Single minotaur story I decided to do after wondering why there aren't more minotaurs running around in mazes. Adult content and nature contined within this story, warning for underage users blah blah blah, ect. Let me know what you think.

Behind These Walls

The sun had set, on a very beautiful day. Sen walked down the lonely street, his hands deep in the pockets of his hoodie as he looked around him. Everything was empty as usually, and he casually kicked a rock that sat on the ground, minding its own business. The fox stared up at the amber sky, and let out a soft sigh. He wasn't quite ready to return to his empty apartment, so he decided to wander around town. He took random turns, on winding roads and alleyways, till he couldn't find street signs anymore. By the time he began to pay attention to his surroundings once more, he was lost.

"Well, I guess that's what I wanted," he said aloud to no one. He looked, and another rock lay on the ground, he kicked it, same as all the others. The stone sailed through the air, and hit a dilapidated brick wall. He was shocked to see the wall crumble down loudly, as it fell over on itself. The black fox looked around quickly; being sure no one noticed what was going on. He sneezed as the wave of dust blew past him. He moved to get some air, and then he noticed the breeze blowing from behind where the wall had fallen. Overwhelmed by a sudden sense of curiosity, he wandered into the hole the wall had left, climbing carefully over the fallen bricks.

On the other side, he was shocked to see more walls stretching everywhere, and a pleasant aroma wafted around the air. He noticed even though there were constructed walls everywhere, the ground was covered in lush grass. He looked around, and heard someone coming from the street he was standing at before he went through the hole. He ducked, and ran inside, not wanting to be seen for the collateral damage he had caused carelessly. He stepped passed the rubble, and pressed himself against the wall. He looked to the sides quickly, they seemed to go on and various corners rounded. He chose the right side and ran, until the wall ended in a corner and rounded to another corridor.

"Where the fuck am I?" he asked himself as he heard someone coming, and continued to run. The sky seemed to be bright with the stars and the moon, lighting up the ground and brick walls around him. He jumped to try to grab the ledge of the wall, but his paws could not quite grasp the ledge. He sat down, lost as he realized he was in some maze of brick walls. He stopped, and fell silent as he heard footsteps once more. They were heavy, he could feel the ground shake slightly under what approached him. A low rumble shook the air as a heavy scent of some creature began to fill the fox's nostrils. He sniffled, and almost coughed at the pungent smell. He made a break for it, his instincts flaring up. A part of his mind wanted to stay, and wonder what else was in the maze with him. The air growing colder, and his legs getting tired, Sen sat down and rested his back against the wall. He looked around, and found that he was now in a small opening, with entrances all around him.

Everything was silent, and he was tired, his heavy eyes soon fell as he needed rest. "Just for a bit," he said as he nodded off, after a few silent minutes. Sen's ears heard the grumbling noise, but his mind did not process it. It was the gentle, but heavy breath that washed over the fox's face, triggered his whiskers that finally woke him up. The fox's eyes focused in the dark quickly, and suddenly he let out the loudest yelp as he saw before him a large bull. He ducked in time for the bull's hand to miss his head. He rolled under the bull and he stood up, looking at the creature that had been following him. Something was different; the bull had the head, arms, and legs of a standard fur. The rest of his body was pure flesh, with thinner, wiry hair. He wore a thin loin cloth, and that too was strange, because it was lower than where it should be, he had no sheath, but his cock hung limp between his legs. His body resembled the fabled humans, mixed with a bull.

"What the fuck?!" Sen shouted, wide awake now. The bull turned, and stomped his hoof, grunting at him. Sen took but a second look at the creature before bolting away from him. "Gotta...get out," he panted to himself as he ran. He could hear the minotaur chasing after him. He ran as fast as he could, dodging at every opening he saw. He finally stopped, as he caught his breath. He pressed his back against a wall as he gasped for air, slowing his breathing to listen for the beast. He heard nothing but the pounding of his heart in his ears. He let out a sigh as he didn't hear a sound, but then the smell hit him again, he could smell the bull coming. He pushed off the wall, and began to listen intently. He relaxed as he still heard nothing. His shoulders slumped right when the wall he was laying against exploded and collapsed on top of him as the minotaur broke the stone barrier. "Fuck!" he shouted as he was caught in the rubble. The weight fell on the fox hard, pushing him into the ground from his legs, the remaining, crumbling mass slammed into his back, and his head, knocking him unconscious.

The minotaur looked down at the rubble that covered the fox. He moved the pile over with one great push, and picked up the limp body, carrying it off back to its lair. He gave the fox a curious sniff, wondering who had wandered into the labyrinth this time. He couldn't remember the last time a living being had made it in here, but most of them usually found an exit. He, however, was cursed to stay within the walls of the labyrinth. The bull made it quickly to one of the openings on the outside of the maze, and walked under a great arch of bricks, into his home. His lair was well kept, not having much else to do. Ancient items adorned the walls, pottery from many cultures, many long forgotten. His great axe hung on a rusty spike in the wall, gathering dust, but still sharp as ever. A small spring fountain fed into the back corner and his bed was made of large, leather bound mattresses that were covered in plush furs from various species. The area was lit by torches that seemed to make no smoke, nor smell. He set the fox down upon his bed, watching his eyes tremble as his body twitched. He gave him a gentle shake, but there wasn't much of a response.

The minotaur left to the other opening in his home, out to a small orchard, where there were many fruit bearing trees, and a small, well tended garden. He gathered some vegetables and fruit before heading back to his cave. He sat and watched the fox in his sleep, eating his meal and talking to himself. "Such a frail thing, it's my fault he almost got crushed, but why was I cursed with such a duty?"

His questions were left unanswered, as he began to wonder back to the days he first entered the labyrinth. It was a magical maze, and it was said anyone could find what they wanted in there, if they stayed long enough. However, treasures are not without their challenges; as he was the first to enter the gates of the maze. Because there was no current guardian, he was forced to become its protector, he couldn't remember his original form, and because his body had contorted to the being he was today. His mind changed, to have impulses to scare off anyone who wandered in. His impulse stopped however when the fox was knocked out. When he regained his sense, he looked at the poor being covered by rubble.

The bull fell out of his deep thoughts as he heard something stir on his bed. He stood up, and walked over to the fox, overcoming the fear of what he might do, as consideration for the fox's well being stronger. He closed his eyes, hoping that he would not chase the fox, and then he heard the same yip Sen had screamed before. His eyes opened, in fear that he had done something to hurt the fox, but were surprised to see that nothing had happened. Just standing there, he had spooked the vulpine when he opened his eyes. "Get away!" he said as he scrambled off the furs, but the soft mattress sank in beneath him, making his escape harder.

"Wait, I don't mean to harm you," the minotaur said in a low, but gentle voice.

The fox stared at the bull for a moment, before scrambling more. The minotaur grabbed the fox's leg and pulled him off the bed, with a bit more force than he had meant to use, causing the fur to yelp as he was slung across the dirt floor. "Oh no, I'm sorry about that, I didn't mean to,"

"Ahhh, get off me!" Sen said, as he kicked and screamed, and yelped as he continued to scramble for the exit.

"Calm down, little one, I said I mean you no harm," continued the bull as he gripped the fox's leg tighter. Sen, thinking quick, grabbed a handful of dirt, and slung it into the bull's eyes, making him growl as he began to wipe his eyes. Most of the dirt had missed, and wasn't but a moment before his eyes cleared to see the black fur run towards the exit. "No! You mustn't return to the maze!" he screamed as he charged full force at the fox, not wanting him to force the curse active once more. He made it just in time to grab the fox and throw him away from the exit, sending him sailing through the air, and landing roughly on his back, as he slid few feet across the dirt. Dazed, Sen lay there, and tried to catch his breath.

"Look what you've made me do!" he said as he walked over to the fox, and picked him up by his chest with one hand. He carried him over to the bed, and pinned him down. "I told you that I was not going to hurt you, but you still ran. "

The fox let out a growl, "You said that you wouldn't hurt me, but look what you did, if you weren't going to hurt me, then why won't you let me leave?!"

Taken back, the minotaur responds,"I'm...I'm sorry, but you see, if you were to go back into the maze, I would be forced to pursue you, possibly even kill you, because I am the guardian of the labyrinth, I can't control what I do when someone is in the maze, but it seems that doesn't apply here."

"Can you let me go now that we have established that you won't hurt me?"

"Only if you don't run off again,"

"Fine."

The minotaur let the fox go, and he stared at him for a long second, thinking about bolting again. The minotaur let out a sigh as he saw the fox sit still.

"So, what are you?" he asked as he looked at the bull.

"I am what you would call a minotaur, a creature of legend, half man, half bull, but to be honest, I don't remember what I was before I was cursed, but I do remember my name at least, Taruu"

"Ah, well, we I thought you were just a bull at first, but your body was clearly different, I'm Sen,"

"Well a great pleasure to meet you," Taruu said as he shook the fox's paw gently.

The fox looked as the larger hand clasped his whole paw and wrist, "Same, so, umm...what is this maze?"

"This is an ancient structure, from long ago, constructed by a mysterious figure, who claimed to put all the treasures of anyone's trued desire in here, but they'd have to find it, and escape with it. I was the first unfortunate fool to wander in, and being that no treasure should be left unguarded, I was forced to become the watcher of the maze,"

"Wow, that sucks, I mean that's sad that you're stuck here, well did you at least get your treasure?"

"You know, I never thought about that, it never concerned me since I changed, but I have not found my fortune yet, though it won't make much of a difference since I can't leave,"

"Aww, I'm sorry Taruu," Sen said, scooting closer to the minotaur.

"It's alright, I've lived this way for ages, if you're in here, you should go find your treasure and leave,"

"Well here's the strange thing, I happened to come across the maze when I was walking home, and I can't seem to find my way out,"

"What do you mean? I've chased you towards the exit many a time, I've seen you leave through before,"

"I haven't seen any exits, only more and more walls," he said, rubbing his head, trying to think if perhaps he did see the exit.

"Oh dear, I hope you are not stuck in here with me as well, though it's been centuries since I've seen someone else brave to wander the maze."

"No, I can't be stuck in here, no offense, but I have things to do," Sen said standing up. "The only treasure I want right now is that of freedom!"

"You're a strange one," Taruu said, cocking his head.

"I get that a lot, so it is my understanding if I set foot outside this cave, that you will chase and possibly kill me?"

"That is what normally happens,"

Sen let out an audible gulp, "Ah, well then, I'm a bit thirsty, all that running and what not,"

"Oh yes, help yourself, there's a spring in the back, and that smaller entry is to the garden, you can eat anything you find there," Taruu said sitting on the bed.

"Thanks," Sen said as he wandered off. He bent over to sip some water, his tail wagged to keep his balance. The bull watched the fox as he drank. His eyes captivated on the fox's hind quarters. The bull continued to watch as he felt his member begin to stir. Sen, satisfied with his thirst, left to the garden, oblivious to the bull who watched him. After a moment, he returned with some left over fruits in his hands as he stopped, looking at Taruu who sat on the bed, with his mighty legs spread, and his member erect, lifting over the loincloth.

"Umm, Taruu?" Sen started.

"Yes?" he answered.

Sen could smell the mighty scent of the bull as his nether regions aired out. The air was thick with his musk as Sen dropped his fruit. "Do you mind?"

"What are you speaking about?" Taruu asked.

"Umm, could you cover yourself?"

"Why?" he asked, genuinely confused, not used to having the need for clothing.

"Umm, your, ah," Sen just pointed between his legs,"

"Have you never seen something like this?"

"Well, that's not quite it... never mind," Sen said as he sat down and ate the remaining fruit. He nibbled on a strange peach looking fruit, but it was deep blue, and the flesh inside was purple. It had a sweet and tangy flavor, but quite enjoyable as he ate the rest of them. "Mmm, these were quite good, I've never seen them before,"

"Ah, those are night berries. They help promote good sleep,"

"Oh, well..." Sen started before he fell over, eating too many of the berries. The fox lay there, breathing deeply as he rolled around on the ground a bit. The bull gave a sigh, and leaned over, picking up the fox. He undressed him carefully so that he did not dirty his clothes anymore, and laid the sleeping fox on the bed. He looked out at the garden; the sun indicated it was only mid afternoon. He smiled and lay next to the fox, stroking his soft fur as he slept. Sen let out a gentle murr as his strong hands brushed through his silk like fur. Taruu smiled as the fox stretched out, and turned inwards, nuzzling the minotaur's chest in his sleep. Taruu enjoyed his company, petting the smaller fur gently.

At some point Taruu had fallen asleep, the sun had set, and Sen began to stir. He felt something hot poking him in the stomach. He sniffed, and his nose took in the heavy scent of the bull. He woke up, and found that he was naked and hard, pressed against the bull, wrapped in his arms. He made a quick mental check of his body, and noted that most likely nothing had happened. Relived that there wouldn't be much of an awkward wakeup, he tried his best to slip out of the arms of the sleeping bull. He wondered to himself, when he was unconscious, Taruu didn't chase him anymore, perhaps if he was asleep it would work the same way. So he slowly tipped toed out of the cave. Looking back every second or two at the sleeping minotaur.

He made it to the edge of the cave, before he heard a grunt. He looked carefully, in the dark, he saw Taruu shift, but still in the bed. He let out a small sigh, and stepped pass the threshold, into the entrance of the maze. He heard another shift, and looked around, but saw nothing. In fact, he didn't see the large form on the bed any more at all. His eyes darted around trying to find where the bull had went, but it was only a blur he caught when Taruu slammed into his back, pinning him down on the ground face down. "No, let me go!" he tried to cry, before the heavy elbow of the bull pinned the fox down at the neck.

Half of Sen's body was passed the entrance and the other half was in the cave, all pinned under the heavy minotaur. Sen let out a small whimper as Taruu's crushing weight shifted around him. Still pinned, he felt the pressure lift off his back, but then he felt what had to be the bull's hot length pressed against under his tail. He was no stranger to something pressed up his passage, but this bull was much larger than what he was accustomed to. He continued to try to scramble out from under the bull, and then realized he was still asleep. His body was in auto pilot to catch anyone in the maze, but his mind was still in the realm of dreams, as half of Sen's body was in the maze summoned his duty, and his other half was in the cave, that fed off the minotaur's lust.

The heavy scent of the bull's muck filled the air as he continued to try to spear his target. Sen couldn't even let out a whimper as Taruu lifted himself, pressing down on his shoulder and the back of his neck as he continued to pin him down. He tried to pull down his tail, but with the blunt head of the minotaur's member managed to press firmly against his hole because the small action guided right into Taruu's benefit. The fox gasped as he felt the tip stretch his hole open, and begin to slide in. The bull on top of him let out a low moan as he sunk his length into the fox. Sen let out a quiet groan as he felt the weight of the bull shift into his rear as he was stretched with the slow, but deep entry. Soon, only the heavy breathing of the bull could be heard as he hilted his thick cock inside the fox below.

"I should have stayed in bed," Sen thought to himself as he continued to squirm under the bull. His efforts were short lived as he was no match to lift the weight above him, and the member inside of him pulsed with Taruu's strong heart only made it harder to move about. He let out a soft moan as he felt the minotaur's cock slowly slip back out, he shifted his hand to the small of the fox's back, and pressed his weight down once more as he began to grind his length back into Sen. He felt his own vulpine member bounce with the push of the minotaur against his belly. He let out a soft murr as the bull began to thrust a bit harder. His sleeping mind knew not what his moving body was doing. To Taruu, it all seemed like a dream his lonely mind conjured to satisfy his needs. So he pounded away, as he moved his hands to Sen's hips, lifting his bottom to be leveled with his crotch as he pumped his heavy cock into the fox.

Sen had given up on escaping the much stronger minotaur. He let his body be used by the bull as he thrust eagerly into the tight confines of the vulpine. The fox closed his eyes tight as the bull pounded away with wild abandon. Each powerful thrust, slammed and slid his length across the fox's prostate. The immense, blinding pleasure began to overwhelm Sen, as he continued to close his eyes, seeing sparks fly each time the bull hilted back into him. It wasn't long before Sen's knot, fully swollen, began to spurt his seed on the ground below. The bull wasn't quite there, and grunted as he dragged the fox back and on top of him, forcing the change in gravity to sit the vulpine down upon his member, as he humped the air rapidly. Sen's mouth hung open as he felt his whole body, outside and in, shift suddenly, shoving the bull's cock deeper inside his body. It was this added pressure that set Taruu off. He let out a mighty roar as he came into Sen, pulling him down by the thighs. He held down the fox as he flooded the fox's depths with his seed. Each pulse sent another torrent of thick cum into Sen's belly. A slight pudge formed as the seed soon flooded inside the fox, splashing out around his backside, into the bull's loincloth and crotch.

Panting hard, Sen fell back on to Taruu's broad chest and laid there, feeling the seed leak out of him slowly. The bull wrapped his strong arms around the fox, and held him as he rolled over onto his side and fell back into his gentle sleep. Sen panting hard for what had to be the ride of his life simply curled up, and passed out from his own exhaustion. It was about mid morning when the two woke. Taruu scratched his head, as he had the best dream ever. He looked around and wondered why he was off his bed, and then found the fox next to him, stirring from the sound. He took a good sniff and looked down on his crotch, then at the fox, and realized what he had done. A serious look of worry came across his face, as he picked up the fox and hugged him. "I'm sorry, so sorry, I didn't mean to hurt you,"

Sen, waking up to a minotaur crushing and shaking him suddenly yelped, and that caused Taruu to let go, where he caught himself on the ground. "Whoa, sorry, still waking up, wait, no you didn't hurt me,"

"But...last night, I thought it was a dream, the best I've ever had,"

"Yeah, I bet you did, it's a little my fault, you see, I tried to leave into the maze when you were asleep, perhaps I could wander it freely while you were unconscious, sorta like how you didn't feel like killing me when I was unconscious." He soon stopped as he realized his words had struck harder than the bull could with his hands. "Wait...no, I wasn't trying to,"

"Leave? Leaving here while I was asleep? I must admit, that was a viable plan, but I am bound magically by duty, I understand if you don't feel like staying here, this is my burden alone, but you couldn't at least say good bye?" he said, his eyes watering over.

"No, I wasn't trying to leave, I just wanted to see if I could go into the maze unhindered while you slept,"

"I am old, but I am no fool, your attempt at escape failed, leave now, and crush my wish," the bull said, turning away from the fox. Tears now rolling down his face, his dream was more than just pleasure from the fox. It was the dream of him finally finding his treasure in the maze, someone that didn't repeatedly run away from him screaming, but it was just like every other living being in the maze, just wandering around till the bull chased it out. Just like everyone else.

"Taruu...I think I know what my wish is, and if you said every person's treasure could be found in the maze, I want you to help me find mine."

"Oh, milking me for all I'm worth now?"

"No, you were right, I want to leave this maze, but I want to leave here, with you,"

"What? Why would you wish for a monster like me to leave this place?"

"I don't want you to be stuck here, forever alone, please, help me find the treasure,"

"You really, truly wish for that?"

"Yes, I do," Sen said, as he gave the bull as small hug.

"Then we will find it!" he said as he picked up the fox, "I've come across many treasures in this maze, they always seem to follow a pattern, but for me to find yours, you'll have to be asleep."

"Already on it," he said as he jumped off the bull, and grabbed a few more night berries. "These should do the trick, but don't you try anything funny!" he said pointing a finger at Taruu.

"As if you'd remember," he mumbled.

"What?"

"I said hurry, we're wasting light," he lied.

"Alright," he said as he bit into his narcoleptic breakfast. The minotaur couldn't help my smile at the fox's swollen cheeks as he chewed down the fruit. It was only moment before his eyes grew heavy once more, and he fell into the arms of the bull who cradled him gently in one arm. He smiled and watched him snooze, but remembered his task. He charged into the maze, knocking down a few walls in his hurry to get to the familiar areas. Once there, he took a complicated trail he had many times before, twisting left and right, finally coming to the usual corner that the treasure could be found. Instead of the usually corner with piles of gold, or ancient manuscripts that depicted beings of power, he found a large wooden door. The door looked solid, and it seemed to not budge against the minotaur who pushed with all his might. He sat there with a frown, as he could not open the door. It seems it was meant only for the fox. His eyes filled with tears once more, but he just held, and hugged the fox tight. His actions stirred Sen's body, as he began to wake up.

"Oh no," he said as he realized if Sen were to wake up in his arms, he might hurt him. He set him down and made his way back into the maze, trying to get as far as possible before his curse overwhelmed his sense once more. He had made it a good distance, before he turned sharply on his heel. He cried as his body charged back towards the fox, full force. His face still matted with a few tears as he broke down a few walls to get to his target. Sen heard the charging bull, but was reluctant to open the door. He had meant what he told Taruu, and wished to keep his promise. But the fox's instincts had their own way of cursing his body, as he saw the column of smoke billow out at the approaching threat. He gripped the door handle and pushed, but it seemed to move slowly. He pushed as hard as he could, but no matter what amount of effort, the door wouldn't move any faster. Sen pressed his back against the door, and watched as the bull charged right at him. His arm charged forth and threatened to crush the fox. Sen closed his eyes, pressing desperately on the door. At the last moment when the mighty palm of the minotaur pressed into the soft chest of the fox, before the impact could crush the fox between the door, it flung open, and they both fell through to the other side. Sen yelped as the large bull fell on top of him, pressing him hard against the concrete ground. The minotaur shook his head, as he shot up, off the fox. Sen was dazed, but breathing and Taruu quickly picked him up.

"Ow," said the fox.

"Sorry, wait, where are we?"

"Umm, I would say if not heaven, then outside my house," he said as he looked around.

"What... you mean, we're not in the maze?" the bull said in disbelief as he looked around, not believing the sights he saw. Luckily it was late enough that no one was outside to see the two magically appear out of nowhere. Sen shook himself and headed for his small house. Not having his clothing, he had to use the spare key under the rug.

"Come on, before someone sees you," he said, waving at the bull who took in the sights around him. Taruu swiftly ran inside, ducking his head so he didn't break the door frame. Inside the house, Sen let out a long sigh. "Taruu, it seems we both got our wish,"

"Indeed," the bull said smiling, he now had his freedom, and someone to share it with. They embraced each other, and held on for a long while. They were in the comfort of their Sen's home, away from the outside world, away from the cursed maze. They continued to hold each other as their affection grew safely behind these walls.
