The hall was resplendent with gilded ceilings and crystal chandeliers,
A planist played a soft, elegant tune, while women in dazzling dresses moved gracefully through the crowd, balancing cocktails with practiced
They weren’t here for the drinks or the music. They were here for the drama.
The ship had been sailing for a while, but entertainment had been in short supply.
A high–stakes solo duel like this was exactly the kind of excitement everyone had been craving. Not only could they bet on the outcome, but they also got to witness a thrilling showdown firsthand, which, truthfully, was the whole point of this cruise.
In this world, casinos weren’t so different from those on Earth. The games might vary in style and rules, but they were much the same.
These pre–tournament showdowns were especially unpredictable. The game would be determined at random by a referee, and anything could happen
Now, a professional in a dealer’s uniform stepped forward, carrying a roulette–style wheel etched with the names of various gambling games. Wherever the red pointer landed, that would be the match format, best two out of three.
The rules were brutal–winner takes all.
The loser would not only forfeit their chips, but also their spot in the coveted top–hundred tournament.
The chips hit the table. The dealer pressed a glowing blue button. The pointer spun rapidly, ticking over each segment until it finally slowed and stopped on Roulette.
At the edge of the room, Simon sat alone at the bar, a glass of top–shelf liquor in hand. He eyed the wheel and gave a faint smile. Roulette was Mandy’s signature game.
She was a legend in Baykeep for a reason. Many had tried to beat her at roulette. Almost none had succeeded.
It was a game that demanded more than luck. It required precision,
cold logic, and a mind that could calculate odds in a split second.
Still, even if she won, Simon wouldn’t be impressed. What drew him in wasn’t her skill. It was Shermaine, her wildness, the quiet, unshakable arrogance
in her eyes.
Looking at her flawless skin, he could only imagine how soft she felt under the fingertips.
No woman in the Kingdom of Xyperia could hold a candle to her, not even the most sought–after starlets.
Even if she lost, he still wanted her.
Mandy’s eyes lingered on the wheel as her lips pulled into a faint, knowing smirk.
Shermaine had landed squarely on the one game Mandy was born to play.
Shermaine remained unreadable, but her brows pinched slightly. Something felt off in her chest, tight and uncomfortable.
Her body was producing too much milk, and Gracie wasn’t drinking enough.
Her dress was snug, and the pressure in her chest was building.
It ached, distracting, but manageable. It wouldn’t throw her off.
“If there are no objections, we’ll begin,” the dealer announced.
“None here,” Mandy said coolly.

Shermaine exhaled lazily. “Let’s get started.”
Meanwhile, Jasmine had just gone all in, staking her entire fortune on Shermaine.
She glanced at the online betting pool and let out a short. Most people had wagereti on Mandy.
She grinned to herself, thinking, ‘Idiots. This is going to be the payday of a lifetime. Just wait. You’re all going to lose your shirts!
The dealer moved with swift precision. He picked up a polished metal cup and, with a single deft motion, scooped an uncounted handful of white ch from the pile. He then covered them without pause, sealing the contents from view.
It was time for the players to place

Spectators found themselves growing weary just watching. Their eyes strained to follow each movement, but still, neither player had claimed the lead. Then finally, a shift.
