The work of a veterinary technician and a veterinarian are often thankless jobs.  

The veterinary team are tireless advocates for animal health and animal rights.  Many don't realize the heartache that is encountered each day at a veterinary clinic.  The work day is not full of cuddly puppies and warm, fuzzy kittens.  Many days are filled with the reminder that life is short and fragile and nothing should be taken for granted.

This is the story of how one bright-eyed little girl with a desire to save all sick and injured animals grew up and came to learn that not every animal can be saved.  This is the record of one veterinary technician turned veterinary student.

Prey by cannoness

In this life, a human without the money to pay for their own life is worth nothing. Take those humans in as property, breed them, and you'll end up like one of me. One of us. Pets. Born and trained to serve our Masters once the day comes that we have one. That's the day most pets fear. That's the day our lives change for better... or For worse. ~~~ Spinoff to: Vampire's Pet ~~~ Cover made by : mshacake

Vampire's Pet by cannoness

The world had gone to hell long ago, taken over by the vampire race. In order to keep some sort of peace in our land, the Vampire Lords made a consecutive agreement. The rich and powerful humans could survive just as they had been, untouched by the vampires save for the occasional blood collections, or so they thought In reality, we were all under their control. Castles spread out throughout our land, one landing in each city. Each castle varied in the number of vampires residing there, but all of them carried a Lord. The Lords were the ones in charge in every city, whether we liked it or not. The vampires often roam through the city, making sure that everyone was in order and no one stepped out of line. If you stepped out of line, you died, end of story. Even if the rich were still under their control, their lives were still better than the poor. The poorest lives held a much worse fate. The men were to be put to work as slaves, whether that meant serving a specific vampire, or just building their castles, they were slaves. The women were to be pets. Pets were the lowest rank you could have. They were forced into cages that were too small to stand in with collars around their necks. They spent their lives in pet shops, just waiting for the dreadful day that they'll be bought. They were treated like animals, trained into what their master wanted, and punished if they misbehaved. Those who were lucky enough to live through that, we're to be slaughtered for their blood at age twenty-five in an act to make sure that our population would stay steady. I was born into this world. Born into this world full of blood-sucking monsters. Except, I was one of the lucky ones. Was. It all ended for me when I was 12, when I was taken away from the last bit of hope and family that I had left. Ever since then, I've lived in a cage, just rotting away, waiting, dreading for the day that some monster would make me his. This is my life. I am a pet. ~~~ Cover by: @mshacake

An Angel in the Dark by Hamster_XXX

The human world is long gone and is now controlled by the vampire race. Humans with money can live a peaceful life while the poor decide to sell their children as pets to vampires. Orphans are forced into the role of pets and werewolves are tortured and trained into soldiers or pets. This world is ruled by a cold-hearted, ruthless king who shows no mercy towards his enemies. But all that changes when the Vampire King was gifted a new pet, a pet with a heart of gold. With only a smile she manages to change the King's heart, making him change his whole persona. But for how long can the King keep the secrets of the castle before his sweet pet finds them out. And what happens when the King finally finds a mate? Will he accept her or leave her in pieces? What will happen to the pet? Will she fear the King forever or learn to trust him? How will the King's nice behavior affect her and what will happen to her when she finds out the secrets of the vampire race? I'm the last of my kind, the only shifter left. As a child, I was marked as a pet. All my freedom just slipped through my fingers leaving me trapped and now, I get to become the King's new pet.

Humanity cries out for his help, but, Humanity needs saving, you all want a hero. And that's why I have to kill him.

NO MORE TEARS (BxB) by Black-Wicked

For as long as I could remember vampires ruled other humans. I found it that way and I believed that was an injustice. Not like I could do much about it. Once I turned of age, I would be sold as a blood slave, a pet and my life would possibly end. I never liked these creatures to begin with. Adding salt to injury I was bought by a royal vampire, the prince. I cursed the day I was born. Maybe not all vampires were the same, but for humans that was just wishful thinking. (This book has mature mentions, violence, blood, sexual scenes and mature content. Proceed with caution.)

Love & Loss by cannoness

ATTENTION: This is the SECOND book of my Vampire's Pet series and cannot be read as a stand alone book. ~~~ I thought that my life had ended the day I got purchased by a blood thirsty monster. I thought that the rest of my life was going to be nothing but constant fear and suffering. But I couldn't have been more wrong. What I found was something much different. Something that I didn't even know I was looking for let alone wanted. What I found was a new beginning. A new beginning with the one I cared most for. ~~~ Cover by: @aculeasis
