Chapter 82

**Kapittel 81**

**From Allison,** the group's eyes move to Hades who was walking towards her from behind, his aura completely menacing, terrifying, and hot. The boys flinched in nervousness because of his dominating presence but the girls stared at him with full admiration and liking.

"A...and you are?" Océane asked, completely dazed and lovestruck by Hades' Greek god-like features. Allison looked over at the ditzy, blushing teen and saw a small amount of saliva dripping from the corner of her mouth. He didn't answer the question and instead walked to the red-haired woman's side, snaked his arm around her small waist, and pulled her to him, slightly glaring at Alexandre whose proximity was close to his woman.

She looked at Oceané apologizingly and opened her mouth to answer the question, "He's Hades, my fr..."

"Fiancé," he cut her off, emphasizing the word whilst looking at the boys with his eyes glaring at them. She saw the boys' lips twitch and their bodies shook in fear as silence then came its way and started to celebrate loudly. She clandestinely reached for Hades' side and pinched it, which caused him to immediately look at her and for her to glare at him. He was acting like a beast marking a territory that wasn't his.

"So," Alissa, Khuleen's sister coughed, trying to kill the reigning silence. "It would be fine to have your company too, Hades."

He looked at her and nodded, then faced Allison again. "What do you say, baby?" he asked her, emphasizing the endearment baby whilst looking at the jealous yet intimidated boys.

"Well..." she trailed off, ignoring his nuance while biting her inner cheek. "If it's okay with you."

"Of course," he pulled her to him even more closely and softly presses his warm lips on her forehead. "Anything to make and keep you happy, my baby."

She turned her head and told the group, "You heard the man. We're joining."

The girls squealed in glee while the boys secretly cheered for her approval and swore for Hades' sudden arrival. They didn't know that the woman would be engaged at such an age. She may be of age more than twenty but she looked like an eighteen-year-old, though, with full breasts and a huge, pear-shaped ass.

"Come," said Delphine, and the group guided the couple to a place on the shore where there was a bonfire scorching heartily, radiating warmth in the gelid night. Allison caught a glance of an open cooler, exposing a handful of beers.

"Beer?" she mumbled in surprise, "I hope you guys aren't minors."

"We all age between 18 to 20," it was Alexandre who responded to her statement, much to her relief but made her wonder at the same time as they acted like teens in their first phase of puberty.

"Here we are," said Khuleen and each took their places to sit their butts on. Allison chose to sit where the cooler was near. For an unknown reason, her body was itching for booze.

"That was audacious of you, Hades," she told Hades who sat beside her.

"What have I done, love?" he asked innocently, his face contorting in confusion. He was acting completely clueless of what she meant, though he did otherwise. She only rolled her eyes at him before turning to Stijn who was offering her an opened beer fresh out from the cooler, his eyes hoping that she would take it. She enthusiastically accepted it, too polite to decline it and she planned on asking for some anyway.

Just like any other generic truth or dare game, Alissa, being the oldest, would take charge of spinning the bottle, then whoever would get pointed by the bottle's round rim, he/she would pick if was it going to be truth or dare then pick a person who would ask a question if truth or give a dare if the one who got pointed picked dare.

"All right, here we go!" announced Alissa and then spun the bottle. They watched the bottle spin round and round hastily until it gradually lost its speed, spinning slowly, until it stopped, pointing at Allison.

"Allison," said Alissa with her hard French accent, looking at the woman with something glinting in her eyes.

"Dare," she immediately answered before chugging down her beer. Ever since time immemorial, whenever she was asked to choose between truth or dare, she always chose truth, but tonight, she was seeking fun and thrill. Maybe this was an effect after a few chugs of beer, and she thought it was early to be tipsy.

"Pick the person you wish to give you a dare," said the leader of the game.

"Allison! Pick me! Pick me!" Valentin requested loudly, raising his arm like some student asking for his teacher to call his name.

"No, Allison! Pick me please!" shouted Stijn, the red-haired guy.

She roamed her eyes around, searching for a suitable person to give her a suitable dare.

"Baby, pick me," she heard someone say and felt an enormous, warm hand tugging hers. She looked down and saw Hades looking at her with his eyes pleading but she just stuck her tongue at him before saying the person's name she had chosen, "Khuleen."

The boys grunted and the girls stiffened. She looked at the girls in confusion because of their odd reaction. The side of Khuleen's lip tugged into a faint, lopsided smile, and said her dare, looking at Allison with amusement flaming her eyes. "Allison, I dare you to give Hades a hickey."

The girls squealed in mushiness while the boys winced in disgust and jealousy, thinking how lucky Hades was and cursing at their friend for giving the dare. While her jaw dropped on the grainy sand, and so did her heart in surprise. All the blood in her system flew up to her cheeks and ears, causing them to heat up and grow deep scarlet like a ripe strawberry in the cold place of Tennessee. Her stance remained as stiff as a rock, however.

'Give Hades a hickey?' she thought. She stared dumbfoundedly at Khuleen who was looking at her with daring eyes. The girl looked so young with her tender, soft heart-shaped face, huge, doe-like eyes, small nose, and plump, pale lips. Looks could really be deceiving. She looked deep into the girl's eyes and saw something in them. Something puzzling, something that she could not name. She knew that it was already at the tip of her tongue but she really couldn't name it. So that was why they winced when she picked her, the latter was actually up to something terrifying. Kids really were terrifying these days.

She reluctantly looked at Hades and saw a victorious ghost smile sketched on his face. But she failed to notice how the man's eyes sparkled brightly in excitement as his muscles twitched, itching to get a hold of her, pull her to his lap and make her do her steamy dare. Internally, he planned to thank Khuleen for giving her such a dare.

"Well, Allison?"
