RELUCTANT CONCUBINE

To escape punishment, Tera, a maiden healer sold to barbarians must hide the truth: she has not yet come into her healing powers. Born into a much gentler world, she struggles to survive in a land of savage warlords and their cruel concubines. When ancient prophecies begin to come to pass, can the healer-slave save the realm and awaken the High Lord’s heart?

           

Excerpt from Reluctant Concubine by Dana Marton
     
     “We must stand together.” His gaze roamed my face, his voice soft, as if he was already saying farewell forever.
     And I found I could not accept that. I pushed the robe off my shoulders and watched as his gaze followed its path to the ground. I grabbed the bottom of my short Shahala tunic and pulled it over my head.
     My skin glowed in the semidarkness like a moonflower. I heard his sharp intake of breath, every other sound drowned out by the loud rush of blood in my ears.
     “Have you come to offer your virginity for good luck?” His voice was as thick as mosan-berry syrup. And then after an eternity, he half turned from me. “We had enough sacrifices already.”
     I swallowed and forced myself to speak before I lost my courage. “I came to offer my heart.”
     He turned back slowly. “Tera.” He whispered my name, then gathered me into his strong arms. And then he kissed me.
