Present day.
Now you get it? I had no option. I lost everything at that point. Chris was my only friend. I hadn't lost him we became best friends again.
But the world felt different. I had become soft. The first day of class in college was hellfire.
Flashback to first day of college.
"I don't want to go! Most of my classmates are in the same college as me! They are going to see me."
"Ronin they are going to get used to it."
"You're saying this because you're not the one who is paralyzed."
"Ronin—"
"Enough!"
My mum helped me get out of the car and I stayed there waiting for Chris to show up. He arrived a little late and pushed me around like I was helpless. I hated the fact that all those stupid kids I bullied in our year group were there.
Some ridiculed me. I was on the verge on getting up and punching them.
Oh wait, I was paralyzed. Lucky motherfuckers.
I felt like one of the losers back in high school. Chris and I had the same class thankfully. Class went by in a jiffy.
I just wanted to go back home because I felt helpless. I felt weak. I saw all those pretty girls and I couldn't move to them.
Chris left me at some part of the day so I was alone. I rolled myself to the library to get away from all those losers whom I bullied in school.
"Hey can I help you?" One of the nerd girls in the library asked.
"I'm fine. I don't need your help." I rolled away to one of the bookshelves.
"I just wanted to help."
"Why are you following me? I don't need help from some nerd."
"I know what can calm you down."
She holds my hand and rubs it. I pull it away from hers.
"Don't you understand? Are you dumb or something? I want to be alone!"
I think I went to far with that but she gave up. I hate nerdy girls. They just don't know anything aside their books. They read a lot but can't read on how to kiss or how to please a boy.
Hey I'm just saying, if you read a lot then you should know more than those girls.
Chris came for me and took me to the study area in the library.
"So apparently we've gotten a tutor. There she is." He said pointing to the girl I was rude to.
Oh crap!
She came up to us and I could feel her eyes burning a hole through my head.
"Ronin this is Annaleah. Annaleah this is my best friend Ronin."
"Nice to meet you." She said reaching her hand forward for a handshake.
As I said I hated nerd girls so I didn't shake her.
"Are you really going to leave her hanging?"
"I thought that was so obvious."
"It's okay Chris, maybe he's having a bad day." She said opening the book she placed in front of her.
"I'm having a bad life."
Present,day.
The first day was just a hell hole. Annaleah was just a pain in the butt. She became a part of our friend group but I still didn't like her because she was a nerd.
I don't have anything against nerds but they think they know everything but they don't. If I were to mark their sexual life I'd give them 0%. They didn't know how to do anything.
Every nerd girl also liked me at night. They couldn't even suck a simple cock. Speaking of that, let's see how and why I made the deal.
Flashback
Several weeks had passed since I started college. I was tired of life. I was tired of everything. I was now a loser in the school. How won't they see me see me to be a nerd when I have someone like Annaleah in my friend group. My life had turned from most popular kid in school to the only kid in school in a wheelchair.
I was so angry. I was fighting all the tears that had been held back since the day I heard I was paralyzed. I was strong. At least that's what I thought. I've had the most bad luck in my life. My dad died in a car accident and his body was so torn apart they couldn't mend it together.
My mum married another man who was awfully rich. He also died in his sleep which is a mystery till now. So we practically inherited his money and firms.
Chris's mum and mine went on a holiday but Chris's mum never came back, she died there.
Since then everyone has been pointing fingers at my mum for being bad luck. So my step-sister decided to go to school outside the country to be away from her.
I rolled down to the room my step-dad prohibited me and my step sister from going to. I always wondered what was in the room.
I pushed the knob and rolled into the room. I switched on the lights and there were lots of candles and a huge book on a table in the middle of the room.
What the fuck is all this?
Was this his secret study room or something. I rolled over to the table and opened the book. I flipped through the book and all the pages but one was blank.
There was a writing which I didn't understand. I read the words aloud and the room went dark. I rolled around the room to find the exit but I realized I was going in circles.
The book lit itself on fire.
Yep. Call me crazy but it did.
I tried to act all manly and went over to the table and tried to close the book but it didn't.
I'm still manly you know. That just wasn't my moment.
A red being came out of the book but I could see half of his body. The rest was in the book I guess.
"Why have you summoned me?"
"Summoned? What are you?"
"You're telling me you don't know what I am Ronin?
"How did you know my name?"
"I know everyone. I am your worst nightmare."
"I'm not scared of you or that circus act you just performed. Besides you live in a book."
"I know you aren't scared of me. I don't live in that book. You summoned me through the book."
"Who are you? The devil?"
"Yes."
"Why is this book here? Was my step father using it to summon you? Wait is all his money from you? We're you the one who killed him?"
"Yes, yes, yes and no. You see I didn't kill him per se. It was all part of the deal."
"Which deal?"
"He sold his soul to me in exchange for wealth. We made a deal that he will give his soul to me after 5 years of enjoying it."
"I want you to take my life. I don't care about life nor any deal. Just take it. I want to die. I can't live life anymore."
"Killing you is like doing you a favour. I don't do favours. Either I take your soul after you ask for something or take the soul of a friend of yours."
"Wait has my mum been here too?"
"No. If you're thinking about Chris's mum then it was your dad. He killed her to lengthen his years. He ended up enjoying the wealth with two more extra years."
I was so angry when I heard that. How could he? Her death caused Chris so much pain.
"I don't want any deal." I said rolling myself out of the room.
"What if I said I could make you walk again?" He said making me stop in my tracks.
"What do you mean?"
"Since you don't want to live anymore, I can give you your legs back but for a year. After a year, I take your soul."
"I don't want to walk anymore I want to not live anymore. I don't care about my legs. I don't know what I'm living for anymore."
"What if I also told you that you'll become every girl's dream and no girl in this world will be able to resist you. They will all trample at your feet. Isn't that what you've wanted your whole life?"
"I mean—"
"I know that's what you want Ronin. I know everything you've ever wanted Ronin. I can make that happen. Just come close to the book and place one finger in the fire."
Honestly that was exactly what I wanted.
"These are the rules. You can only walk at night and no one will be able to recognize you. You will become a sex god and you can love anyone you want except a girl with angel blood."
"It's a deal."
"Since you don't enjoy life anymore, I will take it after a year."
I knew this was going to cost my mum great pain but I didn't want to live anymore. I rolled straight to the fire and placed my finger in the fire.
"It is done."
