"Yes you will. You have to." she told the other woman, watching her as the glass of wine was brought to her. She was waiting. Good. Not trying to grab the drug from her or anything so foolish. No, she'd decided to wait and see Livia's mercy. And the Roman knew mercy when she needed it much as admittedly she found it pointless and boring and generally found genocide a lot more productive as uses of her time went. Before handing over the drug she leaned in grabbing the womans chin not too softly and repeating the phrase she'd used just then. "I have your loyalty. Me and Rome." Livia tightened her grip and yet the kiss when it followed was soft and almost yielding before the Roman pulled away and added some of the drug to the woman's wine.
She'd have given her enough to think about while the drug hit Gaia's system and so she leaned back, dark eyes almost dancing in amusement. It would likely have been unexpected. Likely have thrown her, because Livia had only been known to Gaia as the Champion of Ares. But her Lord understood. She'd had to lie with Augustus in order to further her own ambitions and more than that besides. Gaia was useful to her and with the promise of drugs and the pleasure Livia could give if Gaia returned or furthered the initial contact then Livia would have her, body and heart combined. Did she love her, no. Care for her, only marginally, would she fuck her to control her. Of course she would.
"Tell me how you feel Gaia?" she asked once the woman had taken some of her wine. "Tell me what it does to you. I want you to be descriptive." Now it was Livia's turn to set her hands to work at Gaia's shoulders but of course with a lot more seduction to the act than the drug starved Gaia had shown. Hot breath would be felt as she spoke, leaning into Gaia's neck.
"I want to know why this thing, this simple thing has such a powerful hold on you."
