I managed it by being a thief and stealing crumbs to survive. Until one day I stole from the wrong minotaur. He hunted me down. Chased me until I relented. Then he made me his in every way imaginable. I never thought I’d steal a minotaur’s heart. But as my heart starts to open, the world around us seeks to take the treasure we have. Thankfully, my minotaur never backs down from a challenge. Not from his people. His gods. Or me. And for the first time, the person I love doesn’t let me go. He fights for me. Because to him, I’m more than just a thief. More than just a partner in crime. But a person to love. Author's Note: This minotaur monster romance will have a HEA and has no cheating!
