Arabella barely acknowledged Melissa and Timothy, who were still in the living room, before she eagerly pulled out her cell phone to call Paul.

She had to dial several times before Paul finally answered. His voice was filled with a cold indifference. “What is it?”

“We should meet.” Arabella said as her mind raced to figure out how to ensure Paul would uphold their deal.

In the hall, Logan, Oberon, Charlotte, Faye, and Coral were laughing and joking around with Vivienne.

“We use this empty bottle.” Logan placed a bottle and a cup filled with dares on the table. “Whoever the bottle points to gets to choose between truth or dare. But if you choose truth the first time, the second time you have to pick dare. No repeats. The dares are drawn from the cup.”

“Alright.” Vivienne was intrigued.
