Sometimes the one who got away comes back with a vengeance.
Amy can walk away from Janice, but there doesn't feel like any retribution that she can get against Lucian for his betrayal. While she swears that she never wants to see him again, that doesn't seem good enough. He needs to pay for what he did.

“Amy, wait!” My name is a choked sob on Janice's lips.
I want to be deaf to it. I pretend to be deaf to it, opening my closet to find my suitcase. I can't stay in this apartment any longer, not knowing what I know now. Being ignorant was blissful, though there was always the slightest hint of suspicion in the back of my mind.
There aren't many Doms at Flesh. Common sense should have told me that Janice would end up with Lucian. The part of me that truly believed she cared for me as a friend, and that he loved me, tried to pretend that there was no way possible they would do this to me. It was wishful thinking though. Reality is cruel. Everything has been cruel in my world lately. Why should this be any different?
Curse words linger on the tip of my tongue. I want to tell Janice to fuck off, but I remain silent. The goal is to be bigger than her right now. Bigger than both of them. I will gather my things and leave and never speak to either one of them again. That's the best way to handle this.
“We didn't do anything.” Janice leans against the door frame of my bedroom, tears streaming down her face in torrents.
Oh, you didn't? Really? Those marks on your body tell me otherwise.
I'd love to take my time packing, but desperation is getting the best of me. I know Janice isn't going to leave me alone. She's going to trail behind me like a puppy, crying and whining and begging for me to forgive her. Silence is the best punishment. Well, next to my permanent absence from her life.
