My 2025 prompt team event entry. I combined a few extra genre/sub-genre categories. Primary one:

Western/Weird West

Weird West - Fantasy in a Western. (Cowboys and Centaurs)

A cowboy and his centaur ride into Las Vegas. Told, obviously, since it’s me, from the Centaur’s perspective.

Set in The Old West, we come upon Moss and Link, two men at a precipice in their young lives. Monsters, real or imagined, come in all forms. Perhaps the most dangerous kind are the real ones, people who believe they have the right, for whatever reason, to abuse and control through fear. When innocence is viciously taken, it can be a long road back to trusting, both yourself and others.

After a turbulent beginning, Noah is finally living the fairytale life—married to Jace, and building the perfect family. For a while, everything feels like a fairytale. But fairytales don’t last forever.

When the past comes knocking, old wounds are ripped open & secrets begin to unravel. As old flames ignite and buried secrets come to light, Noah finds himself torn between fighting for his place as Jace’s legal husband or walking away from the life he built.

Love, betrayal, and painful truths collide in this emotional journey of devotion, identity, and the brutal price of holding on to someone who may no longer be yours.

But things take a darker twist as an obsessed lover and haunting memories from his past resurface, threatening to destroy everything. Faced with a future he never imagined, Gael must decide: is he ready to let go of the past and embrace his new life, or will it continue to hold him captive?

Miguel Powers, a powerful businessman with a dark past, is driven by one goal: revenge. But when he crosses paths with Christian, a passionate lawyer fighting for justice, a dangerous attraction sparks between them.

As Miguel plots his twisted revenge, he finds himself torn between ambition and love, seduction and betrayal. In this high-stakes game, the price of vengeance might be more than he’s willing to pay—especially when it could cost him his heart. Will love or revenge define his fate?

Gael is a starry-eyed young man, dreaming of a fairytale life with Carlos. But when dreams shatter and reality reveals the painful truth, Gael is left questioning everything he once believed about love. Heartbroken and lost, he must decide whether to fight for a love that may never be as it seemed or walk away from the man he thought was his forever. When fate offers a second chance, will Gael dare to believe in love again—or is he doomed to repeat his heartache?

Meet Joel... A kind of man everyone admires- smart, handsome, and driven—but beneath the surface lies a past soaked in darkness and regret. When love finally knocks on his door, it feels like the reward he’s been waiting for. But with every passionate moment comes a rising tide of jealousy and envy, and his haunting past lurks, ready to destroy everything he's fought for. As the pressure mounts, Joel must face the question: Will he hold onto the life and love he's always dreamed of, or will the weight of his secrets drag him to a fate where nothing remains but ashes??
