She made her decision. Now she has to live with it. Durkhanai
Miangul sealed her lover's fate when she sent him through a door
where either a lady or a lion awaited him. But her decision was
only the beginning of her troubles. Durkhanai worries that she
might not be the queen her people need or deserve when conflict
threatens her kingdom. Her presumed-dead father comes back with a
vengeance and wishes she join him in his cause. But her family's
denial of his revenge forces Durkhanai to take matters into her own
hands and she must decide whether to follow the traditions of her
forefathers or forge a new path on her own.
"He sunk his teeth into her heart and she let him." As crown
princess of Marghazar, Durkhanai Miangul will do anything to
protect her people and her land. When her grandfather, the Badshah,
is blamed for a deadly assault on the summit of neighboring
leaders, the tribes call for his head. To assuage cries for war,
the Badshah opens Marghazar's gates to foreigners for the first
time in centuries, in a sign of good faith. His family has three
months to prove their innocence, or they will all have war. As
Durkhanai races to solve who really orchestrated the attack,
ambassadors from the neighboring tribal districts arrive at court,
each with their own intentions for negotiations, each with their
own plans for advantage. When a mysterious illness spreads through
the villages and the imperialists push hard on her borders,
Durkhanai must dig deep to become more than just a beloved
princess—she must become a queen. To distract Durkhanai from it
all is Asfandyar Afridi, the wry ambassador who tells her outright
he is a spy, yet acts as though he is her friend—or maybe even
something more.
