Not to mention, you had the audacity to imply my performance was not up to your standard.\u201d I stifled my laugh as I unpinned my tikka and ran my fingers through my long wavy hair, and Zehan homed in on the action. I lifted one shoulder, wanting nothing more than to face-plant onto the luscious silk sheets. \u201cIf I\u2019m going to pretend to be your mistress, you\u2019ll have to deal with whatever I say outside our room.\u201d<\/p>\n

I should be more concerned with this new arrangement, but I wasn\u2019t. It made sense, and I didn\u2019t need Shama prying more into my plans. Zehan closed the distance between us. He lifted my chin, assessing me. \u201cPerhaps I should give you a demonstration so you can remember it whenever you’re speaking of us outside these four walls.\u201d<\/p>\n

He slowly trailed one of his fingers down my bare neck. \u201cThough, something tells me you won\u2019t be able to keep up.\u201d Blood rushed to my head. This was headed in a dangerous direction. The soft caress of his fingers juxtaposed the roughness of his voice. I drew my face away from him. Defiant. \u201cPlease. I\u2019m the most famous courtesan in Tyaga. My reputation doesn\u2019t only stem just from my ability to dance.\u201d<\/p>\n

My voice didn\u2019t have the bravado I hoped for. I tugged off my gold bangles, tossing them onto the vanity. The only metal left on my person were my payals around my ankles and the gold nose ring and attached chain that hooked into my hair. A small smile tugged at the corner of his lips. \u201cEzhil is right. You fit this realm perfectly.\u201d \u201cI do not,\u201d I seethed. Any association with this realm was not a compliment. \u201cAnd for the record, Ezhil was the one to indicate I was your pastime.<\/p>\n

I assumed you have that kind of relationship with your previous Chosen. All I did was let Lobha and Shama believe it.\u201d Zehan studied me with half-lidded eyes. The moonlight from the window hit him at the perfect angle. Staring at him too long felt hypnotic, like he could see both the light and dark parts of my soul.<\/p>\n
