TAKEN Sacramentum Gladiatorum
Concepts: Gladiator x Roman, Gladiator x Slave, D/s, role reversal, exhibitionism, gore, revenge, degradation
The new gladiator in the ludus evaded death against near impossible odds. He's strong willed but appears loyal. The domina sees him as a blunt instrument, an assassin to kill her enemies and possibly even her overbearing husband. He sees her as a way to gain freedom. Their arrangement goes awry when the city falls to rebelling slaves and the domina learns what it means to lose her position of power.
Another idea that could be added to the first or combined: a woman born into slavery is the secret lover of her master for many years. His wife becomes suspicious of their tryst, and despite not loving her husband, his wife is a jealous and manipulative woman. In an act of revenge she coyly suggests during a party that her husband should give his favourite slave to one of the most ferocious gladiators in their ludus.
