Sir Thomas of Gravenor’s return from successfully crusading in foreign lands is rewarded with a lavish banquet held in his honor by the king. The dashing young knight gets more than he bargains for though, when the beautiful Queen Eleanor slips into his bed-chamber after the event is over. She complains of her husband’s drinking and lack of prowess when it comes to sex. Thomas is quick to realize that he’s no longer the heroic conqueror, but the submissive conquered, as he yields to the seductive charms of his queen.
