A heroic act brings them together, but a dark secret threatens to tear them apart.
The Goddess: Thera, Goddess of Sensations, is the daughter of Ares, the god of war, and Aphrodite, the goddess of love. When her father decides to use her as a pawn to ignite a war between the Trozens and the Centaur race, Thera has little control over her own fate. But just as Ares is about to carry out his treacherous plan, Kyros, second son of the deceased king, leaps in front of the god's powerful beam to save her. In one heroic act, Kyros changes both their destinies. The Cursed Man: Kyros had no idea that saving the beautiful goddess would come at such a terrible price. By taking the force of Ares' beam, he has unknowingly volunteered to sire Thera's child-and has been cursed by the god of war. By day, Kyros is a man. By night, he becomes the wild centaur who secretly watches over Thera from the thicket. Relieved that her father's scheme has failed, Thera finds herself drawn to the brave man who risked everything to save her. But Kyros knows the truth she does not: the very creature she was meant to conceive a child with is him. When Thera discovers Kyros' secret, will she fear the creature he becomes after dark-or still see the man who was willing to sacrifice himself for her?
