John Black sat in his office at Basic Black. Unable to get his wife, Marlena Evans out of his mind. They had both been preoccupied lately with work and other commitments and hadn't spent much if any time together in recent weeks. Their sex life, what there was of it, was reduced to whipping off …
Nightmares “No… No… NO!” His screams filled the night as he lay dreaming of the unknown. He tossed and turned, trying to rid his mind of the horrible visions that plagued him in his sleep. Hearing his cries of terror, she got out of her own bed in the next room, and came …
It was a hot day in Spain. The airport was crowded with tourists. Four of them had just arrived from the states. It was Marlena Evans, her twin sister Samantha and two friends of her sister, Hope and Kristen. Marlena disliked her sisters friends. Every opportunity they got they treated her like garbage.
