In our world, submissives can be bought and traded like monopoly properties. Some submissives are lucky to find a happily ever after, but most bounce from owner to owner. Roughly 55% of the world's population is made up of submissives. The other 45% are Dominants. A dom can easily find themselves a sub, but everyone looks for something different in their charge. Subs are sent to a special school when they turn 17, spending the next year being trained to be the best sub possible. How to please their handler. They graduate the school on their 18th birthday, being put up on an online catalog for available subs. Most are bought within a few weeks, but for the ones who don't, they're labeled a self-owned sub on their 19th birthday. Self-owned subs have the rights a dom does; allowed full-time jobs, allowed to open bank accounts, and even allowed to buy property. An everyday sub, one who's in someone else's hands, is not allowed to do those things. They're allowed to work a part-time job with their doms permission. That's as far as sub rights go besides the normal rights you get as a human.

She didn't have a choice. The S shaped birthmark on her neck said so.
Elliana kept eyes on the catalogs for Demi since her 18th birthday. She watched the picture sit there day after day until her 19th, when the picture was removed. Demi was a self-owned sub. Elliana ran her fingers over the D on her ankle, anxious. The world was brutal. but when she herself turned 19, she took off for the USA, looking yo start her own life, as a Dom, one who was trained at home and certified by 16. And she was on a mission.
