_Gulp_. There was no going back now.

Olivia look down at her feet. She was at least twenty feet off the ground standing at the edge of a run down tree house.

A few days ago she and Della made a bet on who would win the Football game— Olivia lost. But because she didn’t have any money, Della said that she would then have to do and dare that Della told her to do. The new bet was five small dares ...

A dare.

A bet.

A spin on all his luck.

With his life as the stake

And a gun to be struck.

His buddy’s begged him not to

And the old man chuckled and grinned.

“Are you scared your going to die

Are you a coward deep within?”

“Like your father was that day

When we played this very game

And your mother was the stake

Will you beg like he once did?”

With a last plea from his friends

He took a step to...

I’ll take those odds.

But they are 1 million to 1!

But I’ll will a million.

Just betting 1!...

I sat at the end of the table, my brother, the idiot he is, sitting in his seat cards in his hands. He’d agreed to yet another game of cards, wanting to win his losses back, he’d stupidly bet our entire weeks pay, our, mine included. It was funny when he was a child, my father and mother would laugh at his ridiculous exclamations, ridiculous odds, now it was more saddening, it was sad because I am...

I have fifteen tattoos, have jumped out of three planes, climbed the tallest mountains in every continent, and have been married seven times. There is only one that I regret, the one that started this whole adventure.

I warn you, it’s awful, one I regret, and I’m only telling the story because of a dare.

See, I dated a woman because of a bet, and her brother cursed me. Now I have to take every...

“Oh c’mon, I so definitely can pick the winning team for the next match!!”

“Really Jono? Would you care to make it interesting?”

Jonahon grinned.

“I thought you’d never ask.”

Jonathon could never say no to a bet.

Even now, after skipping breakfast and lunch, Jonathan was busy making a quick mental note of how many cans of tuna he had left in the cupboard. If he cut down to one meal a day, wou...

Damn it. I was in the same situation once again.y life has never been peaceful or predictable. Mostly because of my impulsive way of thinking.

I can’t say no. But this time I’ve lost pretty much everything. Just because of a silly bet. Very typical for me.

And there we were. Standing on this cliff. My ship was gone, all my tokens were gone. I was tied to a pole hanging above a crater.

Why do...

“We’re gonna die, We’re gonna die, We’re gonna—“

“Oh my God, Daniel, would you just shut up already?! I have everything perfectly under con—“

A fierce gust of wind blew Anne off her feet.

“AHH!”

The boat tipped dangerously to the left. Daniel wrapped his arms more tightly around Anne, burying his face in her raincoat. Lightning streaked across the sky as another wave crashed onto the deck, t...

The clashing crescendo

Always gets me

3 strangers

Being pursued by wolves in the shadows

I understand, the wolves are

Drinking Smoking Materialistic desires

Swallowed whole by those foolish enough

To run away When they summoned them in the first place.

“Your flesh is crying out for more.”

More of what? what does your flesh crave?

Do you want sex? Isolatio...

“I bet you that the lion will get him.” The spectator said.

“Really? How much?” The cloaked spectator replied.

“This pouch of coins.” The first spectator retrieves the pouch from his pocket and jingles it as if to demonstrate the worth.

The cloaked spectator reached in his pocket, he finds a coin that he turns in his pocket and retrieves his own pouch.

“You’re on. But how about we make it more...
