Minotaur's Garden: A Cozy MM Beastly Nuzzle by Baert Ochs
Julian
I come to Sanctuary Cove to disappear. A shattered knee, a career in ruins, a press corps hungry for tragedy. Perfect place to hide above a coffee shop and pretend I don’t miss the stage with every breath.

Then I push open the door to The Minotaur’s Garden.

Barns is… enormous. Gentle. Terrified of his own elbows. His plants glow after dark and hum like a choir, and his smile looks like a storm deciding to pass. I’m supposed to buy a plant and leave. Instead I start rearranging his chaos into choreography and somehow rearrange myself too.

The town whispers. The mayor carries hexes in her purse. A shark in a suit offers to “fix” my knee and erase the last six months like they’re a typo. Meanwhile Barns fights a dangerous Fever that turns his magic wild. He thinks his size makes him a hazard. I’ve spent my life surviving impossible physics.

I’m not fragile. I’m choosing this.

Sanctuary Cove doesn’t promise happily ever after. It promises honesty, heat, and the kind of care that grows roots. If I go back, I get the stage. If I stay, I get a life.

And a Minotaur who makes the night bloom.

Tropes & hurt/comfort; gentle giant x sharp, wounded artist; found family; grumpy/protective cinnamon roll; size kink; magical small town; disability/rehab; “monster is soft, human is feral”; rut/fever; choice between cure vs self.

Heat high
