Title: The Drums of Love
First published: 1979
Description: The lovely young novice Saona walked into the garden and Andre found that he was following her.

"It is very pretty," she said.

"And so are you."

She looked up at him in surprise, and as their eyes met, it was impossible to look away.

They just stood staring at each other. It seemed as if the whole garden vibrated like the sun itself.

"What has happened to us?" Andre asked and the words were almost a whisper. "I want to hold you, kiss you, yet I know it is forbidden..."

The novice gave a little cry and put up her hands to cover her eyes.

"I... I must not... listen to you!"

Instinctively Andre reached out his arms towards her.

"Oh God!" he cried. "I cannot help myself!"
