Generally speaking the question would be more pertinent if the question was "Why did slaves live in fear of their Roman masters". However,

most slaves were loyal to their masters and in return, a wise slave owner would treat his slaves with decency. Punishment for a slave for killing or injuring his master meant death. Good behavior might mean freedom at some point. Romans had great faith in their slaves ( general statement) and in some cases Greek slaves were assigned to tutor a Roman's children.

Roman slaves were always trying to start a rebellion and some would attack and kill their owners. During one of the slaves' greatest rebellions, Crassus executed more than 70,00 slaves.
