Three Wishes and a Miracle

Aelred hasn't been outside the monastery since his parents donated him as a child. He knows he shouldn't want more than this life of prayer, but he dreams of the far-off lands spoken of in the Bible. When a wealthy patron leaves a chest of treasures to be catalogued, Aelred is fascinated by their beauty. Most beautiful of all is the strange man who appears from nowhere and claims to be a djinn ... with wishes for Aelred!

Aelred is sure the djinn is a demon sent to lure him into damnation. There is nothing a monk ought to wish for. He has no use for riches. And he certainly shouldn't wish for earthly pleasures. He shouldn't even be thinking about the djinn's offers, magical or carnal. But not thinking about the djinn grows more and more difficult as they spend time together, and the djinn's stories awaken Aelred's longing for adventure ... and for love.

The djinn tells Aelred he can have what he desires. But are his promises truth or temptation?
