Boredom… The same shit routine every fucking day. It’s like nothing
gets me kicking anymore. The same loyal subjects that would tear my head
off the second I turned to look away, and the same open-legged hoes craving
for a spot in my bed.
That’s how it’s been for the past year. A dream put on repeat.
A dream that eventually became my entrapment.
Still, I wouldn’t give it up for anything in the world.
Maybe I’m the supreme sinner, but I live off the power my position
provides. The fear shown in anyone’s eyes that ever does me wrong and the
sweet color of their blood as I wash it in the sink. An adrenaline junkie, that’s
what I am, always searching for the next rush of excitement, always on the
verge of breaking my limits.
3rd of September. First day of my last year at the Academy.
In a way, it felt like the beginning of the end. I would eventually be
forced to abandon my crown and search for a new path. The thought was
bringing me both happiness and sadness. I was to close a known book and
venture off to whatever life would throw at me.
Normally, I wouldn’t have any reason to worry about life after the Echo
Millennium Academy, but things have changed. My family name used to
open all locked doors and get me access to any position I might desire. My
future used to be assured.
Not so much anymore.
My family’s wealth had considerably diminished over the last couple of
years. Not a thing to be proud of, but a thing my father is working on
resolving, while I’m working on still keeping things under wraps. That
mostly means I need to still maintain the appearance of wealth. Not sure
anyone would want a king with a crown made up of promises instead of pure
gold.
At least, I still had my car. The rest didn’t matter. Money comes and
money goes but as long as I was in charge of the Academy, I could make my
financial situation a lot easier.
Everyone in the Hills had money, and my playground reunited the
richest figures in our city.
Though I wasn’t interested in making money.
Not that day.
Something else caught my attention. A promise to turn the final year
into a much more enjoyable stay than I ever imagined.
New blood.
Though not the kind that comes from a runway, or the kind that had
daddy’s wallet attached to her keychain. What I have set my eyes on was
much more valuable than any of the self-entitled Echo City princesses,
although value was the thing she probably lacked most… at least social value
that is. Definitely not an Elite since the girl just got off the community bus.
I couldn’t tell for sure if she was from the Pit either. She didn’t carry
that dull, shineless face people down there usually do. On the contrary, she
had a certain glimmer in her eyes, like coming to this place just brought her
hope.
