wounded_warrior
Her name was Vitatrix, the first empress of Rome.
You won't see her in any of the history books, or hear her name in any ballad or song.
She isn't even mentioned in myth or legend. Her mark on mankind was erased, because she was a woman.
Long ago Rome's emperor died with out a son. His cousin, a roman senator ascended to the throne with out a legitimate heir, or so everyone thought.
Fear started to grip the citizens of Rome as new threats rose from every corner of the empire.
In the city of Clusium, a daughter that was born to the new roman emperor, hidden by his wife. All of this to protect her from the possible rage and discrimination from her own family.
All because she was born a girl.
In a world where men rule, can this sole female heir secure her rightful place? Or will her gender pull her down?
Raised by the midwife that helped bring her into the world, a young Trix finds out who she truly is.
She must return to a family she has never known and save the Roman Empire from anarchy.
She must fight a corrupt senator, a secret society, and her own fears of the future.
Together with her best friend, Hector, she will learn that not everyone can be trusted.
Not all stories have a happy ever after. Will this one?
