LOGLINE

A dark game forces Zee, a reckless young woman into contacting the guy who took her virginity and begging him to marry her, but she neither expected his acceptance which keeps her in the game, nor his Mafia life as well as the tough love she is forced to receive at his hands.

SYNOPSIS

Zee, a spirited girl from a liberal home has cheated on the dark and reckless game known as “The Last Dare.”

She must perform her dare by contacting Michael Ray, the guy she lost her virginity to, and beg him to marry her. She and Michael Ray had grown apart, hence she barely knows him. 

She manages to perform her dare but the game still haunts her due to her cheating. She is thus given a new dare which is to disrupt his wedding ceremony, a daunting dare she fears performing. Although she is terrified, the consequences of the game force her to do the inevitable. 

In revenge, Michael decides to force her hand in marriage for the purpose of taming what he considers to be her wild behavior. As a result, Zee finds herself between the devil and the deep blue sea. 

If she refuses his proposal, the dire consequences of the game await her. But she cannot really reject his proposal as he threatens to forcefully marry her in the mafia way after the deadline of his ultimatum to willingly accept his proposal.

Trapped, Zee accepts his proposal, as she wonders what turn her life would take as his wife and if the game would finally free her.

EXCERPT

​

“Marry me.” He said, the words, a pronouncement rather than the standard heartfelt request.

She gasped, her eyes wide with shock. “What?” her heart was pounding incessantly.

“Be my wife.” He stated clearly.

“No…I mean, I…”

“It is the only condition for my forgiveness.”

“But why?”

“You trusted me to make you a woman, didn’t you, Zee?”

“Yes but…”

“I did it because my feelings for you have always been unmasked.”

“But you are not serious now, are you?”

“I’ve never been this serious.”

“But I… I just broke up your wedding.” Zee was confused.

“We are not going to discuss that.” He said dismissively and she shook her head adamantly.

“No.”

“No to what exactly? You will do anything, right?”

“Yes but…”

Zee caught her breath as she saw bloody writing on the tinted window of a black car parked adjacent to her. Marry Michael Ray it read.

“No, please.” She said more to the last dare than to him. The writing disappeared.

“You have until the end of today to give me a positive response or I will get you to marry me in the mafia way and trust me, your parents will not be able to stop it.”

She gasped and her eyes were like saucers. “Mafia?”

“I told you that you never really knew me. I was on my own when you came looking for trouble. Tonight, Elizabeth.”

Zee knew she was trapped between the devil and the deep blue sea. She was trapped between the game and him. Both were dangerous. Any moment from now, she might be looking older than her age again as a warning from the game. There was no need to waste time.

“No need for that.” She quickly said to him. “I will marry you.” Then she started sobbing anew as he drew forward and enveloped her in a hug. He could feel her body trembling against his, but he remained stoic and could not feel sorry for her.

He couldn’t let himself feel any pity for her. Enough was enough as far as he was concerned. He had had enough of her shenanigans. Zee needed some good drilling.

“Good answer.” He praised. “When you get home, tell your parents that you’ve found a man who understands you.”
