    About this ebook

    Lena and Dante had a wonderful relationship. They had spent the last two years learning each other and what they had learned was that they loved each other enough to get married. Now engaged, Lena gets the crazy idea to try something fun to spice up their relationship; she decides to bring in another woman for a one night, no strings attached, ménage a trois. It was a fantasy of hers as an adolescent woman and one she wanted to fulfill before she and Dante finalized their marriage. Unfortunately for Sophia, sex with no strings is hard for an emotionally and romantically starved woman such as herself who is truly seeking nothing but love to erase the years of pain and abuse she's endured. Special is the story of one couple's fantasy becoming their worst nightmare and an innocent experiment that soon becomes a fatal attraction.

      Daydreams

      The Prologue

      Sophia: He read me poems while he talked spiritedly about the life in him that had awakened since meeting me. Staring me in my eyes he read the words...

      "She’s in the house

      She’s at turn after turn

      She’s behind me

      She’s in front of me

      She’s in my bed

      She’s on path after path

      And I’m weak from want of her,

      O heart,

      There is no reality for me

      Other than she, she, she, she..."

      I swear I could sue him for plagiarism Sophia. He had said to me so playfully. I loved him, he was so misunderstood. And the fact that I understood him was my key, it was my personal key to his heart. I became his new existence; I was his breath of life, the only color in his black and white world.

      You’re ruling the way I move, and I breathe your air...

      Sade had sung to him and her romantic sonnets became the ambitions of his inner romantic. His dream woman would personify the lyrics to his favorite Sade songs...I was the embodiment of those lyrics to him.

      We fought once. I said. You don’t really know me.

      He said. I beg to differ.

      I said. Why is that?

      He said. To say I don’t know you is to say I don’t know myself. We’re one in the same.

      How do you figure? I asked.

      How do you figure we’re not? he shot right back.

      Not in the mood to play his game I said, I have a past.

      He simply said,

      And so do I. Every rose has its thorns, and he who wants a rose must respect the thorns. One of the most admired flowers can also be one of the most painful...like love...

      Dante was deep. I always wondered if she knew that side of him. O well, I did, and that’s all that really mattered. We would have run away together, I know it, but she took him away from me before I could tell him that he too had brought me back to
