Tales of Hex

King of the school

Authors note: So there's a major time-skip now. Marcus and his best friends (Maggie, Oran, Tommy and Alan) are now in their third year so they are 15 years old. Marcus still hasn't talked to Ezra (you'll see why in this chapter) and nothing really eventful has happened. This chapter will be more about Ezra's pov. That's about it. Enjoy!

The bell rang and kids started pouring through the hallways. The sea of teenagers eventually ended up on the playground. Among those teenagers was Ezra. He was tall with long blonde hair that flowed past his shoulders. His piercing blue eyes peered out over the crowd. Despite the "girly" hair he had an intimidating presence. His broad shoulders and muscular build instantly showed people that he wasn't to be messed with.

Ezra had the reputation of "top dog" or "alpha wolf", depending on who you asked. I don't want to say that he was a gang leader but he did have control over a lot of things. He pretty much ruled the school at this point. He ruled over his peers and used fear and violence to control their actions. He hadn't actually planned for any of this. He hadn't meant to get this much power in his school but he didn't really mind.

It started mid-way through his first year in middle school. He already was known as a trouble maker because of his antics in primary school. He already had a pack of people that followed him around like a bunch of brainless sheep. They thought that they would be safe from getting beat up if they were loyal to him. Which was mostly true. At some point one of his followers got into an argument with an aggressive second year. He was the most popular kid in school at the time and got pleasure out of picking on measly first years.

Ezra didn't find it that funny though. He was always ready to defend his pack members even if he didn't like them. Loyalty is a highly valued trait in the dragon community so Ezra was taught to always protect those who were loyal to him. The second year however didn't back down and kept poking fun at Ezra's followers.

Eventually Ezra had enough of this childishness and he decided to settle it like real men. With their fists. Long story short Ezra beat the crap out of this guy. He got detention for a month but he didn't mind since it meant that he had to spend less time at home.

This accident landed him a top the school hierarchy. After all high school was kind of like prison. If you beat up the toughest guy you take his place as the most feared guy there. People were scared of him and joined his pack out of fear.

He wasn't one for misusing his power though. He only beat up people who "deserved it". For example bullies or cheating boyfriends. His "empire" spread because of his good deeds and he ended up with control over the entire school. Everyone practically bowed before him. It was fun at first but eventually it just got boring.

That's why he expanded to outside of the school. He spent a lot of time just walking around town with his closest pack members that he would sometimes even consider friends. They would hang around the skatepark smoking or drinking. Ezra didn't even like doing this. He only smoked when other smokers were around and he never said yes when one of his dogs (which is what he calls his followers) would offer him drugs.

Eventually he took over the entire skatepark, which wasn't that difficult because he was actually a really good skater and all the regulars at the park admired his talent. Once he took control of them it didn't take much for his name to spread trough the town. He got the nickname dragon of the street because of his last name (Wyvern).

The most difficult part of being the leader was that he had to keep his dogs from doing anything that was actually illegal. Like when they would shoplift, Ezra would pick-pocket the goods from them and return it to the store. He hated doing illegal things and he definitely didn't want to go to jail or get arrested. If that happened his dad would actually kill him.

Luckily he didn't have to rule his "kingdom" on his own though. He always had his trusty right hand Flora of Athene. She was quite short and had frizzy black hair that ended at her shoulders. She was quite feisty though and incredibly rich. Her dad is the ceo of a giant tech company called "Athena", and since she was an only child she was bound to take over the company eventually. She was also outstandingly smart (much like Ezra). She was an owl and a prodigy when it came to magic. I mean she invented a new form of teleportation when she was only 9?!

The two had met in primary school. Flora had just moved from the UK and her father had enrolled her in the same school that Ezra went to. They quickly became friends considering that they were the smartest in their class and Flora was completely unaffected (and unaware) of Ezra's reputation. (Owls and dragons also have a tendency to get along well). Flora would often use her magic to heal the mysterious bruises that would always be scattered on Ezra's skin. She didn't ask questions tho which the boy greatly appreciated.

Nowadays the two were always together. Ezra would control his dogs with violence while Flora controlled them with temptation. She would always wear revealing outfits and make suggestive poses in front of the boys. And when they listened she would reward them by sleeping with them. Almost the entire school new this and called her a slut. She owned up to this name tho. Her nickname on the street became the sirene or in some cases the dragons whore.

Flora was one of the only four people Ezra had ever cared about. The first two being his grandparents and the third being...Marcus. He missed him. He missed having an actual friend that he could play stupid games with for hours. But now he had Flora I guess.

Even though a lot of people thought that they were, Ezra and Flora weren't actually dating. They were just good friends. In fact Ezra had a girlfriend. He couldn't stand her but she was a pure blooded dragon from a noble Russian family so he put up with her bullshit. Despite her Russian heritage she had grown up in the same town as Ezra and they had gone to school together since kindergarten. She had always had a crush on the blonde boy but they had only been dating for 3 months.

Ezra felt ashamed for the fact that he had lost his virginity to that bitch. It lasted a single minute and he didn't even cum but it still counted, right? He wasn't really interested in sex anyway, I mean he never even masturbated. He knew girls were attracted to him (and he would use this to his advantage) but he just wasn't attracted to them. He preferred spending his time studying, playing baseball or playing piano. Relationships just seemed like an unnecessary distraction.

All of these points are why he was about to break up with that formless bag of air that people called his girlfriend. She only dated him for power anyway. He was done with her.
