"I didn't wear one."

Someone approaches from behind me and tugs on my shirt, attempting to pull it up. I shriek and try to run for the water as I panic about the marks on my body, hearing a rip as I manage to escape the hold.

"What the fuck was that?" Riley laughs, and as I jump in the water and turn to face them, I see him standing there, holding a piece of the fabric from my shirt.

"You ripped my shirt?"

"I was trying to take it off."

"I didn't want it off!" I argue before submerging my head in the water in the hopes that he didn’t rip a part where any marks are visible.

However, by the time I come up for air, the drugs have fogged my mind, eliminated all logical thoughts, and transformed me into a person who doesn’t give a fuck about what’s going on around her. Melanie swims up to me while the guys chat among themselves, grinning mischievously. She keeps watching Riley while talking to me.

"Girl, what do you think about the guys so far?"

"I don't know. They're alright, I guess."I look over at Blade and Saint with a subtle shrug.

"Stop playing, Scarlett. I can tell you've got the hots for those brothers, but because River is here, you're being weird about it."

“Well, it is weird, Mel. River and I-"

"You guys broke up months ago, and his ass has already moved onover and over, if you know what I mean. So why can't you?" Her statement stabs me in the heart as she smiles at me with narrowed eyes.

I didn't know River was already fucking other people, but I'm not surprised. I didn't give him any, so of course he ran to the girls who would.

My attention is drawn to Blade, who maintains a sinister grin on his full lips. Even though I’m submerged in water, my body trembles, and heat accumulates between my thighs.There's something about those two... but what?

"So, are you going toplaytheir game when they find you?" she asks, winking amusingly.

"Fuck it. Why not, right?"

"That's my girl!" she exclaims, wrapping her arms around me. We swim back toward the shore, eager to see what all the fuss is about. I mean, it's just adult manhunt, right? How exciting can it really be?

The Bloody River

Saint

Ihave to adjust my cock a few times as I watch Scarlett come out of the water, and I catch a glimpse of the boys doing the same thing, including River for fucksake.He had her, but he lost her; it's too late for him.I mutter an angry snarl.

She and Melanie are walking up the grass with their bodies dripping wet and glistening in the moonlight, and she keeps her eyes fixed on Blade and me the entire time. Birds scatter across the midnight sky, their wings spread wide, some blocking the light, creating an eerie atmosphere.

"Cooled off now?" Nixon asks, one corner of his mouth pulling up to meet his eye—his trademark devilish smirk.

"Oh, yeah. I feelsomuch better." As she picks up a beer bottle that has been spiked, Scarlett speaks, taking a sizable gulp that drips from her bottom lip and runs down her chin.

"Good, are you ready to play?" I ask, rubbing my hands collectively, eager to get things going.

"Yes!!" They all shout, their enthusiasm surging as the drugs amp them up even more.

"All right, let me go over the rules again. Blade and I will be the hunters, with the five of you as our prey..." We grin, watching their expressions as they listen intently to the rules.

"You'll hide, and we'll search for you. As we findyou, you'll have to do something thatwe want, andthen you'll join us in finding the others. Thelastperson to be found is the winner. Got it?" I nod subtly and smile at Riley and Nixon, knowing the result of the game, before turning to the group.

"This sounds so fun!" Melanie squeals again, still sounding like a pig.

"Get fucking going, y'all. You don't want us to find you...Trust me."I make a joke, but only the boys know I’m not.
