UPRISING Chapter 43
The senators' chamber buzzed with heated whispers after Alcides was led away. Fabius, fuming with rage, paced back and forth, occasionally casting disdainful glances toward Rhesus. "This insolence cannot go unpunished, Rhesus! A gladiator suppressing a Thracian senator?" he spat, his voice laced with venom.Rhesus, attempting to maintain an air of authority, addressed the agitated senators. "Let us not be hasty in our decisions. We need a measured response, not one fueled by anger."Fabius interrupted, "Measured response? Rhesus, that beast just challenged our authority! You, as the head of this house, should be outraged!"Others chimed in, expressing various degrees of displeasure and advocating for severe punishment. The atmosphere became increasingly tense.In an effort to defuse the situation, Rhesus declared, "I will convene a council to deliberate on the appropriate course of action. Fabius, I understand your anger, but we must maintain order."Fabius, dissatisfied with the resp

In the dimly lit chamber adorned with the sigils of power, Fabius stood at the head of a table surrounded by a handful of trusted senators. The air was heavy with secrecy, and every hushed word carried the weight of rebellion."Brothers," Fabius began, his eyes scanning the faces that bore the marks of both concern and determination. "We stand at the precipice of an Athenian dominion that threatens our very existence. We cannot idly watch as our heritage is trampled upon."A senator with a greying beard, known for his strategic acumen, voiced his skepticism. "Fabius, you propose we defy the Athenian Kingdom openly? Such a move invites destruction upon us."Fabius nodded solemnly, acknowledging the gravity of their endeavor. "Yes, but it's a risk we must take if we are to preserve the sovereignty of Thrace. Rhesus may not fully endorse our cause, but we can sway him. We have influential allies within his inner circle."The senator with the greying beard leaned forward, his voice a mere
UPRISING Chapter 41
In the vast expanse of the grand arena in Pratas, Alcides felt dwarfed by the sheer size and magnitude of the space around him. The cheers and chants from the spectators echoed like distant thunder, creating an overwhelming sensation for the young gladiator who was accustomed to the confined space of the House of Decimus.Facing the notorious Gaius Pratas, known as the "beast of Pratas," Alcides sensed the gravity of the challenge ahead. Pratas, a seasoned and ruthless gladiator, exuded confidence with every step. The crowd's thunderous cheers for their favorite champion added to the pressure mounting on Alcides' shoulders.As the battle commenced, the clash of steel against steel reverberated through the arena. Alcides, wielding his sword with a mixture of fear and determination, struggled to find his footing in the expansive battleground. Pratas, on the other hand, moved with the precision of a predator, closing in on his younger adversary.The crowd, sensing the uneven matchup, int
UPRISING Chapter 40
Thrown into a dark, cold cell, Alcides found himself alone with the echoes of the senator's warning ringing in his ears. Bruised, battered, and bewildered, he sat in the dimness, contemplating the unexpected turn of events. The air in the cell was heavy with the stench of despair, and the cold, hard floor offered little comfort.As Alcides tried to make sense of the situation, his mind raced through the recent revelations about his true identity, the encounter with Bojan, the mysterious disappearance of the beggar, and now the harsh punishment inflicted upon him by those he believed were his parents. The events unfolded like a twisted tale, and he grappled with the harsh reality that his life had become.Hours passed in solitude, but time seemed to stretch endlessly in the confines of the cell. Alcides replayed the senator's words, trying to decipher the motives behind the calculated punishment. The sense of betrayal lingered, not just from the senator but also from the house of Decim
UPRISING Chapter 39
Alcides rose from his restless sleep, his mind still echoing with the unsettling revelations and encounters of the previous night. The weight of his newfound knowledge bore down on him as he dressed hastily, his thoughts racing like a tempest. The name "Maximus," the mysterious disappearance of Bojan, and the slip of Octavia's tongue lingered in his mind like unresolved enigmas.As he stepped out of his chamber, the air felt charged with a peculiar tension. Alcides' instincts heightened, sensing an unusual atmosphere within the house of Decimus. To his surprise, the usual quietude of the morning was disrupted by the presence of Thracian soldiers on horseback stationed in front of the grand entrance.Alcides took a step back, concealed in the shadows of the corridor, contemplating whether this was an anticipated visit or an unexpected event. His mind raced with possibilities – had the news of his victory in the mini arena reached the Thracian army so swiftly, or was this an unrelated m
UPRISING Chapter 38
As Octavia advanced toward Alcides, her silhouette flickering in the dim candlelight, Alcides could feel the tension in the room thickening. His heart raced, and he stammered, "What are you doing here, Octavia?" Octavia, with a sly smile, whispered, "You're a strong and intriguing man, Alcides. I wanted to see if the rumors about you were true."Alcides, caught between confusion and the allure of the situation, tried to step back, but Octavia's presence was magnetic. She continued her advance, her eyes locking onto his with a fiery intensity. "I've heard tales of your victories in the arena," she murmured, trailing her fingers lightly along his chest. "But I wonder, can you conquer challenges outside the gladiator's ring?"Alcides, now acutely aware of the senator's wife's intentions, managed to gather his thoughts. "This is not right, Octavia. You're a senator's wife," he protested, though his voice wavered. Octavia, undeterred, pressed a finger to his lips, silencing him. "Tonight,
