"Are you the only applicant to the Mountain Lovers Club this year?" the man in front of you looks you over with sharp, mismatched eyes until you feel bare under his searching gaze.

"Um, yeah, I think so..." you squirm a little, uncomfortable with the way he stared so intently at you, "Sorry..."

The man smiles and you're met with a row of needle-sharp teeth and a soft laugh. You're beginning to regret your choice to join when the older student says, "You're the first applicant to my club."

"Really?" you were surprised. A club about hiking in the mountains would've been a hit where you came from. It was hard to believe that, in such a big school, you were the only other person to show interest.

"I'm Jade Leech, and you must be..." the man took a moment to look over your club application, his gloved hand resting on his bottom lip as he read your information, "...(Y/n)? Is that how you say it?" you nodded and he continued, "That's quite a beautiful name."

"Thanks," you replied bashfully.

Jade's smile widened as he folded your application into a small square and tucked it away in his pocket. He held out his hand to you and you shook it, surprised by the firm gentleness of his grip. There was something about him, something unsettling yet oddly magnetic...

"If I may ask, what attracted you to my club?" Jade asked, his polite tone barely containing his excitement.

You laughed nervously, "I've always loved hiking and being in nature. It helps me clear my mind and relax."

"Is that so?" Jade's mismatched eyes narrowed slightly, "The mountains can indeed be very... relaxing. But they can also be very dangerous."

You nodded, feeling a little uneasy, but you quickly brushed that feeling away, "I'm sure I'll be in good hands with you as my guide."

The words came out more flirtatious than you meant it to and Jade's grin turned positively predatory, "Oh, you certainly will be. I'll make sure of it."

Before you could think to respond, he stepped closer to you. His presence seemed to take over the entire empty classroom. His hand moved to your shoulder and squeezed it lightly in what was meant to be a reassuring gesture.

"I must admit," Jade's voice dropped to a whisper as he leaned in to speak into the shell of your ear, "I'm glad you're the only applicant. It gives me the opportunity to pour my sole focus into you... to ensure you receive the best experience possible, of course."

The way he said experience sent a chill down your spine. You couldn't help but feel like there was more meaning to his words than he led on. Before you could worry about it too much, Jade stepped back, suddenly smiling calmly and casually at you, as though the moment of intensity had never happened.

"I will see you tomorrow on our first hike of the school year," the smile on his face did not reach his eyes this time, "Make sure to dress warmly. The mountains can be... unpredictable."

Maybe you were crazy to stay in the club. Problem was, you weren't the type of person to give up, and this was really the only club you had any interest in. Still, you recognized that there was potentially something wrong with your club leader and made sure to pack a can of pepper spray just in case.
