Ruled by Magic (Ruled by Magic #1)
Zara J. Black

To earn my freedom, I must submit.
I’m facing years in prison. My crime? Exposing the sordid secrets of Dexia’s magical elite. In my oppressive territory, mages hold all the power, magical tech is outlawed, and sexuality is repressed.
At my sentencing I expect a bored judge, but instead I get a crowd, reporters, and a handsome mage everyone seems to fear. He makes me kneel at his feet, and offers me a deal. Serve six months as his plaything, and leave a free woman. Shame burns through me, but I accept.
He's Leopold Rahl, Dexia's new Lord Commander, the strongest mage in living memory. He's hunted me for months. He means to see me punished.
And I’ve fallen right into his trap.
