Location: Vale Estate – Grand Lounge Hall, Evening
Rain fell softly outside, tapping the glass walls of the estate like a rhythm only peace could afford.
Inside?
Chaos was brewing.
The long, high-ceilinged lounge had been completely transformed: LED lighting, music humming low, floating snack trays circling the room. Cushy game couches. A massive projector. Tables stacked with cards, controllers, dice, and drinks.
It was game night.
And every named character was present.
Scene: The Whole Crew Assembles
Caelan, Liora, and Azra entered first—each ready for war and snacks.
Zaria Lin, Jace Morales, Noah Cross, and Isla brought energy drinks, beanbags, and nerf guns "just in case."
Selene, calm as ever, already claimed the poker table and started shuffling.
The new vampire and werewolf friends? Already arguing over Uno rules.
Zeke and Rico? Dressed like fake referees with whistles and "Team Phantom" jerseys.
And then came Damon and his wives, fashionably late, casual and stunning.
Damon (smirking): "We come in peace. For now."
Scene: Let the Games Begin
Round 1: Uno
Winner: Nova

Arielle (laughing): "And this is therapy."
Rico: "You just got divorced in front of us all."
Round 2: Dance Battle (VR)
Winner: Liora
Biggest Casualty: Zeke, who tried to backflip and got stuck in the wall projection.
Round 3: Werewolf (the game, not the species)
Winner: Azra
Biggest Argument: The actual werewolf characters accusing everyone of stereotyping.
Scene: Snack Shenanigans
Elina caught Rico hiding extra churros.
Caelan tried to sabotage Jace's soda.
Zaria replaced all the candy with spicy versions.
Damon (raising a chip): "We are the most powerful dynasty in the world."
Caelan: "And still acting like middle schoolers."
Zeke (chewing): "That's the point."
Scene: Truth or Dare (Because It Had to Happen)
Selene: "Damon. Truth or dare."
Damon: "Truth."
Selene: "Did you ever lose a fight and not tell us?"
Damon (grinning): "I don't lose. I evolve."
Later—
Arielle (to Rico): "Dare?"
Rico: "Hit me."
Arielle: "Kiss Zeke's forehead."
Rico: "On it."
Zeke (groaning): "I hate this family."
Final Scene: Group Picture
Before bed, the AI drone hovered in front of them.
Everyone squeezed in—silly poses, arms around each other, chaos and beauty immortalized.
Click.
