Hello everyone! I have recently rewatched every season of Spartacus and I got the inspiration to write this story! Please let me know if I should continue this or not! Reviews would be lovely!
"Lucinda!" Lucretia exclaimed, waking up the sleeping woman. Lucinda's eyes opened slowly, squinting a bit at the morning light. "Sister? What meaning do you have waking me so urgently?" Lucinda asked, sitting up in her bed. "Quintus is reviewing the those bought at market." she informed. "I may have convinced him to let you become a domina of one. If you so desire of course." Lucretia added, a sly smile placed upon her lips. Lucinda's eyes widened. Since arriving at the lupus many months ago, she did desire to become a domina of a gladiator. "Yes sister. I desire that greatly." she responded, her eyes lit with anticipation. "I thought as such. We shall attend the review midday. I would see that Mira attends you." Lucretia stated, pressing her lips on Lucinda's forehead and she took her leave.
Lucinda and Lucretia have been very close, ever since Lucinda was a little babe. Though Lucinda was 8 years her junior, Lucretia considers her very best fried and would not let any harm come to her little sister. While Lucretia is considered ruthless, Lucinda has a kinder heart and a strong spirit that refuses to be broken. She does feel pity for the slaves and gladiators, she treats them with kindness whenever they cross her path. One of the things she desired most, however, was to learn to defend herself. Back home she was the object of many men forcing themselves on her and she hated that she had no means to defend herself. Maybe now that she would have her very own gladiator, she can learn to be more guarded.
The time grew near to the review and Lucinda walked with her sister and Ilithyia. They were chatting and gossiping, something that Lucinda did not particularly care fore. She remained silent, lost in there own thoughts. "Isn't that right sister?" Lucretia's voice snapped her out of her daze. "Apologizes. I was not aware I was a part of your conversation." she said simply as they walked onto the balcony. Doctore was talking with the recruits. Her eyes scanned the men standing below, her gaze fixed on the two that appeared to be brothers.
"Quintus." she said, standing next to him, her arms on the railing. "I have made my decision on which gladiator I would like." she said confidently. Quintus turned to her, intrigued who her choice would be. "I would like the brothers. Both of them." she informed, her icy blue eyes connecting with his. He hesitated for a moment, "They do seem to be a package deal do they not?" he responded. "Very well. It is decided." he turned his attention back to the line of men, "Doctore. Our darling Lucinda has chosen." Quintus informed. Oenemaus fell silent, waiting for Quintus to inform everyone of Lucinda's decision. "Agron. Duro. Step forward." he commanded. The two brothers stepped out of line. "Do you have words for your gladiators?" Quintus asked. Lucinda nodded and proceeded to speak. "I look forward to being your Domina. May the gods bless you with many victories." she said genuinely, giving both of them a sweet smile. "Yes Domina." he responded in unison before they were commanded to fall back in line.
"Come sister! We must celebrate both you and Ilithyia having gladiators of your own!" Lucretia exclaimed, ushering both of them into the villa. Lucinda casted one last look at her gladiators before she was inside, a smirk upon her red lips.
