In the heart of an opulent Arabian palace, where incense weaves through the air like whispered secrets and silk curtains veil the most illicit of desires, Lady Zafira reigns over her private world. A widow of high status, she is bound by the laws of men but ruled by the fire in her blood.
Her most forbidden craving? Malik—a servant boy no longer a boy, but a man, his body sculpted by years of quiet obedience. She has watched him grow, his gaze flickering with something deeper than mere submission. In a land where a woman’s pleasure is spoken of only in hushed tones, Zafira dares to seek hers—fully, unapologetically, dangerously.
When a stolen moment in the baths ignites the first spark, Zafira draws Malik into a world of sensual discovery, where the weight of power shifts between them in wicked ways. Beneath the moonlit domes and behind doors only she holds the keys to, he will learn the art of pleasing her—not as a master to a slave, but as something far darker, far sweeter.
But desire, once unchained, cannot be tamed so easily. And when lust transforms into something deeper, something more treacherous than their secret nights, Zafira must decide—does she dare break every rule of her world for the one man who has always belonged to her, body and soul?
