The New Mystic Realm

The beginning Part 1

Zach's POV

My name is Zach Erebus. I am 20 years old and the leader of the Mayhems.

Okay, that might be a little confusing, let me take you back to the beginning. When I was born I was praised for being the heir to my mother's dark thrown. Which I did not want. Anyways, I lived my life to the fullest, getting anything and everything I wanted. Until I was eight years old. About a month after my eighth birthday I caught my father, Keith, cheating on my mother with a MAN. I did not blame him, my mother never really showed him any affection. At that point he was honestly more of a slave than a husband. It's how he dealt with it is what made me hate him. Instead of sitting down with my mother and having at least a semi-civilized conversation, he screamed at her, telling her that he never really loved her. He said that she was the reason that he was gay.

I had no problem with his sexuality, but I thought that he was better than that. That he wouldn't be a cruel as my mother, no matter what she had done to him. I ended up screaming at him, telling him to leave and never come back because he was now no longer apart of this family. My family.

Ever since then my mother has hated gays.

Okay, now that you know that, we can get into the juicy stuff.

Two years later, on my tenth birthday, it was decided that I would be married to a girl belonging to a very wealthy family. Her name was Julia. I did not have a problem with Julia what so ever, I just did not find her... attractive? Is that the right world to use? I'm not sure, but I didn't like her. Well I did but as a friend and nothing more.

She had tried to kiss me several times but she only succeeded once. My first kiss. I did not mind it, I guess, it just didn't feel... right. Eventually she asked if she could be my girlfriend. I said yes. But only because I didn't want to have to deal with my mother.

About a year after that I got my first crush. Let's just say it was not Julia...

His name was Zen. He was twelve, just like me. I found him EXTREMELY attractive. And I was hoping that he felt the same way because after about a month after meeting him, I kissed him. To my surprise, he kissed back. Let me just tell you, he was a GREAT kisser.

A little while after that happened, I talking to my mom about Julia and how I didn't like her, and didn't want to date her. Also to my surprise, she understood and told me it was okay. I ended up breaking up with Julia the next day, and getting together with Zen. I didn't tell my mother about Zen of course. She wouldn't have excepted me, especially because of what happened with my father.

I got away with dating Zen until I was fourteen. My mother ended up walking in on Zen and I while we were kissing. She pulled him away from me and screamed at him to get the hell out of her house. Zen ran, and I cried watching his terrified self not even look back at me once. My first love gone, in a blink of an eye because of my father and his stupid boyfriend. Wait, no. Because of my psychopath of a mother and her hatred for gays. I cried, and cried, and cried... I didn't even realize that while I was crying, my mother, had put a curse on me.

A curse that would change my life forever.
