Book 2 Chapter 17
Trix stood frozen between Jacob and her aunt. She knew Jacob had heard what Aria had called her. How foolish of them to let their guard down.
"We will discuss this later Jacob." Trix whispered.
"If you are who she says you are then you must get out of here." Jacob said.
"Not without everyone being safe. If I escape they will use this as leverage." She explained.
"Silence!" Marcus commanded. "As you see there is no empress, her future consort is my prisoner, I told captive majority of nobles in Rome. So now you will have over the crown to me."
"The empress will return." A man in the crowd shouted.

Hector marched into the hall where the senators and other leaders of Rome had gathered. Two weeks had passed since the attempted rebellion of Gaius and Marcus where Trix had disappeared. The senators were in a frenzy, they still believed that Trix was on a military tour. They began to worry, the reign of the empress was young and very susceptible to people who wish to take over the empire themselves. Many were pressing for Trix to wed in order to show a stronger front. Hector debated with many of them explaining that this would only show their lack of confidence in their empress. Vitatrix may be a woman but she was proving to her people that women were not weak.After the attempt no other unrest outside of the ordinary was reported. It was as if Marcus and his men had vanished. Gaius had been killed in the fight and his son was making right his father's mistake. Not surprisingly C

Hector ordered for the nation's top spies to report to him that night. They had agreed that a larger force would not be practical, nor would it make sense to attack with put confirming that Trix was indeed being held captive in Felix's villa."Seeing as everyone is now here this is your mission, we will march out before dawn and camp in the woods behind the villa." Hector explained pointing at the map on the table. "From there the spies will advance first to confirm if the empress is indeed being kept captive there and if she is still within the grounds. We will all be dressed discreetly. The forge has made a new light weight armor that we can test out, it should be well hidden under our cloaks and disguises."The men all nodded in understanding."Expect the place to be

Heiress of Rome Meeting Destiny
It all felt like a dream. Like a never ending dream. Vitatrix lay on her bed for what felt like hours before she could realize that what had happened the day before was no dream. She was truly the heir to the Roman empire. But would it be possible for her to ascend the throne? Women could not inherit. At least not commoners and peasants. But would she need to wed? Would she be forced to marry a man she has never met? Questions kept flooding her mind. She didn't even know if the citizens of Rome would accept her as their future ruler. And what of her auntie? Would she ever see her again once she was introduced? She would have to face this alone. Then she realized she didn't have to, Hector, her best friend and a noble by birth could accompany her. Trix immediately got up and dressed. She went about fixing her bed when she realized the necklace was under her pillow. She held it in her hand and thought to herself, this necklace symbolizes who I truly am. This was also the only

"From today onward you should get used to being called 'my lady' or 'your highness'. I know it's a stretch Trix but it's the cards you have been dealt." Artemisia scolded Trix as she started to groan at the thought of being called anything other than her name.She had been having lessons with Juliana for the past two days and they left tomorrow at sunrise. The clothing Juliana had ordered made for her were packed and ready to go. She constantly wore the necklace that symbolized her inheritance. She didn't want to but Artemisia and Juliana insisted. They said that it would help her accept the truth. And it would give her a chance to think and realize that she was truly the heiress of the Roman Empire and she had a responsibility to the people.Trix could not help but question her readiness to take on the responsibilities expected of her
Heiress of Rome The Journey Home
It was a days journey from Clusium to the city of Rome. They had left at dawn as planned. The guards were all set and General Cato rode at the front of the party. Trix could not help but stare at the man. He it seemed that he was chiseled from marble. With every look he gave Trix she felt like melting. It was something about this mysterious general that attracted her. They came to a halt to rest. She turned her attention to Hector, who was practicing with some of the soldiers. Hector and a young soldier named Gaius quickly became friends because they were of the same age. Like Hector, Gaius had been training to be a soldier of Rome even before he could walk. He was the son of a soldier and a freed female gladiator. Fighting was in his blood."Hey princess maybe it's time you learned to use the pretty dagger I have you." Hector teased."
Heiress of Rome Home
Vitatrix was not able to sleep that night. Cato had told her to get some rest before they departed. They immediately buried Juliana's body after the fight. Artemisia held her tight as she kept fighting the tears. Juliana had cared for her just as Artemisia had. She had two mothers growing up and she had lost one. More than anything Trix was worried about Hector. His mother meant everything to him. He barely saw his father and without his mother the closest family he had was his grandfather, the Roman senator Julian. Would the senator accept her friend? He was after all his sole heir.They had buried Juliana in the forest that night. Offerings and prayers had been made. This was no way to put to rest a daughter of a Roman Senator, but they had to make haste. If they did no leave by the next day their enemies could gather their supporters and attack once more.

The soldiers had returned to their barracks and Artemisia was led by a servant to her chambers."Hector" the emperor began "first I would like to thank you for being a fierce protector and friend of my daughter. Artemisia would write to us about you. Although I had no idea that you were Juliana's son.""Her death breaks my heart. We were friends. We grew up together. Well she was first engaged to Patricius." The empress said gravely.This came as a shock to both Hector and Trix. If the couples had not defied their parents both of them would not exist."The last time I spoke to Juliana we were planning on marrying our children to each other." Eliana chuckled as she saw th
