Julia Gaia has known nothing but the shores of the Roman Empire in the comfort of Palatine Hill. The wealthy kingdom of Kayeton proposes a marriage between their emperor and Rome's lovely princess, Julia Gaia. Her mother, Livia, is against the match as she wants her daughter to marry a Roman she has already picked. However, Augustus's feelings towards the match are all political. Kayeton had borders close to Britain and enough gold to ensure prosperity between both empires. Julia Gaia is the only surviving child of her parents, bringing together the great Claudian family and the Gens Juli family. Yet, Gaia's destiny is not in Rome but in the superpower that has controlled the Western world for over 700 years.

Mahnoor was a second-year history student. Sharp-tongued, fiercely independent, and never afraid to speak her mind. Her latest coursework focused on the lives of powerful figures who had shaped India's history. That was when she discovered him. An emperor unlike any other, undefeated in war, feared by rival rulers, praised by historians, yet infamous for his cruelty. The deeper she read about him, the more her hatred for him grew. It was clear to her that the textbooks tried to balance his brilliance by sugarcoating his brutality. To Mahnoor, his name was soaked in blood. One afternoon, while sitting in the university library, she seethed to her friend, "Still. If one of those women had rebelled, her name would be in this book today. I'm angry that none tried to do so." "I wish I was there. I really do." "I would have said things everyone was scared to utter to his face. He wasn't feared because he was powerful, rather, he was feared because people feared for their lives. And that is not power." "He won't be remembered because he was great, but because he did things no one could ever forget." That night, on a rainy street in Mumbai, her car nearly hit an old woman who was crossing the road. Mahnoor quickly got out to confront her, but before she could speak, the old woman looked straight into her eyes and cursed her. "So, you wish you were there? You think you could speak, rebel, and change history with your voice? Then go. Let's see how your voice will be heard in a palace where a woman's opinion holds no importance. Your freedom will shatter because rebellion there means death.
