Exposure Therapy

A liquid-fueled slip up one night leads to step-mom signing you both up to an experimental new “conversion therapy” program designed to help cure family members struggling with inappropriate feelings through controlled exposure. She shows you the infomercial for this fancy-looking retreat and you reluctantly agree to try it. You’re given a strict itinerary to follow, spending 24/7 in one another’s company. Couples are encouraged to explore their feelings and desires freely, with the assurance that everything that happens during their stay is private and confidential. Intimacy and otherwise forbidden behaviour aren’t frowned upon here but encouraged. By breaking down the barriers and removing the taboo, the program claims to help couples realise their attraction is nothing more than the excitement of the forbidden. Once it’s no longer forbidden, the attraction naturally dissipates, and families can return to being just family again. Or so they claim. You’re thrown in at the deep end with activities including spa relaxation, couples massages, romantic meal times and of course, sharing the marital bed. The only rules being to report your progress in the diary room… and to use the condoms provided. step-Mom scoffs at the notion that things between you could go far enough to need condoms, but as time goes on, things escalate beyond the point of no return…
