The possession is over, but Father John Black still struggles with the attraction he feels for the woman he saved.

This is my first John and Marlena Fanfiction! I hope you enjoy it. While I mainly write about Strummer, I decided to try to write about my favorite DOOL couple! This story picks up when John finds Marlena at the "new" Maison Blanche. I am hoping to fill in some holes we all wished had been filled. I hope you enjoy it!

A rewrite of the Secret Room with several twists and turns...

During their last stormy night at Maison Blanche John and Marlena reconnect just before Stefano takes them to his private island in the Caribbean. When they arrive, John and Marlena are forcefully separated. Stefano has John reprogrammed, making him a cold, emotionless mercenary once again. Marlena is left feeling alone and defenseless, trying to fight off Stefano's advances, while also trying to find ways to remind the man she loves of how much he cares about her.
