Description
Alexandra lived a quiet life in her village, spending her days dreaming of the world’s wonders… Until the day her home was raided and she was captured by slave traders. Unable to bear her new fate as a slave, Alexandra attempts to escape but is quickly caught -- then a handsome merchant named Mateus Lascaris saves her, in many ways...
He buys her, promising her true freedom by educating her and elevating her position instead of imprisoning her. Through his kindness, Alexandra falls for him, but fate has another suitor in store for her: Suleiman the Great, Emperor of the Ottoman Empire! In a great political and social struggle, will Alexandra be able to set all their lives and their hearts free?

One thing is for sure: these desert princes are so hot, you’ll have to fan yourself to keep cool!
Chie Shinohara
Chie Shinohara is an award-winning shoujo mangaka best known for Red River (Sora wa Akai Kawa no Hotori). She has twice received the Shogakukan Manga Award for shoujo, in 1987 for Yami no Purple Eye and in 2001 for Red River.
She indulges a lot in horror-fantasy stories, putting a strong focus on plot rather than character. Her art is clean and action-intensive, often dipped in an eerie romantic vibe. She is particularly good at drawing flying or floating stances - perhaps that's why water and liquid usually take center stage in her creations.
