Destiny demands a sacrifice . . . She's more than just a scullery maid.He's nothing but a steward.Surely not enough to distract an ascending queen.Zahra always knew what her destiny was, and even without the gift of sight, she knows the path she must tread to achieve it.

And if that sacrifice is a trusting mortal maid named Salma, so be it.Whatever the cost, Zahra will do what needs to be done. Carefully, though, to avoid the ever-watchful eye of the young steward who has foolishly become enamored of her and thinks he sees something that is not there; something that is lost forever.
