βI was educated at Oxford β though only money gained me entry and not academic ability for which capacity I have none β and it was there that my dislike of the English, and especially their men, turned gradually to hatred and a need to have one of my very own that I may torment, dominate and, eventually, domesticate one of the breed. In short, I wanted a slave. An English slave. More than this, I wanted an English slave who would hate both his slavery and me but be conditioned, just the same, to obey and revere his Arab mistress.β The spoiled daughter of a wealthy and ruthless Arab businessman decides that what she wants most is an English chattel when she returns home after completing her studiesβ¦her handsome, married, and faithless Oxbridge tutor fits the bill perfectly. Heβs an infidel. Sheβll call him βdogβ.
