Summary
Cardinal Giulio Sabbadin, the razor-tongued and emotionally repressed Archbishop of Milan, is unraveling. His world shifts when he discovers that his best friend, the serene and precise Cardinal Thomas Lawrence, is secretly dating Vincent. This revelation stirs feelings Giulio doesn’t want to name—not about Thomas, but about being left behind.
Enter Monsignor Raymond O’Malley: Thomas’s gentle, composed Irish secretary. Raymond is everything Giulio is not—gracious, unflappable, kind—and the only person who seems immune to Giulio’s cutting sarcasm. Raymond sees straight through him, and worse, seems to care anyway.
Watching all this unfold are Cardinal Goffredo Tedesco and Cardinal Aldo Bellini, now blissfully coupled and cohabiting after years of theological warfare and romantic tension. Goffredo, chaotic and loving every minute of Giulio’s meltdown, makes it his mission to meddle. So does Thomas. So does Vincent. :)

Summary
In a quiet university nestled somewhere between poetry and politics, six professors orbit one another in coffee-stained offices and wine-drenched lecture halls.
Raymond O’Malley teaches literature with too much heart. Giulio Sabbadin teaches philosophy like he’s allergic to his own feelings. They’ve been almost-something for years — all soft glances, tangled limbs, and carefully unspoken things — until Raymond finally asks for more... and Giulio fumbles it.
What follows is a slow unraveling: of friendships, facades, and faculty reputations. Raymond tries to move on. Giulio pretends he already has. Meanwhile, their colleagues — Goffredo (the chaos agent), Aldo (the unflappable dean), Vincent (the quiet romantic), and Thomas (the master of discretion) — get pulled into the fallout.
Academic conferences are one thing. Unlearning emotional repression at seventy? That’s the real thesis.
A slow-burn, second-chance romance about aging, academia, and the terrifying act of saying what you actually want.

Summary
“Is this how you want me?” Thomas asks, then blushes at the implied sexuality in the question. I didn’t mean to say it like that, he almost begins. But in a way, it is exactly what he means. His hands are on the table in front of him, back arched as much as his old body can take it. Thomas can almost hear the creaking of his muscles; between that and his trembling, he must look a fright to poor Ray.
Or: Thomas is afraid of his cancer coming back. Ray has an idea of what might help.

Summary
The letters that follow have been carefully gathered, catalogued, and translated by our dedicated research team. Drawn from documents originally written in Dari, Arabic, and Spanish, they have been rendered here into English with both precision and deep respect by our translation staff, many of whom spent months laboring over turns of phrase, idioms, and handwritten ambiguities. This was not merely an act of linguistic translation, but of emotional stewardship.
Our intention in presenting these letters is not to sensationalize the private correspondence of a man who once wore the most public of robes. Rather, it is to offer the world a more complete picture—one that history, for all its ceremony and record-keeping, has never been able to capture fully.
Vincent Benítez—known to most as His Holiness Innocentius XIV—was, above all else, a man.

Summary
In a world where soulmates are marked by divine design, Aldo Bellini knew from childhood that he was not alone. He felt every violent blow and every pang of hunger that never reciprocated, and that overwhelming anger that only grows.
Goffredo Tedesco, the youngest of twelve siblings in a family mired in poverty, has had a phrase etched into his skin in elegant foreign script since he was four years old: "You should be ashamed." He never understood the weight of those words... until the day his soulmate finally spoke them.
