Teardrops and chains

Taysia is a proud member of the wolven race, a small group of people scattered across the world who have the rare ability to shift into a wolf-like form. Though the few members of this race are strong, there is a different race who overrules them, keeps them as slaves. Vampire. Only those of a royal bloodline in the vampire world may own these "pets", as they call them. And when the wolven females are old enough to reproduce, they are forced to mate with a male of their owners choosing, to keep their race from dying out.

Taysia does not like the idea of being forced to conceive the child of a man she does not know. And this turns out to be a problem with her tyrant of an owner, Samuel. His son, Robert, saves her life, though, when he takes an odd interest in her and demands to keep her as his own.
