Wolf's Blood

Chapter 1

Ram Pov

I survived my first day, as I'm about to pack up my stuff I see some of the senior walk into the classroom. They tell us to meet at the cheer hall in 30 minutes for our first hazing meeting.

Damn it, I just wanted to go home for the evening and find the time to review my notes from today's lecture. And put together some leftover food for the stray dogs near my house, but I guess that would have to wait.

I sigh and get ready to go with the other students in my class.

As I stand by the desk to get my name tag, I see a movement in the corner of my eye and a senior catches my attention. He's handsome, with black hair framing his face and a checkered bag hanging over his shoulder. I smile and walk into the hall to sit down and wait for the hazers.

About ten minutes pass before I hear the door to the hall open and steps enter the huge room. As I raise my head I see seven people standing at the elevated stage. The second year's had gone to the side of the room to give them space, and they were standing quietly observing their seniors in fear.

There he is, the guy I saw earlier. I can't really pin what makes me feel this, and I can't even explain what I'm feeling. However what I do know is that I have a lot coming for me this year.

I kept my eyes on him during the whole meeting and there were several times I saw him take a glance at me. It's kind of weird actually, why would he even show any interest in me of all people.

It was like time went by so much slower than usual, every second almost felt like a full minute and I just wanted to go home.

30 minutes later the head hazer, Bohn told us that the meeting was over and the hazers walked out, but before we had the chance to go out the second year's told us that those who hadn't gotten their name tags could go to the desk and get them before leaving.

I see maybe ten or fifteen people go in the direction of the desk while the rest of us walk outside, as I exit the doors I think I see a glimpse of the guy again, is he stalking me? Or am I just imagining things?

I take a turn and walk in the direction of the parking lot, I'm carrying a small box with some of my left overs from lunch which I place down on the ground, I take a look around me to see if I can find something to have a bit of water in.

As I look around I see an empty cup show up in the side view over my shoulder, I take it without looking at who was giving it to me. As I look up to thank the person I see that guy again. I give him a slight bow and try to ignore the fact that he is standing right behind me.

When the stray dog I was feeding comes I only hear a loud voice behind me yell out and see the guy jump onto a nearby table.

"Oh God, I'm terrified of dogs!! I thought you were going to feed some stray cats or something."

After several attempts of getting me to talk an in general being annoying I pat the head of the dog, get up on my feet and tell it to take it's time getting done. I don't know why, but although I find him annoying, I don't mind having him around, and I kind of want to get to know him.

But at least I was left with his name this time... P'King...

×××

Over the next few days I see P'King around campus, he's tried to talk to me, but every time I try to avoid him. Except for the one time I was studying on a bench outside and he came by. He ended up helping me explain some of the concepts and stuff. We ended up exchanging Line, but that was about it.

My mind flashes back to that day, I saw something, something I shouldn't have seen. That day, when P'King was frightened by the dog, when he jumped in fear onto the table his eyes changed. For a split second, almost unnoticeable they turned a slightly yellow color.
