Widowed by a violent conquest, imprisoned as a spoil of war, spirited Lady Elienne encounters a formidable visitation inside her locked cell.

Taroith said, "You are foolish to contest me."
"Spoken like a true and loyal Master of the League," Faisix sneered. With the grace of a panther, he stepped across the tangled wreckage of his study. "If you want the woman, ?ght for her."
"Strike first, then," Taroith said softly. "And remember whose choice initiated this conflict... "
