Ezio stood in front of La Rosa Colta for the first time in twelve years. A guard walked past and gave him a head gesture of respect. His helmet gleamed in the afternoon sun, it wasn't hard to notice him.

'I need to take this armor off, but it feels great to be back.' He smiled as he walked into the front door of the brothel.

The red interior is still the same throughout the place with courtesans everywhere. Ezio remembers half of the ladies there. Men were escorted by the most beautiful of women up the stairs. Then two ladies walked up to him, who where his regulars before he was an assassin.

'Ezio, it's been a while.' A lady in red said in a seductive manner.

'How do you know it's me?' Ezio replied with an intriguing look on his face.

'How can you not be recognised? Your smell can be smelt from a city away.' A girl in a green dress smiled grimly, and then grabbed his right arm softly. The girl with a red dress grabbed his left arm and slowly tugged it towards the stairs.

Meanwhile, Christina came into the brothel for another night of tiring work as an escort. She slumped into Paola's office, which was a slightly darker red than the interior outside. It was a small office, but cosy at the same time. She took the last swig of wine from the bottle in her hand and placed it on the desk.

'You've been drinking again Christina?' Paola took the bottle and placed it under her desk.

'Merda, you've noticed.'

'Please. I am trying to help you get through problems at the moment, but i can only do so much.'

'I never asked you for any help!' Christina stood up and walked towards the door.

'Relax my child. I won't have you taking any clients tonight, you're not well. Just go home.'

'What about this man?' And she pulled Ezio into her office, along with the two women.

'He's been working so hard to protect this city from criminals, i have to show him a good time, don't you think Paola?' Christina asked.

'Well...' Paola couldn't fully respond because she already left the office and was halfway up the stairs with Ezio in her arms. The two other escorts were abandoned in the office.

'She shouldn't have taken him.' The lady in red said with a worried look on her face.

'Well she'll get a shock won't she?' The lady in green snickered.

'Wait why?' Paola asked in panic, she was starting to get worried about her best worker.

'Well in the guard armour is the famous Ezio Auditore Da Firenze.' they both answered in synchronization.

'This is not good, Christina!' Paola screamed as she ran up the stairs and was saddened by the drunken woman's door shut and locked.

'Cazzo.' Paola whispered under her breath as she walked slowly back to her office.

Christina leaned on the door to hear if Paola had left yet. She turned the light off as she lead Ezio to the elegant queen sized bed, with linen cloth draping from the top of the frame.

'So what's your name? I haven't seen you around these parts.' Ezio pondered on the curvy woman before him.

'Christina Vespucci. I cannot believe you have not heard of me!'

Everything just clicked in Ezio's mind at that moment. It was his first love, the forbidden love. He remembers when he stopped Vieri from assaulting her and that's when she started to get interested in him. That night when he climbed up to her window to make love to her, and then in the morning was abruptly woken by her father. That was the last time he ever saw her and hasn't forgotten her since. But in his eyes, she has changed a lot, or maybe the dress she is wearing makes her look more beautiful in the moonlight. The blood red clothing stands out against her pale white skin. Ezio looked from her bright hazel eyes, to her juicy red lips, longing to interlock his with hers once again. He then noticed her hourglass figure.

He strode towards her and rested his hand around her waist, took off his helmet and pressured his lips against hers. Ezio missed her soft lips touching his lips. The strong breeze from outside, blew through the window and extinguish the many candles around the room.

'It's been a while Christina, but it's good to be back with you.' Ezio whispered as he kissed her forehead and ran out of the window the next morning. He went to recieve a letter from a pigeon coop.

Meanwhile, the sunlight seeped through the drapes on to the eyes of Christina. She had vague memories of the night before, but she opened her eyes and spotted a feather on her hand, she grinned.

'Oh Ezio. Why does everything remind me of you?' She whispered.

She turned around to figure out what happened last night, but saw no one there. No trace whatsoever could tell her who she was with last night. All she knew was that she had a terrible headache and remembering a tall figure making love to her last night. Her body tingled at the mere thought of it.

She then heard loud footsteps coming towards her door.

'It must be Paola, I have to get out or else she'll kill me.'

Loud bangs to erupted on her door.

'Wait! A woman needs to prepare for a visitor.' Christina announced.

'This won't take long.' A familiar voice spoke.

Suddenly the door came crushing down and Christina only had her undergarments on.

'Vieri? I thought you were dead!'

'Well here i am! Healthy and fit just for you my love.' He grinned towards Christina with a look in his eyes that she had already seen before, when he attempted to assault her. The feather that Christina left on the bed, ascended from the bed sheets due to the open window to the right of the bed. It then gracefully fell to the wooden floor.
