Double Cross. – The story of Diana and her forbidden love.

Diana was irresistible in every sense of the word. She had Caine, the feared, the admired, the famous Caine, wrapped around her little finger. Diana wasn't just a pretty face though; she was cunning and sly though she didn't always show it. Caine had doubts about her loyalty but Diana was always able to reel him back in, even if it meant kissing him.

Caine was not what Diana wanted however. Caine was clumsy and awkward when he tried to be intimate, and she viewed him only as a blundering little boy who was blessed with superior powers. Sam however - he was another story altogether. Sam was confident around girls, well Astrid anyway, and he had a certain quality to him that Diana couldn't pinpoint. The knowledge that under no circumstance was Diana allowed see Sam made him even more appealing to her. Diana wouldn't mind walking all over the all-too-clever Astrid in the process either.

One winter night, Diana left Coates. She was hungry and the food was running perilously low. She was fed up with Caine's nightmares and neediness; she wanted some fun of her own. Diana had dressed herself in a tight red tube dress, which certainly maximised her assets. Her long hair was curled and she had pulled on a cream slouchy jumper. She walked straight into Perdido Beach, no one questioned her, though some of the kids stopped to stare. She walked straight into the town hall, where Sam was reading a long to-do list. She sat down in the cool leather seat and saw the look of alarm on Sam's face when he saw her. A thin smile spread across Diana's face. "Missed me?" she said seductively.
