It wasn’t a clean cut.

It looked like someone had repeatedly slashed him with a dull blade before finally severing the bone.

For the last two days, he had hidden it behind a tie.

I loosened the knot and pressed my lips against the mangled flesh.

“Don’t,” he flinched, trying to push me away.

“It is ugly.”

He seemed terrified that his monstrous nature would hurt me.

I was just plotting my next move when a small, jealous face popped out from under the covers.

“Mommy, you do not love Meg anymore,” she whined. “I’m the best! What’s so great about Daddy?”

“I will sleep with both of you, okay?”

The first three days passed without further incident.

According to the system voice, only 12 players remained alive.

On the third night, Scarlett sent me a private message.

[That is how we get the final clue. You are on the hardest floor, so we need you to help facilitate those visits.]
