It was the words of her Dominus Xavier everything had stilled around Dalia as the words sunk in <span style="font-style: italic"> "sleep with me"</span>.

Dalia's eyes focused quickly and cast themselves down, nodding gently a thank you. Quickly she told her of the wine and headed back for more, she had yet replenished the gladiator's below. <br/><br/>With quick steps and silence she made her way to the cellar removing the wine for the men.

Taking in a breath she gathered herself and lifted the jug, tapping on the cell door to bring in the wine for the gladiator's. </span>
