In the heart of ancient Rome, love is the most dangerous rebellion. Aelia Decima Servius has lived her life in silence - trained to obey, to marry the man her father chooses, and to smile while her freedom fades. But when she meets General Alexios, a Greek soldier with quiet strength and haunted eyes, everything she's been taught begins to unravel. Torn between duty and desire, Decima risks everything to follow her heart - defying a ruthless nobleman, her family's expectations, and the laws of Rome itself. As betrayal brews and war shadows the empire, Decima must decide what she's willing to sacrifice: her name, her honor, or the only man who ever saw her for who she truly is. "Rome taught me duty. He taught me freedom."

When two billion-dollar empires collide, love becomes the most dangerous gamble. Alexian Ezhekiel Cruz Veyra, heir to a powerful global conglomerate, has everything-wealth, power, and influence-yet his world feels empty until he meets Seraphina Velia Alonzo, a brilliant heiress with a quiet rebellion burning in her soul. Their union, arranged to strengthen family empires, seems perfect on the outside: a wedding fit for royalty, a life of privilege, and the promise of an heir. But behind the glittering empire walls, Seraphina feels trapped in a golden cage. Bearing Alexander's child only intensifies her longing for freedom, for a life where love is not bound by contracts or dynasties. When she finally dares to escape, she discovers that leaving a billionaire's world is more dangerous than she ever imagined. Alexian, once the man who thought he could buy loyalty, finds himself fighting for something money can't secure-her heart. As secrets unravel, betrayals surface, and family empires tremble, both must decide: Is love worth risking everything they were raised to protect? A tale of power, passion, and the price of freedom-"Behind the Empire Walls" reveals that even in the richest empires, the heart is the truest ruler.
