Julio prepared to leave his Villa and go to the palace because he knew that Estela could not run too much he carried it on his back so he could carry it while running through the courtyard of the palace in his attempt to reach the cave.

Julio took a deep breath "Estela please support yourself as when you reach orgasm, once I open the door I will have to use the sword if necessary, so I cannot load you correctly.

I do not want you to die."

Estela nodded and Julio opened the door to run through the courtyard, the dead who were lying in the courtyard were raised by the noise caused by Julio while running.

Running through the patio was simple because the dead took too long to get up, something that seemed odd was to feel that Estela squeezed her hard with her legs but could not speak because he had to keep running.

When he reached the entrance of the palace he could see one of the lions on the property devouring one of the Praetorian guards.

Julio knew that he could not against a lion, so he held Estela’s feet and ran, ignoring the lion that was in the palace hall, the lion did not seem to mind Julio because he was devouring another human.

He ran through the corridors until he reached the office of Augustus where the entrance to the cave was when fortunately on the road he could not see any of those damn things, under Estela from his back and he locked the wooden door with one of the furniture.

After finishing July, he turned to see his wife and realized the cruel reality. Estela had a wound on her back, a large scratch that left a great wound on her wife’s back.

Julio went to the many ledges of his father and found a glass bottle full of alcohol distilled, took Estela very carefully and approached her "You have to disinfect the hurt love, this is going to hurt a little."

Estela hugged Julio as he felt the cold alcohol run down his back, causing the pain of burning buries his nails in Julio’s back, after using alcohol Julio used cloth from the room to improvise a bandage.

Which he settled on Estela’s back, when he finished he kissed his wife and began to move the furniture where the entrance to the cave was.

Estela was sad and angry that she could not help her husband but as a noblewoman, she never had to face situations like the one she was going through, but while her husband was in charge of moving a large piece of furniture she looked for some source of light in the place.

She does not want to be a burden for her husband, checking the place, opened one of the drawers of her father-in-law’s desk to find a few candles and small support, to light them use the flint that was next to them.

When he lit the candle he could hear how the furniture that Julio was checking was moving, when he looked at it he was surprised why he could see a metal fence that had stairs that went down into the unknown.

Julio smiled after seeing that Estela had an evening ready to move with some light in the cave and later in the tunnels "Well done Estela, with that, we can avoid being completely dark.

I’m going to carry you since you’re hurt, you don’t have to worry about enemies, the only entrance to the cave or the tunnels is in this room, feel proud and hopefully, you’ll see the place where Rome was born. "

Estela nodded feeling somewhat weak, decided not to pay attention because she had not eaten in the morning, very carefully climbed on Julio’s back and let him carry her carrying all the way

Julio carrying Estela began to go down the stairs, but not before closing the fence to prevent those damn beings from entering and turning his walk into an escape with danger in his rear.

At that moment some hands broke the glass of the window of the office of Augustus, Julio moves faster for close the gate and when he finish get down in the stairs.

Illuminated with the candle that Estela had in her hand, he went down the stairs until he reached a gigantic cave that had in the middle the statue of a wolf nursing two small children were Romulus and Remus.

Julio looked at the statues with some shame "I am forced to withdraw from Rome by unnatural enemies, I just hope you will forgive me for the actions I will take today.

I will return even though it took me months or years, but I will recapture the city from anyone who attempts against the empire. "

After saying that he said goodbye to the statues while little by little the candlelight disappeared through the tunnel leaving only the statue of the founders in the darkness accumulated dust.

The road through the cave was quite calm but the sounds that were heard from outside were disturbing.

Screams for help, or only noises that the bodies made while they were devoured, were heard through the cave, this because the sound filtered through the small vents that were all over the place.

Julio walked for three hours before sitting on a rock to rest and check Estela’s appearance, on her back he could feel her temperature rise because she had a kind of fever that he didn’t know where it came from.

He took Estela and laid her on a cold rock so that her temperature could go down. "You’re going to get well, Estela, we’re going to get out of Rome."

Estela shook her head as she wandered "You know I have to say that I thank my father for allowing me to be with you but I think our paths have to be separated.

I could feel that something inside me is changing, during the last part of the journey I have contained my desire to bite you. "

Estela started crying "I don’t want to become one of those things Julio, please finish me off.

It’s all I want to ask you, my love, maybe in the underworld, we will find the peace we deserve. "

At that moment Estela spit blood from her mouth and with her, few forces touched the face of Julio who was close to her, and little by little Estela’s hand fell without forces "Please..."

Julio with tears on his face drew his short sword and beheaded Estela’s head while crying and screaming in pain.

After crying like a baby he took Estela’s body and head to place it on the floor and cover it with cave stones, on a large stone he used his sword to make a small epitaph for his wife.

Sad and angry Julio went to the exit, he had to go north to be able to reorganize the army in Gaul or Britannia to launch a counterattack against these damn things ...
