Never Mix with Curses

The triple eighteenth birthday party took place at Holly's home, though she and her husband Brett had excused themselves to a hotel for the night. They both earned extremely well, which meant they owned a property large enough to accommodate several dozen teenagers in it's sizeable garden, which included a heated pool, thereby ensuring the inside of their house would remain untouched. They also had cleaners to sort out the inevitable mess before they even got back. They hadn't supplied any **** themselves, but weren't naive to the fact other guests would be bringing it. However, with Tammy being a non drinker, they at least felt assured their own kid wasn't going to get wasted. The fact it was a treble celebration, with each of the birthday girls able to invite their own friends, meant there was a large and diverse mix of guests assembled there that evening.

"God, why did they even bother turning up?"

Kelly gestured towards Martin, Carl and Philip, three members of the coding club who had decided to brave a party where they must have known they would noticeably stand out from most of the other guests. They were keeping each other company in a corner of the garden, while being ignored by nearly everyone else.

"Tammy likes them" Haley shrugged "And at least they aren't going to be annoying and trash the place like some of the people you invited"

"You forget, my dear cousin, that while some of my friends may be annoying to you, they also brought most of the booze" Kelly reminded her.

"Yeah, well my people brought all of the weed" Haley retorted.

Meanwhile Emily and Jessie were sticking to Craig like glue, in an attempt to ensure he didn't drink more than he could handle and start saying things he shouldn't. Their thinking was that, with the two of them keeping Craig out of trouble, the trio with birthdays to celebrate could enjoy themselves and not have to worry about the curse, at least for one evening. A stone cold sober and anxious by nature Tammy was failing in that regard though, and was also keeping in near constant earshot of Craig to quietly monitor his behaviour.

After a couple of hours, the party was in full swing. Kelly, who knew where the spare keys to the house were hidden, had snuck inside with a guy named Adam and was fucking him on her Aunt Holly's bed. Haley was getting high with some of her cool crowd buddies in a secluded area of the garden she had led them to.

Meanwhile, Emily and Jessie were hanging out near the pool with Craig and what appeared to be his new best friends, Brock, Blake and their other buddy Bryce. These people had barely spoken to Craig in the past, but since he had snagged himself a hot and seemingly devoted girlfriend, his social standing with them had risen greatly. Unfortunately, that and the **** Jessie and Emily had largely failed to prevent him from consuming, had started to go to his head.

"Hey Jessie, go and get me another beer will you, then come sit on my lap!"

"You really shouldn't order her about like that" Emily complained to him, with Maisie hoping that was an accidental command and not the start of something dangerous.

"Ah, she loves it, look at her!" Craig boasted.

Sure enough, Jessie was already doing as she was told and quickly returned with an open bottle of lager from the cooler, which she passed to her fiance before placing herself onto his lap.

"Dude, I am in awe of you!" Brock praised his new hero "How are you even doing this?"

"I have my ways" Craig smiled smugly.

"What else can you make her do?" Bryce laughed.

"Um, how about Jessie, until I say otherwise you will refer to me as Master. Got that?"

"Yes Master" Jessie answered.

"Dude!" Brock repeated in wide eyed amazement.

"I'm telling you, the girl is so crazy for me she'll do anything I tell her!"

"Craig, you're acting like a dick!" Emily tried to interject, but she was being ignored.

"Can you get her naked for us?" Blake asked hopefully.

"Yeah, make her strip naked and jump in the pool!" Bryce further encouraged him.

"Don't you fucking dare Craig!" Emily glared.

He looked back at the blonde girl and held eye contact for a few moments before breaking into a defiant grin and slurring his next command.

"Jessie, strip naked, jump in the pool and do twenty laps. You will then remain naked until I say otherwise!"

"Yes Master"

There were gasps of genuine astonishment followed by whoops of delighted approval as Jessie removed all of her clothes at fast speed, ran naked to the pool, jumped in and started doing breast stroke. She was the centre of attention now, obviously. And while some would have assumed her streaking and pool dive were down to too much **** or wanting to be a party animal, there were others who knew her better and couldn't believe Jessie would ever do something like that.

"Man, it's like you put some fucking voodoo shit on her or something" Bryce laughed.

"It's funny you should say that" Craig swigged some more beer "How would you three fine gentlemen like one of the birthday girls each to do the same thing with?"

"Craig, no!" Emily yelled desperately.

"I'd fucking love it" Brock smiled at the thought "The things I wouldn't **** that stuck up, superior bitch Haley to do for me"

"I'd turn Kelly into even more of a slut" Blake smirked.

"I'd go for Tammy and have all kinds of fun breaking that prissy little virgin in" Bryce added, probably unaware the girl in question was within earshot.

"So here is the secret..."

"Craig, you had better stop this right now or else!"

"Oh, shut the fuck up you Limey bitch, what are you gonna do?" Craig slurred, now obviously out of control "So here is the secret. And they tried to fucking trick me into thinking she was the only one, her and her lying cunt of a mother. But it's not just Jess, it's all of them!"

"What's all of them?" Brock asked, intrigued.

"Craig, this is your final warning" Emily spoke coldly as she stood up from her chair and moved towards him.

But Tammy had already heard enough. She sprinted over to where Martin, Carl and Philip were still sat together, and still being ignored by the rest of the partygoers, as fast as she had ever moved in her life. They all looked up in surprise at the obvious urgency with which she seemed to want their full attention.

"My cousin Haley, my cousin Kelly and myself are all cursed. Since you are the first three people to find out about it you each now get to control one of us. You can choose among yourselves I guess. All you have to do is say our names and anything you want us to do and we will have to obey you completely. We have now been claimed by you"

Tammy was barely able to talk any further than that since she was so out of breath, and she could now feel just how hard her heart was thumping against her chest. The three young men she had just yelled at were looking at her like she was crazy, but that hardly mattered. She knew for sure that she, as well as two of her cousins, had now been claimed. She could only hope and pray that it was the nerds and not the jocks who had been told first.
