Nova Roma

Chapter 104 - Felixs Story 1/2



In one of my talks I had with her, I told her that I needed a massage so that I could sleep peacefully, I never thought that her version of massage was so little conservative and too liberal.

The milk I drank at every night made me sleep like a stone in the morning I just felt quite relaxed, I have to apologize to both of you for not realizing the sacrifice Arabela made. "

Flavio just ducked his head waiting for someone to say something, but only found his daughter Felix sighing "Mother never blamed you for anything, she often told me that she knew that if you found out she was pregnant you were able to break your commitment to Hellena to take care of her.

But she couldn’t allow you to fight Emperor Augustus just for his selfishness, that’s why she decided to run away and avoid any kind of fight.

She settled in the province of Gaul in Lugdunensis where I was born, because I was a girl she decided to take care of any possible kidnapping or abuse that’s why she named me Felix and was forcing me to behave like a boy.

Thanks to the fact that she had to work all day in the local temple, behaving as a boy prevented me from suffering some kind of abuse by the neighbors without mentioning that it prevented me from suffering discrimination with my friends when we play.

The situation improved when she became a teacher since she did not have to go so far to work, everything was normal until one day they published in the newspaper that Flavio the emperor’s grandson had sailed alongside a large expedition to conquer a wild continent.

At that moment my mother broke into tears, after that her face never regained her joy, everything was normal in our lives until we traveled to Rome because my mother won a prize for being an excellent teacher.

Rome was a living city but everything changed when rumors began to be heard that beggars were caught in the suburbs that killed and devoured passersby, nobody paid attention until the hotel where we were was attacked.

The screams of the people were horrible, my mother took me and we went out into the street where we could see that Rome was on fire, people were running and those who were trapped were bitten by monsters.

Those who had been bitten woke up soon after and attacked the others, mother took a dagger that was on the ground and we started to escape from the city.

But all the places where we passed were full of those monsters, in the end, my mother with tears in her eyes decided to go to the temple of Jupiter, she said that place would be safe.

We ran for a great time and managed to see a lot of legionaries being killed by a large group of monsters, mother took me by the hand and led me through some alleys of the city.

Until in one of them we met a group of those creatures that were eating poor children, they watched us and ran towards us, quickly we went to one of the doors that were open in one of the houses and closed the door with some furniture

The door was pushed brutally for some time, we were extremely scared because we feared they were going to tear down the door but then we heard a scream from a woman asking for help and the pushing on the door gave way.

I don’t know what happened to the woman, but thanks to her screams, those monsters stopped their attack on the door giving us a break, inside the house the darkness was annoying but fortunately we didn’t hear noises from someone inside.

Mother and I carefully looked for some candle or torch in the house to have a light source, I looked up and mother looked on the ground floor, I climbed the stairs very carefully hoping not to meet an unpleasant surprise.

Guiding me alone with the low moonlight that entered through the windows of the second floor between the first room of the house, inside I could see some wooden toys and a crib, it was the room of a baby look among his things to Try to find something that could help us.

But then I heard a noise coming from the closet, I looked to my side to look for some tool that I could use as a weapon if the situation was dangerous, fortunately, I didn’t have to look for much because I found a wooden sword.

Armed with what I considered a weapon I slowly approached the closet to open the door when I could observe a scene that I will never forget, a woman with a scary face was being eaten by a baby.

The woman seemed to have died some time ago but the baby seemed not to care and continued eating from the viscera of the woman, when the infant turned to see me I could see his eyes completely black, with his small hands and feet began to crawl towards me.

I was scared but at the same time I didn’t want to die like the woman in the closet, I squeezed the wooden sword I had hard and hit the baby’s head with all my might.

Again and again, until her brain stops were muddy on the wooden floor of the room, mother quickly climbed the stairs to see what happened, she just ignored the baby’s remains and hugged me while telling me that everything would be fine. ..
