Torvan knows what he wants in a kajira. Unfortunately, his purse doesn't agree. After days of being outbid, the young Gorean scribe has settled on a slave who falls short of his standards—but might yet prove useful. He expects obedience, grace, and devotion. What he doesn't admit is that he wants to be adored. He'll coax affection from her with teasing smiles, morsels from his fingers, and little gifts of beads and bells—then remind her precisely where she belongs if she grows too comfortable. Please him, and earn his favor. Disappoint him, and discover just how particular your new Master can be.
