We travel back to Ancient Rome, where slaves lived entirely at the mercy of their Owner’s will. In the house of patrician Patronius, a grand feast takes place. Since the loss of his wife, Patronius spoils Claudia and Antonia even more than before, allowing them to rule freely over the household and torment the slave girls for their amusement. But when proud Antonia arrogantly rejects the marriage proposal of Ultrix, the insult strikes deeply. Soon after, Patronius suddenly disappears from the scene, leaving his fortune to Ultrix — and with it, a shocking truth is revealed Claudia and Antonia were slaves who had never been granted freedom. Their lives will take a dramatic turn in the second part of this story.
