A covert scouting party is sent from a neighboring land to the kingdom of Inemor. Unfortunately they are attacked on the road leaving all dead except for one. A young boy and a healer take Alejandro to their small village and save his life. Alejandro takes on his mission alone once he recovers and quietly enters Inemor. Luck is still not with him however when soldiers grab him and force him into the slave pens with several hundred others.

Because of his looks Alejandro is taken from the pens by none other than the king’s own Slave Master, Kedmund. In Alejandro’s homeland relations between men are strictly forbidden but here in Inemor he will become the sexual plaything of King Garrass.

Over time Alejandro finds himself torn between finding a way to escape and return home or continue to explore the pleasures of the body with his master. He dreams of spending time in Kedmund’s bed though the Slave Master never takes his own charges to bed. There is no way that Alejandro can leave without tasting the Slave Master at least once.

High drama with a near death experience, mistaken identity, and the discovery of an unknown desire follow the main character in Slave Master’s Choice. More a character driven story of ill fated luck and conspiracies than a sexual journey, Slave Master’s Choice focuses on the characters rather than going into depth about sexual encounters. Everything revolves around Alejandro and his yearnings for Kedmund. Slave Master’s Choice offers well drawn characters in a suspense filled intrigue.
