🤍 Love Behind the Shields 🤍
In a small village under the control of the Roman Empire, a strange royal decree is issued requiring every girl to host a Roman soldier in her home. This was no act of hospitality, but rather a harsh method to rehabilitate exhausted warriors before the decisive battle. Yet the wise king anticipated what might happen between hearts, so he imposed strict orders: metal helmets that completely conceal faces, a total ban on speech, and an absolute prohibition against exchanging any personal information.
As days passed, the heavy silence turned into frenzied tension, and the strict rules began to crack under the weight of unprecedented emotions. Three girls found themselves at the eye of this storm, torn between loyalty, love, and adventure, searching for their true selves 🎬💭

Written in the Stars
Gasping, Vittoria's eyes flew up to find herself inches away from her husband's unreadable face. And in the next moment his lips were already on hers, kissing her as if he was staking a claim. A deep sense of irritation flooded her veins. She wouldn't put up with this ownership behavior. Not in her era, and certainly not in this place. Vittoria pushed him aside with all her might, but Maximus pulled back almost instantly. Without thinking twice, she slapped him across the face and froze in fear, now waiting for his possible retaliation. This man was capable of doing everything. She saw him carrying out his duties. To her utter surprise, Maximus seemed to be fazed by her actions, fixing his scrutinizing gaze on hers. He rubbed his left cheek, as though making sure it really happened. And then a throaty laugh escaped him like he was amused. Staring back at him in frustration, Vittoria raised her eyebrows. "That was worth it." His laughter abruptly subsided, and after casting her one final brooding look, he turned on his heel and left the room. *** A work trip to the ruins of what was once one of the most magnificent Roman villas? Yes, it's Vittoria's big opportunity to prove herself as a professional architect despite her young age. And, yet, her journey doesn't go as planned. When something mysterious chills her to the bone, she runs for her life-only to find herself lost in a time long past. Mistaken for someone else, she is forced to marry a stranger. A hardhearted commander of the Roman Imperial Guard called Maximus. Will Vittoria be able to find her way home and reveal the secrets of her destiny? *** I appreciate all your support!
