Prologue
TEASE TALENT!
Jill had the looks of a sensual lover and a bedroom body. But teasing was her game, and the men who played it with her soon counted themselves among the defeated. Jill had many memories but one in particular governed all her thoughts, her actions. The incident had taken place in her childhood, one humid afternoon when she had watched her sister give herself to a boy, and give the boy everything he wanted. Watching the sweating bodies, the wanton acts, the bestial hungers had been enough for Jill to keep men at arm's length for most of her life. But sometimes she let them get closer. Sometimes she allowed them their abandoned caresses, exchanged shameless touch for touch, enjoyed mutual exploration. But when they thought to exert their masculine vigor, they found the starlight was not in Jill's eyes but glinting off the razor-sharp blade. Jill always played the game to win. Her heart was only for Laura. A long-time Lesbian. Frank S. Caprio, in his study Female Homosexuality, writes of the high incidence of sadomasochistic feelings in Lesbians: " ... definite sadomasochistic trends characterized by behavior actions of hostility alternating with feelings of self-pity." This was Jill.
