I looked around the party hall as we entered; it was beautiful. "Welcome to our 30th mating party! Ladies and gentlemen, put on your masks! Now, may we have all the ladies come up here?" A woman, who I think was the MC, grabbed our attention. We all stood up and went to the stage. "Okay! We will be rating you on your strength and beauty to impress your mate." I just sat in my seat as I watched them participate, along with Jess, who also wasn't interested in finding another mate. The MC continued calling the names while I secured my mask on my face.

she teased. Once they completed each dare, they took another cocktail shot and continued the game. They really wanted to get wasted tonight. They decided to start with their song of choice, "Five Little Monkeys Mix." "Hey! Listen, you know the song, right? The Five Little Monkeys Mix? At first, take it slow when you pass it. Please don’t drop it," Meli exclaimed, explaining the rules. They were all listening, except for Kenzie, who seemed to disagree with everything Meli was saying.

I grunted. "Well, this one is important. Since you're new you might not know this, but everyone here is playing a death game. An assasination and survival game to be exact." "A 'what' game!?" I almost raised my voice, "What do you mean?" now saying it softer.

I might as well have some fun. "I'll tell you if you promise not to get an inferiority complex," I said sweetly. I ticked off the names my favorite celebrities. "Nate Reynolds, Asher Donovan, Rafael Pessoa..." Dante looked unimpressed. "I didn't realize you were such a big soccer fan." Asher Donovan and Rafael Pessoa both played for Holchester United in the UK. "I'm a soccer player fan," I corrected. "There's a difference."

"Fine, I'll tell you all you need to know". She said before she began. "This game is called, secret secret, and when playing this kind of game, no one else except the people playing it are supposed to know. That's why my voice was really low, because I didn't want anyone else to hear our discussion about the game rules". Mina explained. "Gosh, I'm a good liar!". She thought to herself.

"What are you playing?" Stella's face remained emotionless, as she played the game. "Escape Room – One Hundred Ways to Kill Your Boyfriend." Keegan was speechless. 'Is that... really the name of a game?' Keegan thought to himself for a moment. 'Even though I didn't do anything extraordinary tonight, it was at least acceptable, right? She has no reason to be sarcastic, does she? 'Maybe it's really just the name of a game.' Keegan asked, "How does this game work?"

I didn't exactly know what I was getting myself into but I need something to distract myself or I might end up doing something that will reveal our 'relationship' with the others. "What game?" he asked, his eyes boring straight to my soul. "Cham Cham Cham? The winner gets to flick the loser's forehead," I told him and he groaned. (Cham Cham Cham is a game also named as On-Two-Look in other countries. 2 players face each other, and player 1 points at player 2’s face and says “one, two, look.” And on the word “look” they point in a direction.

Muscles rippled and flexed beneath his white tee shirt, and it took me a moment to focus again on the words. “The game is called The Hunt,” he explained, drawing what looked like a half-empty bottle of wine from beneath his chair. He held it up and popped the cork, and I breathed a sigh of relief. Whatever the wine had to do with it, I could do it easily.

" I replied as I offered him a glass of wine. He drank from my hand as he took one of the bread and placed on my mouth. I moaned at the taste before I was suddenly picked up by the youths males and raised as they jubiliated. Darius laughed as they handed me to the women who quickly changed my clothes to be identical to there's and covered my hair before they explained the game.
