He explained sexual wedding stuff to his fiancé.

I woke up an hour before my alarm went off, but it was that hazy kind of awake where you're still almost lucid dreaming. I pictured Elise above me, riding my cock as I squeezed her big tits. Then, with no real transition, it was Simone riding my cock. Then back and forth a bit, then cycling through all the other hot Asian women that Simon Ito had married over the years and all the ones he'd probably marry temporarily in the future.

I did eventually snap out of this haze. It's a great way to wake up, but I needed to get going. As I started to really wake up I realized that the only BS I'd gotten last night had been from fucking Elise. Hadn't the girls done anything with a male stripper? Either they'd been on better behavior than I expected or everything they did was stuff they would have done even without the app's influence.

I decided to check the Sophistry Generator app, since I hadn't done more than glance at the important bits lately. I'd been ignoring all the updates on my XP, so I checked that and found I was only 12 points away from the next level. Opal's body modifications were at 35%, which felt painfully slow.

Other than that, I didn't see any other interesting changes until I got to the group profiles tab. Enough of the wedding party had finally arrived at the resort to meet the minimum requirements for showing a belief. In fact, all of Nicole's beliefs had spread to 10% of the wedding party, which probably meant everyone who had arrived on the island so far.

This was good, but I was a little surprised about the beliefs that a woman should obey her husband. I hadn't really thought about those spreading to the whole wedding party. On the one hand, great, the gold diggers who married these rich guys probably deserved to be put in line. On the other hand, did I really think those rich assholes deserved to have their lives be even easier? It was a wash, really.

Excellent. Someone was having some early morning fun. I hopped into the shower.

+12 BS. 96 Remaining.

Again? That was quick. I put on a polo shirt and some shorts and headed to the restaurant for breakfast.

I found everyone at the table except for Ainsley and Simon and Elise Ito, so some combination of them must have generated the BS. I sat down next to Nicole and gave her a little kiss.

"Mmm! Good morning!" said Nicole.

"Good morning! Anything interesting happen last night?"

She giggled. "You know I can't tell! The bachelorette party is a sacred trust! I can't-" Her phone chimed, and she pulled it out without even excusing herself. She read a message and her eyes went wide.

"What is it?" I asked.

"Um... Ainsley is going to be a little late. Mr. and Mrs. Ito, too."

She sounded embarrassed. With a casual tone I asked, "Oh? Why is that?"

"She's... she's just doing her bride's maid duties. It's... um... well, just read it yourself." She showed me the text message from Ainsley.

"Morning, Nicki!!! ☺☺☺ Running late, stopped by Simone's parents to see if I could do anything for them. Mr. Ito asked me to eat his ass in front of his wife, then he asked me to lick her pussy in front of him. Got real sweaty, so we're all going to take shower together now. Be down soon! Love you!!!! ♥♥♥♥♥♥!!!"

Nicole blushed as I read it. She may be onboard with her bride's maids doing their wedding duties to help the guests, but the details still embarrassed her sheltered sensibilities. I patted her leg and said, "That's kind of hot."

"Really?" she said, clearly getting excited. She might be embarrassed, but she gets turned on when I get turned on.

"There's going to be a lot more of that once all the guests start arriving for the wedding."

"I know, right?!" said Nicole. "Isn't it funny how people get together so much at weddings?"

"Not just get together," I replied. "At a wedding like this, on a beautiful tropical island, people are going to lose all inhibitions."

"Really? You think so?"

"Absolutely. People are going to be so horny they'll lose any self control. Some people will sneak away during the ceremony for debauchery. After the ceremony is when people will really go nuts. It will be a full blown orgy."

Nicole hid behind her hands in embarrassment, then poked out her smiling face and said, "Why would they act like that?"

"Think about it, babe. Think about how beautiful you are and how handsome I am. Just the thought of us up on that altar in this paradise will send people into a flurry of romance and lust. It will be amazing."

She looked like she loved the idea.

The waitress came by and I ordered breakfast. We all chatted, although Mr. Astor avoided talking to me and Simone looked like she didn't want to talk to anyone.

+20 BS. 86 remaining.

What was Ainsley doing with the Itos in that shower?! It couldn't be something her boyfriend would approve of with a BS payout that high. I needed to spend some serious points soon or I'd hit my max.

Breakfast came and Nicole looked distressed when she saw what the waitress put in front of her father. "Dad! Steak for breakfast?!"

"What?" asked the big man. "Steak is good any time of the day." Then he picked up his plate and set it in front of his wife. "Cut this up for me."

"Yes, dear," she said in a dull tone, then she started cutting the steak.

That was new. Mrs. Astor hadn't really seemed like the type to take orders before now. Really, it seemed like the Astors tolerated and ignored each other even when they were together. This must have been the effect of the belief that women take orders from their husbands. So why did she seem so unhappy about it?

Then I remembered. There were two separate beliefs. Women might think it was natural to take orders from their husbands, but they didn't enjoy it unless they loved them. This was an oversite that I needed to fix in Nicole.

I took Nicole's hand and leaned in so I could speak quietly. "You know, in just two days we're going to seal our love forever!"

She smiled ear-to-ear and squeezed my hand. "I know!"

"No, you don't understand. I mean biologically. When women are married, their brains change so that they love their husbands as intensely as possible, and that feeling never fades."

Nicole's smile faltered. She looked at her parents as they blankly stared at their food, avoiding eye contact. Then Nicole turned back to me. "Um... really?"

"Yes, really. Some couples might have hidden this because they don't want people to know how intense the feeling is, but it's true. Think about your feelings right now. You love me, right?"

She brightened up again. "More than anything!"

"Could that feeling ever fade?"

"No! I love you so much, Will!"

"There's your proof! Being married makes women love their husbands as much as possible, and that love never fades!"

Kennedy, sitting next to Nicole, snorted in laughter. That was okay, I didn't need to convince her.

-10 BS. 76 Remaining.

I quickly thought about what it would cost to convince Kennedy of the same thing. The price for that was insane. However, I didn't need to convince her. I just needed to convince Nicole. Until the wedding was over and the groups based on it disbanded, all of Nicole's beliefs would spread to the others.

Nicole squealed a little. "I can't wait to be your wife!"

I smiled back and gently stroked her perfect chin. "I can't wait either!"

What the hell, Ainsley?! Slow down! What were you even doing?!
