The sissy games

Part 61; The birthday games 2/2

Alex turned around, his heart pounding in anticipation. Standing before him was Ember, her sparkling eyes shimmering with joy and relief. Her long red hair fell over her shoulders, and a single tear slid down her cheek as she smiled. Without thinking, Alex used the last bit of energy he had to sprint toward her. He wrapped her in a tight hug, lifting her slightly off the ground.

"Ember, I missed you so much," he said, his voice trembling with emotion.

"I missed you too," she whispered, clinging to him as if afraid he might disappear. They held each other in silence for a moment, enjoying each others warmth.

Eventually, they pulled apart, "So, tell me coudl you survive that b*tch these days?" She said. And Alex began recounting everything that had happened. He told her about Lucy, and how he foud out she is the daughter of the Lady, and how exhausting his time had been because of her.

"I knew betting against the Lady was a mistake," Ember said, her tone sharp with anger. "She always cheats!"

"I know," Alex admitted, sighing. "But there's no one to hold her accountable. Because she offered me the chance to switch roommates, but she seemed okay and I declined."

"You're right," Ember said, shaking her head. "She's sneaky like that. But hey, you're in second place now! That's something to celebrate!"

Alex managed a weak smile. "Enough about me. How have you been? Anything exciting happen while we were apart?"

Ember shrugged. "Not really. We've had some workshops on makeup and spent hours at the beauty salon. They wanted us to look perfect for the Lady's birthday and insisted we learn about makeovers. It was so tedious—I just wanted to leave and see you."

"I wish you could've," Alex said, his smile softening.

"Well, now I'm here," she said, her voice warm. "How about we get you cleaned up? You look like you could use a bath."

Ember led him to a pink, shimmering bath that had already been prepared. Alex hesitated, looking at the pink sparkling water. "So, are you going to be my mentor again after this? And can I go back to my own room?"

Ember smiled as she helped him into the tub. "I don't know. Everyone's been sent back to their original boys for today, I hope to stick around as long as I can."

She gently washed his hair, her fingers working the shampoo and conditioner through the strands. For a brief moment, they enjoyed each other's company in the stillness. Afterward, Alex dried off and was surprised to find boxer shorts waiting for him instead of the usual feminine clothing.

"Man underwear on the Lady's birthday? This is amazing," he said, genuinely shocked.

"Looking good," Ember teased, leaning in for a kiss.

Before their lips could touch, an alarm blared through the room, signaling the start of the next game.

Alex joined the other boys on the stage, his eyes widening at the sight before him—a life-sized board game stretched across the floor. The tiles formed a winding path leading to a treasure at the end.

The announcer's voice boomed, "Ladies and gentlemen, today's game is literally a game! Our contestants are about to embark on a thrilling journey across the Board of Girls. But beware, the path is fraught with challenges, and by the end, some of these boys might look more like girls than when they started!"

The crowd cheered as the announcer explained the rules. Each boy would roll a die to determine the order of play. Afterward, they'd roll again to move across the board, landing on tiles with various effects:
