Ceri, an Iceni princess, and Roman officer Marek share the same beliefs and when they discover they are uniquely able to satisfy each others dark desires they plan an idyllic life together once Marek's service with the legions is complete. To the outside world Ceri is a fierce and proud warrior, only Marek sees her secret desire for sexual submission and through his dominance he both awakens and fulfills it. But when Nero becomes emperor of Rome and plans to make the Iceni lands an occupied territory Queen Boudica calls for war and leads the Iceni to annihilate Londinium and its 70,000 inhabitants. Now all that stands in the way of driving the Romans from Britannia is Marek and his overwhelmingly outnumbered legion.
