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 slowly made my way over toward him, to where he stood on my other side of the room.  I longed to reach out and touch him, even if for a mere moment… 


	“Slow down, my sweet.”  Terrence reached his arm up to meet my hand.  He grabbed me, then slowly entwined his fingers, there, with mine.


	“How did this happen?”  I stammered, her face flushing with pure desire. “I never thought it’d come to this.  I just haven’t felt this way in so long.”  My eyes bulged, then my hands automatically, instinctively fled to my hair.  I tugged at several strands, attempting to smooth each one of them out.


	“Dear, why does it matter?  You won’t have me forever.”  I took in his long, flowing, dark hair, his smooth lips, his seductive smile.  The way that he allured me could truly not be compared to the way that any other man could have done so.


	I gazed deeply into Terrence’s eyes, preparing at any moment to share deeply in a passionate kiss, or even, something far more.
