Nova Roma

Chapter 43 - One day with Hellena in Origin Civitatem

Hellena woke up like many other days when the first rays of the sun touched her face, she stretched out her arms and could see her husband and her two babies at her sides

"Little naughty ones," He said while with a smile he looked at them

He lifted Yuma and Erendida very carefully, they woke up and smiled at the sight of their mother and did not hesitate to put their eyes of "I have Hunger’s breast", Hellena freed her breasts to be able to breastfeed her children, after feeding her children little ones gave them a small pat on the back so that they belched and could rest again.

When her children fell asleep again Flavio woke up just as Hellena enjoys the sensation of stretching her hands when she woke up, when she opened her eyes she saw her wife cooing as her two sleeping little ones helped her and took them to their cribs so that they slept another little, after this he gave her a big kiss and they bathed together.

When they finished bathing, Flavio had to leave because he had to check the paperwork of the empire and she was left alone, but that did not matter to her since her husband was working and today it was a shopping day

Flavio implemented a method of profits for the imperial family from alcoholic beverages to desserts and articles for women as cosmetics, among many more in this way the money of the empire for personal expenses would never be touched. It is the first rule to prevent corruption from destroying the empire.

Hellena had unlimited money since Flavio gives her control of family finances, of course, she is a responsible woman but she is also a woman and she likes to buy great things an inheritance of blood from her Cleopatra mother.

He prepared a procession for his safety and his purchases, he also took his main servant Lilith and his children to Hellena does not like to take cow’s milk because of his bad memories of his childhood so he prefers to always feed them.

When they left the walls of the palace they did it in an armored carriage and quite comfortable since it occupied the latest technology in alloy steel springs.

Hellena rarely asked her husband for technologies such as steel or alloys, she preferred to ask about makeup or life-saving items such as bras that prevented their breasts from hurting the back and give more firmness to the chest or sanitary napkins They prevent clothes from getting stained when they are in their menstrual cycle.

The further down the avenue, life in Origin Civitatem was much crazier was normal to see merchants, children, and people, in general, making their lives, also could be seen in black uniform some guards who are responsible for patrol the streets and maintain order They are the police of the city.

On the way the carriage stopped as a policeman marked the stop to allow a group of Semihumans children could come to his school the imperial school a Great construction that took as the "Mürwik Academy", Of course, it is not yet completely built but began to provide service for elementary school children.

Hellena was ordered to stop her carriage in the first place she planned to visit, it was the workshop of an important marble sculptor, for the Romans the beauty of the statues is important since you are capturing the beauty of the human body on a rock canvas, for Nova Roma it is not the exception either.

"How about Emilio, I come to see how my order goes," Said hellena with a smile

Emilio sweat cold "If your empress, please follow me"

Hellena followed Emilio to his patio where there was a large block of marble in which he was being worked by three sculptors, in the sculpture you could see Flavio loading Erendida and his side Hellena carrying Yuma, this statue is going to be placed in the gardens of the palace as the main source, after seeing that they had a good progress decided to leave a bag with gold coins as a gift of good faith to continue doing their job well, the sculptors wept for joy and thanked the empress.

The tour continued the next point to visit was another workshop of a girl who carved jade, jade in the southern part of Mexico is a jade of good quality that the Mayans have been working for generations, in the workshop Hellena bought some jade brooches with Gold inlays for the hair that was tried and tested her little Erendida, for Yuma she bought a nice bracelet with jade.

After this they went to a clothing store despite the fact that Flavio dominates the market there are many artisans who make their beautiful designs, not to mention that Maya clothing with colorful embroidery is very striking and quite cool for the heat that there is in the peninsula From Yucatan, I buy enough dresses, underwear, clothes for babies and a beautiful guayabera with gold thread for her husband.

When it was ten o’clock in the morning they went to a restaurant where they had a cocktail of shrimp with ketchup one of Flavio’s inventions that flavored tomato-based food, there was also a crab with butter a delight and as a drink nothing like a delicious water of coconut for the babies was a porridge of boiled carrot and breast milk.

During the afternoon they went through Jewelry, Clothing, and other stores, the carriage stopped being enough and sent to bring another, after traveling all over the city decided to visit his ancestor Anubis, you should never lose touch with the family that always said Flavio.

In the pyramid of the sale was built a temple to Anubis, hellena went up with Lilith and her little ones to see the "Grandfather" as he named Hellena an Anubis.

Hellena and her little ones saw a rather small but majestic temple because the city was seen at a distance when it entered the temple time stopped and Anubis appeared.

"What can I do for you, my daughter?" Anubis said with his Chacal face full of joy

"Nothing grandpa comes to visit you with the children and bring you some pulque an alcoholic beverage brought by some merchants from the north"

Anubis spoke with her "granddaughter" while enjoying the company of her little great-grandchildren and the soft but delicious taste of pulque, they talked for hours until the children fell asleep, Hellena said goodbye to her grandfather and returned to the palace where she would eat delicious food.

After the banquet he was reading one of the novels that his husband made called "Titan" It was on a boat that Roman who was sinking in the Mediterranean Sea for a strange reason and the survivors died slowly in its waters, until they were rescued by a Titan that appeared by the place.

Time passed and when Flavio came to review issues of the empire gave a big kiss to his wife and she told him what he had done during the day, at the end, they had dinner and went to sleep for tomorrow to start a new day.
