Nick and his intended Master, Todd Ruger, a sentry of the territories, have grown up knowing that they were pledged to this bond. They¿re looking forward to the ritual with both excitement and trepidation¿it¿s something they¿ve prepared for their entire lives. But New Colorado¿s institution of slavery has made dangerous enemies on a frontier fraught with trouble, and they are unprepared for the trials their new relationship will face.
