Sheik
“She was one of several women being held in Kadeem el Haka’s harem, awaiting the slave auction, which was to be held on the next market day. Haroun had wasted little time in delivering her and the other prisoners to the slave master in Fez. A deal was quickly struck, and Haroun accepted the money in Jamal’s name and hastened to Paradise to await Jamal’s return.
Zara and other women in the harem had been fed, bathed, pampered and dressed in rich silks and brocades. Obviously these women were inte...nded for their masters’ beds, to be indulged and spoiled and treated like possessions. Was that the fate Jamal intended for her? Zara wondered. Allah help her should another man lay hands on her. She would fight tooth and nail and gladly suffer the consequences.
With nothing to do but eat and sleep, Zara had too much time to think. She recalled Jamal’s anger when he’d sent her away with Haroun. His smile had been cold and dangerous and did not reach his dark, glittering eyes. And it broke her heart.MoreLess
