Devil's Kiss

Nelson College, NY - 1980

The card on the door of room fifteen read: Sam B. Williams and Sam B. King. Inside, the two young men met each other for the first time.

They were both tall young men, well built. Each of them wore their hair short, just a bit longer than military fashion. They were older than average Freshmen, for each had spent three years in the military.

"Well, with two Sam's and two B's, that ought to confuse everybody around here," a young man laughed.

"Yes," the second young man smiled, his black eyes giving away nothing. "What's your initial stand for?"

"Balon. How about yourself?"

"Black."

Sam Balon King looked at a picture on a dresser. A very beautiful young woman, with dark eves and shining black hair. "She's lovely."' he said. "Your girl?"

"My twin sister."

"Sure! I should have noticed. What's her name?"

"Nydia."
