Chapter 4 🌹🌹

"My clothes were messed up and a kind lady helped me out...I'm sorry if it inconvenienced you..I'll have them dry cleaned and return". I murmured to the guy who just got into the room and exuded an intimidating attitude.

He was the 'Rhett' that Xander talked about and no doubt Angel Kim's brother that she came to visit.

He scoffed after hearing me and went towards his bunk..

"You aren't thinking I'm going to put on those clothes again, are you?".

"What's that supposed to mean?". I asked in return.

"You can keep them".

He said, taking off the black leather jacket he was putting on..

Then, he took off his shirt.

I looked away quickly.

Can things get any worser?

"Put 'em back on dude". I murmured shielding my poor eyes.

"Too hot to handle?". He asked.

He heard huh?

And...Tch...he's full of himself...such a turn off.

I removed my hand from shielding my eyes to look at him...

"......"

"....."

Holy sweet toodoos...

Wait! The school allow those tatts?

How can a human have so many tattoos?

I also got to see his face fully.

Boy got him some piercings.

Lip, ears and....wait that's an eye piercing!

This freak has a piercing just below his right eyebrow.

I felt my nose itch me and I sniffed in continuously to relieve myself.

Just then, I felt something liquid trail out of my nose and I wiped it with my palm.

Bringing my palm to my face, my eyes were wide opened in horror...

Blood?!!

The fuck is happening right now?

I quickly snatched the hanky on my bunk and pressed it against my nose.

You've got to be kidding me...

Stupid hormones.

Later at night....

There was a commotion outside the hostel and I awakened from my sleep.

"What's going on?". Xander asked, yawning as he also sat upright.

Axel and Rhett were next...

There was a loud bang on the door, the very next minute.

"Open up sleeping beauties...the time has come".

Someone yelled from outside.

"We want the fresh blood!".

"We want the fresh blood!".

They kept yelling from outside...

Fresh blood?

I cleaned my drowsy eyes and got back under the comfort of my blanket... uninterested in whatever was happening.

I was really jealous of how undisturbed and relaxed Owen was.

He was still sleeping peacefully even as the noise was so disturbing.

"We won't leave until we have the fresh blood!!".

"Hand over the fresh blood!!".

"What are they talking about?". I asked when I couldn't bear it anymore.

"They want to begin a ritual process". Xander replied.

"For what?".

"To initiate new members into the cult".

"Why are they banging on the door? If they want to do their demonic act, they should go do it somewhere far away from here". I was irritated.

"They want you". He suddenly blurted.

"Why would they want me?".

"To initiate you into the cult....it's the normal ritual process for new students".

"Yeah right". I rolled my eyes.

"That's bullshit".

"It's compulsory". He said.

"I'll pass". I replied and got under my blanket.

I heard the door knob turn and I was alarmed.

I took a peep and Rhett was actually at the door.

"Wh..what are you doing?". I asked, stuttering.

The door was yanked open and he walked out, ignoring me.

A dozen of guys rushed in at the slight chance and one pointed at me.

"You there! Fresh blood right?".

I was so confused and pissed.

"Grab him!".

Two guys rushed towards my bunk side and grabbed me by both of my arms, then pulled me up from the bed.

"Get off me!". I snapped at them.

"You are summoned to the hall of darkness". The one who seemed to be the leader said and my eyes diverted to the group of boys outside the dorm.

They were putting on only boxers and had their hands tied behind them.

They also seemed to be new students.

Prolly on scholarship too.

"Strip him!...bind him!".

Colour drained from my face when he asked for me to be stripped.

I struggled with the guys who held me and tried to wriggle free from their grip.

"Don't fuckin' touch me!". I snarled.

"Strip him!".

I dug my teeth into the flesh of the one who made to take off my shirt.

He yelped out in pain, startling the rest and I took the chance in kicking the other one who held my other arm where the sun doesn't shine.

He stooped low to the ground, grinding his teeth in pain.

I could also feel his pain but I had to do what I did so I could live.

I pushed the one I bit to the ground and the next minute...I didn't have to be told to...RUN!

I was currently at another location that I had no idea about.

The place was too dark and I had to grope through the dark before I could find my way.

I silently wished I wouldn't bump into something dangerous and get myself injured.

I found hope when my eyes caught some flashlights ahead of me.

Some people seemed to be approaching my direction.

Then, a thought occured to me.

What if it's the night guard on watch and he finds me roaming around the place?

Just when I was about to hide....

The flashlight was pointed at me.

"Hey!".

I didn't wait to see if it was the night guard or not, I reversed my steps and wanted to run but bumped into something..

"Oww!". I cried out as I hit my head pretty hard on whatever it was.

"How did it go Lucien?".

I heard someone say and footsteps approaching me.

They finally got to me and were pointing the flashlight to see who I was and what was happening...

"You're heavy". A murmur came from beneath me and I found out that moment that I had indeed bumped into a human and not a thing...

Plus, I was currently ontop of him.

"Mi-an-hae". I murmured, embarrassed and stood up quietly.

He was the guy I met at the locker room earlier.

Lucien.

"This is the second time I'm falling because of you". He said standing up and dusting his clothes.

"I didn't know you were behind me".

I said in defense.

"You know this dude?". One of the two guys with the flashlights asked Lucien.

"No". He replied and smirked at me.

"I don't even know your name...tell me, what's your name".

I bowed my head, apologizing once more then walked away.

"What's with the attitude? I just want to know your name bro". He shouted after me.

"Where's he? Find the new kid from hall 2 dorm 1".

"He went that way".

It sounded like the group of boys who were after me.

Shit!

What should I do?

I bit on my lip.... pondering on how to escape...

Without thinking twice, I reversed again and ran towards Lucien and the others.

I grabbed a confused looking Lucien by the wrist.

"Lucien right?". I asked as though I didn't know his name.

He was so confused that he didn't know what to say.

"I'm Luca..." I said and smiled.

"Let's go". I pulled him, heading into the dark.

"What's up?". He finally asked..

"What's the problem?".

"Nothing...I just want to know your room...let's go to your dorm". I replied.

Silence befell us...

The guys with the flashlights were also stunned.
