Red Wolf gambles with peril...make a choice (Patreon)

Theo had gone undercover at the King of Diamonds casino after several heroes had vanished including the King of Heart's son Jake. He was at the table with the King of Diamonds himself hoping to gain information from him but he was being very cryptic and only revealed more information as they played cards. He had won a few games and gained some information but now it was a deciding game.

He looked at his hand which did not look good, but he had maintain a poker face.

The King of Diamonds examined his hand of cards - glancing over at Theo and then the other players. "I raise." He announced - sliding forward a huge pile of chips.

"I see that!" he said putting his chips in as another card is handed to him, with some luck the hand became quite strong, only one hand of cards would beat him, which gave him a more confidence "and I raise!" he said putting the rest of his chips into the pot

The king raised an eyebrow bemusedly as Theo pushed his chips in. "Confident, are we?" He taunted. "I raise." He shoved in more chips.

"uh..wait...I've got no more to put in!" he said

he was certainly not going to fold

"Well then, what will you bet?" He asked with a smirk.

"Damn...got nothing to offer" he cursed as he looked around at the other gamblers that had folded, it was just him and the king.

"Mmm..." the king considered. "How about your company for the night?"

"Well that won't be happening" he thought as he looked at his winning hand "weird...but sure!" he said

The king nodded. "Then I call."

he smirked as he lay his cards down  feeling victory in his grasp. "not tonight King straight flush!"

The king smirked. "Royal Flush." He proclaimed, laying down his own hand of cards.

His eyes widened in surprise, he slammed his hand on the table "no way!"

The king was smirking lightly, raking over the chips.

he was not aware of the king of diamond's own powers over things he wins

The King of Diamonds, blessed with the power to always win, stood up. "Now what to do with my winnings?", he eyed the undercover hero lewdly.

"not tonight, king!" he muttered as he slowly stood up, the night wasn't going as planned and he had to clear an escape route.

"uh uh uh...." the king wagged a finger and Theo found himself sitting down again.

"Huh? wha?" gasped Theo as he sat back down and looked straight at the king unable to move.

"I won you for tonight...so you'll obey my commands right?" the king smirked as he leane over the table

"yes...I am yours for tonight" he replied despite his mind screaming the opposite. "fuck no...got to break his control over me...." he thought.

The king could see Theo's mental struggles and ordered him to follow him up to his chamber.

Theo was helpless to resist as he got up and obeyed, following the king.

Once in the chamber, the king turned to Theo, "I know who you are Wolfyboy so you can switch off that disguise!"

Theo pressed a switch on his cuff and the holographic disguise faded revealing him in his hero outfit.

"good boy! now...." he took out a hand of cards and picked one out at random, not looking at it "let's have the cards decide your fate!" he grinned as he touched the card on Theo. All at once it turned viscous, like a thick gooey latex which spread over the hero, making short work of the hero's costume.

It broke some of the hold the king had and Theo tried to pull the latex away without success. "arrghh...fuck what is this...?"

-now what should be an appropriate fate?
