    Summary

    This is a story of broken trust and fragile hope, of a man who learns to be a father, of a love tested by time and silence—and remade by truth.
    Because no matter how far they ran, no matter how deep the hurt… every path, every choice, every road was always leading here.
    All roads lead to you.

    Summary

    – Томас, – сказал Альдо так, как обращаются к потерявшимся в толпе детям. – Ты позвонил мне через полмира в середине ночи, из этого я делаю вольный вывод, что мое мнение тебе интересно. Оно таково: если кто-то в нашем грешном мире и заслуживает небольшой поблажки, так это ты.

    За пятнадцать лет до своего последнего конклава, Томас Лоренс путешествует, влезает в приключение и встречает незабываемого человека.

    Summary

    Thomas had been mesmerized by that gaze since the very start, when the Holy Father, then Cardinal Vincent Benítez, had looked up at him in that small room in the Santa Marta, hands clasped gently in his lap, with nothing to his name but a few official documents. Thomas had felt his heart skip a beat when those kind yet strong, unyielding eyes had settled into his own, Vincent’s lips quirking upwards just so.

    At the end of the Conclave, Thomas Lawrence had thought the worst to be behind him. But, apparently, God wasn't entirely done with him yet. First, he'd had to deal with the late Pope denying his resignation. Then with Adeyemi and Tremblay nearly toppling the Church over. And now...now Thomas had fallen in love with the Pope.

    Summary

    Something has to be in the water. All of a sudden, Thomas is clingy like a koala, and on the other end, the Holy Father has chosen late-night excursions to "help" Aldo "practice" city driving to renew his license.

    Sure, Aldo may rejoice being laved with so much attention after losing the papacy. He's only human, after all.

    However, Vincent's and Thomas' relationship is rapidly cooling, and he finds himself grasping onto both men.

    Summary

    A month after the Conclave, Vincent Benítez, now Pope Innocent XIV, gets stuck in an elevator. It's not the kind of event that should have the potential to derail his entire pontificate, but it has. When the demons from his past come bursting into the Apostolic Palace and shake up a lot of well-established routines and certainties, it falls to a very unlikely alliance of friends, both old and new, to mount the defence and drive them back out. In the process, Thomas Lawrence learns things about their new Pope that he would not have imagined in his wildest dreams, and he finally finds the courage to be more to him than just another faithful servant.

    Summary

    Was he just paranoid? Was he so far gone that he was just imagining things? Maybe, but Thomas kept praying, focusing on the words of his prayer, as he swore something stood right next to his bed. All he could hear, however, was the clock, the beeping and whirring of the monitors, and the sound of his own labored breaths in the darkness.

     

    Give us this day our daily bread,

    and forgive us our trespasses,

    as we forgive those who trespass against-

     

    He let out a choked sound as a hand covered his mouth, tilting his head to the side, and something sharp latched onto his neck, digging into his flesh.

    -Or-

    Thomas’ cancer returns, but someone prevents his death by turning him into a vampire. Unsure of how to navigate this new life, he seeks out Vincent Benitez to help find the vampire that turned him.

    Summary

    I am a crooked piece of iron, and I come into religion to be made straight by the hammer of mortification and penance.

    Summary

    A few months into Innocent's papacy, an incident arises where not enough beds are provided for the Pope's traveling companions. Rather than force Thomas to sleep on a couch or go to a hotel, Vincent insists they share the large bed provided to them.

    What they don't expect, however, is to find out how touch-starved they both are and how wonderful it feels to fall asleep in each other's arms.

    Summary

    "Let me help.” A hundred years or so from now, I believe, a famous novelist will write a classic using that theme. He'll recommend those three words even over “I love you."
    - Star Trek, 'The City on the Edge of Forever'

    Pope Innocentius may be, as the papers say, pure, unblemished, a saint in human form - but Vincent Benítez is very much a man, and wants nothing more than to go home.

    Thomas Lawrence will see him through, no matter the cost.
