I lived in the dark for three years. My whole world revolved  around the whims and happiness of three men. 
It was just a trip into the  forbidden. A way out of a bad situation and forward into nothingness.
Quin, with his easy smile and charming good looks. He was  always there for me… Until he wasn’t.
Smith, and his dispassionate attention. He was never there  for me and he never regretted it.
Bric, the one who listened, but only to himself.
Self-absorbed, self-obsessed, and self-serving. He was never the one I wanted.
And now he might be the only one I have left.
It was good while it lasted, I guess. But it could’ve been  so much more. It could’ve been so much better. And that’s why I’m turning back.

Excerpt

“So then  what happened?” Bric asks.
We’re  sitting at our booth in the White Room. Before I left, I’d sit in the middle of  the bench, Quin would sit across from me in a chair, and Bric would sit to my
left.
Bric is  still to my left, Quin isn’t here yet—if he’s coming at all—and Adley is in her  baby seat on my right.
Everything  is familiar—but off.
“Then he  went to bed.”
“What’d you do?”
“I sat  there on the couch for a while trying to figure out what happened.”
“What did you come up with?” Bric is looking very intently at me. Like everything I’m  saying is critically important.
“He hate-fucked me, that’s what I came up with, Bric!”
“Rochelle,”  Bric says, throwing me one of those Don’t overreact looks.
“I’m  serious. There’s no other explanation for it. He hate-fucked me. Revenge fuck.  Whatever you want to call it. That’s what happened last night.” I sigh and try  not to feel depressed and sad.
“And then this morning I got out of bed to go  check on Adley when she woke up, and when I came back, he was gone.”
“Gone?”
Bric asks. “Where’d he go?”
“Just  left,” I say. “I texted him. Asked if he’d be here for breakfast. And he never  texted back.”
“He’s just  mad,” Bric says.
“I know.” I huff. “He told me that last night too. He spelled it out very clearly. He was  worried about me. Sad about my leaving. But then when I came back—”
“Now he’s  just angry.”
“Right.”
“It’s a  pretty typical reaction,” Bric says.
“I realize  that. Which is why I’m not going to make a big deal about this. But I don’t  know if this is going to work, Bric. He might not want me. He might just want  to hurt me. Exactly the way I hurt him.”
“No,” Bric  says, like I’m being ridiculous.
“I’m not  being ridiculous,” I say. “Maybe he’s not out to hurt me. But he’s doing  something, Bric. He’s playing a game, but I’m pretty sure we’re not all playing
the same game.”
“He’s mad,  Rochelle. You have to expect that. He’s gonna come around.”
“What does  that mean? Come around? Do you really think he’s gonna fall back in love with  me the way he was? Because I don’t. I think he’s here for us. Me, you, and him together. And that’s all.”
Bric rubs  his hand across his scratchy jaw as he thinks this over, so I check on Adley.  She fell asleep in the car on the way over here and hasn’t woken up yet. Bric  is still thinking.
“I don’t  want an us, Bric.”
He looks me in the eye and says. “I do. But I get it. And I’m fine with you and Quin  getting your little happy ending. But I’m telling you, Rochelle, he’s just
trying to protect himself right now and the best way to let him work that out
and ensure you two get back together is to have an us.”
“He said he  doesn’t trust me.”
“He has a  good reason,” Bric counters.
“I know  that,” I say, starting to get angry. “I understand that. But the whole point of  us doing this… game… or whatever it is, was so that you can help me figure this  out. I want him, Bric. You’re supposed to help me.”
But as soon  as the words come out of my mouth I realize how stupid that is. I trust no one  and I have very good reasons for that. I’ve learned over the course of my life  that people are selfish. People are out for themselves. People are liars. I
have a lot of experience in being lied to.
Elias  Bricman definitely fits all those assumptions I have about people. And then  some.
