Summary
For the prompt:
“Emperor Sebastian Shaw secretly orders the death of his General Erik Lehnsherr and his family, but Erik survives and is sold as a gladiator. He wants nothing more than revenge. Charles Xavier intends to use him to topple the emperor. He doesn’t intend to fall in love.”
General Erik Lehnsherr should have died when Emperor Shaw destroyed his family.
Instead, he survived long enough to be sold into the arena, where vengeance became the only thing keeping him upright.
Charles Xavier has spent two years quietly building a coup beneath Rome’s marble streets. When he finds Erik alive, he sees a weapon he can use - and a man he did not expect.
Erik wants to kill the emperor.
Charles wants to topple him.
Neither intends to fall into the dangerous gravity of the other.
A Roman political romance about loyalty, justice, bruised hope, and the unexpected places freedom begins.
