Yelena also decided to learn how to fight with the help of Ari, Janco and Maren, so she can protect herself. Valek, worrying he would have to train a new food taster when Yelena dies, protects Yelena from Brazell’s men and lets her stay with him in his suite.
The story picks up when the father of the man Yelena murdered, Brazell, finds out that she wasn’t hanged and sends men to kill her instead. Now Yelena has to come to him every morning to drink an antidote that only he has or else she’ll die. She then trains under Valek, Commander’s right hand and an assassin, and to make sure Yelena wouldn’t try to escape, Valek feeds her a poison called Butterfly Dust. The job isn’t really that easy and safe, tasting the Commander’s food for poison, but Yelena knew it was better than facing the noose so she accepted it. She was actually a +convicted murderer but was given a life-changing offer to become the next food taster. The book follows Yelena’s life when she becomes the Commander’s food taster.
