  Princess Ella arrives at Tarek the magician’s forest retreat, desperate for his help against the wicked Sorceress Tabitha, who is aggressively attacking the land of her birth and those whom she loves dearly.
   Tarek, the recluse, is reluctant to give Ella any assistance, as he has sworn to himself an oath to not get directly involved in the affairs of men.
  Ella knows she must find a way to convince Tarek to her way of thinking instead and get him to come back with her to fight on her side at all costs!
  Sensing that Tarek has some liking for her, she decides to make a confident bold move; she makes a sacrifice and offering to him. She will give herself to Tarek and let him take her as he will, if it means he will change his mind.
  But Ella is to find that what was meant to be a sacrifice on her part changes to something much more pleasurable, as she becomes eager to submit to Tarek’s every demand!
