The Centaur in My Forest: Sweet Monsters (Coveted by the Centaur)

I am far from home.

I am injured.

And I will not reach safety unless I seek the regal centaur’s aid.

He is a monster in some ways. But he is also a man.

There are rumors about centaurs, though, rumors that they expect payment in kind in exchange for a debt…

The one moon month of my life he demands does not seem so high a price.

But then I ask him what he would expect of me during that time.

“Anything,” he says. “Anything I desire.”

The Centaur in My Forest is a dark and steamy short story set in the Coveted prey universe.
