A sequel to 'Last Man Standing'

The engagement of the Romallian Prince, Decimus Octavius Marcellus, to the Nevarus Princess, Emrys Marsinah, is being celebrated with a week long gladiator tournament in the Capitol! The final event is none other than the execution of Marcus, son of Romallia's most notorious traitor and brother to the Prince's former fiancée...

But Candra isn't about to let that happen.

Now that she's won her place amongst Tiberius' champion gladiators, Candra will have to return to the colosseum that haunts her nightmares in order to save her brother from the same fate as her father.

But will she be able to maintain her mask as a talented boy gladiator? Or will she take a shot at revenge when she finally comes face to face with Maximus? 

And with the Scruffy Man and Evander still vying for her attention, what will happen when Decimus walks back into her life?

With the terrors of war forever looming over the Empire and a seemingly impossible rescue mission still underway, Candra is forced to get more blood on her hands and watch those she cares about perish. Perhaps one day the blood will be her own...

Death comes for us all.

Rerise de Brei_Mcgillicutty_17

The second rise of the Roman empire has arrived. Emperor's reign again. The gladiator games are no doubt soon to follow. The cause: a tyranny driven parasitic virus moving in a slow crawl to overtake the human realm. Transmission: Sadism. The more you enjoy others' pain, the more susceptible you become. What's the prize to the torturous nine rounds of gladiator games? The cure. After all, what is more sadistic than a pipe dream? The games have only become more meticulous. It's no longer brute force and strategy alone that will keep you alive. Calliope is small, weak and so sick her brain is fogged 90% of the time. There is no way she is going to survive one round, let alone win the cure But if that truly is the case, why can the supposedly infected emperor not take his eyes off her?
