Toxic Unicorn

Becky Lynn's dating profile said she was looking for a unicorn. Married. Curious. Exploring together.

Alexis matched with her on a Tuesday night. She had green hair, a septum ring, and no intention of becoming anyone's accessory.

The dinner was at a restaurant without prices on the menu. The husband was quiet, brilliant, and paid attention to everything his wife ignored. The wife expected to be the center of every room she entered, every bed she lay in, and every arrangement she designed.

The rules were simple. Everyone attracted. Everyone consenting. Nobody alone with the unicorn.

Becky Lynn broke the rules first.

Nathan remembered what Alexis said about nursing school three weeks later. Becky Lynn could not remember to use her own hands.

Some women are invited for one night.

Alexis decided to redecorate.
