The Story

 

Natir's life has been one of abuse and slavery, and it’s about to get even harder; she's been sold in a new land to a ruthless man, Cahal, and once her master gets bored with his new property she can only expect the darkest fate for her and her daughter, like all of Cahal's slaves to come before her.

 

Things take a turn for the worse when Cahal’s half-brother, Alfred, who ousted Cahal as Earl of the Toic, starts to show an interest in her.

 

Sensing an opportunity for revenge, Cahal changes his plans for Natir and forces her instead to become a sacrifice-pawn in an assassination plot to take back his throne.

 

With her daughter’s life at stake, Natir can only oblige to her master’s wishes, but she will soon discover that Alfred’s interest in her is nothing like what she had expected, and that the madness which reigns in him is about to unleash a very dangerous side of her which she herself never knew she had.
