1 HOPE

It felt so unfair to have him die, like a cruel dream. Lucilla wished he was alive so they could be together like they used to be years ago until fate turned her cruelty upon them and tore asunder all their love and broke their hearts with one blow. Life would've been worthless if she didn't have Lucius he was her world now and for all those long years she didn't have Maximus. Maximus, was her sun, her light, without him her world was in darkness. How she hated that darkness she hated herself she should've been stronger and not betrayed the one man she had ever loved. That kiss they shared felt like all the pain and loneliness flew from her heart like a bird. She had felt loved by the man she wanted to be loved by the most, the man she loved with all her heart. Their love had been tested and she failed perhaps in Elysium the gods would have pity and keep them together in death if not in life. Her life would go on and that would be her comfort through all the long nights and days without him. She would have hope of Elysium and him at her side. Forever.
