Human/Centaur
It was a beautiful day so I decided to go scouting and to get away from my fiancé Patricia, she was beautiful sure but gods she is the meanest, bossiest woman I had ever met including my tutor who compared to her was a saint.
Patricia has long platinum hair that is always in a bun, she smells like perfume and her face is paler than paper. She is rude to everyone around her including my father the King, but he was eager for me to marry her for better trade routes. To make matters worse her voice was so shrill it could curdle fresh milk, every time I heard her I wanted to dive into the sea and ride a whale far away from her.
In the forest I felt free; the sun hitting my skin always reminded me of my mother's hugs. When she passed away I lost myself for a while and I practically lived in the forest, I even had a private spot hidden deep in the brush is a hidden lagoon with fresh fruit and plenty of fish.
On my way through the forest I noticed a horseshoe track, heading to my lagoon so I followed them. When I got to the lagoon I carefully pulled back the bush to find a stunning Centaur, he is tall with dark brown hair and tan fur, his skin is pale with some small tattoos, he wears a small jacket and a belt.
I wanted to see him up close so keeping my bow low I approached him, when I cleared the brush the most angelic voice spoke.
"You are louder than a rampaging boar, who are you?" he asked turning towards me.
He has the most dazzling green eyes, a small moustache and two plaits on either side of his face. He has a dagger on his belt as well as a quiver, regardless of his weapons I felt safe with him.
"I didn't mean to intrude, my name is Y/N. I come here to escape my fiancé and to think. May I ask your name?" I asked.
"I am Nikiss of the Qeldra clan, next in line to be chief. By the way you are dressed I am guessing you are a prince?" he asked rubbing his chin.
"You are very perceptive, yes I am. In the forest though I try to leave my title behind" I admitted.
"I want to apologise on how your people are treated, when I am King I am going to make a law that your people aren't hunted or enslaved" I told him bowing my head.
Centaurs are very wary of humans, my father doesn't think I know this but I do. Centaurs can be hunted, bought, traded and killed all in the name of sport. If they run away the clans they run to are wiped out completely, I hated this fact and vowed when I became king to end it!
"Meet my gaze Prince, Gods you are telling the truth. You are one of a kind, why are you out here?" he asked.
I told him about my fiancé how she is cruel and conniving, Nikiss just listened never interrupted me waiting until I finished.
"I didn't mean to vent, I am sorry" I said
"No need for apologies, I am also avoiding a desired mate but she just wants power" he snorted
"We have something in common" we both said before laughing.
"I have to get back to my clan, I hope to see you soon" he bowed.
"How about tomorrow?" I asked
He looked stunned but agreed to meet again.
When I returned to my room my fiancé was waiting for me.
