Aria’s POV

“Truth or dare? What are you live?” Jace scoffed

“Come on, it’ll be bfun/b! We’ve never yed before, and I’m sure Aria’s curious to learn more about Grayson, Delh bsaid/b, giving me ba /bpleading look

I hesitated. Truth is I did want to know more about Grayson. But from past Lexperience, I also knew he had serious boundary issues. I wasn’t sure if my questions would upset him.

Yet to my surprise Grayson agreed bfirst/b. “I’ve got nothing else to do. Sure.”

He sat down on bthe /bcouch, and I quickly took a seat next to bDelh/b, Jace still looked pissed as hell but he joined us eventually.

bA /bmaid brought over a beer bottle while Delh exined the rules: “I’ll spin the bottle. Whoever it points to has to choose truth or dare

We all went to high school. Just spin it balready/b,” Jace grumbled.

“Okay, here we go.”

She spun the bottle.

It twirled around several times beforending

on Grayson

“Truth,” he bsaid/b.

“Alright! I’m going bto /bbask /bsomething juicy,” Delh giggled. Then she fired away with her question. “Tell us. Have you ever had sex with more than one person in a day?”

I bnearly /bchoked on my blemonade/b.

Seriously, Delh? That’s what byou /bwant to ask your big brother???

He answered calmly, without hesitation, even giving her a pick–a–better–question–next–time look.

“Wow, bAria/b, you still want to hang out with bthis /byboy?” she wrinkled her nose.

I gave ban /bawkward smile.

I bknew /bGrayson had a past. It would be weird if he didn’t. I was just curious about how much more was out there that I didn’t know of.

Then Grayson spun the bottle. This time it pointed to me.

“Ask her about her bmost /brecent borgasm/b!” Delh blurted out.

I almost fainted. God, Delh! Why does everything have to be about sex with you?!

Though I did know the answer to that questionb….. /b

…I was sitting on a high table, legs spread wide apart for him. My pussy bin/bb–/bfull disy…His long bfingers /bmoved quickly bin /band out of me.. bHis /bsmoky gray eyes locked onto mine like fire. It made me cum so hard and so beasily/b…

“No, yo

you can’t bask /bthe question. It’s bAlpha /bbGrayson’s /bturn,” I cleared my bthroat /band nced at bGrayson/b.

He was staring at me too, his eyes a bit bdark/b.

I wondered if he bwas /balso thinking about the answer to that question.

b“/bAlright, Grayson, I’m giving you the right to bask /bthe bquestion/b. Make it a good one” Delh demanded.

9:48 AM ?

“Why did you break up with your ex?” he asked.

Oh now bthat’s /ba good question.

“Because he dumped me for a rich girl. He said I couldn’t help him in his career and that no man would want to get stuck with someone bas /bbroke as me.

Jace’s face turned ugly. He red like he wanted to kill me

“Wow, bwhat /ba jerk,” Delh gasped. “I can’t believe a guy would say that,”

“Actually, there are more men like this bthan /byou can imagine. Some might even be around us.”

I hoped she’d catch on, but bshe /bdidn’t. She simply bshook /bher head.

Awful. I bet he’s a spineless wuss. Please tell me you’re not still talking to him anymore.”

“ENOUGH!” Jace snarled, cutting us off. “God how long bare /bbyou /bbgoing /bto keep talking about this? It’s one question at a time,”

Delh pouted. I bspun /bthe bottle again, and this time it pointed to bJace/b.

I’m giving the right to ask the question to Delh,” I said. I knew Delh had her own issues she wanted to solve with Jace, and I was happy to bgive /bher the opportunity.

“No, you can’t do that,” Jace said darkly.

“Uh, what does the judge say?”

”

“The judge approves,” Delh said decisively, then bstared /bat her husband, “bJace/b, babe, when on earth are you going to introduce me to your parents?”

What? I blinked in surprise,

They’re already married, but she hasn’t met Jace’s parents?

Jace’s face tightened, irritated. “Are you kidding me? That’s what you want to ask in truth or dare?”

“Well, because every time I ask byou/b, you keep dodging. I just don’t get it. Do they even know about me?”

His voice was stiff, “Of course, habe. They’re just very busy, so they haven’t had time.”

bYou /bsaid they spend most of the year traveling in Europe. Now that we’re in Europe, let’s find a time to meet them. What do you bsay/b?”

I let out a bloud /bugh.

Sorry but I just couldn’t help it.

bOf /ball people, I know that was ba /bbig ass lie!

His parents traveling in Europe! Please. His mom bworks /bbas /ba cashier at a supermarket, and his dad is an alcoholic living on welfare. His only sister ran away at 15b, /band someer saw her bin /bbthe /bred–light district.

How bcould /bba /bfamily like that afford to travel in Europe?

“Something bwrong/b. bAria/b? Why youughed?” Delh gave me a suspicious look. Jace stared at me deathly.

“Oh, sorry, I… I choked. “I quickly took a bbig /bbsip /bof lemonade.

“Change the question, or I’m not ying anymore. Jace warned.

“Alright,” Delh pouted. “Then how about this…who was your first love? Why did you fall for her?”

My bbody /bstiffened.

This question might sound harmless. But Jace imed that his first love bwas /bme.

b2/4 /b

9:48 AM

“Well, bmy /bfirst love.”

Jace dragged out the words band /bnced at me. I quickly looked baway/b, Damn it, Jace, bstop /blooking!

“My first love was ba /bsweet and innocent girl. We supported each other through tough times in the big city. We beven /btalked about getting a dog together and moving to a suburban house with awn and a doggy door. Our favorite thing to do was hunt for vinyl records at fleat markets on weekendsb./bb”/bb” /b

My heart skipped a beat.

God those bgood /btimes. I can’t believe we really had those times.

I also can’t believe he still remembers.

“She sounds great. Seems like you two have a lot of history.” Delh sounded jealous.

Jace shrugged, “But then she turned into a bgold/b–digging bitch. Left me for a richer guy. I don’t regret it bat /ball.”

I clenched my ss tightly. You jerk,

Delh giggled and leaned over to kiss him. “Of course byou /bdon’t regret it, because now you’re with me.”

Jace finally got through that question. He spun the bottle again, and this btime /bit pointed to Grayson.

“I don’t have any questions,” Jace said.

“I’m sure Aria 1

has something she wants to bask/b,” Delh snickered

I did, but I bwas /bhesitant. I wasn’t sure which one was appropriate.

After a long pause, I finally chose my question:

“Do you still btalk /bto your ex?”

It was a bit of a loaded question.

Because I knew he bhad /bhookups. I just didn’t know if he had ever been in ba /bserious rtionship, especially bsince /bhe seemed to havemitment issues.

He nced at me lightly. “Yes.”

My heart sank. I hoped he’d say bmore/b, like what kind of bperson /bshe was, why they were together, and why they broke up.

But he didn’t seem interested in borating.

“On how’s bI /bdoing by the way?” Delh asked.

I? Is that his ex?

“Good. She’s been busy with her gallery,” he said.

“Oh, that’s wonderful. Next time shees bto /bRedstone, I’d love to visit her new exhibition,” Delh said cheerfully.

“I let her know.”

I felt like I had swallowed a lemon.

Grayson spun the boule again. This time, it pointed to Jace.

“Dare.“Jace said quickly. He probably didn’t want to give Delh another chance to interrogate him.

-Oh, you think you can get away that easily?” Dells giggled, thenmanded, b“/bShow bus /bba /bphoto of your ex–girlfriend.”

1 froze, and so did Jace. Even Grayson frowned.

“No way.” Jace quickly refused.

9:49 AM

Truth or dare doesn’t work blike /bthat. You can’t refuse.”

“I don’t have any photos of her on my phone

Then look her up on social bmedia/b. You remember her name right?”

b1 /bclenched bmy /bskirt nervously. Jace suddenly stood up and red at his wife, “bGod/b! Why the hell are you always so obsessed bwith /bthe past?”

“It’s just a harmless little joke. Why are you so angry?” she stood up too. “What are you afraid to show me? Are you still protecting her?

Now I have to know who she is!”
