During Mardi Gras, anything can happen—even being auctioned to a monstrous alpha who refuses to let you go.

Mardi Gras was supposed to be my last wild night of freedom—one final reckless adventure before I disappeared for good. But instead of waking up with a hangover, I wake up in chains.
Auctioned. Sold. Claimed.
By him.
Darius Tauron isn’t human. He’s a minotaur, a towering beast with molten gold eyes and curved black horns, draped in wealth and danger. He owns this city’s underworld, and now? He owns me.
He says I belong to him. That he’s waited for me. That I was made for him.
But I’ve fought my whole life to stay free, and I won’t surrender to this monster.
Even if my heat is rising. Even if his touch sets my body on fire.
Even if the part of me I’ve always feared wants him to claim me.
Darius
She is mine.
The moment I saw her on that auction stage, my instincts roared to life. An omega. Unclaimed. Fated for me.
I didn’t hesitate. I bought her.
Now, she fights me. She doesn’t understand yet—she was never meant to run.
Her scent is already driving me insane. Her heat is coming, and when it does, she’ll beg for what only I can give her.
And when I finally sink my teeth into her?
She’ll know she was always meant to belong to the beast.

The sex scenes were hot af. Very well written, passionate, and sexy as hell. Originally, I would have given it a 4.5ish, but the lead "heroine" was a bit... well... she literally said the "I love u" after... what, 1 day? A few days? Yeah, that, unfortunately, made me really cringe.

I'm all for the "enemy to lovers" trope but if the lead female was so drastically opposed to her captor, it would have been better imo for them to develop a bond at least over a few months (weeks, even). But the dropped bombshell made it too unrealistic and/or made her seem a bit desperate and wishy washy. Which, ok, it's mostly sex and sex can greatly alter ones state of mind, especially w how the lead male did everything 😉

But yeah, the ILY was wayyyyy too early, like the author was trying to rush the ending. But aside from that plot point, the sex scenes were great and well written 👌🏼

Erotic, but the ILY made me cringe (spoliers)
