“Wanna play a game?” Quinn asked, a mischievous glint in her eyes.“Sure,” I said, “but what happens if someone bails on a truth or dare?”She just smiled. “We get a new one, and you have to do it. No matter what.”“Deal,” I said.“Truth or dare?” she asked.“Truth.”“What's your biggest secret?” Her eyes were full of playful curiosity.“I can't tell you,” I said, “so I guess I have to do a dare.”“Good,” she said, her grin widening. “I dare you to take off your shirt.”That's how it all started. I'm still not sure why, but Quinn seemed determined to have me. She got her wish, and she even got pregnant. But what came after that... well, nobody saw that coming.#R18, #ECCHI, #ROMANCE[WARNING]****** /THIS NOVEL CONTAINS EXPLICT SEXUAL CONTENT, CURSE LANGUAGE **** * ** ******* * **** AUDIENCE DISCRETION IS ADVISED
