Time to Go

She really only had two options in the situation: give in or do something about it. After a few fearful, tearful hours, Milli had chosen the latter.

In Lion’s Arch she remained too easily found if Dexten decided to confront her. Tom had pointed out this weakness, but Milli had thought her connections within the organization would protect her. That was obviously not the case anymore. She would have to leave until she was safe.

And Tom…oh Tom. He loved Dexten. Likely more than he did her. The woman had tried to kill her just for asking after him. If Dexten smelled him on her or saw them having fun together or holding hands, that would be it. She would have died for Tom, but that death wouldn’t be for him. It would be for another woman’s pride and jealousy. And it would hurt him more than just leaving him would. At least Milli hoped so.

With Tia she left keys to both her house and the shop. The woman could keep things running while she was gone. She left a note in the shop for Jack, assuring him of her return. She cleaned out her account at the Bank of all but the pennies. The full 50 gold for Dexten’s bounty was in a sack in the till.

Her bags were packed. Time to go.
