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.

Vatican Nights

	I began to tremble nervously.  I wasn’t entirely certain that I was ready for all of this.


	“What exactly do you know about me?”  I shuddered at the thought, at the prospect that Terrence knew things about me, perhaps my deepest, darkest secrets.

	“I’m not playing with anything.  I just… I’m frightened of my future.”


	The black widow’s eyes then grew very large, to the point of practically bulging out of his tiny body.


	“I’m afraid that you’re frightened for all the wrong reasons.”


	I then leaned over, suddenly overcome with the compulsion to vomit all over her bedroom floor.
