Descrip­tions

Jared est un esclave sexuel entravé par l'Anneau d'obéissance. Après neuf ans de souffrance, il a tué sa maîtresse et s'est échappé. Hélas, il a vite été rattrapé et revendu. Acheté par une reine notoirement dangereuse, Jared craint de partager le destin mystérieux de ses autres esclaves, qui ont disparu à jamais. Mais la Dame grise n'est peut-être pas celle qu'elle semble être et Jared se retrouve vite face à un cruel dilemme : la liberté ou l'honneur.

In this engaging story of Jared, a Red-Jeweled Warlord and unwilling pleasure slave, Bishop returns to the world of her Black Jewels trilogy (Daughter of the Blood, Heir to the Shadows, and Queen of the Darkness). Jared, who has murdered his owner and attempted escape, is recaptured and sold to the mysterious Gray Lady. It soon becomes clear that Jared's new queen is not what she seems to be, and he joins with his fellow slaves--all of whom hide their own secrets--to protect the Gray Lady. During her desperate flight from Dorothea SaDiablo, the Black Widow intent on destroying her and claiming her territory, Jared comes to terms with his own demons and discovers what it means to be truly bonded to a queen.
