Zoe had always had a weakness when it came to online gambling. Although she was respected and well paid at her job as the manager of a large store, as soon as she got home she went straight for her laptop and gambled away her paycheck into the wee hours of the night. She couldn't help herself, the thrill of the experience pulled her back every night. Just putting in the money to buy the poker chips was exciting for her. And of course occasionally she won, and she enjoyed that too.
But what really got her going was the promise of winning. The potential to win. The feeling drew her back to the addiction day after day and night after night. Although she had yet to let it interfere with her work, it was something she did compulsively when she got home. On a particular night, she walked through the front door of the house she shared with her best friend from college and sat down on the coach in the front room.
"Long day?" Emily asked, sitting down next to her on the coach.
"You don't know the half of it" replied Zoe before sinking into the couch. Emily looked at her slightly worried.
"Was it that guy again?"
"Yeah" she said a little energetically, "Matt comes on very strong, sometimes a little creepily."
"Are you into him?"
"I don't know. He's fairly attractive and nice and all and he's fun to talk to sometimes..."
"Just too direct and forward?"
"Exactly. Matt needs to slow down. Some of the things he says can be downright creepy."
"Like what?" Emily asked, curious.
"Well the other day he said 'You have a really stellar butt' and I just didn't know how to respond" Zoe said, throwing her hands up. Emily stopped to think about this and she couldn't help agree with Matt. Zoe had a spectacular ass. It was so plump but firm, Emily had always had a burning desire to squeeze it. Just to feel how soft and squishy it was. And whenever Zoe went on the occasional jog, Emily hadn't thought about Zoe in a sexual way before, but seeing her ass jiggle up and down like that, god it would turn anyone on.
"Earth to Emily, come in Emily" Zoe teased, flailing her hand in front of Emily's face.
"Sorry" she said apologetically, "I spaced out."
"Typical Emily" Zoe said, slumping back into the couch. Emily sighed sarcastically and stood up. She walked to her room still thinking about the glorious way it shook. But Zoe was glad she had left. When the door closed she reached under the coach and grabbed her laptop. She lay down on the couch and relaxed, letting out a sigh of relief, unbuttoning the top button of her uniform.
She had always been above average in that department. Reaching D cups by the beginning of highschool. And now laying on the couch, her E cup bra wrapped around her chest, just a bit of her cleavage showing through her top. The laptop rested on her lap and she went directly to her favorite gambling website.
For hours she gambled, until she glanced at the clock. She swore under her breath when she saw the time, almost 2 in the morning. What was more worrying to her was that she had only 5 dollars in her account left and it was on the line. And it happened, she had lost. She sighed quietly to herself.
Zoe reached to the top of her screen to close it, but a notification popped up before she could. It said 'out of money, no problem!'. She was so desperate to continue playing, she took another gamble and clicked the button to 'find out more'. It took her to the private messages section of the gambling site. Odd, she thought to herself. And then she got a message.
"So, you ran out of money?" The anonymous texter said. Zoe was a little offended, she was, but to be so upfront about it by asking?
A simple "yes" is all that she replied with.
"Do you want to keep playing?" And she begrudgingly replied "yes" and then "how?"
"It's simple really" the message said, "did you ever play truth or dare as a kid? Well its like that, when you lose you will either chose truth or dare. But rather than answering questions for truth, it'll become your truth" Zoe was confused by the last part. And as if the texter had seen this, they said "like if they said act like a chicken for a turn, you'd have to do that" Zoe thought to herself that seemed a kind of humiliating thing to do but she wanted to play. And soon she'd win her money back and wouldn't have to do this.
"Ok" she responded, "But what happens if I don't do what it says?" Zoe asked.
