It was a dark night on a shadowy path when two men came face to face. One man carried a knife, the other, a Bible. Rocco Marz was a rebel with a free spirit and a hair-trigger temper. He cursed freely and obeyed no one's rules but his own. Nathan West was a devout churchgoer with a spotless reputation, but something was missing in his life. Once Nathan got to know Rocco, he was drawn to him sexually and tempted to step into his world of sin. But it came at a high price. Did it mean Nathan was doomed forever? Did it mean he was bound for hell? Or did God in His wisdom have a reason for bringing these two conflicting personalities together?

Sin and Salvation

“This is the best you could do?” he asked Preacher who was looking in closets and behind doors.


“I know it’s not much, but it’s private, and I think it has a lot of potential. A little spit and polish is all it needs. Don’t you think?”


“Preacher, it’s a friggin’ dump.”


Rocco got chills when he noticed murky silhouettes of some previous existence along with ghostly laughter that would come and go. As much as he tried, he couldn’t seem to shake the familiarity he felt in the air.


“Who lived here before?” he asked as he continued to look around.


“Not sure, really,” Preacher lied as he made footprints on the dirty floor while he walked around pulling down spider webs and waving his hands to clear the dust in the air.
