Mystic Wolf

CHAPTER 1

Ryan slowly regained consciousness back to the realm of the living. He probably may have been unconscious for about two hours. Ryan found himself bound to a chair with hands behind his back and legs strongly tied with a rope. The gloomy atmosphere of where appeared to look like a cave, had the horrifying aura of the Dracula. “Where am I? Where is this place?” he thought to himself. 

 With a blurred vision, Ryan could barely see the three solitary figures that sat about five meters away in the dimly lit cave chatting loudly about their sexual exploits. One of the figures, who had barely uttered a word finally spoke up, “After we put an end to this menace still taking a nap over there, I will like to completely devote my attention to Luna”, he said. As if to seek for an approval from his peers, he slowly raised his head up and continued. “Luna is the hottest girl in school and I think I am in love with her. I believe we will make a …” “Luna, the new girl?” a deep voice sharply cut in. “Of course!” the quiet of the three retorted. 

An awkward silence immediately ensued with an exchange of glances by the other two figures. Like an echo, a deafening laughter suddenly erupted between the two as they rolled on the floor. Immediately, Ryan recognized the laughter of one of the three and the voices of the other two individuals. Who in Silverlake Academy wouldn’t recognize the annoying laughter of Astrid and the preying voices of Orion and Damien, the twins? They were popularly known as the ‘Notorious 3’. They usually derived joy in bullying other students and seeing them in pain. “Why?” This question remains on the lips of every student and till date, remains unanswered. It may be the affluence of their family that buys them the kind of immunity they have, or their intimidating 6’6 physical appearance, everyone to their opinions. 

Ryan and his best friend, Jake had always been the center target of their erroneous actions. On one particular occasion, Ryan had taken permission from the Mathematics teacher during an ongoing class to go answer the call of nature. As he walked majestically through the well-lit sterile hallway of Silverlake Academy, he met Jake who was also heading to the white house. Unknown to them, there was an impending doom awaiting their innocent selves. The Notorious 3 were surreptitiously hiding at the corner and before Ryan could exchange pleasantries with Jake, Boom… They were completely drenched from the water balloons that had just hit them.

Immediately, the hallway bell rang signaling the end of the class. The empty hallway was soon filled and to everyone’s surprise, there was Ryan and Jake standing mute in a completely messed up hallway. As if that wasn’t enough, the Notorious 3 had hidden some water balloons in their bag packs. There was nothing that could save them from a week’s detention as every piece of evidence pointed them as the culprits of School vandalism. 

Despite the personalities of the Notorious 3, they make girls dance to their tunes just by casting a stare into their souls. They are not to be blamed though. Which girl wouldn’t go head over heels for a guy whose physical presence commanded attention? The facial features, sharp jawlines framed a perfectly symmetrical face, adorned with expressive eyes that hold intensity capable of igniting a spark in the coldest of hearts. The dark falling tousled hair that adds a touch of rugged charm. The broad shoulders form a powerful frame, drawing the eyes to the well-defined contours of the chest and arms. The only difference in their physicality is the eyes least one would think they were siblings. Astrid had blue eyes, Orion, brown, and Damien, black.   These are features possessed by ‘Henry Cavill’. Even a guy would be ready to be gay for them.  

Damien could no longer stand the continuous annoying laughter of Astrid and Orion and exclaimed, “What the f*****g hell is funny right now you morons!” That caused them to laugh even more. After about five minutes of pissing Damien off, they got a hold of themselves. Orion spoke first.

“I think we all know that the word ‘love’ cannot be found in your dictionary. Girls are like toys to you and if there is anyone to fall in love among the three of us, you are definitely the last on the list.”
