A satyr waiting at the edge of a dying grove for someone worth staying for. Five standalone stories of claiming, courtship, and creatures who don't do anything halfway.

It does not know how to hold another being without growing into them. The first night the roots take Cade’s ankles. By the fourth night they are inside him.

The Minotaur's Tribute. Some tributes are given. This one might choose to stay. Every three years, the village sends someone into the dark. Everyone knows they don't come back. Kaes doesn't expect mercy when the gate shuts behind him. He expects horns, a landslide of a voice, and bones past the third turn.

He couldn't pull the trigger. Kestrel Ashwood has spent eighteen months becoming a hunter—training her body, sharpening her aim, and burying her grief under a single purpose: kill the wolf that tore out her brother's throat.

Eleven years ago, a dragon killed my grandmother and vanished into legend. I've hunted her ghost across three provinces ever since. I finally found her—and she isn't who I was looking for. Sable is older, sharper, and utterly unbothered by the blade I put to her throat. She's also the last confirmed dragon left breathing, and she let herself be caught on purpose. Now the guild that trained me is closing in on both of us, and I have a choice: finish the hunt I built my whole life around, or burn that life down for a woman who was never the one who took everything from me.

When his family's scandal finally breaks into public view, there's no hiding behind money or charm this time. Everyone wants to talk about the Orlov name. No one's asking about him.

He was ordered to kill me if the treaty failed. Instead, he took two arrows meant for my chest. I crossed into orc territory to save a treaty everyone else had already given up on, armed with nothing but strange languages and a court that wouldn't miss me if I didn't come back. What I didn't expect was Krugash: war-captain, executioner-in-waiting, and the only man in either territory who ever looked at me like I was worth protecting instead of using.

The sharp-tongued barista sees through his carefully ordered routine with unsettling ease, asking the one question he's spent years avoiding. What begins as stolen conversations over coffee soon ignites into a forbidden affair that pulls Adam into a hidden world of luxury, temptation, and dangerous desires. Behind an unmarked door, pleasure is only the beginning.

Viktor has always known exactly what he owes—six years of quiet, unquestioning loyalty to the woman who gave him a place to belong. When a voice from the life he left behind resurfaces, calling in a debt older than anything he's built since, Viktor has to choose between the past that shaped him and the present he's only just learned how to want. Lena won't ask him to choose. That's exactly the problem.

Mara didn't mean to go under. She just meant to sit at the edge of the water one more night, the way she had every night since March, and let the cold remind her she was still breathing. She didn't expect the water to answer back. What pulls her down isn't a current — it's something old, vast, and achingly patient, a creature the town only half-jokes about warning newcomers away from. He doesn't want her dead. He wants her kept, and the longer she spends in his cave beneath the tide, the less she wants to be anywhere else.

The club kept one rule above all others: what's shared in the room is never a weapon. Now someone's breaking it — and he has years of leverage on all of them. Elodie, Adam, Lena, Viktor, and Dmitri thought the hardest secrets were already behind them. Then the calls start — each one aimed at a different vulnerability, each one signed with the same quiet threat: expose yourselves, or Julian Cross will do it for you. Lena knows exactly who he is.
