Cub Asked Why Humans Drink Coffee She Let Him Smell It SCI
from Short SciFi Stories on the go · host Kelli Korner
Cub asked why humans drink coffee, she let him smell it. The cub recoiled so hard he fell backward, claws scraping metal, eyes wide, pupils blown, as the scent hit him like a chemical weapon. Didn't bear teeth or beat chests like his kind did before a kill. The cub saw Sarah take a hit, armor cracked, blood blooming, and still drag herself upright. Because any species willing to drink something that smells like a weapon, just to keep fighting, is not prey and never was.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/little-scifi-stories-on-the-go--7033804/support.
