Chain Discipline

Musician George Tavlakis has owned the Rovani slave Yeraki for a month now. George believes that chaining Yeri will stifle his creativity. Everyone else believes that not chaining Yeri will result in a wild, dangerous and disobedient slave. It seems to George that the warnings are prophetic after Yeri mortally insults a dangerous man, placing not only his life in danger, but George's, too. When Yeri then dares to question his decisions, George wonders if he'll be forced to chain Yeri for the slave's own good or if he's just overreacting to having his will thwarted.

To chain or not to chain is the question that occupies George's thoughts as he tries to survive the danger his slave has unwittingly placed him in.
