The year is 1870, and Sarah has been sold. Plucked from the grim charity of a London workhouse, she is transported to the heat of the Sultanate of Qamar. She is not there to be a wife, but a vessel. Sultan Rashid Al-Aman requires an heir to secure his dynasty, and he has purchased Sarah to provide it. Rashid is a man of absolute power and terrifying discipline. He demands not just Sarah’s body, but her complete submission. Through a regimen of strict breeding protocols, public discipline, and the heavy weight of golden collars, he seeks to break her English spirit and mold her into the perfect instrument for his lineage.
