Swimsuit Edition Pt 2

Kaitlyn Peterson

Several hours had passed since the party began, and the atmosphere around the poolside had shifted from vibrant energy to a more relaxed and intimate vibe.

As the afternoon wore on, Kaitlyn offered to play them all a song. “My guitar was included with my clothes,” she explained.

“Well, that’s lucky,” Ji-Woo said with a hint of jealousy. “Except for attire, none of my possessions were included.”

Kaitlyn shrugged. “I always had it in my closet, so maybe that’s why,”

“Ooh, I wanna hear,” Tomoko clapped excitedly, splashing water everywhere as she paddled in place.

“Same! I can’t play for shit, so I want to hear what you got,” Elena laughed.

With a grin, Kaitlyn disappeared briefly, returning with her prized instrument.

Settling into a cozy corner by the pool, Kaitlyn took a deep breath, and began playing. Her fingers caressing her guitar strings with practiced ease.

With each guitar strum, Kaitlyn felt the tension building up inside her melt away. The terror of her abduction, the stress of the game, the heartbreak from her sister’s rejection. The familiar melodies became a form of therapy, a way for her to escape the world’s worries and immerse herself in the present moment.

Levi, lounging on a nearby chair, was also captivated by the sweet sounds. The music filled him with a sense of calm. He had no idea that Kaitlyn could play an instrument, let alone one so skillfully.

Unfortunately, his serenity didn't last long.

“Mind if I sit with ya?” Tomoko asked, breaking Levi from his trance. He hadn’t even noticed her approaching him. She was still dripping wet, having just exited the water.

“I mean, there’s not a lot of room,” Levi said, gesturing to the thin lounge chair.

Tomoko winked flirtatiously. “I know. Perfect for cudlin’”

Levi blushed, momentarily forgetting his role in the game. “I mean, maybe we can just sit around and talk first?” he offered.

Tomoko rubbed the back of her neck. “Sure, I guess. I wanted to chat with ya about our son anyway.”

“Actually, cuddling sounds good,” Levi backtracked.

Tomoko beamed and flopped down into the chair. She wrapped her arms around him and pressed her buxom body against him like he was a pillow.

Levi's body reddened. He could feel her pillow breasts squishing against his arm and even a hint of her crotch against his leg. "That's... uh... wow..." He could feel himself hardening and prayed that no one could see it.

A few minutes later, his hand began to fall asleep, as he realized her thigh was pressing down on it, cutting off the circulation.

"H-hey, can you scoot over a bit? You're crushing my hand. Hello?"

The only response he got was a loud snore. He discovered in shock that Tomoko had dozed off, still tightly holding him in her busty embrace.

'S-seriously? Already? Wait, is she drunk again?'

Sophia Maoulin

Sophia sat alone at the pool's edge. The world was blurry; the girl had put her glasses away hours before to avoid water damage. Since the end of lunch, the introvert had mainly been swimming alone. Occasionally, she reinserted herself into the action but drifted away when she realized she wasn't adding anything to the conversation.

She looked shyly at the cloudy forms of Levi and Tomoko. She couldn't even fully them make out but recognized enough to get the picture that they were hugging each other intimately. What little words she could overhear from this distance had made it clear.

She couldn't help but let her mind retreat into daydreams, into a world where things made more sense, and she didn't feel so out of place.

Due to her fantasies and blurred vision, she didn't notice the massive woman approaching her.

“Hey!” Elena greeted. “Why ya sitting all by yourself, Soh?”

Snapping back to reality, Sophia couldn't help but feel bothered by the new nickname, though she didn't mention it. “I’m not great with parties,” she admitted.

“It’s not a party. We’re just handing out,” Elena explained encouragingly.

Sophia glanced at Tomoko, cuddling with Levi. “Not sure that’s exactly what I’d call it.”

Elena clucked her tongue. “Oh, don’t worry. You don’t have to be as **** as her. Just go talk to him.”

“I’m not great at talking either.”

Elena, remembering Sophia's passionate explanations, raised an eyebrow in confusion. “What are you talking about?! You’re probably the biggest chatterbox here.”

“I mean, about some things. But I’ve tried twice with him and can never start a good conversation. We have nothing in common.”

As she spoke, Sophia got an idea. She turned to the Amazon and asked, “You’re friends with him. Do you know what video games he plays?”

Elena ran her massive hand through her thick hair, thinking. “It’s been a long time. We used to play Mario Kart, but I wonder if he’s still into it.”

"Ok… hmm… Mario Kart. I may be able to work out a script with that,” Sophia considered.

Elena laughed. “You’re overthinking it, girl! Just speak to him.”

“It’s not that simple.”

“It is! You just need to get out of your shell!”

“Don’t patronize me!” She spat, Elena unknowingly hitting a nerve.

Elena felt a primal instinct to snap back at Sophia’s sudden aggression but managed to keep it under control. “Apologies. Did I say something wrong?”

“No, I’m sorry. It’s just that everyone always says that, and it’s not helpful,” Sophia explained. “They act like words will magically fix things.”

A moment of silence followed as both were unsure what to say. Abruptly, Elena broke the quiet with a big grin on her face. “You’re right. We need to stop talking and start doing.”

“What?”

Elena wracked her brain, trying to find an analogy. “You know, the best way to learn to make a parachute is to do it after you’ve jumped out the plane!”

“That’s not an expression. It doesn’t even..” Sophia began, but Elena interrupted.

“Here, let me help you!”

Without warning, Elena effortlessly scooped Sophia into her arms like a tiny kitten.

“Wait! WTF! Put me down!” Sophia hollered, kicking her legs fruitlessly.

All eyes fell on them as the giant woman carried the girl through the water toward Levi. That is, all eyes except Tomoko, who continued dozing.

‘The hell is this?’ Kaitlyn wondered, having stopped playing to observe.

“Uh, what are you doing?” Levi questioned as Elena approached, still trapped within the Japanese woman’s embrace.

Elena did not answer. Having reached her destination, she set Sophia down—or at least she tried to. But as soon as her grip loosened, the squirming girl fell face first into the water.

Moments later, she emerged. “God, I got water in my eyes,” she complained, squinting.

“Sophia wanted to say hi,” Elena explained to Levi, hoisting herself onto land with a single push. She then reached her hand out to Sophia to help her up as well.

“Uh, yeah. Hi,” Sophia said, taking the hand and getting plopped onto the ground.

For the third time that day, Sophia found herself in front of the boy, trying to figure out how to talk with him. ‘I must be in a time loop,’ she thought.

She took a deep breath and blurted, “What kind of Mario Kart are you?”

“Huh?”

“I mean, what Mario Kart do you like?”

Levi smiled. "Oh, I guess Mario Kart 64. That was the first one I owned as a kid, and I have a lot of great memories. I remember one Thanksgiving where I..."

As Levi spoke, Sophia couldn’t help but stare at Tomoko, who had Levi locked in a hug, pressing her bosom onto his bare arm. ‘God, she’s so gorgeous. And I’m supposed to compete with her?’

She looked around, noting that she was the only girl here not wearing a bikini. All of them were beautiful or sexy in their own way, competing with her in a game of seduction. What chance did she possibly have?

‘I’m freaking talking to him about a video game, for god’s sake. He must think I’m so boring.’

“...I always fall off Rainbow Road turn, though,” Levi continued, oblivious that Sophia wasn’t listening.

The girl continued to spiral. ‘There’s no way he actually cares. This whole game is just a beauty contest. What sex appeal do I possibly have? The only times I've been sexy were when my compulsion **** us together. Is that what he likes?’

“I do like Double Dash too,” Levi explained, “Though just got it and never had another person to play with.”

Elena grinned. “Oh, me too. Maybe we can play together,”

‘Et tu, Elena?!’ Sophia thought.

Levi grinned at his friend. “Oh sure, I have a whole theater to play in. Of course, you saw that last night,”

Elena let out her barking laugh. “Oh yeah, we were going to play until we got distracted,” she winked.

‘Was that a double entendre?’ Sophia pondered in panic. ‘Wait, did they sleep together? But Azure said he was a virgin. Though maybe she lied. That would explain how Elena got so many points. But gah, I’m losing his attention. I gotta get it back. Gotta be sexy. Gotta… gotta…’

She moved without thinking. Reaching out, Sophia violently grabbed Levi’s free arm and brought his hand to her left breast. Levi’s eyes widened as he felt her modest boob and nip through her thin swimsuit.

Elena whistled, impressed. “Oh damn, Sophia.”

Sophia was looking to the ground, her face red as a tomato. “I know you felt my… chest… before, but it was a compulsion, and I…” she tried to explain to him. However, the embarrassment was getting too hard to bear.

She laughed unconvincingly and slapped Levi's hand away. “Oh, look at that! Another anime mind control thing!” she lied. “Uh, baka Levi… kun.”

“Are you…"

“I have to use the bathroom!” she shouted so loudly that it made the sleeping Tomoko groan. Before anyone could stop her, Sophia ran inside.

Watching her go, Kaitlyn thought, ‘I should check up on her,’ and took her feet out of the water, found a dry place to put her instrument, and went after her.

Elena Mendez

The Amazon felt a pang of guilt as she watched Sophia flee. “I may have been too aggressive,” she sighed, shaking her head. "You know, dragging her over here. That may have been a bit much."

‘That’s putting it mildly,’ Levi declared internally, though he kept it to himself.

Elena gestured to herself. “I’m still getting used to this. It’s like, I want to go all out,” She sighed a second time. “Maybe I need to…”

She stopped, staring off into the distance, as if just noticing something very important.

"Need to what?" Levi asked.

Elena did not respond. Her shoulders slouched and expression turned blank. Her eyes unfocused as she looked out with a blank gaze.

“El, you're scaring me” Levi cried.

Elena shook her head as if snapping out of a powerful daydream. “Oh sorry about that. Don't worry, I’m perfect.”

Elena sat down, flopping her butt down to the floor with an impact that made Levi's chair shake and finally wake up Tomoko.

“Huh, what?” the purple-haired woman stammered. Looking over to the Amazon, she smiled. “Oh, hey, Elena.”

Elena ignored her completely, focused entirely on Levi as if he were the only other person who existed. “Can I ask you something?” she questioned in a tone that sounded more like a threat than a request.

“Uh, sure,” he replied, suddenly nervous.

“Which of us are your favorites?”

His eyes widened. “What?”

“Your favorites. Which of us do you like best?” she repeated.

“That’s uh... very... I mean... I just met... It’s uh...” he stuttered. He looked over at Tomoko, hoping she would say something.

“Oh, hey, there’s no need to worry about hurtin’ my feelings,” Tomoko said, totally misreading the situation.

“That’s not...”

She let go of Levi and hopped to her feet, jiggling her assets in the process. “I’ll leave ya two alone so ya can chat,” she winked.

“Wait...” Levi started, but Tomoko had already jumped back into the water.

“Ok, it's just us now. Who is your favorite?” Elena asked once more, an obvious pang of impatience in her voice.

Levi couldn’t help but shiver under her gaze. “Uh... I guess... you?” Levi offered.

“Be serious!” she barked.

“I’m sorry! I... who do you want me to say?!”

“JUST TELL ME IF YOU LIKE JI-WOO BEST!” she roared.

Levi’s mouth hung open. Elena’s sudden shift was weird enough. But of all the things she could have asked, he never would have expected this.

“What? Why would you think that?” he asked in genuine bewilderment.

It was now Elena’s turn to look confused, as it replaced her anger. “What do you mean?” She gestured over to Ji-Woo, who was sitting out of earshot in a lounge chair, drinking an iced tea. "What's not to like about her?"

Levi had no idea what was going on. He had told her what Ji-Woo had done to him. She had been there for his secretary meeting. Elena even argued with Ji-Woo on Levi’s behalf. How could she possibly think Ji-Woo was his favorite?

“I... don’t like her,” Levi’s explained in a significant understatement.

Elena immediately looked sad. “That’s not nice of you, Levi. Ji-Woo is a wonderful person. She didn’t do anything to deserve your disapproval.”

“This is a prank, right?” Levi laughed. “You know why I don’t... I... she ruined my family.”

Elena frowned. “That’s not fair, Levi. You’re being selfish.”

“What?!”

“What your dad did was his own choice. She had nothing to do with it. It’s not fair for you to blame her.”

“I...”

“You just need to get to know her. You know she’s not that kind of woman.” Elena beamed, “She's really nice. In fact, she put this whole party together because she knew how much stress you were under.”

Levi gaped. “That's not the reason. This party isn’t about stress. It’s about points, right?”

“Well, yeah, a little bit,” Elena shrugged. “But even that was her looking out for us. She’s trying to get us all over the finish line. Honestly, she’s a great leader. I wish you could see that, Levi.”

Levi opened his mouth to say something, but it died in his throat. He simply had no idea how to react.

Sophia Maoulin

Sophia wandered the castle halls, her ears still burning in embarrassment. She was barefoot in her swimsuit and barely registered that she was she had left her glasses back at the pool. She was so deep into her thoughts that she probably wouldn’t be absorbing any of her surroundings even if she could see clearly.

‘Three shots. I had three shots today and blew all of them. What is wrong with me?’ she angsted.

So deep she was in her brooding that she nearly crashed into Lauren, who likewise wandered the halls while contemplating her situation.

“Watch it virgin!” Lauren snapped.

‘Oh good. This again,’ Sophia thought in annoyance. She figured she should probably be more offended, but it was hard to take it too personally when she knew Lauren was like this to everyone.

“Sorry, Your Highness,” she replied sarcastically, walking past the goth.

Lauren was about to let her go, but a thought occurred to her. “Hey vir… Sophia,” she called out without looking.

“What?”

Lauren turned to face her. “You’re a big nerd about the rules and everything, right?”

“I read the instructions, yes,” Sophia replied coolly.

Lauren took a deep breath. “What happens if I don’t go on the date?”

Sophia thought back to when she saw Elena late for her own date and the consequences it led to. “You’ll lose a bunch of points. Then they’ll take over your body and **** you to strut to the date anyway.”

Lauren looked to the ground. “Shit. Figured it’d be something like that,” she whispered.

While this talk was happening, Kaitlyn also wandered the halls nearby, having been looking for Sophia. Rounding the corner, she smiled as she saw the girl she was searching for. However, this turned to horror as she noticed Lauren there as well. Her sister’s words repeated in her mind, ‘JUST GO OFF AND DIE!’

Instinctively, she spun on her heel and hid behind the wall she had just turned from. Fortunately for her, neither of the two girls saw her.

Lauren returned her gaze to Sophia, oblivious to the new listener. “What about the challenges?”

“What about them?” Sophia asked.

“How many points are they worth?”

“No idea.”

“Is it possible to avoid elimination just through them?”

“Like I said, no idea.”

Lauren rolled her eyes. “Well, thanks for being useless.”

“I mean, I imagine they’re worth a good amount. Otherwise, Azure wouldn’t be hyping them so hard,” Sophia pondered, rubbing her head. She briefly considered how strange it was that, despite Lauren’s constant belittlement, she still felt more comfortable talking to her than Levi. Perhaps because her bitchiness was at least predictable.

Sophia added, “But relying on challenges alone doesn’t seem safe. That doesn’t give you much leeway.”

“I only need four points…” Lauren mumbled to herself.

“It still seems dangerous,” Sophia warned. You should at least try to get out of the negatives before you…”

“Shut the hell up, Virgin!”

“And we’re back to that. Well, at least ‘Sophia’ lasted all of 30 seconds.” Sophia snarked. She began to walk away but momentarily stopped to add, “If you get eliminated, I’m not rescuing you.”

Lauren let out a hollow laugh. “As if your nerd ass could.”

Still hiding, Kaitlyn clenched her fist. The relaxed serenity she had built up had been shattered by her overheard conversation.

Why was her sister so difficult? Couldn’t she see people were trying to help her? She had never been this stubborn before.

‘Are you sure about that?’ an internal voice asked her.

‘Of course I am,’ Kailyn countered back. ‘She’s just… never had to face something like this before.’

‘You mean, not getting what she wants?’ the first voice inquired.

‘You know what I mean. This game is cruel.’

‘You’re managing just fine. Stop making excuses for her.’ The voice added, ‘It’s ok to feel angry.’

Kaitlyn shook her head to clear it, not wanting to deal with this right now. No longer caring about Sophia, Kaitlyn returned to the party before her sister could find her.

Levi Summers

The young master had fully retreated into himself as Elena persisted in lecturing him on Ji-Woo. He was bewildered, angry, and slightly betrayed. Worst of all, though, he was starting to feel guilty. As much as he inherently rejected everything Elena said, a part of it was sticking.

‘Am I really being selfish for blaming her?’

“Honestly, I don’t think she gets enough respect. It’s so unfair how Azure treats her,” Elena explained.

“Uh huh,” Levi replied automatically, staring off into space. As he did, he saw Kaitlyn return. **** for any sort of distraction, he brought all of his attention to her, hoping to drown out Elena’s voice.

He could see from Kaitlyn’s face that she was upset as well. He watched as the girl rested her legs in the cool water and then looked over. Upon seeing him, Kaitlyn's demeanor changed as she flashed him a smile.

Before he could appreciate the gesture, a familiar intrusive thought reminded him of something: ‘The smile’s fake. She doesn’t actually like you. None of them do.’

It was a thought that had come up several times today, but he had managed to suppress it during the party due to how much fun he was having. But with the terrible mood Elena had put him in, it was louder than ever.

“Levi, are you listening? I asked you a question,” Elena barked, returning him to reality.

“Huh?”

Elena rolled her eyes. “I said, do you think you can apologize to her?”

“For what?” he asked flatly.

“For being rude to her.”

Levi clenched his fist. Elena raised her hands defensively, “Sorry, I know that sounds blunt. But this morning, I saw how you rejected and dismissed her. She was only trying to help.”

“Whatever,” Levi sighed through the anger and guilt. Then, he blurted, “I’m going to swim,” frantic for any excuse to escape. Elena felt a powerful urge to grab him, but she managed to suppress it.

He swam several laps, ignoring Tomoko and Kaitlyn when they called him. He knew he was backtracking on his responsibilities, but he just needed a moment to clear his head. He promised himself he would give them all his attention. He just required a few minutes of nobody talking or seducing him.

“HAI GUYZ!!!”

“Oh no,” Levi, as well as the other contestants, groaned.

Jezebel bounced out into the pool area with her familiar, vapid smile. “You guyz were having a party and didn’t invite ME?” she pouted, stomping her food and sending her entire body wobbling. “That’s, like, so totes rude!”

Kaitlyn was the first to respond, though she did so against her better judgment. “This was... uh... just for the contestants,” she explained.

Jezebel grinned stupidly at Kaitlyn, obviously ogling her chest and not listening. “OMG! You look soooo hawt in that bikini!” She reached out to cop a feel, but Kaitlyn stepped back in disgust.

Jezebel turned her head back and forth to look at all the girls. “Oh jebus! You all have such sexy suits! I can see your boobies! So hawt!”

Ji-Woo and Kaitlyn instinctively covered their cleavage. Meanwhile, only Tomoko seemed to not be creeped out.

She pointed at Elena. “‘Specially you, whoever you are! Your titties are almost as big as mine!”

Elena narrowed her eyes at Jezebel, unsure how to react.

“I got a swimsuit, too,” Jezebel proclaimed, gesturing to herself. “Watcha think?”

“You always wear that,” Tomoko pointed out.

Jezebel thought for a moment, something that looked like it was causing her much pain, and then wrapped the top of her head with her knuckles. “Oh yeah! L-O-L! Guess it ain’t a hawt swimsuit if it’s normal. Gotta go skimpier!”

She reached behind her back and undid her top. Her massive melons sprung free, flinging the fabric into the water. She then placed her hand back onto her hip and stood confidently.

“Holy shit!” Elena exclaimed

“My god,” Kaitlyn muttered.

“For goodness sake,” Ji-Woo sighed.

Tomoko said nothing. She simply gaped at the hypnotic sight before her. Even as someone who likes busty girls, this was insane.

Jezebel grinned proudly, interpreting their reactions as admiration and jealousy. She then looked down and noticed Levi, for the first time, floating in the pool and staring at her.

Her eyes widened. “Oh gawd! Master!” She licked her lips. “You’re not wearing a shirt... your chest is so hawt, Master.” She splashed into the water, letting it splash onto and down her massive breasts. She held herself up against the pools edge to stop her quivering knees. “You’re sooo sexy, master... so hawwwwtttttt,” she moaned, her body filling with lust and pussy fluttering.

Levi could only stare frozen, like a deer in headlights, as Jezebel slowly swam towards him, her entire face radiating with desire. "I neeeedddd you inside me" she panted.

Meanwhile, deep within her subconscious, John Booker screamed in distress and maddening arousal. ‘Ohh fuuckkk! Stop! Stop looking at him like that. Ah ahhh fuuuuccckkkk… so goood! NO, NOT GOOD! Ah... Ahhhh...at least look at the girls… I’m…. oohhhh goooddddd… I’m not gay!’

“Get away from him!” Ji-Woo shouted at the approaching Jezebel.

“Knock it off!” Kaitlyn WANTED to say. Instead, it came out flirtatiously as “Hell yeah! Have fun, Levi!”

“Help,” Levi whispered.

“THAT’S ENOUGH!” Elena bellowed. Having moved quickly with her massive legs, she ran up to Jezebel in the pool and grabbed her by the waist. She then spun and threw her several feet, submerging the blonde into the water.

“Thank you,” Levi declared.

“Yes, thank you, Ms. Mendez," Ji-Woo agreed, approaching the poolside.

Elena winked at Levi. “See, Ji-Woo really does care about you.”

Jezebel emerged from the water before any other words could be exchanged. She laughed. “Ooh la la! You like it rough, don’t ya, big lady?” She put her finger into her mouth. “Ya wanna punish me some more? I’ve been a baaaaaadddddd girl!”

“For god sake! Will you just get yourself off somewhere else!” Elena threatened.

Once again, Jezebel failed to detect any hostility. “Oh, that’s a good idea! Thanks!”

The jiggly blonde swam over to one of the water jets in the pool’s walls. Pressing her crotch against it, she began wailing in ecstasy. “OH MASTER! MASTER, MASTER, MAAAASSSSSTTTTEEEEERRRR!"

“Maybe we should move,” Ji-Woo suggested.

“God, you’re smart,” Elena smiled.

Kaitlyn, overhearing them, gestured to some tables in the corner, as far as possible from the moaning Jezebel. Without asking, Elena scooped up Levi and carried him, which he didn’t resist.

---

Kaitlyn Peterson

Kaitlyn sat first, followed by Elena, Levi, Tomoko, and Ji-Woo. After Elena set him down and he took a seat, Kaitlyn turned to Levi. “You know earlier when I said ‘have fun.’ You know I was **** to say that, right?”

“Yeah, don’t worry,” Levi reassured her.

Elena looked over at the masturbating bimbo. “Poor Jezebel. That Azure bitch really fucked her brain, huh?”

“Do you think there’s anything left of Jezebel in there?” Kaitlyn wondered though she had meant to say ‘John.’ She continued, “Azure said her free will would be suppressed. Maybe her brain wasn’t wiped, and she’s stuck inside her own...”

“Please stop. That’s too horrifying,” Tomoko expressed, in a rare showing of worry. Still, horror crept up everyone’s spine at the idea. Even the fearless Amazonian was unsettled.

Levi rubbed his arm. “Either way, I can’t believe that used to be John.”

“Wait, ya can say Jezebel?” Tomoko asked. “I mean... ya know, the girl... person... Jezebel... uh... always has been? Damn it, ya know what I’m trying to say.”

“Huh... yeah, I can say John,” Levi observed, not having even noticed.

“None of us can say it,” Elena pointed out.

“Probably ’cause he’s the master.” Tomoko speculated.

Kaitlyn looked down at her hands sadly. “In that case, Levi, you’re the only one who can tell Olivia.”

“Huh?”

“I found out this morning,” Kaitlyn explained. “Olivia is Jezebel’s sister.”

Levi’s heart sank. He had already known that Olivia had some connection with John, but Azure had yet to tell them precisely what it was. Just that Olivia was important to him. In retrospect, it should have been obvious. They both had the same last name, after all. Still, he had kept himself from thinking about it. Plus, his tormentor had always just been 'John' to him. He almost never thought of his last name.

Elena whistled. “Oh shit. This sucks.”

“And Olivia doesn’t know?” Tomoko asked as she looked at the Jezebel, the latter of whom was sexually chanting the names of Levi and all the contestants, including her own sisters.

“Olivia deserves to know,” Kaitlyn expressed.

“Agreed,” Elena nodded sadly. Moments later, she slapped Levi on the back, nearly sending him face first into the table. “Looks like it’s all on you buddy. Shit sucks, huh! But it’s the right thing to do.”

“But... I...” Levi stammered, trying to think of an excuse but coming up blank.

“That’s enough, Ms. Mendez,” Ji-Woo scolded. “Mr. Summers does not need to do so if he doesn't want to.”

“But he’s the only one who can,” Kaitlyn argued.

Ji-Woo shook her head. "Regardless, it's Mr. Summers decision. He is under no obligation to involve himself in the Booker family if he doesn't want to."

Kaitlyn pounded her fist onto the table. “Olivia's her sister! She has a right to know what Jezebel's going through!”

Elena rubbed her bicep in thought. “Actually, I agree with Ji-Woo.”

“What!?” Kaitlyn exclaimed. “You just said it was the right thing to do.”

Elena shrugged. “I changed my mind. Ji-Woo made a good point.”

Kaitlyn opened her mouth to argue, but at that moment, something astonishing happened. The stars above them bolted across the night sky, and the moon fell over the horizon. The orange sunrise light briefly illuminated the pool before the sun settled into its proper place, bringing the sky into the blue tones of late afternoon.

Elena’s eyes widened in alarm. She had lost track of time. Her three hours of night had just expired.

She got to her feet in panic, her form’s bravery waning. “See you guys later... I need to... oh no...”

She had been asleep the last time she had regressed, so for the first time, she experienced it fully. Her blood ran ice cold, and her joints locked up. She felt a sense of starvation extend throughout her body, not contained to just her stomach. It was as if every individual muscle was groaning from hunger.

Her strength and stature rapidly shrunk. While her prior growth had filled her with a feeling of exploding with strength and orgasmic energy, she now felt like a balloon weakly deflating. Her two-piece slipped to the ground, having been fit for a much larger frame. Her waves of hair retreated inward, settling into her modest ponytail.

Just as quickly as it began, it all stopped. Elena blinked several times to get her bearings before it hit her that she was standing nude in front of everyone.

She shrieked and covered herself with her arms. She instinctively wanted to grab a towel but knew it would make no difference due to the rules of her princess transformation.

“I’ll see you around!” she shouted, streaking into the hotel. Levi tried to look away but couldn’t help but glimpse her bare ass as she left him.

“Perhaps this is as good a time as any to wrap up,” Ji-Woo sighed.

“Yeah,” Tomoko agreed. She pointed her thumb at the screaming Jezebel. “Plus, I don’t wanna swim with her around.”

“We could do something else,” Kaitlyn suggested. Maybe we can find a room and play some cards.”

Ji-Woo shook her head. “I think Mr. Summers would like a break. This ordeal, while fun, has been tiring for him.”

Levi would have argued with Ji-Woo for speaking for him, but he had to admit she was right.

“Plus, Mr. Summers needs to prepare for his date with Ms. Peterson,” Ji-Woo concluded.

Both Levi and Kaitlyn felt their spirits plummet at the reminder.

An awkward silence followed, only broken by Alison’s sudden apparition in a two-piece swimsuit.

“I’m wearing swimwear as Azure requested,” Alison explained before anyone could ask.

“That was three hours ago,” Ji-Woo observed.

“Obligation met,” Alison said dismissively before vanishing once more.

“I can never read that girl,” Tomoko laughed, though no one else did.

Kaitlyn put a hand on Levi’s shoulder. He instinctively wanted to pull back but kept himself from doing so.

“Listen, Levi,” Kaitlyn said slowly. “When you go on your date... just... I... try to...” The words escaped her as a storm of emotions welled inside her. Moments later, she took her hand back and tried to keep herself from crying.

“I’ll do my best,” Levi said quietly. He had no idea about her recent fight with her sister, nor that she had set up their date in the first place, but he could tell how much pain the topic was causing her.

Kaitlyn nodded and returned inside before she could no longer contain the tears.

Levi looked over at Ji-Woo, feeling nervous about being alone with her. To his relief, she simply told him, “Feel free to go on ahead, Mr. Summers. I’ll wrap up things here.”

Levi let out a sigh of relief and walked away. 'Maybe she really is trying to help me?' he couldn't help but think.

---

Ji-Woo Summers

Ji-Woo sat alone for several minutes, waiting until she was sure no one else would come back out. She sat back and listened to Jezebel scream the loudest orgasm she had ever heard. She, of course, had no idea that John was in there, the sensation practically shattering his mind. Afterwards, the bimbo floated onto her back, and stared at the sky in a daze, while John slowly recovered his fractured mind.

Feeling safe now from interruptions, Ji-Woo walked over to a lounge chair she had previously occupied. Her discarded shorts and shirt laid in a pile underneath it. Next to the chair was a side table containing an empty iced tea atop a napkin.

She bent down and moved aside the napkin to reveal a card she had hidden underneath. If was faded, the words “USED” were printed at the bottom.

Wingman: 12 BP

On activation, select a contestant. For the next 12 hours, they will be compelled to advocate for you to others, especially to the master. During that time, they will be convinced of your qualities and cannot say anything negative about you.
