Pope Leo's daughter, Kitty, is a witch who is always engaging herself in some form of adventure -- telling stories entwined within stories. All, of course, told from behind the scenes of the Vatican.
"I looked at him with glassy eyes, regretting deeply all the time I had invested in coming to know him.  Day after day – whenever I had the urge, that is – I’d ventured forth dreamily in the outskirts of the Vatican, privately, away from my father.  Sometimes he’d even set aside special time for me to visit him, even if he was busy with “pack business.”
"But still.  Nothing.  Nothing more than the cradle of my black, dismal silence.  Screams from a primal spirit.  My Emanuel.
I knew him all too well.  He was just so out of this world.  The passion that I felt..."

Vatican Nights

	I felt all the blood rising in my face – no, my entire body – and shivered as the temperature suddenly changed.  Dropping steadily, by endless degrees.


	“Shocked, are we?  I’ll tell you… Kitty, your name shall be plastered on the walls… Dark Slut, Kitty… until the very day you breathe your last.  Then we’ll see if you make it to eternity.”


	I desired, with all my heart, to fight back fervently, but I had been shocked into submission, so it seemed.  And slowly… I then began to realize…


	Charity slowly faded, then appeared, then faded.  Hypnotically, though, tantalized… I was utterly enchanted, yet completely horrified… because my mind couldn’t stop. The visions, they would not cease.


	And suddenly, maddeningly – “threatening to choke the life that she gave” – I watched in awe, insatiably, entranced, as Charity metamorphosed – growled, teeth bared, wolfishly.
