Prince Jasim dreams of freedom, so when his mother commands him to select a bride, he flees the palace. Wandering the marketplace, he’s rescued by a beautiful woman. Ali is far from a pampered princess - she wields a blade and has an even sharper tongue, and Prince Jasim is entranced by her.
Ali can’t resist the pull she feels towards the hapless stranger, who introduces himself as Jase. But before they can explore their connection, the royal guards find them and arrest Ali for unknowingly kidnapping the prince.
Back at the palace, the queen decrees there will be a marriage contest. A heartbroken Jasim resigns himself to his fate, but to his surprise, one contestant, Lady Alexandria, reminds him of the girl from the market. Jasim finds himself attracted to her with the same intensity, and when she’s threatened, he becomes obsessed with protecting her.
But the queen’s power-hungry advisor recognizes Alexandria for who she really is, the pickpocket who stole an enchanted ring that contains a jinn. Ali must control the chaos-causing jinn while keeping her power away from those who would destroy the queendom, all while navigating a fraudulent relationship with the prince she can’t resist.
