As a palace concubine, Lakshmi lives a life of luxury. But her life is not as simple as it seems--her placement in the palace as a concubine is a facade; and when the future of a loved one is threatened, Lakshmi must choose between protecting one that she loves or fulfilling her duty to guard the emperor.
Further complicated by personal entanglements and physical dangers, will Lakshmi be able to save the one she loves without destroying her own life in the process?

I was born a slave, condemned to a fate where freedom was but an unreachable dream. My life led me to the court of Emperor Geta, where I was just a shadow among others, a silent being at the service of imperial power. Everything changed the day Geta chose me to be his concubine. This role, both envied and feared, thrust me into the heart of the court's intrigues, where every smile could hide a betrayal. But my destiny did not end there. Caracalla, Geta's twin brother and legitimate heir, represented the future of the Empire. Charged with watching over him, I discovered a complex man, torn between ambition and vulnerability. An odd and unpredictable relationship formed between us, blending tension, jealousy, and moments of unsettling sincerity. In this ruthless world, the ties between Geta, Caracalla, and me were filled with power, love, and veiled betrayals. With Geta, I shared a fragile complicity, but even affection couldn't protect me from the dangers lurking in the palace corridors. From a mere slave, I became both concubine and protector, navigating between loyalty and survival. My story is that of a woman thrown into the heart of power games, in the shadow of the two imperial twins. This work is a historical fiction inspired by Ancient Rome.Complete
