Wrote part of this back in 2013.

It is a companion to the canon and completed it Feb 2021 and EDITED better June 2021. Still not fully edited, but I loved reading it again and again. 

It's ending is supposed to be a cliff hanger to a potential spin off series I have been writing for years which follows the First Triumvirate, BEFORE Caesar becomes Dictator for life. Still unfinished but I have been writing that series HBO! STARS! WHOEVER WANTS TO PICK UP THIS GENRE. lolAll Rights Reserved

You're in your senior year at the Academy when Doctor Gaul decides alongside her gamemakers that the mentorship program should be reinstated. You're tasked with making the Capitol fall in love with your tribute during the 15th Annual Hunger Games. After your tribute claims victory, as well as captures the hearts of the Capitol and your own, Professor Gaul calls you into her office. She's seen your promise as a student and invites you to take on an internship underneath her. The catch is you just work closely with Coriolanus Snow, one of her newest apprentice gamemakers. Something about him upon first glance forms a deep pit inside your stomach; there's something off about that man. While the intention to put you alongside him was to help advance your studies, it's clear he has something else in mind. He wasn't lying when he said, "I'll teach you everything." Set 5 years after the events in "The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes." Story is for mature audiences only. *WARNING: SMUT* *WARNING: Coriolanus Snow is a manipulative man!* DISCLAIMER: I do not own these characters, outside of OC's, nor anything to do with the Hunger Games universe. I will try my best to follow the original plot but there's a lot of gaps that need to be filled.

The Pompeiian Horse by GabboDeLaParra

After many years away- fighting countless battles to keep the Roman Empire safe, Prime Centurion Vettius returns to Pompeii, his hometown. During this almost forced vacation, he discovers something he wasn't expecting in the populous sea resort. He debates between accepting it and leaving Pompeii because facing the implications of his discovery is too complicated. Equus the Stallion is a former gladiator living a different life now. He's Pompeii's sweetheart, beloved and adored by almost everyone. Those who don't love him envy him or have even darker motives to wish him ill. Still, he's a celebrity and stays in everyone's mind and heart. When Equus and Vettius discover what they are to each other's past (one spared the life of the other a long time ago), their present becomes conflicted in more than one way, because life is not easy in the Roman Empire, especially when you're at opposite ends of the social scale. Readers beware; this story contains mock battles, emotional battles, and gory battles. It also contains naughty man-on-man foreplay in secluded places and "throw your sandals away" intercourse. All characters portrayed in this book are age 18 or older. For adults only.
