Her victories capture the attention of Emperor Geta, a ruler as cold and calculating as the empire he commands.

As they are forced into proximity, the line between hatred and attraction blurs, and Geta finds himself drawn to the fierce and independent woman he once viewed as nothing more than a weapon. In a world where power and survival are everything, can a gladiator and an emperor find common ground-or will their differences tear them apart?

In the waning glory of ancient Rome, the empire teeters on the edge of chaos as fraternal twin emperors, Geta and Caracalla, vie for control of a fractured realm. Amidst the grandeur of triumphal parades and the whispers of betrayal in marble halls, a trusted general, Acacius, navigates the treacherous politics of power while hiding his disdain for the empire he serves. At the heart of this volatile court stands Lady Claudia Octavia, a noblewoman whose loyalty to Geta defies the dangers surrounding her. As alliances shift and the shadow of Caracalla's madness grows, Claudia and Geta share a bond that offers fleeting solace in a world built on violence and ambition. But in Rome, even love is a liability, and every triumph demands a sacrifice. As the empire hurtles toward betrayal and bloodshed, Claudia and Geta must confront the cost of their choices in a city where loyalty is a dangerous game-and survival is never guaranteed.
