As Max glanced at Ophelia’s phone, Kali’s interrogation flashed back to him. “Wait a second… I almost forgot…" He pushed himself against the pint-sized goth’s warm cleavage, voice hoarse but urgent. "Kali said the serum was special, right? Maybe that means it could be reversed.”

 

Ophelia blinked, her bangs falling over one eye. She chewed her cheek, black lipstick slightly smudged from earlier nerves. “I mean… your guess is as good as mine. I just grabbed the first vial I saw in the lab. It’s not like they hand out an instruction manual with ‘how to un-shrink your Bio partner.’”

 

She let out a shaky laugh that quickly faded. Her gaze flicked toward the hallway, where distant voices echoed from other rooms. The house was waking up properly now, the Victorian walls carrying footsteps and muffled music. “Vanessa might know. She’s a junior, so she gets to sit in on the upperclass meetings. That’s where they plan this stuff out.”

 

Max’s stomach dropped. He’d never met Vanessa face-to-face—at least, not at normal size—but her reputation filtered through campus whispers like a bad smell. Stories painted her as the kind of Juno goth who didn’t just dominate guys for fun; she broke them until they begged, turning them into living accessories for her moods.

 

“You want to show me to Vanessa?” he asked, voice cracking despite himself. “She’s just as bad as Kali!”

 

Ophelia’s cheeks flushed beneath her foundation. She cupped a hand loosely around him, shielding him from the air as if the walls might overhear. “Hey, I’ll keep you hidden, promise. I’m not an idiot. I’ll think of something to say—make it sound like I’m just curious or whatever. She won’t even know you’re there.”

 

A heavy silence fell, broken only by the old house creaking. Ophelia shifted on the bed, thighs pressing together with a soft rustle of fishnets. She glanced down at him again, biting her lip in that awkward way she did when class presentations went sideways.

 

“But… that means I’ll have to put you back in my butt for a bit,” she said quickly, insecurity lacing her voice. “I can’t really hide you up here. Not like Kali or Vanessa with their… You know. Sorry.”

 

Max stared up, the implication clear. She sounded sheepish, as if admitting her chest wasn’t as generous as the upperclassmen’s was a failing. Her fingers fidgeted with her skirt hem, eyes avoiding his.

 

“I won’t, like…” she mumbled, blushing harder, the color spreading down her neck. “No accidents this time, either. I’ll hold it in. Promise.”

 

He swallowed, mind racing. Remembering being wedged there before—hot, overwhelming, trapped—his pulse spiked. “Does it have to be your… butt? Nowhere else?”

 

“Hmm.” Ophelia tilted her head. “I guess I could put you in one of my boots? But they’re pretty stinky. Your call, I guess.”

 

Every cell in Max’s body screamed no, but he did the math anyway. The boots sounded worse—dark, enclosed, no give. At least with her butt… well, he’d survived it once already. “Fine. Back in your butt. Just… be careful.”

 

She nodded quickly, relief flickering across her face. With surprising gentleness, she lifted him from her cleavage and guided him downward again, sliding him past the waistband of her skirt and into the lacy warmth of her panties. The familiar press of her cheeks enveloped him immediately—soft, yielding flesh that molded around his tiny frame as she adjusted her stance. Heat radiated everywhere, thick and intimate, carrying the faint musk of her skin after the morning’s stress. She didn’t clench too hard, just enough to secure him as she stood, smoothing her pleated skirt down over her hips.

 

“Alright,” she whispered, voice muffled through layers of fabric. “Off we go.”

 

Each step sent ripples through her body, the subtle sway of her walk grinding him deeper into the cleft. The air grew thicker, warmer, but she kept her promise—no sudden releases, just the steady rhythm of movement and the distant thump of her heartbeat echoing around him. Max focused on breathing shallowly, trying not to think about how completely at her mercy he felt. The hallway air whooshed faintly against her skirt as she moved, voices from nearby doors growing louder.

 

“Vanessa?” Ophelia stopped outside one at the end of the corridor, knocking lightly. “You in there?”

 

The door swung open after a moment, and even from his hidden spot, Max caught the shift in atmosphere. Vanessa’s room smelled like incense and old leather, a heavy, spiced haze that seeped through the cracks. From the glimpses he’d heard in stories, it fit her perfectly: walls lined with band posters and antique mirrors, a massive four-poster bed draped in black velvet dominating the space, shelves crammed with chemistry vials and what looked like tiny custom cages on one corner desk. Dim purple lighting cast long shadows, and the floor was scattered with fishnet stockings and combat boots.

 

Vanessa herself filled the doorway like a storm cloud—5’7” of pale, curvy intensity, neon-green hair cropped short and choppy, framing a face set in its usual scowl. Her plump black lips twisted slightly as she leaned against the frame, heavy eyeliner making her eyes even brighter in the low light. A cropped Metallica tee strained over her chest, riding up to show a sliver of midriff above a dark leather skirt that hugged her wide hips and the massive swell of her ass. Fishnets peeked out beneath, and the whole look screamed effortless menace, the kind that backed up every rumor about her.

 

“What do you want, Kidd?” Vanessa’s voice was low, edged with that perpetual annoyance. “Is this about your door again?”

 

Ophelia shifted nervously, pressing Max a fraction tighter against her. “Actually, um… I was wondering if you know where the house gets its shrinking serum?”

 

Vanessa’s scowl deepened, curiosity in her eyes. She stepped aside, motioning Ophelia in. The door clicked shut. “Why are you asking?”

 

Ophelia hesitated only a second, then launched in with that wide-eyed earnestness Max knew too well from Bio lectures. “Well, I heard someone stole a batch from the lab last night, and it got me thinking. I kinda want to go buy some myself.”

 

Vanessa crossed her arms. “For what?”

 

“Oh, y’know.” Ophelia giggled. “There’s this guy, Zeke. I’ve got a super big crush on him, and I think I want to claim him.”

 

Listening in from the back of Ophelia’s underwear, Max did a double-take. Zeke? His roommate? The lie stung, a sharp twist of betrayal amid the humiliation, even if it was just a cover.

 

Vanessa let out a short, sharp laugh—more like a bark than anything amused. “A crush? Jesus, Kidd, you sound like a middle-schooler.”

 

Ophelia’s cheeks burned hotter; Max could feel the warmth radiating down through her body. But she doubled down, voice gaining a dreamy, slightly naive lilt as she leaned against the doorframe. “I know, I know. I just… I feel like most of the guys here don’t even notice me, you know? Except for Zeke. We’re in Intro to Gender Studies together, and he actually sits near me, cracks jokes about the readings, asks if I want to compare notes after. That’s why he feels like the perfect person to show that I mean business.”

 

She paused, the words spilling out with that bubbly earnestness, her body shifting with quiet excitement that pressed Max a little firmer into the soft, warm confines of her ass. “I’ve been thinking about it a lot—how I’d shrink him down, keep him all to myself. Maybe start by slipping him into my panties during a study session, make him squirm while I take notes. Or pin him under my foot after class, let him massage my toes until he’s begging. I’d be gentle at first, but firm, y’know? Teach him how to worship properly, like Miss V says. Nothing too mean, just… enough to show him I’m in charge.”

 

Ophelia laid it on thick, spinning her fantasy with the kind of breathless, innocent detail that made it sound more like a Tumblr fic than a serious plan. She described it all in vivid, almost innocent detail—her voice soft and excited, painting pictures of casual dominance as if she were sharing a fanfic plot rather than a real plan. It made Max’s blood run cold. Vanessa listened, arms still crossed, her expression unreadable behind the scowl. The room felt smaller, the incense thicker, as the older goth’s blue eyes narrowed. She didn’t interrupt, but the way she shifted her weight—hips swaying just enough to emphasize her own curves—hinted at wheels turning. Would she buy it? Laugh it off as freshman eagerness? Or see through the awkward act and drag Ophelia and him straight to Kali for whatever punishment awaited?

 

The silence stretched, heavy and electric. Vanessa’s black lips curled slowly at the corners.

 

“Zeke, huh…” she murmured finally, stepping closer. “Interesting choice.”

 

Max held his breath in the dark, waiting for the hammer to fall.
