Humans are not meant to be noticed. And yet, they are.
To Covet a Human: Part I is a dark romance anthology of queer, intimate, and emotionally destructive encounters between humans and the creatures who should have left them untouched. Set in liminal spaces where rules fray and desire becomes dangerous, this collection explores what happens when monsters do not simply hunt-but choose.
Across four interwoven arcs-fae, vampire, demon, and succubus-attention becomes obsession, protection becomes possession, and intimacy becomes a force that reshapes both sides of the Veil. These are not stories of gentle love or easy salvation. They are slow burns that ache. They linger. They ruin things.
Each section follows a human who refuses to disappear and a monster who should have never looked twice. Boundaries are crossed. Consent is tested and redefined. Power shifts in unexpected ways. And once attention is given, it cannot be taken back.
To Covet a Human: Part I is about longing that corrodes restraint, desire that demands consequence, and the quiet devastation of being chosen by something that was never meant to want.
This is not a collection about falling in love.
It is about what it costs to be wanted.
