Infuriating. Her curiosity would be the death of her. Verona had only wanted to know what really happened behind closed doors of this "satanic church". Yet, her she was. Sitting in the VIP lounge with the pope himself. The pet names amuse and, dare she say, endear her. The other part of her wants to pick him apart with her sharp claws. She wonders what she'd find in his chest. A heart that beats like any other or would there be a void that mimics it's former self? Her intensity is softened as he bows his head, she takes as reverence, to kiss her hand, and gift his tribute.
A smirk appears on her face as her legs cross over each other. A single claw raises to trace along his jugular before tipping his chin up. a slight pressure but nothing more. For now. Just as quick as she granted her touch, it was gone. "It will do for the moment, Copia. I am more hungry than thirsty," Verona slides the last sentence, hoping he caught her meaning. "perhaps there is a ghoul you're not particularly fond of wandering about," she hummed against her glass as she took a sip. It burned and tasted like sludge on her tongue. A slight grimace marks her otherwise satisfied expression.

it would be remiss of him if he did not indulge in her beauty. verona’s milky, pale thighs part and one corner of his mouth twitches into a smirk, languidely bringing his pointed gaze back to the woman’s eyes. no shame, only the cognizance that she knows he’s staring. that his eyes could touch what his hands could not.
a thrill buzzes down copia’s spine like a live wire when verona reaches for him with a clawed finger. copia tries to ignore the call of his own hunger. he grips the back of the leather chair. when he speaks, it’s low, almost a purr.
❛❛ and let you ruin your appetite ? ❜❜ the demon pope’s laughter follows with a measured grace, trying to reign himself in. doing little to stop his leather bound finger from running up her bare back, along her spine, where his own excitement could be felt.
❛❛ is d’at what you’ve been told -- well. who am i to disagree with the masses, i’m just ⁻ ᵉʰʰʰʰʰ ⁻ a humble old man. ❜❜ pleased, secretly, his bravery arrives; ❛❛ you could come, of course. tell me, sweet verona, how do you look in a habit? ❜❜
