Chapter 52
MISTRESS SINAI
Mistress Sinai rose from the bed, completely naked, and began untangling her hair. She sat in a chair, gazing at her reflection in the metal mirror.
“You are so sweet, Sinai. I wish we could do this more often, the male figure reclining upon her bed uttered, his eyes tracing her every movement.
“You are over a thousand years old, Daryl. You should not have sich a large appetite anymore,” Sinal said in a bored tone.
The Lord of Trade, chuckled. “I’m still as young as ever. How is going with acquiring the land beyond Crystal Waters?”
“He still refuses to release it. Sinai’s veins pulsated with anger. The thought always upset her.
Grand Lord Vladya did not want to give up that land to her. Her Daemon might be the love of her life, but even she had accepted the fact that he was no more.
It was only Lord Vladya who clung on. And Sinai had to suffer the consequences. I want that land to be mine already “Perhaps you should consider presenting your case to Grand Lord Ottai and Grand Lord Zaiper, as he suggested? Maybe one of them will support you and help convince him.”
Mistress Sinai snorted. “Let’s face it. Lord Zaiper may be the second in line for the throne after my Daemon, but everyone knows who the people respect and fear more. Who they would choose as their king if given a choice. Whose words are treated as gold and must be obeyed.”
She turned and looked at her lover. “Even if Lord Zaiper and Ouai side with me, they cannot force Lord Vladya to relinquish the land if he doesn’t wish to.”
“True, Lord Daryl conceded. “And there are rumors that even Lord Zaiper himself fears Lord Vladya because Vladya is much stronger. If a duel were to determine the next grand king, Lord Zaiper might lose.”
All of this was of no help to Sinai Why did it have to be Grand Lord Vladya who was Grand King Daemonikai’s best friend? Why not Zaiper?
Then, acquiring that land would have been easier for her. All she would have needed to do was sleep with Zaiper, and it would be hers.
With Vladya, it was even more difficult. That lord had no hobbies, no particular interests. Nothing.
And he was selective about his bed partners.
Males in Urai would do anything to be with Sinai. They love her But not Vladya.
Sinai had tried for over two hundred years to seduce him, but all her efforts had been in vain. Why must he be the best friend?
Moments later, she emerged from her chambers fully dressed, with her two handmaidens trailing behind her. Frustration. still hummed through her as she made her way out of the fortress on her way to the market.
People bowed and made way for her as she passed.
I need to purchase that trending silk today. I don’t care if I have to buy it with gold coins she snapped at her handmaidens.
“Yes, my lady”

Chapter 52
“Oh, if it isn’t Mistress Sinal, a voice emanated from behind her Familiar. Irritating.
Sinai pivoted to face her intruder. “Mistress Gaille.” Both women inclined their heads in acknowledgment. “What brings you to this part of town this morning?
The exasperatingly beautiful mistress offered a smile. “I was on my way to the market. My lord has bestowed upon me a generous number of coins this morning. Ukrae bless his heart, don’t know what to do with such extravagant gifts.”
Mistress Gaille was one among many mistresses of Grand Lord Zaiper, but regrettably, she was his favorite.
Sinai abhorred the manner in which she always ‘smiled‘ while boasting about it. “I am certain he bestowed similar gifts upon. your fellow mistresses, Gaille.”
The lady’s grin broadened. “Never to the same extent as he does upon me, Sinai. Is that not true, ladies?” She turned her gaze towards her two personal handmaidens, who nodded with great enthusiasm, their expressions utterly blissful.
Sinai barely refrained from rolling her eyes. I have no time for this. “Well, I bid you a pleasant morning, Mistress Gaille. May fortune favor you in the market. She raised her elaborate gown slightly and took a step away.
“Wait. Have you heard the latest rumors circulating within the confines of Ravenshadow?” Mistress Gaille interjected with her usual chirpy tone.
urge to turn around and Sinai should have known there was something amiss in that smile this morning. She resisted the face Mistress Gaille directly. “What rumor has caught your attention?” she ked, her curiosity piqued.
