The Truth
The hall was filled with men and women of the nobility. Many stared as Trix entered the room, the ladies gossiped on why instead of her betrothed she had come with the heir of House Julian. Others were simply unaware of who Hector wad and assumed him to be Lord Felix the younger. Trix scanned the room in search of Felix, he was not there.
"I cannot see him." She whispered to Hector.
"I'm sure there is a reason for his absence. An urgent matter perhaps?" Hector patted her hand as they made their way to the head of the hall where a table wad prepared for the imperial family. They stood as the emperor greeted the guests and only sat when he sat.
At this Hector moved to make his way to a seat near his grandfather and fathet when the emperor called him. "Surely you will sit with us Hector.

Had a servant found him?Hector lost consciousness once more.He could feel the light as it streamed through a window on the roof. Then a knock came from the opposite end of the room. He tried to move, but his body failed to cooperate. The knock grew louder and more urgent. Had he be given some poison?"Hector open the door this instant!"Came Trix's voice from the other side.

Heiress of Rome Confessions
Trix sat by Hector's side. She watched him go from bad to worse. He had a raging fever and the poison had not yet been found. The doctors told her that he might not make the night."Hector I'm here, I love you. Don't leave me. I only agreed to marry Felix because you were betrothed to Marcella." Trix confessed. She did not know if Hector could hear her. All she knew was that she needed him to get better she needed him. A life without Hector would not be a life worth living."My Lady, the doctors are here to see him." Fausta said with downcast eyes.

They had the best medical resources possible and yet a cure had not yet been found. The love of her life was dying and she could not do an

Hector could suddenly feel himself coming back. He could see the light, he could feel the heat of the room. The late thing he remembered was Trix pressing her lips onto his and he dove back into oblivion. He thought that would be the last. He thought it was the end. Then suddenly all of his senses began to awaken. He could hear the clamor of the doctors around him as they rushed in and out of his chambers. He could feel the heat, either of the candle or sunlight entering his room. He could smell the disgusting odor of the medicines they must have given him. But there was once sound he craved to hear, one scent he wanted to smell, one touch he wanted to feel. He wanted to know Trix was there. That she had stayed, that she had not given up on him as he lay dying. And if she had he swore he would win her back.Slowly Gravity managed to open his eyes, and for the first time in what seemed to

"You are not only the heir to one of the richest families but also a close friend of the heiress herself. To them you were the ideal pawn.""I'm surprised you did not accept it father." Aquila said. It was the first time Hector had actually heard his father call his grandfather father."Why did you refuse?" The emperor asked."We left the society for a reason.

The empress said trying to calm her daughter. "A man came in from the servant's entrance as we were planning the celebration tonight.
