Gladiator - Price of Freedom

A Roman Empire Assassin's Revenge

He fought for glory in the Colosseum, but victory was just the beginning of his enslavement. Sold to a shadowy baroness with a web of secrets, the gladiator Cassian is forced to trade his sword for a killer's dagger. His first target is a merchant in a filthy city alley ; his second, a powerful senator ruined by a planted lie .

Each life he takes pushes him deeper into a world of political intrigue and moral decay, a pawn in his mistress’s deadly game to seize control of the city. His only promised reward is a deed of manumission, a freedom that seems to recede with every bloody act .

But when a brutal command forces him to face an old friend in a private arena, a devastating truth is revealed—one that shatters his chains of servitude and ignites a cold, unstoppable rage . Now, Cassian must use the very skills his cruel mistress taught him to dismantle her empire from the inside, piece by bloody piece. He was her weapon. Now he is her reckoning.
