Rebellious slave Rowan is heading for the walled city of Iseky to find her
lovers Ky and Chin Lau. She also need to discover who wiped her memories and
why. Soldier of fortune Kepel Dev is forced to hunt her by any means
necessary.

When Ky rushes to Iseky to try to find Rowan, he meets the flirtatious Hetta
along the way. Meanwhile Chin Lau has escaped the Skolls and their new leader,
Tamin Gutra, but on his way to find Rowan he falls into the hands of
cannibals.

Little do they know slave master Ganwe din Kopese holds the key to all their
futures.

Ganwe din Kopese, known variously as Gan or Kop or Din the Slave Master,
surfaced from a pleasant dream soon after sunrise. He’d been led into
the desert by a troupe of naked slaves to an idyllic oasis where they
frolicked in the sparkling water, the sun gleaming off their flawless skin.
Under a swaying palm, strenuous digging uncovered a huge wooden chest of great
antiquity. They’d opened it, lifting the creaking lid to expose a
veritable king’s ransom. Excitedly they scooped up the glistening gems
— diamonds, rubies, sapphires — and gaily tossed them into the air so they
fell upon his head like the gentlest of summer rain.

Ganwe din Kopese awoke not only with a contented smile, but also a mighty
erection. He surveyed the prominent tent in the silk sheet and grunted in
self-admiration. “Seesee!” he bellowed.

A moment later his wife, third and youngest bearer of that majestic title, ran
full tilt into his room, the folds of her transparent nightdress flowing about
her petite body like a desert whirlwind.

“See to that, will you,” he said casually.

Seesee eagerly lifted the sheet, exposing his firm muscular body, and dove in.
For a few moments he luxuriated in her warm, wet mouth. “Litu,” he
then shouted. “I’m starving!”

From somewhere below — the kitchen he hoped — came an unintelligible reply
from the second bearer of that esteemed title of wife. Gan imagined she was
instructing the slaves in the preparation of some delicacy or other. Litu, he
knew, kept a diligent eye on the latest culinary fashions shed like confetti
by their betters up north. In the adjoining room a baby wailed, and was soon
comforted by Didoy, the first bearer of the revered title of wife, who hummed
a soothing rhyme from her childhood.

The house of Kopese had awakened.

Gan lay back, enjoying Seesee’s skills, noting that her technique had
improved since Didoy’s lesson in the Quad: the art of pleasing a man
with lips, tongue, throat, and fingers. She had finally mastered the timing of
the twist of the shaft as she withdrew her mouth from his swollen organ before
plunging downward so that her dainty nose was bent against his hard, muscular
stomach. She held there for a count of five before slowly withdrawing. As she
drew her mouth away, she wrapped her dainty fingers around his shaft to apply
the screwing action that gave him an inordinate amount of pleasure. He sighed
with satisfaction as the dream of buried jewels faded like a summer mist.

Litu, wearing a flimsy robe shaded in jade, entered with a tray. The smell of
freshly baked bread, melting ocyx butter, strips of seasoned meat, and her
sweet perfume caressed his nostrils. Balancing the tray expertly on one hand,
she used the other to put an extra pillow under Gan’s raised head and
shoulders. Then she swept off the sheet, positioned the tray on his flat
belly. Seesee adjusted her position so she could tongue his ball sac while
Litu knelt beside him to take on the shaft and head duties while he ate.

Gan watched appreciatively as his second wife opened her small, bow-shaped
mouth as wide as she could to take in the thick head of his cock. He thought
of it as the dome of a massive mushroom, and was secretly pleased that it
posed a constant challenge to Litu, who eagerly strove to fit it all in. He
took a generous bite of his bread, sending ocyx butter dribbling from the
corner of his mouth. He almost bit his tongue when Seesee suddenly sucked one
of his balls deep into her mouth.

“Easy, Seesee. Easy.”

“My apologies, husband,” she slurred after popping the delicate
egg from between her generous lips. A shiny thread of saliva hung between her
mouth and his tight scrotum, and with a giggle she slurped it up as she
resumed her wifely duty.

Gan smiled contentedly. What a perfect household I have built, he thought.
Three perfect gems, for that was how he often thought of his wives, to cater
to my every urge.

He finished his breakfast with a cup of warm wine flavoured with huj, an
expensive spice he imported from the Northern Reach. The slaves from that
region carried the bales of the crushed seeds on their heads as they trudged
their way to the Auction House.

That reminded him of this day’s tasks: the bidding for docile but
intelligent slaves who could be taught. The House of Kopese was known across
the world for the quality of his bedroom and household slaves. “Only the
best from Kopese,” was his watchword, and all the prestigious houses of
the city came to him. He excelled in teaching the art of pleasing men and
women of refinement, and his slaves were keenly sought after, garnering top
prices.

“Enough, Seesee, Litu. Enough, I say. I need all my stamina
today.” He laughed at his unintended rhyme.

His two wives, however, pouted. Though they knew the demands of his day and
evening, they didn’t like being denied their morning coupling.

“Don’t look at me like that. It’s not the end of the
world.”

“It is,” Seesee said. “It’s been a whole week.”

“Has it?”

“You know it has. My cunny is aching. It’s wet all the
time.” She screwed up her face. “You don’t love me as much
as Litu.”

“Now, don’t be like that. I love you all the same. Didoy, Litu,
and Seesee. All the same.”

“But you’ve had Litu three times in the last four nights.”

“I wish you wouldn’t keep count,” Litu said.
“It’s not my fault –”

“Litu. Stop it!” Gan snapped. “Just this minute I was
congratulating myself on such a harmonious household, and you go and spoil it
by bickering.”

“I’m sorry, husband.”

“Now, Seesee. Remind me when I come home that it is your turn.
Happy?” She smiled at Litu triumphantly. Shaking his head good-naturedly
he chucked his pretty wife under her chin. “Now, is my bath
ready?”

“I’d just ordered the heating of the water when you called,”
Seesee said.

“Then go. See that it is ready for me.”

She stuck out her tongue at Litu and launched herself off the bed. After
she’d skipped from the room, Gan took Litu’s hand and drew her to
him for a kiss. She licked the ocyx butter from his chin.

“How old is she? Remind me.”

“Twenty.”

“And how old are you?”

“Two and twenty.”

“Then don’t goad her. Act your age.”

She pouted again.

“Has it really been three times in four nights?”

She nodded, and a sly smile escaped her contrite expression.

“There must be a reason for that,” he said in a questioning voice.
“I wonder what the reason could be.”

“Because…”

He silenced her with a kiss. “I love you all the same. Remember
that.”

“Yes, husband.”

“Now take this tray to the kitchen, and then go help Didoy with the
children.”

“Yes, husband.”

“First, find my robe. It’s a bit chilly this morning. And my
slippers. Where are my slippers?”

An hour later, bathed, perfumed, and dressed in his finest, Gan was farewelled
by Didoy, who handed him his ebony staff as she did every day.

He kissed her, then stood back in silent admiration of her beauty, and his
luck.

“You do this every morning,” she chided.

Her face was colouring in a blush fit for a maiden, not of a wife of ten years
with three children and a household to manage. “I stop to thank the gods
for the blessing they have bestowed on me. Is that so grievous a crime?”

“Being late will be a very great one if you miss bidding on the best
prospects. The High Warden put in an order for six, no less: four cocks and
two cunts.”

“Where would I be without you, I wonder.” He kissed her again.
“Six, you say? What in the world does he do with them?”
