(Subplot) Giving in to Temptation

Melanie was more than a little dismayed when she found herself being teleported once again. She thought that the app had been successfully rigged by Maggie'a AI and she was at the very least on hiatus from MDA. However, she quickly realised that she had in fact arrived at the mansion ahead of the others. Though she hadn't landed in her own room. Or even Chantelle's.

"Hey Mel!"

"Laura?" Mel's eyes widened in surprise at this development. When Laura said earlier that she doubted she could resist taking advantage of the glitches' current ownership of MDA, Mel had assumed she had been joking "Aren't you missing the party?"

"This is the party as far as I'm concerned" Laura smirked "I told Liv and Anna I had a headache and needed to rest, so we won't be disturbed. It will just be me, you, and that delightful app of yours.

"You can't be serious?"

"Of course I am! When I was on Naked Forever and that was rigged by the glitches, Lucy used to hire me constantly. Now it's my turn. And at least I don't have a major domination kink like that girl does"

"What, Lucy? Really?" Mel wrinkled her nose in surprise.

"Oh, like you wouldn't believe" Laura raised her eyebrows and nodded to indicate she wasn't kidding "Anyway, luckily for you she hasn't given in to temptation regarding your situation - yet. And I'm very consensual"

"This doesn't feel very consensual, Laura" Melanie retorted.

"Oh, but it is. I have one very simple rule for our time here. If I ask you to do anything and you don't want to, then I am ordering you here and now not to, just so we are clear"

"Then this will be easy. No offence Laura, but I don't want to do anything related to this app for you" Mel answered, folding her arms. Her love life was messy enough as it was without adding a kinky encounter with a friend into the mix.

"I'm not sure you understand Mel. I don't mean if you don't think something is a good idea, or you think it might be embarrassing, or immoral or whatever. I mean, if deep down, if nobody was watching and there were no consequences, if at least a part of you would desire it or find it hot, then you do it!"

"This is so stupid Laura. What if Chantelle finds out?"

"When I was on Naked Forever, Chantelle turned me into a gerbil for the best part of a week, and that was definitely not consensual. So I don't really give a shit what she thinks. Besides, this is supposed to be fun for both of us. We need to loosen you up a bit Mel! I don't understand how someone who has been through everything you have these past couple of years can still be, when all is said and done, a bit of a prude"

"I'm so not a prude!" Melanie's face reddened a little in a mixture of annoyance and embarrassment.

"Then you won't mind giving this a go" Laura reasoned "A bit of naughty fun between friends. I'm making you do it so you won't have to feel any guilt, and I promise what happens in this room stays in this room. But, you know the rules. If you don't want to try this then you are completely free to leave and go and enjoy the party. You only have to stay if what I'm proposing is something that you are interested in exploring. So, what do you say?"

Melanie didn't say anything. Her face reddened further as it became clear that she was not leaving. Laura laughed a little smugly.

"You see? You are just as into this idea as I am, you just wish you weren't. So lets explore just how kinky you really are when the brakes are off!"
