Breeder's Row

By Misha Ray

My name is Cady, and I am officially a contracted breeder.The monsters we had all assumed were nothing more than horror stories and folklore now control the planet. We’re at their mercy, and must follow their rules or be sold into slavery.If you’re male, life is pretty simple, but for women...My twenty-first birthday is here, and it’s time to sign up for my duties. I had hoped for a little more time with my family – or to be skipped over altogether. That hope is dashed when a vampire who has been obsessed with me for years requests my presence on Breeder’s Row.I’m not looking forward to being used as a paranormal baby maker, but there is no choice – I have to fulfill my contractual duties. What I don’t expect is the care the women are given, or how much I enjoy having sex with any man who wants me. And I certainly never thought I’d develop feelings for the vampire who pulled me into this life.

Chapter One

Cady

Read over it carefully, my lawyer said after pushing my contract toward me.

It was my twenty-first birthday. That meant I had to officially sign up for duty. Since the day the creatures came out of hiding, the humans had been at war with them. I was barely ten when that had happened. Once we realized there was no way to beat them, we had to learn to live with them.

Unfortunately, the vampires not only outnumbered us, but outpowered us. They’d formed a monarchy and demanded payment from the humans. Every female was to sign on as a volunteer on their twenty-first birthday. Each male was to sign up on their eighteenth. The males could be chosen at any time after they’d enrolled to become a blood donor. Females…

I sighed as I read each line. Once I signed this piece of paper, I was signing away my body, my womb, and my life. On my twenty-first birthday, I was enrolling as a breeder to the vampires and shifters. I didn’t really enjoy the idea, but humans had been doing the same thing since we’d lost the war. We were encouraged by the older generation to screw as much as possible in hopes of bringing more humans into the world to one day take back control.

I had no desire to be a party to that. Mainly because I didn’t like the idea of bringing a child into the world who would one day have to do exactly what I was doing at that very moment.

There was no guarantee that you’d be chosen as a breeder after signing up, but I wasn’t overly optimistic. I’d had a vampire pursuing me since I was sixteen. And even though he could’ve easily snatched me away from my family – not like they could’ve physically stopped him – he had followed the laws put in place by the Royal Family.

With a deep breath, I signed my name across the page – Acadia Catherine Parker.

Okay, Cady. Just date there and there. Initial here, my lawyer said as he pointed to various spots and flipped to the very last page. And sign here indicating you’re willingly signing up for breeding duties by law of the Royal Family.

My heart thundered as I scribbled my name across that last line. My lawyer looked over it, nodded, then set his lips into a grim line. I hate this fucking part of my job, he admitted. If it were up to me, I’d find a way to hide every single one of you girls until menopause .

Thanks, Howard. I appreciate the sentiment.

Howard reached across the table and patted my hand, anger bright in his eyes. He nodded once, pushed from the table and left me sitting there, staring out the window at the city below. Within minutes, my world had gotten scarier.

What if I was chosen? It wasn’t like I was being married off. Nope. I’d be taken to a specific part of town and become a breeder to whoever chose me. I hadn’t heard anything from a single woman who’d been taken into the Palace walls. And the women who’d been chosen as a breeder by someone other than a member of the Guard were usually breeders to several vampires or shifters.

I laid a hand on my belly and wondered what it would feel like to carry a monster inside of me. Would it destroy me from the inside out? Would I ever be able to love the child knowing I wasn’t willingly bringing him into the world?

Tears burned the backs of my eyes. I needed to get home. I needed to talk to my family, see my friends, in case it was the last time for a while.

I was no fool; I knew the second Jarek found out I was officially enrolled he’d have me moved into breeder’s row. The fucking nickname alone made me sick to my stomach and had me searching for a trash can to throw up last night’s dinner. Because there was no way I could’ve eaten anything today, not when I knew exactly how my day would go.

Howard came back in just in time to catch me dry heaving into his fancy metal waste basket.

"You okay, Cady? Need me to call your parents? Or
