"So, your plan is to make father angry till he scolds all of us. Wow! I would say that I was sleeping in my room and have no idea what he is talking about!" Eve glared at Eli.
Her stern but sweet sister turns into a sarcastic and cold woman whenever she drinks! It was tough to handle her retorts when she was drunk.
"Like you can ever lie to our father!" Eve rolled her eyes and then added, "even if you try, you are so bad at lying that you will be caught in a second. Do you not remember the last time when you lied that your lips were bitten by a mosquito.
Even the maids chuckled so hard! Not to forget the embarrassed face of my father!" she shook her head as she remembered how foolish her sister was that she was not even able to hide her first kiss.
"When did that happen?" asked Leo with a dark face. He didn't even need the detail to know what they were talking about? His voice instantly turned cold.
But her meek sisters have already turned bold after the drinks.
Eve snorted while Eli raised her head and looked at her, "why? Did I ask what your and Evangeline's first kiss was like?"
"Cough cough cough cough!!!" Evan's eyes widened as the forceful eaten piece of crab gout struck in her throat.
When the gods were fighting, why was a mere mortal like her dragged in it. All this time she was trying her best to keep her presence minimal since she saw that all were having a strange conversation. Then how did they suddenly remember her?!!!
"We did not have our kiss yet!" she retorted as she raised her head and looked at them with a flushed face! Why did she even need to say that? It should be Leo who should be explaining it to her family.
With that thought she glared at the man who was still silent.
"Yes! We have not kissed each other properly!" he mumbled when he felt her narrow gaze that was trying to bore holes on his face.
"..." 'alright! She gave up! Why did she even think that he would take her side!'
"Oh! Shall I arrange a lesson for you then. So can you do it properly?" asked Eli as she rolled her eyes. What did he even mean that he had not done it properly!
"Pfft…!! Hahaha..! I am glad that I accepted Eli's offer when she asked me to have a drink with her or else I would have missed this scene!" she even banged the table with her hands while saying so, that Evan did not know how to react!
Why did she feel suddenly that all three of them were not the siblings she knew! Had they been changed last night when she was not aware?!
She wanted to run away, but she was afraid that if she stood up then all the eyes would move in her direction and she couldn't take the risk when they were being too brutal to each other.
"Tsk! I still have not asked you where you were all day? I have searched the whole palace for you! Where have you gone?" Eli took another sip of her glass as her eyes moved to her sister this time, who did not even flinch when the cold eyes fell on her.
"I was in the garden. The sun was so warm and bright. That I fell asleep there. You should have sent the maids to call me.
Anyway, I was saying, let's play that command game we saw in the royal palace last time.
It was too bewitching and I always wanted to try it, but I never had the right company!!" she muttered as she looked at them with excited eyes.
Her whole body was sparking with the thought and she even showed them the empty bottle!
"Commanding game? The one that is played with the slaves?" asked Leo with a raised brow! Though his face was still calm, his voice had turned a bit cold when he heard about the game.
"Eve! Are you forgetting that our family is against the slavery? We never had one and we do not attach ourselves with anything related to them!" even the sarcastic mood of Eli turned into serious mode again when she looked at her sister with a frown on her face.
"Yes! Yes! I know. Why are you both being so sensitive? Can you see any slave here?
I was thinking of playing a game between us!" she added as she rolled the bottle on the table but her words only met with the silence of her family that looked at her as if she had gone insane!
"Do not judge before listening. As far as I remember your majesty was asking the slaves a few truths. But when they failed to reply honestly, they all were commanded a punishment.
Since all of us think that we are lying about one thing or another from each other.
Let's ask each other a question. And if the person did not tell the truth, he would be commanded a punishment in the favor of the other three!
Trust me! It will be fun! i will give the bunch of best punishments you could ask for like how about i punish Evangeline to kiss you properly this time?
What do you say Leo, would you like that kind of punishment?"
"...."
*The game has existed for hundreds of years, with at least one variant, "questions and commands", being attested as early as 1712:
A Christmas game, in which the commander bids their subjects to answer a question which is asked. If the subject refuses or fails to satisfy the commander, they must pay a forfeit [follow a command] or have their face smutted [dirtied].[2]
Truth or dare[1] may ultimately derive from command games such as the ancient Greek basilinda (in Greek: Βασιλινδα).. This game is described by Julius Pollux: "in which we are told a king, elected by lot, commanded his comrades what they should perform".[
