    Summary

    “Sign with your blood or your sweat, Yoichi,” whispered Michael Kaiser.

    The distant roar of the crowd vibrated through the stone floor like a rhythmic, hungry heartbeat. Dust motes danced in the single shaft of light breaking through the iron bars, illuminating the heavy, oppressive air of the ludus. The smell of iron, blood and stale despair hung thick in the dungeon, a scent so pervasive it seemed to coat the back of the throat.

    Kaiser stood before the cell, an apparition of pristine nobility amidst the filth. He extended his ornate walking cane, the gold tip catching the light, and hooked it under the chin of the sweating, battered gladiator, forcing his head up.

    "Smile, Yoichi," Kaiser purred, his blue eyes gleaming with a terrifying mixture of possession and amusement. "I am the man who is pulling you out of this hole. And from this moment on, the only one you will ever belong to."
