Turnons A Game Of Dares Ch 17 1

Author’s note

Dear readers, I’m sorry for the long wait, but life has its way of interfering with a hobby like this, that requires time and dedication. I really appreciated all the feedback and emails you sent, even in the last few weeks, eager, as am I, to read more about Alex’s adventures.

I’m trying to find some more time to write. These last few days I’ve been lucky, I wrote this chapter and outlined another couple. I hope I’ll have the time to keep up.

In the meantime, to those of you who asked how I would feel about someone writing other stories in the Turnons universe, I can only say that I’m a reader first, and an amateur writer second, so I’d be delighted to read them. If those of you who’d like to contribute in this way are reading this, maybe drop me a line with your ideas: of course there’s nothing stopping you from writing your own stuff with or without my supervision, but I’d like to give my perspective, if you like.

Characters

Alex Marshall:

Alex is a PhD student at UCL who’s been just given her first chance at teaching thanks to a seminar named "The erotic impulse as a means of liberation in Nietszche, Freud and Marcuse". You’ve been reading a lot about her thoughts, fantasies, fears, so I just want to point out something you might have missed in the meantime.

Alex always had fantasies about reluctant exhibitionism, she found Turnons almost by chance and got quickly hooked up. Most of the erotic pics and videos she posted over time on Turnons are visible only on the app, and only by users following her, apart from one pic posted as public and also outside of Turnons.

To keep her account on Turnons active Alex has to comply with the required number of daily dares. Should her account get deactivated she would lose ownership and control over everything she ever posted on the app: all her content would become property of the company running Turnons, and could be used on the app, on Turnons website or anywhere else to promote it, as well as being shared by users outside of Turnons.

While she struggles with her own erotic urges, Alex has to deal with the constant fear of exposure and the risk of throwing away her academic career.

Laura Bennett:

Alex’s roommate and friend. She’s frisk and easygoing. Laura thinks these last few days of turmoil in Alex’s life are due to some new romantic interest, and she’s really positive and supportive about Alex’s new daring attitude.

Richard Croft:

Alex’s tutor and boss. He’s the one who vouched for her to get her the seminar and he’s in charge of Alex’s PhD thesis.

Annie Haller:

a senior lecturer from a different department. Alex admires her and it seems Annie’s got her back with Richard even if in a patronising way. She’s Richard’s (almost) unconfessed love interest.

Professor Graham Grant:

head of the department where Alex and Richard work and Susie’s uncle.

Susie Grant:

she’s one of the students attending Alex’s seminar and the niece of professor Grant. She asked Alex to review a paper she’s writing and she has met her on several other occasions.

Amy Clarke:

Susie’s friend. She’s met Alex one night when she reluctantly exposed herself in a revealing outfit, and then again while Alex was completing a dare at the H&M store where Amy works.

Oliver Brewster:

Alex’s ex-boyfriend.

SubtleG:

he’s the first user on Turnons Alex accepted a dare from and who’s been sending her a few more dares since.

DarkPassenger:

a premium user on Turnons who seems to have a specific interest in Alex and her “journey” as he defined it.

Other characters:

there’s a bunch of characters that appeared or have been mentioned in the story, mostly friends of Alex (Andy, Fran, Nick) or Susie (Charlie, Troy), or other users on Turnons.

Previously on Turnons

Alex had a really arousing but rough day so far. Following DarkPassenger’s dare she exposed herself like never before in an H&M store first, and during her training session at the park. She had to endure the humiliation of sneaking through the campus scantily dressed in her slutty workout outfit, but eventually somehow she managed to get through her seminar lecture.

Given everything going on with her life, Alex didn’t really need to make plans to see Susie the next day, but the girl seems to have a peculiar charm on her, one she’s not able to fight apparently.

Now, in the late afternoon Alex found some peace and time to try and find a solution to the Turnons conundrum, but she’s forgetting something, isn’t she?

*

Fucker. Bloody fuckin’ fuck. She had been so stupid, so fucking stupid.

Alex was trying to remember all the instructions of Dark Passenger’s dare but she couldn’t think straight. Not after she figured out the loophole he used to trap her.

Since that unusual Turnons notification catched her attention she had been unable to return to her study of Turnons terms and conditions.

*Your post is now featured in TTT, Today's trending turn-ons!*

She was sure it had something to do with all the notifications about “her post” getting comments and likes… Which one? What was that about? Jesus, this was not the time to make everything more complicated, chrissake!

And as she was scrolling that endless list on her lock-screen, at some point she noticed something different in the midst of that flood of messages.

*Turnons - You still need to complete 2 dares today. Good luck!*

Two. Two, you fucker. You fucked me, you fucked me real good.

Even if she wasn’t exactly in her right mind, she could remember the easiest of DarkPassenger’s task requirements: she had to stay off Turnons until midnight, or else she had to complete one of the back-up tasks.

Only now Alex understood she simply couldn’t win this time: the moment she failed to follow one of her active rules the app automatically increased the number of daily dares by one. And she knew it. She should have known that. It was on all her daily reports in clear letters.

What it meant now though was too overwhelming to handle. Her brain wasn’t helping her remembering the exact penalty she would have granted herself logging back in, but it was bad, she was sure of it. God why didn’t you take a screenshot of the instructions, you idiot? How could you believe you would’ve remembered it? ‘Cause you were juggling your professional life and this… this bullshit you’ve let yourself dive into! That’s why.

Alex almost smashed her phone on the desk when it buzzed for the hundredth time in the last 10 minutes. She let out a whimpered “fuck” and while a tear of frustration came down her face, she looked at the screen and clicked on the permanent notification to open the app and go back to her current dare.

New Dare from DarkPassenger

The task is simple really. It only requires some self control on your side.

To complete this task starting now until midnight you have to show me you have full control on yourself, on your sexual or erotic activity, physical or psychological. I know it’s something hard to prove but I’ll give you a few parameters to fulfil. Anytime you fail to fulfil one of those parameters there will be consequences. I will clearly state the consequences so that you’re fully aware of what your actions will lead you to. If I’m right about you… well let’s not spoil it, we’ll see if I’m right or wrong at the end of this task.

You will successfully complete this task in any case. All you have to do is fulfil 3 sets of parameters. If you fail to fulfil the first parameter of each set your goal will be to fulfil the second. You can’t choose the order, so the second option will only be available if you fail the first.

I think you will have a better understanding of who you are whether you manage to fulfil first options rather than seconds.

First set

1. The indicator on your arousal tracker must stay under 30% for the remainder of the day. If you fail to keep it that way you must keep it over 80% for the remainder of the day. Don’t worry, I’ll give you enough time to get there (ten minutes should suffice, right?) but once you’re up you cannot go down, understood?

2. Set the no orgasm rule as a permanent rule. Permanent rules can only be removed by rule givers. If you fail to fulfil a permanent rule your account gets deactivated, with all the consequences that come with it.

Second set

1. You decided to wear panties or something like that anyway. You must take them off the minute you accept the dare. I’m gonna set a flash proof on this one to be able to check your outfit at all times. Panties must stay off until the end of the dare.

2. Accept this rule: no panties allowed without permission. Anytime you want to wear panties you will politely ask me. Before doing so, in exchange for this chance you will increase the number of daily dares by one, whether permission is granted or not.

Third set

1. From the moment you accept this dare you won’t be opening Turnons until midnight. I’ll know that simply checking your last login time.

2. The minute you open Turnons next time, start a live streaming, set privacy as public. During the streaming you must ask users to send you dares that help you explore your submissive and exhibitionist side, do it in a sexy way, be convincing, play with your naked breasts as you do so. Tell them how you fantasise about being exposed, how bad you want new rules pushing you to wear slutty clothes, how you love being forced to complete dares all day long, how you would like to become just that a horny slut that spends the day following the whims of pervs going out of her way to show them she’s a good slutty girl. The streaming must last at least five minutes and you must talk all the time, just stay within the lines of the instructions.

Failing this dare comes with no penalties but it could be a problem for you to get through the day without your account being deactivated. So should you fail this dare I have already sent you another one, something very easy you can complete in a couple of minutes. Call it an emergency exit not to get your account deactivated.

Mind though: the dare will consist in choosing one of two options, that’s it. Since I want to make sure you’re completely in charge of your destiny and your decisions I’ll let you know exactly the options you’ll be given:

Option 1: from now on, unless explicitly stated in a given requirement, all the media content you post on Turnons must include your face;

Option 2: every time you fail a dare, in addition to completing the assigned penalty you must change the privacy settings of your last 2 updates on Turnons to public.

Time left to complete the dare: 10 hours

She had no choice. Or did sh? She could just quit. She could just give up. Giving up Turnons meant giving up her rights over any content she uploaded on the app. It meant her content potentially being used on Turnons public website, being shared around. It meant completely losing control over it and setting up a time bomb: sooner or later someone would have found that smut right? Anybody could pass it around.

But what was the difference really? Right now her porn - for the hundredth time Alex, it’s porn just admit it to yourself! - her fucking porn was online, and there was no taking it down. The only consolation was that only a few dozen people - were 150 users really a few? - could actually see it. But if she gave that tiny piece of privacy up…

What would happen complying with DarkPassenger’s instructions though? There would have been a public five minutes video of her spitting out all her slutty thoughts for anyone on Turnons to see and hear. And then, as per his second dare that she needed to complete as well to get through the day, she couldn’t basically fail a dare anymore, or else she would’ve seen all her posts becoming public in time. That was the best case scenario, given that she would’ve never taken up the risk of showing her face on Turnons.

It was high stakes gambling, and frankly it looked like a lose-lose situation. If she was honest to herself she had to admit she had lost control already. None of the paths in front of her could assure nothing but probably exposure. Think, Alex, think! Where’s your wit when you really need it?

Unless…

Yes! Yes, everything was still in her hands. She had a way out to get through the day. She just had to be quick to avoid any interference from DarkPassenger.

Alex just opened Turnons and waited eagerly for a notification. It only took a few minutes and it arrived as expected.

*Ouch! You failed to complete DarkPassenger’s dare. Click to discover the penalties DarkPassenger’s set up for failing this dare.*

You’re cocky DarkPassenger, I give it you meant what you wrote in the instructions.

*No penalties for failing this dare, lucky you!*

Yes! And now.

New Dare from DarkPassenger

Hello Alex,

by now you either completed my previous dare or you realised you could just skip it.

If you did get through with it you’ve just proven to yourself how much this “game” got into your head and messed up your judgement, and unfortunately you must have realised how little control you have over it.

On the other hand, if you skipped through it, you must now feel back in control, at least a little bit. You see, Alex, that’s where your character really intrigues me. Even through the cold interface of this app when we chat, and even more so through your reluctant performances, I can see how your very core essence is being torn apart, pulled and twisted by your own fears and desires. That’s the battle you’re losing, Alex, that’s where your mind is tricking you.

Your darkest fantasies are winning you over. What’s this illusion of regaining control except for a mere excuse to go on, go deeper, push yourself further?

And here you’re Alex. Here you have a choice between 2 rules. Pick an option. You know which one. The one that will allow you to keep a resemblance of decency while pushing yourself further down the spiral. Pick one. I promise you don’t want to pick one of the penalties.

- Rule 1: from now on, unless explicitly stated in a given requirement, all the media content you post on Turnons must include your face;

- Rule 2: every time you fail a dare, in addition to completing the assigned penalty you must change the privacy settings of your last 2 updates on Turnons to public.

Time left to complete the dare: 2 minutes

Alex felt exposed like she never felt before. Not at the bar, not in the park, not a few hours ago scantily dressed around the campus or in front of Annie. Her fingers were trembling as she tapped on the accept dare button. She was then presented with the choice: option 1 or option 2. Option, that was a funny word.

Her mind was numb, almost oblivious of the time running down. Two minutes is not a lot but it’s enough to understand when someone sees right through you. Sure, that’s not enough to rationalise it, dwell on it, question yourself on whether or not he’s right, on whether or not you’re the one controlling your course of action. Are you really guided by your rational mind, Alex, or is it something deeper, visceral and indomitable?

No, two minutes is not enough to think about that. It’s not enough to achieve that kind of understanding, and naturally not enough for bargaining, acceptance, rage or any other stage but resignation, submission.

Submission to who? Submission to what?

*

In the Uber she didn’t talk. She wasn’t the kind of person to entertain a conversation with the driver anyway, let alone in that kind of situation, with her mind and her body exhausted by her rollercoaster day.

A number of things happened in such a short time, and she was now convinced this could only be the beginning of something bigger, something she didn’t yet know how to stop.

The car stopped. Alex mumbled a thank you and got out. She still had her dress on. Even if the staples did a good job at replacing the missing buttons and keeping together the two sides of the skirt, she was still worried they could give out anytime, so she moved slowly and carefully across the street and inside the store.

After all that dress skirt, barely held together as it was, was the only everything that concealed her sopping wet pussy.

*

When she was still in her office numbly looking at her phone screen she couldn’t really think straight. She had just picked option 2 from DarkPassenger’s dare. It was clearly the only way out. Alex though knew she had to be very careful now, any little slip could be catastrophic. And Turnons didn’t miss a chance to remind her.
