Finding Kolyan a Home

- You think I don’t know what these goats decided to do—pair you up with a man? And you knew it too. Still, you came here. The question is: why? Answer: for the man. Right?

She shakes her head no—hair flies apart, a strand gets stuck in the corner of her lips. I look and can’t tear my eyes away. Damn little troublemaker. She’s made a mess of all my nerves. She came here for a man, right? But nope!

There won’t be any other man for her. I’ll make sure of that.

She glances around, tears her wrist out of my hands—but it’s useless!

I jerk her sharply into the corner, like a spider with a fly.

And with the same intentions. To eat.

Wives of my friends decided for some reason that I need a woman. And they started trying to set me up. But they don’t know Koly an well!

You can’t trap me!

I can end up in a trap only if I want to!
