she must be seen with each of the mazoi. a lie must not be caught coming from her. arsenio must be protected. she would not risk the bloodshed that would surely follow his fangs, and then that of pharaoh.
when tamar thought of him, her pulse quickened. her body recalled the never-forgotten day; she allowed herself to thrill for a moment, aching for him again.
and then she pulled herself from a darkened corner of the wellspring, dried herself until damp, and slipped through the corridors.
she returned to the place where they slept, seeking @Sihaya. in her mouth the plump remains of a bird. tamar steeled herself. "mazoi," she greeted softly when she had discovered him. "the queen has sent me to serve you."
