Book two of Dreamwalkers.
I freed him from imprisonment only to become his pawn. I, Shandria Langston, last remaining daughter of the leader of the Sunan, was charged with an impossible task. I had to rescue Kraggon Dragmor - sworn enemy of my people - from the death chamber. If I refused, our world as we know it would be destroyed. Oh, but was he happy with my sacrifice? No. Instead of being properly appreciative of this selfless act, of being grateful that I tended to him through a deathly illness, the bastard's kidnapped me. I'm "a symbol of retribution for his people". The man has no heart. I have only one advantage in captivity: I can read Kraggon's thoughts. I know he can't afford to admit that I empathize with his people. He can't afford to admit that I am more beautiful than any woman he's ever seen or allow me to fire his blood with every look...and he can't afford to admit that he'll do anything to save me, that I've become his heart.
