God knows how he gets himself into these situations, Ezio thinks.

That is a relatively common thought for him, in all honesty. Often he finds himself flirting with some girl and shortly after find himself again with his fingers sliding inside that very same girl, or he'll find himself meeting a woman in the market and then shortly after find himself again getting pushed into the hay-stuffed mattress of her bedroom, while her husband works in the fields. When one has a way with women, one often finds oneself in these kinds of positions.

( That, however, would not explain this very moment. )

It's almost frantic; one second Ezio has her on her hands and knees and has barely gotten her pants down past her ass, and then she's already rolling over onto her back, legs to the side, tugging him in for a kiss.

( They fuck right there... )

In many ways, Cesare Borgia is a growing cancer, difficult to contain and even harder to eradicate.

While Ezio can never forget who he's speaking to or the context of their relationship, he can often push from his mind the thought that Cesare Borgia will grow to be a tyrant. This young man is very much like Ezio was in his early twenties: eyes opened wide to the cruelty and injustice of the world, running with an opportunity to gain power, fumbling but acquiring the skills necessary to achieve their goals. Applying these new skills to furthering the goals of his family.

( The key difference, of course, is... )

"I don't want to do lunch with Cesare anymore," Stephanie says, one day.

"It'll be difficult to explain to them why Lucrezia is welcome but Cesare isn't," Ezio replies, barely looking up from his journal. He misses the frown on her face, but catches every note of frustration on her voice. It says this is serious and don't fucking trifle with me, though perhaps with a sweeter choice in language.

( ''That's your problem.'' )

Roma, 1502



Ezio is going down on a recruit when there's a hurried knock at the door. For the moment, he ignores it, preferring to keep his attention on the beautiful young woman squirming under his touch, but it doesn't go away even after a few minutes. In fact, whoever is knocking begins calling his name with urgency, loud enough to drown out his lover's noises of pleasure. It's Stephanie. He knows it's Stephanie. It's always Stephanie, at times like this.

( With a last quick kiss... )
