

Winnie and Jake are roaring and shouting in victory. "Yes!" Winnie holds up her arms while Jake spins her around in a circle in the water. "We won! We fucking won!" Alice comes up from the surface next to me, blind as a mole and coughing while smiling. Such a little champ. "Congratulations!" "Aw, so you're not a sore loser?" Winnie asks. "No," Alice laughs. "You won fair and square!" "That's cute," Winnie says, tapping Jake on his head. "Good work, slave!"

Natalie…" I walked past him and continued on my way. This time, he didn't follow. When I reached the intersection, Ivy sent me a message. "Ms. Lawson, we're playing a mystery box game at tomorrow's team-building event. Are you coming? I heard everyone's guaranteed to win a prize!" Looking at those words, I smiled and replied, "I'll be there." The next day, I drew a small card at the company team-building event. It didn't say, "Thank you for participating." Instead, it read, "Today's Lucky Winner."

My grip locked on the upper edge of the stick as I relished this moment once again. "It's been a while, huh?" Cole winked and I bobbed my head. We soon got to playing. It amazed me though that even though it had been a while since I played, I still had my moves together. What started off as a friendly chat over the play soon turned intense... in a friendly manner too. In Cole's dramatic words, "I am done playing nice! Get ready for my fire." That was after I had won against him twice. I shook my head and went again for a third round in which he won and jubilated.
