Fated To Not Just One, But Three

Chapter 134: Game

Olivia's POV

Alpha Callum led up through a set of double doors at the far end of the ballroom. The hallway was dimly lit and silent. My heart thudded in my chest as we approached another set of doors. I had never done something like this, but I knew these games were dangerous.

He pushed the doors open, revealing a luxurious, intimate space. A large round table sat in the center of the room, surrounded by plush chairs. Against one wall, a decadent bed with silk sheets and velvet pillows loomed, and scattered around were various items—candles, a bar stocked with fine liquor, and a collection of objects I couldn't quite identify but that sent my imagination spiraling.

Callum turned to us, his gaze sweeping over the group. "Welcome," he said, his voice casual. "This is where we'll play tonight's game. As I said before, this is not for the faint of heart. Whatever happens here stays here. No judgment, no repercussions, no gossip."

The group murmured in agreement, though I noticed several nervous glances exchanged. I counted the participants with my eyes—ten men, including Lennox and Callum, and four women. The ratio was disturbing, but I kept my expression neutral, refusing to let my discomfort show.

Alpha Callum gestured to the chairs around the table. "Take your seats," he said. "The rules are simple: truth or dare. You can refuse, but there's a penalty —you will drink the whiskey, a full glass."

The group began to settle, and I found myself between a Luna I didn't recognize and Callum himself. Lennox sat directly across from me. His gaze locked onto mine with an intensity that made my skin prickle. I refused to look away, lifting my chin in defiance.

"Do you know the kind of things they do in such games?" Lennox murmured at me, while our eyes were still interlocked.

A shiver ran down my spine, but I replied coolly, "I can't wait to find out."

Callum clapped his hands once, drawing my attention back. "Before we begin," he said, "a few ground rules. First, this is meant to be fun. If anyone feels uncomfortable, speak up now and leave. Second, there is no outside interference. This is a game for adults, and we're all here willingly. Lastly, remember: what happens here stays here."

The group nodded in agreement, though some men exchanged sly smiles. Callum's gaze lingered on me briefly before he turned back to address everyone. "Let's begin."

My heart thundered in my chest as the bottle spun, but luckily, the neck pointed at a lady while the edge pointed at Alpha Callum.

A soft chuckle escaped Callum's lips as he leaned back in his chair. "Truth or dare, Luna Moriti."

The Luna smirked, glancing at the man beside her, whom I assumed was her husband. "Dare," she announced with a sly smile while I swallowed hard, my eyes meeting Lennox's. I could see the silent pleas in his eyes urging me to stand up and let's leave, but I looked away.

"Hmmm." Alpha Callum smirked and gently caressed his beard. An awkward silence hung in the air as everyone waited for him to speak.

"Undress and remain naked for the next two minutes," he Dared

I tensed, my pulse quickening. Nudity wasn't a big deal for werewolves; we stripped freely before shifting, often in the presence of others.

"Easy task." Luna Moroti gracefully stood up and slowly began taking off her clothes. My eyes drifted to the man beside her, and I was expecting him to look angry or annoyed, at least, but he wasn't. Instead, he had an amused smirk on his face.
