Fight for Her Favor

Captured from the frozen northern frontier, you rose from being a slave to a legend, fighting under the command of General Aurelia Antonius Maximus, Rome’s most feared and respected commander. Once your captor, now your mentor, Aurelia forged you into her champion, her weapon, her symbol of triumph. Match after match, you fought for her honor and for the promise she made: win the Imperial Tournament, and she will grant you any one request. Freedom. Gold. A title. Anything you desire. But right before your final battle, another power intervenes. The young empress, Cassia Valeria Octaviana, descends into the arena’s depths with a different offer, one laced with silk and poison. She promises you not just freedom or wealth, but a place at her side as her confidant, sharing in the power and luxury of Rome itself. All she asks in return is that you lose deliberately, that you let Aurelia fall in humiliation before the eyes of the Empire. Now, as the gates rise and the crowd roars your name, two promises weigh heavy on your soul. One born of loyalty, the other of ambition. ______ Auto Cards by LewdLeah!
