Breadcrumbs

Lena lingered for just a second, hazel eyes locked on the sight of her skirt swaying on the branch. A marker. A confession. Proof she’d given in once again. She bit her lip, then **** herself to move, boots crunching softly as she trailed after the model down the darker pathway.

The trees closed in overhead, their branches whispering as the night breeze tugged at them. The lamps grew sparser here, the shadows thicker. The model walked easily in front of her, shoulders relaxed, hands sliding casually into her pockets. she glanced back once, eyes glinting, before speaking.

“Do you know the old fairy tale, Lena? The one with the breadcrumbs scattered through the forest?” her voice carried smooth and deliberate, pulling Lena in.

Lena swallowed, her throat dry. “Hansel and Gretel…”

“Mmm.” The model chuckled low, the sound echoing faintly in the stillness. “They left crumbs to find their way back. But you, my sweet… you’ll leave something better.”

Her heart slammed against her chest. She didn’t need them to explain. She already knew. Her clothes—her precious, brand-new clothes—were the breadcrumbs. Every piece she surrendered, a marker that someone could stumble across. Proof she had walked this path and shed herself piece by piece.

The model slowed, falling into step beside Lena, her lips dangerously close to her ear. “By the time we’re finished, you’ll be bare to the night. And if you want to find your way back to me…” her hand brushed the outside of Lena thigh, a teasing touch over sheer fabric. “You’ll have to leave a trail for me to follow.”

Lena’s legs wobbled, the leather jacket suddenly hot against her skin. She tightened her grip on its zipper, caught between instinct to cling to it and the rush of imagining it left behind on another branch, swaying in the night just like her skirt.

She let out a shaky laugh, breathless. “I-I don’t think Hansel and Gretel ever had to strip for breadcrumbs…”

The model’s grin flashed sharp in the dark. “No. But you will.”
