Very good start, a little slow at the beginning but it picked up nicely. Keep going I'm interested to see where you take this.
Glad you guys are enjoying it! And don't worry, things will get much spicier in the next few chapters
I don't often give 5 stars, but this was excellent. I can't wait for the next chapter.
Superb beginning, a very hot and sensual start, full of promise...
... looking forward to how you deliver on it.
This story had me creating an account so I can bookmark... In Nigeria, we say, this story burst head. Too lit. Looking forward to seeing more of this story and anymore you'll be posting.
It is an involved plot with an Empress testing a simple soldier—excellent writing with super dialogue. Helena raised his blood pressure and lust before leading him to the Empresses. Her test was demanding of a Roman trained to obey and when necessary to improvise as he did when he saw the knife. Before the knife, he had to seal his fidelity to the Empresses with several kisses one of a sexual nature. A story that needs a sequel for the sake of the story but also for the reader's sanity.
Excellent writing, you pulled the reader n immediately. Your descriptions and flow of words was very good. Looking forward to more!
Interesting premise.
It sounds as if the descriptions of places and battles make sense.
Sex, auch as it happens, is abbreviated.
Four stars.
"This is a story set in the Imperial court of the Byzantine Empire in the year 532 AD. It is the tale of a young soldier inducted into the guard of a very horny Empress." When I read this I immediately thought of Madeleine Kahn in "History of the World, Part I"
I very much appreciated your attention to historical detail; my university degree was in Ancient and Medieval History, with a focus on the Eastern and Western Roman Empire. Makes me want to illustrate the story.
As a total fan of natural women this right up my alley, the historical bits seem accurate tho a long time since my ancient history courses, and LOVE her required oath /kiss to her personally.
I suspect her personal guardswoman will have some more tests of his abilities-lucky Leon!
This is the sort of first chapter that causes one to scan, daily, the new submissions, to see the next chapter in this story. Very well done.
Thank you, RobynBee.
