    Summary

    This novella tells how Nero’s mother and Vergil met in Fortuna, fell in love, faced danger, protected each other, and parted ways before Vergil could know he was a father.

    EXCERPT:
    A lovely cerulean glow reached across the floor from between two bookcases, in the section dedicated to the history of the underworld and its beginnings. The earliest recordings. [Miranda] frowned. Precious few could read such ancient scribblings. The blue light drew her on.
    Another aged page of fragile parchment turned.
    She gathered a deep breath and stepped into the aisle, into the streak of the alluring azure glow.
    The man was tall and wore high leather boots. His elegant three-tailed coat was of foreign fashion, a brilliant shade of cosmic blue edged in deep gold. His hands were gentle with the book he perused, dressed in gloves that had seen hard abuse. A katana hung at his side, its hilt adorned in white thread and shining gold. A heavy frown was set upon his brow as he studied the book. His hair was slicked back neatly, save for a short tendril or two that hung above his eyes.
    White hair.
