Let It Go — K.D. West

What happens when your nightmare wanders into your happily-ever-after dream?

If Helen has anything to say about it, it isn't going to end well for the nightmare

Helen was happy.

Of course she was happy. Why wouldn't she be happy? She had every reason to be happy.

Here she was, walking down the path from the beachside, open-walled cabin where she'd left her lovers, Al and Tommy, back asleep after an amazing morning of passion -- of passion for real, as Tommy put it. Passion with a purpose. Passion to make the baby they all wanted.

She could feel the remainder of that passion as she sauntered down the sandy path toward the yoga studio, her rolled mat over her shoulder. It felt wonderful.

It felt… terrifying.
