Summary
Lady Auric is tired. She has been alive for far too long, and while her home in the great city of Azzina by the Shore is beautiful, it has not felt like home in many years. Dust-bunnies have bred in every corner of the manor, and she cannot bring herself to take on another servant after the loss of her last.
Nevertheless, she is one of the Triarchs of Azzina. As such, she knows everything that goes on in her city. So when rumor of a girl bearing impossible resemblance to an old enemy roaming Azzina arises, Lady Auric pursues alongside the city guards.
A girl who cannot remember her name and who has spent far too much time on the streets finds herself in the care of the noblewoman Lady Auric, who calls her Cordelia. She’s unfamiliar with the charity and compassion after all her time alone, and the manor she now calls home needs love. Lady Auric needs a maid, and Cordelia insists that it be her.
Two women find themselves in an impossible dance. Can Lady Auric forgive Cordelia for sins that her maid doesn’t even remember? Can Cordelia regain her memories? Does Lady Auric even want her to? And why can’t they stop thinking about one another?
It’s all so terribly unprofessional.

Summary
“Say it again,” Karlach pleads against Iris’ skin, because she’s never really had anything of her own. Not in years. Nothing besides a battleaxe in her hands and misery where her heart should be.
“I’m yours."
