Andreas POV.

"I

give up, God do you hear me???" I yelled having enough of this tough

world, life had been taking all her anger on me over me. First I lost my

mother then I lost her house, now I'm homeless, hungry, and out of

options. I had to drop out of high school, I couldn't pay for the school

nor go to the public one, someone had to feed me, that someone being

me, I had to feed myself. But now I haven't eaten in the last week, I'm

starving, I need a solution, I'm really bad at being an adult, being an

adult is a hard job, I can't have a job, I look like a child or so I'm

being told.

I was

kicked off my last job, a job in the grocery store, all I had to do was

put the grocery in bags, but I'm too slow for that. I'm too weak for it,

and people often did complain about child labor, and that's how ladies

and gentlemen I was kicked off my last job. The last one in town, the

only one I could do, now I'm more desperate than ever, I had no more

options, I can't even leave town and go somewhere else to find a better

job.
That's how I ended up standing over the edge of this bridge,

I'm not going to jump, I didn't have plans to suicide, I don't do

self-harm, I want to live a better life, not end mine. Being me, small

in size, having curly hair, I had a friend in school Elle, she called it

instant noodles hair, my eyes were just regular brown. There was

nothing special about me, except I blush real easily, I would blush from

even the thought of the thing I have in mind now.

Let

me tell you about the world we live in now, it's different, oops I

think I forgot to tell you what year it is, the year is 3096, November

to be exact, the weather is on the cold side, I'm freezing right now.

Back to our topic, Vampires, you know the creatures that drink blood and

live in the darkness? Shine in the sunlight, they don't shine sadly,

but they are out now, they haven't taken over the world, instead, they

live in their own places. In closed cities where only vampires are

allowed in along with what belongs to them. Yes, you see that's the

thing I had in mind, they would take humans in, in return they'd pay

you, pay your family or people of your choice.

I

had no one, I only had me, I need someone to take care of me, this is

my last option, go to an auction house and auction myself off, the

money, well I'll they can skip paying me as long as I'm promised to be

well-taken care of. I heard the rumors, most said the vampires are into

BDSM, I'm don't think I'm a sub, Elle used to call me a baby in school,

I'm good with being a baby, I don't want to be a kitten, well a kitten

is nice, but not one that had a but plug in their behind the whole day,

no offense, but isn't my thing.

"Are

you happy now?" I yell back to the sky, things have gone so badly, this

is my last option, selling myself. Just, I want to say not tonight, I

want to keep this off for few extra days, but a storm is coming, and I

can't have another night out in the cold, being homeless is not fun.

I walked off the bridge, it's my favorite place in the whole of the

town, in the summer me and mom used to feed ducks from here, but in

winter, it's beautiful, coldly beautiful. I walked toward the auction

house, there's one in the big cities, and even small ones, vampires like

to choose their pets from all over the world, there's an auction once

monthly if I'm lucky I'll join tomorrow's auction.

The

walk wasn't that long, but I still was out of breath, I haven't eaten

in the last three days, and I'm starving, dizzy and tired. I finally

made it to the auction house, but I froze outside, I was too scared to

walk in, what if things go badly, what if they refuse me, they don't

take everyone, they have their own standards, I'm gonna mess things up. I

knew it, but I couldn't do anything else, this was my last option, this

or die from the coldness, taking one last breath, I walked into the

auction house, my heart beating one thousand beats per minute.
The

place wasn't as scary as I expected it to be, there was a desk with a

middle-aged woman sitting behind it, she smiled and motioned for me to

come in, I got closer to her desk my breath hitching.
"What can I do for you?" the woman asks with a smile.
"I...I want...to put myself up for auction" I say finally having enough brave to tell her what I'm here for.
