American Television after 5 years of pushing for queer representation: I hope you wanted unnecessary drama, angst with a maybe resolution, and three unfulfilling seasons of questionably written flirtation. And that all comes before anything is half-confirmed with a singular lukewarm kissing scene between two conventionally attractive, white bisexual women!
Thai Television .3 seconds after they figured out queer content is marketable: Did you want something kinky, soft, or stupid? Did you want cat ears? We’ve got cat ears! We’ve got safe/sane/consensual OR off-the-charts bad etiquette BDSM. We’ve got college students out the ass! As long as they’re an engineer or architect, choose your flavor. Do you want an age gap or classmates? Something for adults? Teens? Everyone was childhood besties, how about that??? This is a short order restaurant and I will flip you some gays like they’re hotcakes, just tell me what you want.

See my Masterlist Here
Part Two
The stomach bug you had caught was so strange. You would be perfectly fine, eating whatever you wanted for hours. Then a certain smell would hit you like a ton of bricks, sending you running to the nearest bathroom or trash can.
It had been two weeks and you were still puking your guts up randomly. You made an appointment with your doctor at the end of the week to make sure nothing was seriously wrong with you.
You and the team had to fly out to Colorado for a case. You were so exhausted, you could barely keep your eyes open on the trip there. Penelope texted you for the fiftieth time today checking on you. You insisted you were fine, you just couldn’t get rid of whatever illness you had.
Spencer and Ashley sat across from you, her hands playing with his unruly curls like you used to. When he looked at you, concern written all over his face after you puked in the bathroom, she grabbed his face, pressing a kiss to his lips. That act alone made your stomach turn. Thankfully, Hotch cleared his throat, shooting them a warning glance.
When you finally landed, you were alone with Spencer. Hotch paired you up often because you worked well together. “Are you okay? I’ve been worried about you. You vomited six times yesterday. You’re having trouble holding down anything but crackers and ginger ale. You took a nap on the way here. You’ve never done that.”
“I’m fine, Spencer. Don’t worry about me. You should be worrying about your little girlfriend getting you in trouble for PDA.” He scrunches up his nose. “Are you jealous?” You laugh at that. “No, I’m not. I feel like death, and I don’t want to argue with you. I just don’t want to see you sucking face right in front of me when I’m nauseous anyways. I want to solve this case so I can go home and lay down.” He tried not to bother you with frivolous questions the rest of the day.
The next morning, you felt great. Your skin was glowing, you took time to style your hair and do your makeup. When you walked in the local police station to start work, everyone complimented you. Everyone except for Ashley, who rolled her eyes and seemed annoyed that you didn’t have your hair in a rat’s nest pooled on top of your head with dark circles under your eyes.
You ate all three meals with the team without needing to vomit. You couldn’t believe it was finally over. You decided to call your doctor first thing in the morning to cancel your appointment.
Your joy was short lived, when the next morning you felt awful again. Luckily, you hadn’t called your doctor yet. The day went by quickly. Rossi came up with the information you needed to find the unsub. You slept the whole way home.
You check into the doctor’s office filling out form after form. When the nurse calls you back, she gives you a cup and sends you into the bathroom. You wait in the small room for the doctor. Your heart feels like it’s going to beat out of your chest while you wait for her to come in.
When she finally arrives, she checks your vitals, writing them down on your chart. “How long do I have?” You ask, only kind of joking. She smiles, placing her stethoscope around her neck. “You’re not dying. You’re pregnant! Congratulations! According to the information you gave us, it looks like you’re about six weeks. We will schedule an ultra sound for another time to give you a more accurate prediction.”
You start to tune her out as she continues speaking. Pregnant? How could this happen? You and Spencer were always so careful except… Your mind flashes with memories of that night. How his feverish hands were all over you. How he couldn’t wait to have you so he took you against the wall. How beautiful he thought you looked with his cum dripping out of you. Now those actions had consequences. How were you going to tell him?

Between Us Pt. 2
Summary: You and Spencer had a casual relationship. A misunderstanding ruins it all.
Pairing: Spencer Reid × F. BAU Reader
Warnings: Friends with benefits. Angst.
See My Masterlist Here
Part One
Tonight was the night you were going to confess your feelings to Spencer. You couldn’t keep it to yourself anymore, it was too painful. You were worried you would lose him when you told him, but you thought there was a good chance he felt the same.
You spent all afternoon cooking his favorite foods, planning for a night of cuddling and love making after you got the confession out of the way. When you were finished getting dressed, Spencer knocked on your door.
You invited him in, taking your seats at the table. You ate in silence, your nerves making your stomach hurt. “I have to tell you-“ “We should talk.” You spoke over each other. You smile, giggling with excitement. Spencer wanted to talk too. This is going so well.
“You go first.” You prompt him, smiling wide at him. “These past six months have been so fun. But I think our time together should come to an end.” You try to swallow the lump in your throat, willing yourself not to cry.
“I want to keep it professional at work. We can still be friends, we will just take the sex out of it.” He explains, studying your face. All you can do is nod as he rattles on about how the statistics of such a relationship show that the longer you did it, the harder it would be to end it.
You used to love hearing him spout a million facts about whatever topic he was talking about. But not tonight. “So what did you want to tell me?” He asks, serving himself more food. “Um, I was just going to tell you that book I ordered you came this morning. I thought you would be excited.” You rise from the table, retrieving the thick book from the counter and bringing it to Spencer.
“Thanks.” His smile breaks your heart. You can feel that your attempts to keep the tears at bay are failing. “Why don’t you take the food with you? I’m suddenly not feeling well.” You tell him, as you turn your back to get the lids for the bowls. You hand them to him, turning your back as the tears start to fall. “I’m going to lay down. Lock the door behind you.”
If he thought your sudden illness had anything to do with him, he didn’t act like it. Spencer was right about nothing changing. He was the exact same as he had always been with you, just without the sex.
Spencer was heartbroken. He didn’t want to end his sexual relationship with you. But he couldn’t put himself through the pain anymore. He spent all of his spare time with you. He couldn’t keep you off his mind. Things had changed a few months ago. He had bent the rules he set in place so he wouldn’t fall for you.
You had started spending the night and cuddling. Spencer had fallen fast and hard. But he couldn’t go through every day knowing you didn’t feel the same. So he had to end it, as painful as it was for him. It was no secret that you had been hooking up. But he didn’t want to talk about it with anyone.
Until two weeks after he called it off, he was so upset, he broke down and talked to Derek. He wanted to know all the details, but Spencer only told him the important information. “I have an easy fix for you, pretty boy.” Morgan smirked at him. Spencer leaned in, excited there was a solution.
“You know what they say, if you want to get over someone, get under someone else. You just have to sleep with someone and she will be the last thing you’re thinking of. Works for me every time.” Spencer cleared his throat. “Easy for you to say. I’m lucky she agreed to sleep with me. I’ll never find someone else so quickly, and I’m not sure I would want to.”
“I know someone who has been into you since she started here.” Derek boasts, nodding his head to the blonde at the coffee pot talking to Rossi. “Ashley?” Spencer squeaked, while Derek laughed.
Ashley Seaver was one coworker you could not get used to. She was impulsive, always throwing herself into trouble. You couldn’t stand her. Not only for how she acted on the field, but for how she looked at Spencer. She wanted him, and she didn’t care who knew it. She was all over him from the second she started working at the BAU.
She even knew that you and Spencer were hooking up, but she didn’t care. She used every opportunity to touch him or say something flirty, making eye contact with you the whole time she did it. Luckily, Spencer was oblivious. When you mentioned how she hung all over him, he said he didn’t even notice. He was too busy thinking about the case or the thing you did with your tongue the night before.
So you stopped being jealous. It wasn’t like you had any right to be. You and Spencer were just hooking up. If he wasn’t interested in her, then you would just let it go. The last time she tried anything had been a month ago. You were sick and she invited Spencer to go eat after work.
Spencer being the nice guy he is, accepted her offer. While they were out, he talked about you the whole time. She had told him to stop talking about you, that she was right there and she wanted whatever he was willing to give. He politely turned her down, but she was furious. She kept her distance from both of you since then.
That’s why you were confused when you heard her squealing and giggling, saying Spencer’s name as loudly as she could. You looked up from your mountainous stack of paperwork that you came in early to work on to see Spencer hugging her.
There was a vase of roses on her desk. “I can’t believe you got these for me! What a surprise! I knew you would come around!” She almost yelled, looking directly at you. Spencer took her hand in his, “I wanted to get you something before our date tonight, but I wasn’t sure I would have time to get them after work.” He explained shyly looking at her.
That little shit! Was he actually blushing? Was he seriously going on a date with Ashley tonight? And what is with the roses? He never once got you flowers. Did he call things off with you to date her? Seeing them together made you feel sick. Actually, the temperature felt like it rose a hundred degrees. You needed to get up now. You ran to the bathroom making it just in time to throw up.

Between Us
Tumblr media
Pairing: Macrinus (Gladiator II) x Cassia (Plus Size Black Fem OC)
Warnings: SMUT, 18+ (MINORS, SCROLL AWAY), buildup (if you got the attention span of a squirrel, DONT READ), oral sex (f receiving, m receiving), titty sucking/fondling, worshipping, some bisexuality (kissing and handjob from m), choking, some masdom, some edging, dirty talk, praise kink, creampie, age gap, slight voyeurism, cussing, aftercare, drinking, some angst, pregnancy, mentions of violence, slavery, and death, and Non-Canon/Canon (Spoilers if you haven’t seen it).
Summary: After watching the intense fight between Hanno and General Acacius, Cassia is assigned as a reward to Macrinus, in which he takes her away to spend some private time with her.
A/N: Wanted to write because I saw this and Denzel was not only evil as hell, but fine doing it. That’s a generational talent right there. Also, I do apologize if some of this is historically inaccurate or the language is nowhere close to it. I love social studies, but I know my knowledge of Roman History is quite rusty.

Citizens in the Colosseum are going crazy, watching Hanno and General Acacius fight after the latter and his wife, Lucilla, attempted to overthrow emperors Greta and Caracalla to restore an oligarchy republic.
The crowd gets rowdy as the guards, arms with bow and arrows, are making sure they don’t riot during this.
Watching the fight from crowd is Cassia, an arm scarred, tall, voluptuous woman, sitting with her fellow sisters as their owner, Dominus, stands behind them with a stoneface expression.
“Kill him!” said Aelia, one of the girls, with the audience joining in on the cheering.
“All that yelling, yet you can’t seem to bring me more clients.” mumbled Dominus, making her look at him.
“Tell them to be gentle then. Especially to the newbie because they seem to like attempting murder on her.” she said, pointing at Cassia.
“She’s just disobedient. She’ll get there one day.” he said, gently touching her shoulder, making her shudder.
“That will be a cold day in hell.” said Cassia.
“I didn’t waste all that money on you just so you can refuse to do what you got paid to do.”
“It’s not like I had a choice.”
“And guess what? You’re my biggest attraction since I bought you, so you need to give in!”
“Nobody wants to please a bunch of rough, two minute silencers every night!” she replied, going back to watching the fight.
Suddenly, she feels her hair being yanked back, forcing her to look at Dominus’ face, a dark glare expressed over his face.
“You’re lucky we’re in public, but after we leave, you’re on punishment for the night. You get no dinner, just straight to be—“
Suddenly, a metal object strikes him across the face, making him let her hair go. As he looks to see who threw that, two guards stand next to him, holding their spears at him, close enough to stab him.
“What the hell..”
“He said to quit messing with his reward or else.” said the tall one.
“Or what?” he replied, preparing to strike.
“Wanna find out right now?”
Dominus doesn’t say nothing, just puffs out really hard. The guards puts their spears down and walks away, not saying another word to him.
“What do they mean reward?” she asks, looking at him.
“If Hanno wins, you’re someone’s reward for the night. If not…..you’re on punishment.” he replied, getting in her ear.
He goes back to his position, watching the fight with Cassia doing the same, with a bit of fear in her eyes. Who’s the stranger? I’m now a reward? I hope he isn’t like the clients I’ve dealt were racing in her mind as Hanno slices Acacius, making everyone gasp.
“COME ON, ACACIUS! FIGHT BACK!” yelled Aelia, stopping her feet to give him adrenaline.
Cassia giggled, impressed that Aelia finds this very entertaining as she doesn’t get it herself. Sure, the idea of being free sounds understandable, but you have to kill other gladiators? That’s the questionable part.
“Seen that gentleman looking at you over there?” asked Diana, another girl, as she pointed at him.
Following her direction, she looks into the boxes and sees an older, bearded black gentleman covered in gold jewelry, a white dress, and a gold tunic looking at her, intrigued by her beauty. He sends a wink at her, making her blush and look away as the sounds of swords clanging gets louder.
“You know him?”
“Kind of. I know he’s close with Hanno since he trains him and the other gladiators.”
“Ahh. So he’s their owner.”
“Yeah. Very brutal too.”
“Not surprising. They make him money, they better give the crowd a good show.”
“Mmhm. But really…..”
She pulls her close, making sure no one else is listening to their conversation before leaning towards her ear.
“They’re saying he wants to be the next emperor of Rome. He wants Geta and Caracalla out and will do anything to make it happen.” she whispered, surprising Cassia.
“Him? To run Rome? That sounds like a dream anyone wants.”
“And he’s determine to make it happen. And if he succeeds by being selected for the senate, he wants a wife that can grant him a heir so the tradition can live on.”
“How did you find all of this out?”
“Two clients me and Meena were pleasuring at once were discussing it openly. I guess they weren’t expecting whores to understand what they were talking about, but I would be cautious if I was them. He’ll get mad if someone leaks his plans.”
Cassia nodded, turning to resume watching the fight. After a few more swings, Hanno wins, making everyone cheer and boo. However, he tosses his sword and kneels in from of him, refusing to kill him.
“He’s not gonna kill him?” asked Cassia, looking at both men on the ground.
“I guess he’s standing in solidarity with the people.” said Diana, shrugging her shoulders.
Greta and Carcalla, irritated with what Hanno did, orders the guards to execute Acacius by shooting him with their arrows, which they complied, instantly killing him.
Members of the crowd begins to attack some of the guards, staring a deadly riot. To avoid being harmed, the women and Dominus depart from their seats, heading downstairs quickly as the emperors do the same, with Macrinus looking at Cassia one more time before she walks outs.
As they reach the bottom of the Colosseum, Dominus turns towards the women, irritation plastered across his face at the chaos going on in the streets.
“I want all of you to head home safely. Diana and Aelia are in charge of you. Don’t try nothing funny because I won’t hesitate to find you if you’re out here, protesting and rioting.” he uttered, giving each one a stern look.
The woman began to line up as a group, but he stops Cassia from joining them.
“Except you, Cassia. Your winner is waiting for us over here.” he said before walking towards where the gladiators were stationed at.
Cassia bids farewell to her sisters before following him, getting right in front as he directs which way to go.
🜲 🜲 🜲 🜲 🜲 🜲 🜲 🜲 🜲 🜲 🜲 🜲 🜲 🜲 🜲 🜲 🜲 🜲 🜲 🜲 🜲 🜲 🜲 🜲
Dominus walks behind her as they past a lot of gladiators eating in the dining room.
Each are taken aback by her beauty and figure, with some whistling, some flirting, and some attempts of touching were made, but Dominus’ hollow stare scares them away.
“….do you just love to wait to inform us when you put us as rewards or this is just business for you?”
“Business.” he replied, making her roll her eyes.
As they got to where Hanno was, Macrinus, whose talking to him, turns around, dismissing him. Seeing the both of them, he greets them with a gleeful smile, walking up to them.
“Dominus! Good to see you, my boy! I see you got my reward already intact.” he says, shaking Dominus’ hand.
“Yeah. When she’s behaving right.” he replied, looking at her.
“Fuck you.” she mumbled.
“Excuse you?”
“You heard me. You got those big ass ears for a reason.”
“And who is this beauty?”
“Macrinus, this is Cassia. She’s your reward from today’s victory.” he said, shoving her to the ground.
Macrinus looks at her, very shocked that Dominus tossed her like she wasn’t valuable before sending him a menacing look.
“She’ll accompany you to the celebration and will do anything you request. Just you might have to push her.” he continued.
“And why is that?”
“She’s a disobedient girl. Scaring off clients, cheating me out of money.”
“That’s not true!” she said, irritation in her voice.
Dominus gets in her space, giving her a stern look, which makes her bow her head down.
“Who are you talking to?” he asks, grabbing her face to force her to look at him. “Hm? Who are you raising your voice at?”
“That’s enough, Dominus.” said Macrinus, getting between them. “I don’t need you showing your ass in front of guests now.”
“She was being disrespectful. Someone needs to put her in her place—“
“I don’t give a damn what she did. I won the bet, she’s my reward, and she’ll be with me all night while they’re destroying shit. So, what else can I help you with?” he asks, helping her up.
“I’m just putting her—“
“WHAT else can I help you with? I’m not gonna ask you again and you know how I get if I don’t get an answer.”
Dominus looks at her one more time, before clearing his throat and handing him his bag of jewelry. Macrinus takes it, still keeping his eyes on him.
“I’ll be back at prima noctis hora for her. Make sure she doesn’t harm you, my lord. Ave.” he replied, nodding his head and leaving.
Macrinus watches him leave before turning to Cassia, hopefulness blooming in her eyes. He looks her up and down, taking in a better view of a goddess.
“Cassia, huh?” he asked, taking her hand.
“Yes, sir. I mean, my lord.” she nodded, anxiety growing within her.
“Oh, call me Macrinus. You don’t have to say the title shit while you’re with me.” he says, placing a kiss on her hands.
She blushes, feeling the heat building inside her as she feels the coolness of his rings rub against her hand.
“You sure you don’t mind another name?”
“Only if I want you to call me that.” he smiles, hooking his arm around hers as they began walking.
They headed towards the cells to see Hanno before they depart. As they walk through, he notices the attraction she’s getting, which makes him pulls her closer to him.
“You have a beautiful name, you know?” he asks.
“Now what’s beautiful about having a name meaning metal helmet?”
He chuckles, gently rubbing her arm as they turn into a tunnel.
“While it does mean that here, its means cinnamon in other places. It’s a spice, but also symbolizes warmth, harmony, and abundance. You were meant to be here.”
“So eventually, I could become the wife of a future general or Emperor.” she says happily.
“……I think the last one would suit you really well.” he says, giving her a smirk.
She smiles back as they arrive to Hanno’s cell, where Macrinus tells her to wait here as he talks to him. He enters, with the gate closing behind him.
As she waits, she overhears his plans of taking over Rome, saying their dynasty is no longer needed to run it, revealing that Hanno is the missing son of Lucilla, Lucius.
“And does your new whore agree with what you’re planning to do?” Hanno asks him, making her look through the gate.
“….she probably won’t mind because not only will she be better than Lucilla, she’s bare a heir that will run this place better than your people did.” Macrinus replied, getting up to leave.
“You won’t make it far.”
“Oh trust me. I will prevail with ending your dynasty.” he said confidently, walking out of the cell.
Macrinus looks at Cassia, who stands in front of him very bothered by what Lucius said about her. He brushes her hair out of her face before making out with her passionately, gripping her ass. She moans at the touch, kissing him back. He breaks the kiss, smiling as they both look at Lucius.
“Come on, Cassia. We have a celebration to attend.” he said, walking away and pull her with him.
She looks at Lucius one more time, who meets her eyes from his cell, before turning forward.
🜲 🜲 🜲 🜲 🜲 🜲 🜲 🜲 🜲 🜲 🜲 🜲 🜲 🜲 🜲 🜲 🜲 🜲 🜲 🜲 🜲 🜲 🜲 🜲
As they walk through the crowd of people, Macrinus and Cassia converse closely, looking at the celebration of Hanno’s win around them and the rioting of General Acacius’s death, clashing with the guards.
Drinking, eating, dancing, loud conversations, music, sales of imported goods, clothes, gold, fire pits, fighting, yelling, and more are seen in the busy streets of Rome.
“Besides being the trainer of the gladiators and dressing well, what else do you do?” asked Cassia, looking at him.
“I provide them food and oil to them and the arm. Something the emperors should be doing instead of replicating everything wrong Commodus did.” he replied, smiling at her.
“Sounds like you want them out as soon as possible.”
“….depends on who you’re asking.”
“Whether it’s true or not….I’m behind it.” she said, whispering the last part in his ear.
“Hm.” he replied, looking at her eyes as he rubbed her hand.
The two continued walking into a secluded area, where they come across a table filled with many varieties of food. from fruits to cheese to meats and different types of bread.
Macrinus sends a nod at a guard before grabbing two plates and pilling his with grapes, meats, some cheese, and bread before looking at Cassio, who waiting patiently.
“You’re not hungry?” he asked.
“Oh no.” she shakes her head. “I don’t really eat or drink. Well, I don’t get fed.”
“Why not?” he asked, grabbing a white wine bottle and pouring it into two glasses.
“Um…” she swallows. “It’s punishment for not satisfying a customer. While Dominus and the girls who completed their tasks get full meals, the girls who didn’t get either the crumbs or nothing. Which is usually me.” she replied, slightly embarrassed with revealing that.
Macrinus laughs, shaking his head as he plates her food with everything, even adding extras.
“Well, around here, you’re not gonna starve. And I’ll make sure to remind him of that since you’re doing all the work that fills his pockets. Got it?”
She nods, smiling a bit as he grabbed the plates, gesturing her to grabs the drinks & bottle as he walked towards a table, with her obliging. Just as she was about to sit, he helps her by pulling out her seat, gently pushing her in before sitting across from her.
“Anything on your plate you wanna try first?” he asked her, watching her scan the plate.
“….what’s your recommendation?”
He smiled, picking up a piece of bread and putting prosciutto and smearing some brie on it. He adds a bit of cranberry on it before handing it to her.
“Tastes pretty good together.” he replied, watching her retrieve it.
She examines the bread before taking a bite, chewing for a few seconds. She takes a few more bites before eating the whole thing, earning a chuckle from Macrinus.
“Was I lying?” he asked playfully.
“No, sir.” she shakes her head. “The sweetness from the cranberry, the flakiness of the bread, and the creamy, nutty flavor of the Brie combines very well together. How does one acquire that taste?” she asks, beginning to eat a little more of the bread.
“That’s my side job when I’m not pushing these men to be the best version of themselves. You give me what I want, I’ll give you what you want, but better.” he replied, sipping some of his wine.
“Were you selected to take the job? Or did you have to fight like one of them to get that and freedom?”
“The first one. I worked very hard to get where I am at today than where I was in my slave days. And it’s not an easy journey.”
“You were a slave?”
“Yeah. When Aurelius was ruling, but this was way before Lucilla, Maximus, and Commodus were born. I can remember the harsh treatments…..the way him and guards demean us…..his greed before his change of heart shit took over him. Almost like he was repenting.” he said harshly, growing angry thinking of it.
“And that’s why you wanna kill Greta and Caracalla.” she said quietly, taking a sip of her wine.
He leans forward, looking at her for a few more moments before pulling him robe back, revealing a branded scar that represents the symbol Aurelius has on his statute.
“Those two are just in the way. And the senate knows it. Hell, so did the general and Lucilla. But my vision of Rome is not similar to theirs. Mines is vengeance for what they did to me and my people.” he replied through gritted teeth.
Cassia traces the scar, softening Macrinus’ demeanor a bit. She looks at him, getting closer to place a kiss on his cheek, making him smile a bit.
“Do what you have to do. They’re making us suffer anyway if they continue to rule.” she said before resuming eating her plate.
He looks at her, scanning all over her body while she eats. The way her mouth moves, her looking around the area they’re in, taking a few sips of wine, and moving onto the next thing.
His eyes fixates on two long-straight scars that starts from the top of her shoulder and ends before it gets to her hands.
“What happened to your arms?” he asks, gently tracing over them.
Her smile drops slightly as she moves them around, the painful memories swirling in her head.
“This is from when I was fighting off a client the first night I was sold to Dominus.” she replied in a hesitant tone.
“Tried to force himself on you?”
“Yeah. Got mad that I wouldn’t give it up easily, so he took a small knife and tried to cut my dress off. Fought back hard and got sliced in the process.”
“And what did he do?”
“Gave him a warning.” she said, shrugging. “The client never came back.”
“So…he got away with harming you….” he said in an irritated tone.
She nodded, looking down. Macrinus’ jaw twitches, hiding his growing flame that is begging to come out and tell him to hunt Dominus down for letting that slide. He relaxes, not wanting to waste their time together.
“Are you pure?” he asks, breaking the silence.
“Oh, no sir.” she looked, laughing a bit. “My husband was my first. And only.”
“…….where’s he’s at?”
“Probably rotting on the battlefield. He died while fighting in it.”
“And they just took you?” he asked with a puzzled look.
“Well. Greta and Caracalla ordered our family to be killed. Accusing them of attempted a coup against them when that wasn’t even true. We didn’t even know he died a few months back until that day…”
“Oh wow.” Macrinus replied, surprised about that information.
“They sent standby to kill everyone, including me. Our parents, his siblings, and his nephew. I managed to escape and hid for a few days until I was caught trying to sneak into a ship to Numidia.” she said as she sipped more of her wine.
“I was chained to a pole with other women in some town and sold to Dominus the next day. Been here ever since and….I guess this is how I’m gonna spend the rest of my life.” she said in a somber tone.
“….how old are you, if you don’t mind me asking?” he asked.
“28. I may be the recent one he acquired, but I’m also the oldest of the girls he has.”
Macrinus nodded, rubbing his hands against hers. He pulls them to his lips, placing kisses all over them while keeping eye contact with her.
“Cassia….it would be a pleasure to heal your pain with taking both of them out and Dominus. And then, I want you as my wife.”
“Damn, I got you whipped already?” she asked, chuckling a bit.
“A woman like you should be living established and relaxed. Especially a woman who can provide me something I want.” he said, kissing over her scar, making her wince a little.
“And what is that?” she asked, her breathing growing a bit loud as he goes a bit higher.
“A heir. A boy or a girl that can continue my beliefs when my time comes to an end.” he whispered, tugging her to come in his lap.
She obliged, carefully sitting where she is across him, wrapping her arm around him neck, gently pushing her breasts into his face. He grins, gently kissing them.
“I can see it.” Peck. “You sitting on the throne.” Peck. “Ass getting thicker.” Peck. “Glowing and our baby growing.” Peck.
He smells her chest, letting out a moan before gently taking one out and massaging it, making her whimper and grip his chest a bit. The coolness of his rings rubbing against her skin arouses her even more.
“These here? Growing bigger, spilling out your top, perfect pillows to lay on? Oh, you’re perfect for me.” he whispered, tracing her nipple with his tongue before sucking on the breast, making her moan.
Cassia begins grinding in his lap, feeling his length growing a bit as he kept sucking, looking at her with hunger in his eyes. He pulls her closer, burying the rest of his in her chest as she throws her head back, mumbling Fuck at the sensation.
A loud thud is heard, making the both of them snap to where it was making the noise. Behind the gates, a group of rioters and guards are clashing, with the guards getting the upper hand.
“Goddamn those rioters!” he mumbled before resuming making out with Cassia’s beats.
Two black men, a young adult and middle aged, walk into the room, heading towards them. Macrinus gently pulls her top up and ushers her off his lap as he gets up, fixing himself.
“Well, well, well. Isn’t it my two favorite boys?” he said enthusiastically, opening his arms up.
The men each hug him, with the young one giving him a passionate kiss. Cassia quietly sits in her seat, continuing to eat and not engage with what she witnessed.
“Alright, alright. Not in front of my future spouse now.” Macrinus said, gently grabbing his ass before pushing him back.
“Oh, we didn’t know we were interrupting something.” the middle aged one said, looking at Cassia.
“She is a beauty, not going to lie.” said the young one, walking over to look at her a little close.
“Don’t scare her, Felix.” said Macrinus, sitting back down in his seat.
“I’m not! I’m just…..taken aback that you pulled her in comparison to you.” he said, with Cassia looking at him.
Macrinus slaps his ass, making him yelp and the middle age one laugh as he sat next to him and Cassia smile a bit.
“Oh, where are my manners? Cassia, this is Felix. And Zeno.” he said, pointing at each one.
“Your boytoys?” she asked, eyeing the both of them.
“On some occasions. Zeno helps me with moving the gladiators from arena to arena as Felix….well, relieves my tension if need to.” he replied, rubbing Zeno’s chest.
“He’s a little stiff.” said Felix, sitting next to her.
“And you making stiffer with your arches.” said Zeno, earning a scoff from him.
“It helps me build myself up. A lot of us have an itch that needs some more attention. You would know, right, Cassia?” he asked, looking her up and down.
“What I’m getting is you get tossed between them a lot.” she replied, earning a smile from all three of them.
“I wanted that arrangement. Thought it would work best to feed both of their needs instead of me and Zeno trading.”
“Would that mess it up with me in the equation now?” she asked slyly.
“Depends on how long you make him last.” said Zeno.
“That won’t be hard. I last a good time!” said Macrinus.
“I don’t know…” said Felix, getting up to walk behind her. “She might be tough to last against.”
He traces her arms before wrapping his hand around the back of her neck, pushing her forward, making her lay across the table. She tries to get up, but he keeps his hold on her.
“Watch it, Felix.” Macrinus said with a stone face glare.
“Don’t worry, baby. I’m just looking.” he replied, rubbing his hands over her curves.
He pulls her back up, examining her features before sitting back down in his seat. He picks up a grape from her plate and brings it to her mouth, waiting for her to eat it. She looks at Macrinus, who’s watching with a vex in his eyes as Zeno’s hand is moving perpendicularly in his lap.
Is he getting hard from watching this?, she said in her mind as she goes back to Felix, who is still waiting for her.
She engulfs the grape into her mouth, slightly sucking his fingers while keeping her eyes on him, making him grunt a bit. She makes a Pop! sound before locking eyes with Macrinus again, who gently removes Zeno’s hand.
“What do you two want? You’re taking up too much of my time with her.” he said, adjusting himself in his seat.
“Lucilla wants to speak to you before her execution goes forward.” said Zeno.
“And the senate wants to know how are the traitors being sentenced as soon as possible.” said Felix.
“They’ll have their answer, and my presence, by nighttime tomorrow. I’ll figure out what I’m gonna do with Lucius later on. Might keep him alive until my heir arrives.” said Macrinus, eying Cassia.
“And Rome will prevail from there.” said Felix, kissing her hand before getting up to leave.
Zeno nods at both before getting and leaving, with Felix following behind. Macrinus gets up, exposing his twitching semi-hard length at her, which makes her gasp.
“What’s wrong….” he asked before looking down and seeing it. “Oh. We’re not there yet.” he chuckled before tucking it away.
“There’s more?” she asked, sending him a smirk.
“Yeah. I tend to work with it a lot.” he replied.
“We’ll see about that.”
“….don’t tempt me.”
A group of moans are heard, making the both of them look around to see where it’s coming from. In the corner of the area, two citizens, a man and a woman, are having sex.
The woman, with her breast exposed and skirt pushed up, is pressed against the gate as the man plunges behind her, constantly slamming into her as their moans and body smacking fills the room in mixture of the chaos outside the gates.
“Guess they wanted an audience in midst of the fighting.” she said, watching the pleasure grow between them.
Macrinus replied with ‘mhm’ before moving closer, kissing her neck before kissing her, rubbing her sides. She kisses back, fighting for more while gently stroking him through his dress, hearing his breathing become erratic.
He breaks the kiss, catching his breath as he rubbed his head against her, who is patiently waiting for his next order.
“Let’s go somewhere private, shall we?” he said, standing back and holding his hand out.
She nods as she takes his hand and getting up. Grabbing the wine bottle as well, he pulls her into a secret hallway and up the stairs.
🜲 🜲 🜲 🜲 🜲 🜲 🜲 🜲 🜲 🜲 🜲 🜲 🜲 🜲 🜲 🜲 🜲 🜲 🜲 🜲 🜲 🜲 🜲 🜲
He opens the door, letting her walk in. He orders the guards to stand in front of the door, telling them to knock if Dominus or someone else comes looking for him before walking in, closing the door.
Cassia looks around the room, taking in the gorgeous marble floor, black pillars, chairs, and windows with gold accent accessories accompany it.
Walking towards the center, where the pit of fire stands, she looks at the two throne of chairs front and center, admiring its details.
“Wanna sit up there?” he asked, pouring wine into their glasses.
“How often you ask that?” she replied, looking at him.
He chuckles, walking towards her and handing her the glass, in which she takes.
“You’re a very funny woman, you know. But you are the first one to be in here after hours.” he said, wrapping his hand around hers and pulling her towards the chairs.
“Felix and Zeno won’t be jealous?”
“They’ll be fine.”
Cassia and Macrinus get to the ledge before he places her in the center. He backs up, taking in her beauty as she poses, making him smile before taking a sip of his wine.
“You fit perfectly on the throne, my love. The moonlight enhances your diamond essence into this city. Which is why I chose you to be mine.” he said, placing the wine bottle near the chair.
“And do I get anything in return? Besides bringing in a future and marriage?” she asked, drinking some of her wine.
“Your girls can come live here instead of suffering in the streets when I take my position as emperor. Finest access to jewelry they wouldn’t let you touch, fresh food, water, new items, your own housekeepers, and of course….”
He walks up, with her eyes following him, standing in front as he traces her chin, licking his lips.
“Me. Only me.” he added, tracing over her neck.
He feels her breathing stagger a bit as he goes down further and further until he feels a necklace, pulling it up to examine.
“What’s this?” he asked, looking at the garnet pendant.
“It’s a way for him to spot which girls belong to him whenever we go out in public. We each have different stones that represents us.” she replied.
He nodded, tracing his thumb over the pendant. Suddenly, he rips the necklace off, making her gasp. He throws it in the pit, watching it burn quickly.
“Cheap metal and a fake stone. Guess that’s how he sees you girls.” he said, sitting in one of the chairs.
“He’s not gonna like that.” she mumbled.
“I don’t give a fuck what he likes or doesn’t like. You’re not his property anymore. You belong here now. To me.” he said authoritatively.
“What if he refuses to allow that?”
“He’ll back off. Or else, I’ll make him. Permanently.”
“…..you swear?” she asks, looking at him.
“…..on my soul. I’ll take care of him. But right now.” he said, leaning forward.
He grabs her top and pulls it down, exposing her breasts before pulling her into his lap to straddle him, both locking eyes with each other.
“We were in the middle of something.” he mumbled before kissing her passionately, caressing her back.
Cassia moaned at the coldness and scratchiness of his beard rubbing against her face and chest while kissing as her mound gently rubs against his clothed length, feeling him move her hips to apply more friction.
Macrinus breaks the kiss, tracing his tongue over each breast before engulfing one into his mouth like earlier and sucking whine squeezing the other one and rubbing the nipple between his ring wearing fingers, making her wince loudly.
“Fuck, that feels good.” she whispers in an intoxicated tone, earning a grunt from him.
He released her breast from his mouth, rubbing his face against it before trading places: other one is now being sucked on as he rubs the previous one.
“You’re so good at that, you know?” she whispered, feeling him grab her ass before letting go.
He lets out a Pop! sound as he lets go, rubbing his face between both saliva coated jugglers as he looks up in awe, in a daze with her face..
“I can feel you getting wet and I’m only just making out with these beautiful jewels. They never made this far, huh?” he asked, gently rubbing her hips.
“Never. They don’t like building it up, just immediately going after the gold.” she replied, which he nods.
“You have a lot to experience then. Go sit in that chair and remove the rest of your dress for me.” he said, removing her from his lap.
Cassia pulls the rest of her dress down, leaving her in a gold waist chain that is connected to her underwear. She sits in the chair, waiting for his next move as he watches, taking in her curves and plumpness from her thighs, hips, and shoulders.
He gets up, removing his dress and tunic, leaving him with nothing but his jewelry gleaming against his skin as his now full grown and girthy length moves up and down.
He was lying about his size at all, she said in her mind as he got closer and kneeled down, rubbing her face before kissing her, tracing her thighs in process.
She smiled before kissing him back, wrapping her arms around his neck and tracing over his back. She breaks it, catching her breath as he watches her, lust fully consuming him.
“What do you want to do first?” he asked.
“Shouldn’t you be calling the shots?” she replied, tracing over his chin.
“Usually I do. Since I’m the second man crossing over this beauty of land….” as he traces his fingers over her waist chain.
“I think I want to make you comfortable on our first night. What do you say?” he replied.
She nods, earning a peck on her nose as she leans back and opens her legs. He smirked, beginning to place a trail of kisses on her inner thighs, moving closer and closer to her heat before pausing.
“You might have to help me remove these cause I don’t know how, what the hell…” he mumbled, tugging at the underwear, which makes her giggle.
“Here.” she said, bring his hand to one of the clasps and pressing it together, unclamping the underwear.
He nodded, continuing to remove the rest before pulling her underwear off, revealing her glistening essence to him. He stares with hunger, gently placing one leg on his shoulder as he quickly removes his rings.
“Wait.” she said, making him stop in process.
“Something wrong, Cassia?” he asked, a worrying expression on his face.
“No, no, everything is fine. Can you just….leave your pointer & thumb rings on? I like the coolness they give when you touching all over me.” she said, licking her lips at him.
He smirks, removing everything but those four. He leans forward, taking in her luscious core before tracing her slit with his pointer, making her moan a bit.
“All this for me? Oh, you were dying for me to touch you.” he whispers, placing a few kisses around it.
Pulling her a little more to the edge, he pushes her other leg towards her as he licks her slit, making her flinch. He smirks before repeating the motion in a form of making out, making her whimper.
“God, you got a perfect sets of lips.” he mumbled, circling her lips as the mixture of her wetness and his salvia coat his finger.
“Haven’t tasted you for a few moments and you’re getting wetter. You want me to continue, huh?” he asks, looking up at her, who eyes are closed and head is thrown back.
“Please….I miss the feeling of someone making me feel good.” she replied, rubbing her lips on his finger gently.
He didn’t reply, just went back to eating her out, but this time, slurping on her opening as his thumb rubs her clit, making her moan loud. She places her hands on his head, pushing his face further in, feeling his grip on her other leg tightening.
“Sorry. I tend to get a little carried away.” she said, feeling him laugh before a gasp from her comes out.
Macrinus, feeling even more driven, inserts a finger inside, feeling her tightness engulfing him. He curves it, watching her move erratically and whimper loudly.
“Oh, you’re just collapsing under my control.” he said, licking her clit.
“Yes…yes.” is all she could get out as he enters a second finger and begins to plunge them in and out, making her moan even louder.
“That’s right….open a little more for me so he can fit…” he whispers, watching his fingers go in and out as her essence spills down his arm and the chair.
“Fuck….please put your mouth back on her. I feel myself getting close!” she exclaims, tightening around his fingers.
“Whatever you want, baby.” he replied before placing his mouth on her clit, flicking it back and forth as he sped up the pace.
Sounds of her pussy being slapped, her grunts, and his flicking fills the room as the riots continue down below them.
He removes his mouth, looking at her opening as he finger fucks very harshly until her release washes over her. Her moans turning into screams, her body twitching all over, and her essence making a huge mess by squirting all over, making him stare in amazement at his work.
“Fuck, you look good like this.” he mumbled, kissing all over her stomach to her chest to her lips, as she laughs weakly.
“My turn now.” she replied, sitting up straight as Macrinus stands up, stroking himself.
“You don’t have to do this if you don’t want to, you know?” he said, looking at her.
“You think I wanna jump into our session without tasting this first?” she said, wrapping her hand around his length and stroking it.
He holds his hands up in defeat, giving her a wink as she looks at it, mesmerized by its size and girth. All that shit commanding shit he does matches him well.
She traces the tip with her tongue before engulfing all of it into her mouth, hearing him let out an exhale as his fingers run through her hair. She removes herself, catching her breath while stroking the length, giggling to herself.
“You were not lying about you being a lot.” she said, locking eyes with him.
“You handling it like a god..” he replied before reinserting it back into her mouth.
She continues sucking, gently massaging his balls, hearing him wince. He starts picking up his pace, gently hitting the back of her throat. Looking up at him, she bops her head faster, feeling his tip hitting it much rougher.
“Them assholes missed out on this skillful work of yours.” he says, letting out moans.
Then, he grabs her head and begins going at a brisk place, constantly burying her face into his groin as he lets out a few expletives that she couldn’t make out with the fuzzy noise in her ears.
“You like that shit? Old man like me using your throat like you owe me something?!” he asks in a gritty tone, not letting up.
She moans around his length, feeling her chin and chest being coated in the excessive salvia that’s spilling out from his movement, her eyes stinging a bit.
Suddenly, he pulls out of her mouth, making her lean back against the chair. She breathes harshly, recovering from that euphoric moment that happened. He smiles at her dazed posture, looking from her face to her pussy, which is now even more wet.
“Come here..” he whispers, helping her up before sitting in his chair, pulling her along.
He taps her to get on top, in which she obliges. She rub her opening on his tip before lowering herself carefully, wincing as she feels herself being stretched more and more with each inch.
“Macrinus, I don’t think I can take more of you….” she whines.
“Relax. You just have to let the pain pass before I start moving. You’ll feel good real soon.” he replied, moving her hips with his hands.
She moans quietly, wrapping her arms around him tightly as the sensation passes through. He kisses her breasts, sucking on one as he begins bouncing her up and down, plunging into her with each stroke.
“Oh my god….” she whispers in a pathetic tone, feeling his tip poke at a sweet spot.
He smiles, releasing himself from her breast as he speeds up his pace, making her moans come out very pitchy.
“That’s it…..take all of me like that.” he mumbled, slapping her ass few times as she begins riding him, removing his hands and letting her do the rest of the work.
Cassia lets out a few sexual sounds, feeling herself becoming attached to him every time she grinds against the friction and poking he’s giving her. He picks up the bottle of white wine and pours all over her breasts, licking and sucking up the liquid as she moves harder and faster, making him let out a few grunts.
“You’re gonna make me cum again!” she yelps, tightening around him.
Just as she was close to release, he lifts her up, feeling his length thumping very hard as she catches her breath, looking down at her walls clenching. He laughs hoarsely before giving her some sloppy kisses over all, sitting her back in his lap.
“You almost brought me with you and I don’t want that to happen because our night will end super fast.” he mumbled, wiping her sweaty face.
She smiles weakly, nodding her head as she grinds his aching length, earning a few more slaps on her ass.
“I’m not playing, girl.” he said in a dark tone, wrapping his hand around her neck and squeezing it, making her slightly gasp.
“Sorry, sir.” she replied in a pitchy tone, seeing him smile in an evil way.
“It’s okay. Just don’t do that again.” as he pecks on her nose.
“Now go bend that ass over in that chair.” he said, letting her go.
Cassia hurriedly crawls over to the chair, putting her chest on the seat and arching her back so her ass in air, patiently waiting for him to re-enter.
Macrinus examines her body, all sweaty from her movement
“When Rome falls and rises, you’ll be the one standing while everyone is kneeling….” he mumbled, tracing over her cheeks.
“That would be nice, huh? You, me, and our heir being worshipped by these people? Hm?“ he asked, slapping her ass, hearing her whine desperately.
“Yes.” she mumbled, but that earns her another slap.
“I can’t hear you!” he said, smoothing out the stinging.
“Yes, Macrinus!” she yells, slightly moving her hips around.
He gives her a few more slaps, hearing her let out a few cries. He leans forward, pushing her hair out of her face as he gets closer to her ear.
“Please…..” she begged, about to touch herself before he stopped her, locking her arms behind her back.
“Call me by the correct title and I’ll give you what you want.” he whispers into her ear before backing away.
“….yes, Emperor. Please pleasure me again…” she said, breathing harshly.
She waits for his next move, anticipating another slap. Then, he re-inserts himself from behind and begins pounding her, making her moan loudly. His low grunts as he slams aggressively into her fills the room, with him pulling her hair while holding her arms.
“Look at you….” he chuckles seductively. “Taking old man dick from me and enjoying it. That dead husband of yours wasn’t doing you like this, was he?”
“No….no, he wasn’t.” she confessed, feeling him let go of her hair and pull out, just to slam back in her.
Macrinus watches her twitch and make sounds that are so incoherent, it made him pushed deeper into her. He lays on her back, adding his weight on top as he wraps his hand around the front of her neck and pulls her up to his chest a bit, kissing her ear.
“Alright. That’s what I wanted to hear. But now? I want you to cum. Releasing everything all over me and don’t hold back. Got it?” he mumbled, rolling his hips.
“Yes…..yes….yes!” she responded as her release washes over, making her yell and squirt all over him as he continued to fuck her through it, pulling out and watching her collapse to the side, convulsing.
He sits nearby, gently turning her onto her back. He leans over, kissing her chest as she moans quietly, rubbing his face. He gets between her legs and rubs his length between her folds, watching her grab her legs and hold them back, making him chuckle.
“Already know what to do without me telling you. I like that.” he said before inserting inside, hearing her curse.
He wraps his hands around her neck and begins fucking her, going a pace where he is continuously hitting that sweet spot inside her. It doesn’t help that his pressure from squeezing adds onto the copulating tension in the air.
“You ready to be my bride and raise my heir?” he asked, speeding up a bit.
“Me breeding you like this and pushing my babies out? Having them running around Rome and shit?” he continued, not letting up.
“Yes, Emperor…..I’m yours and this body is yours.” she replied, feeling another release building up.
He kisses her sloppily, locking his arms around her as he continue his brutal pace, making her whine and scream as her essence splashes all around. He looks down, watching her grip around him.
“I’m cumming…ugh….fuck!” he yells as he finally releases inside, his load pumping out hasty.
Cassia’s release follows behind, wrapping her legs around him as she twitches underneath, feeling her body release every tense motion in this position.
After a few minutes of recovering, Macrinus gently pulls out, watching her suck the remaining seed in before he got and knocked on the door, asking one of the guard to bring him a bowl of water and some towels.
A quick opening and closing of the door and he’s next to her, squeezing the excessive water out before he rubbing the cooling towel all over her body, cleaning up anything fluids that were there.
“…..do I have to go back?” she asked, breaking the silence.
“When I said I’m silencing him permanently, I meant that.” he replied, helping her sit up.
“Well…..he should be here to pick me up soon.” she said, getting up to put on her dress.
Macrinus nodded, not replying as he put his dress and tunic back on, waiting for a knock from the guards. A few minutes later, loud knocking comes, signaling Dominus has arrived.
“Dominus! Nice to see you again.” said Macrinus as he opens the door and sees the stoneface figure standing.
“Did she comply?” asked Dominus, looking over at Cassia, who’s fixing her hair.
“Yeah. Worn my old ass out if anything!” he chuckles. “But I wanted to renegotiate our deal.”
“Renegotiate?”
“Yes! You see, I asked for her hand in marriage and she is possibly carrying my child, so I don’t think it’s necessary for her to return to you. So, she’s staying with me now and you can go on home..” said Macrinus as he gently pushes Dominus back, but the latter shoves him.
“I’m afraid that’s not possible. We agreed that she was your reward and you was going to break into her. She’s my property and I’m here to take her home so the next clients can get a turn.” he replied coldly, making Cassia stand up.
Macrinus looks at him with an ominous glare, stepping back into his spot while keeping eye contact. Then, he takes out his knife and stabs him quickly, making Dominus gasp and look down.
“And that’s the problem. You sees them as property, not women you should be taking care of if you want business to continue.” he said, pushing the blade deeper which makes Dominus wince.
“She told me how she got those scars on her arm and how your lack of discipline towards the client is why she wasn’t giving in. And giving them cheap necklaces with fake pendants to easily find them? Oh, your niggard ass won’t be missed.” he replied, pulling it out and watching him topple over.
Blood spilling out of Dominus’ mouth as he gasps for air, making Cassia turn away, not wanting to see the rest. Macrinus kneels down and slices his neck open, killing him. He tosses the knife next to him and back ups, turning to the doors.
“Chop him up and send it back to his neighborhood. That’ll send a message that she’s not going back, the women are free, and Rome is going to fall.” he told the guards, walking over to Cassia.
The guards rush in and take Dominus’ body as Macrinus wraps his arms around her and they begin walking, leaving the room.
“You okay?” he asks, making sure she is perfectly fine.
Cassia nods, smiling tiredly as she lays her head on his shoulder.
🜲 🜲 🜲 🜲 🜲 🜲 🜲 🜲 🜲 🜲 🜲 🜲 🜲 🜲 🜲 🜲 🜲 🜲 🜲 🜲 🜲 🜲 🜲 🜲
Its been three months since Cassia slept with Macrinus, but the promised life of being a wife to the Emperor and raising his children never succeeded.
Following the Senate & Caracalla swearing him in and ordering the execution of Lucilla and some senators to be done by Lucius and the gladiators, which turn into chaos that ended with the citizens, Lucius, and the gladiators turning against them, he successfully executed Caracalla and Lucilla before escaping to stop the army Lucius order to invade and wipe out his own.
She doesn’t know the remaining details of what happened, but all she knows is after Lucius sliced Macrinus’ hand off, he killed him and reunited everyone, swearing on his grandfather’s dream of making Rome united and peaceful to other countries they captured.
The news of his death spread fast and she fell out, crying in the streets, with her sisters consoling her. She stayed in the house, missing meals, and not waiting to talk until she began feeling nauseous, crying a little more, and eating more than usual.
That’s when she knew that she was pregnant with their child. She tried to hide it, but gave up around 8 weeks when her belly started to show and it didn’t help that she was already a plus size girl.
Cassia was sitting in a chair inside her room, planning the nursery when she hears a knock on the door.
“Come in.” she said, looking up.
The door opens and Aelia pops her head in, sending her a smile.
“Hey. I hope I’m not interrupting anything.” she said, creeping in.
“No, just figuring out things for my child. What’s going on?” Cassia asks.
“I know this is sudden….but the emperor is here. And he wants to speak with you.” she said quickly.
Rage instantly lights up inside Cassia, who tries to get up but Aelia stops her, trying to calm her down.
“I know this is not what you want to hear..”
“You let my husband’s murderer into this house without asking me?!” yelled Cassia as she pushed Aelia, who is not giving up.
“It was unexpected! He just…showed up and walked in, asking for you!”
“Well you tell him to get the hell out and never return or else!” Cassia said, shoving Aelia back hard that she bumps into the cabinet.
“Or else what?” a familiar male voice said.
Turning to the voice, Lucius stands in the doorway, watching everything she did. Cassia stares back at him with a glare, wanting to harm him but knows she can’t do much since anything that can be used as a weapon is far from her.
“Aelia, you can leave us.” he said, walking closer.
“She’s not going anywhere and you don’t bark orders around here.” said Cassia.
“Cassia….just talk to him.” said Aelia.
Aelia bows in front of him before leaving, closing the door behind her.
Tension fills the silence as Lucius walks around, taking in her room before looking towards the curtained window, which has sunlight peeping through.
“….What do you want?” asked Cassia.
“I remember you, you know.” he replied, looking at her.
“So? I have a familiar face around here.”
He laughed quietly, walking towards her.
“I meant I remember you from the day General Acacius was executed. After that. You were accompanying Macrinus and sat outside the cell when we were talking.”
“Oh right. The day you couldn’t bring yourself to killing your stepfather who got your wife killed during the capturing of your land.” she said coldly.
“He apologized.” as he sits in front of her, with her covering her baby bump.
“He didn’t know I was my mother’s missing son. I spared his life for her.”
“And look what it got you? A dead mother.” she scoffed.
“Nothing you say hurts me, Cassia.”
“Who said it’s about hurting you?”
“Well, I know you’re only reacting like this is because of Macrinus.” he said, staring at her.
She laughed evilly, moving a bit in her seat as she leans forward.
“You clearly know nothing about me. You lost your mother and wife? I lost everything because of you and your dynasty. So whatever you’re here looking for, you’re not gonna find it. So, emperor, please leave.” she said, leaning back into her seat.
“I know. Kidnapped after your husband died fighting for Rome, your family accused of trying to steal the throne and being executed, being forced in selling your body so the man who bought can eat, and losing a man who promises a new Rome after you two made a baby out of love…” he said, trying to touch her stomach.
Cassia slaps him very hard, anger inflicted all over her face. Lucius smiles, feeling the stinging grow as he looks at her, slightly turned on by her deviance.
“I can never get my wife back. Nor my parents. But what I can do is help someone out. And someone who is perfect to sit next to me as I lead Rome into a new era. That someone is you, Cassia.”
“Oh, go to hell, Lucius. This city is not gonna take kind to you not only having a big black curvy woman for a wife, but the widow of the man you killed and their son? Not gonna happen.” she replied.
“You think I care? This city made up lies that I was a product of incest between my mother and her brother. You weren’t his wife yet and this is a child out of wedlock. Which is a very common thing around here.”
“I’m not taking your offer. So please go.”
Lucius nods, getting up to walk out. However, he picks her up to her feet, making her step back in fear of what he’ll do. Instead, he drops to his knees and rubs her belly before placing his ear to it.
“If you’re expecting some motion, I’m not that far along.” she said.
“They’re planning to charge you.” he confessed.
“……what?” she said, a puzzled expression on her face.
“I’m aware that Dominus wasn’t very kind to you because most clients couldn’t make it past kissing. But I don’t know what happened to him the night he gave you to Macrinus as his body was….in pieces when they found him.” he replied before getting back up.
“I didn’t kill him! He did. And he told the guards to chop him up! I swear I didn’t touch him.”
“Do you have proof?”
Cassia stares at him, wanting to say no but she knows she didn’t do it. She begins hyperventilating, making Lucius help her sit down and coach her through breathing exercises until she was back to normal.
“…..I didn’t do it!” she exclaims, busting out in tears.
Lucius confronts her, letting her cry it out against his chest. She sniffles, feeling her become numb from her constant crying.
“They can’t take my baby away from me for something I didn’t even do!” she said, looking at him.
“That’s why I’m asking you to join me. I can protect you from execution and being charged, you just have to go along with it. Your girls can come and this will all be forgotten.” he said, leaning forward.
“At least do something that he promised he would give you.” he whispers, rubbing her face.
Lucius kisses her face before walking out, closing the door behind him. She looks around the room as the option lingers in her mind.
Stay here and go to prison with possible execution or go live in the house with your love’s killer and raise your child keep playing as she rubbed her belly. Every fear, tear, anger, and thought riled inside her up until the last moment of her final decision.
Cassia opens the door and walks to the living room where Lucius and her sisters were chattering and eating. She stands in the doorway as his eyes looked at her, silencing the room.
“Everything okay?” asked Diana.
Cassia walks to Lucius, who turns to her in his seat. She stands in front of him and kneels, hearing everyone gasp around the table.
“Emperor Lucius……I take your offering to be your wife and build Rome back up. Like your grandfather wanted.” she said, tears streaming down her face.
Her sisters cheered as Lucius watched, a smile creeping along his face.
