-o- In the Wolf's Arms –o-

.bloody marionette.

Sakura ran off to a private island to meet her fiancé. But instead, she found herself trapped in her sworn high school nightmare, Li Syaoran's vacation house. "Glad to disappoint you. My cousin just decided to disappear again." Is she really disappointed to be in the wolf's arms?

Prologue: Stupid

Li Syaoran is a mess.

Yes, that's right. Tomorrow is his high school graduation day yet he's wandering around the school campus with an unreadable mood. Or you could say he's in shock.

'How could've that happened?'

Earlier that day, when he's about to call his current girl for the graduation practice, you could've said that he's such a lucky bastard for actually catching Tomoe snogging a junior. Yes, a JUNIOR!

His girl was two-timing him with a JUNIOR!

Wait, erase that. EX is the right term. As in no longer.

And that's how he ended up strolling in his beloved alma mater. He's not in the mood for a stupid practice. What's important is he graduates and he can finally leave behind his cursed ex.

Tomoe is stupid for dumping the Li Syaoran for an equally stupid junior.

Damn that bi-----

Wack!

Now that's what you call stupid.

For Li Syaoran just got accidentally hit by a volley ball.

o-----o

It's the day before the seniors get to graduate and the upperclassmen are busy with preparations. Sakura and her friends are just among the lucky juniors who get to loiter around. They are so lucky to be out in the grounds to play volleyball.

And that's when unluckiness found them.

She wasn't able to control the ball's power and it went straight to an innocent passerby. 'Stupid.'

"Oh my God! I think you killed him, Sakura!" Chiharu yelled.

Rika and Tomoyo are already scrambling on their feet to reach her victim. Sakura wanted to just disappear by that moment. She may be athletic but she's still known to attract accident.

"Hmmm…it looks like you just killed one of the wanted guys in this school. Congrats, friend," Rika told her.

"He's kinda cute. Too bad, Sakura wasted one of God's greatest creations," Tomoyo added which just made Sakura feel worse.

She followed the girls as they tried to inspect the man's damage. She bit her lip. The guy looks like a senior and she's in for trouble. Just her luck to cause trouble when the guy is about to bid adieu to this school.

"Hey, it looks like he's about to join the living."

Sakura kneeled beside the man, ready to apologize. But in doing so, she found herself mesmerized by him. He has unruly chocolate brown hair and a pair of inviting lips. His face looks like it's carved by the greatest sculpture. He's quite tan and anyone can tell that he's got a hunk's body.

'Hmmm…he looks so gorgeous in his sleep…' she remarked as she moves her face closer to inspect his face.

o-----o

Syaoran tried to open his face despite the searing pain. Tomoe is really stupid! She's the reason why this happened to him! He now realized that he really should start looking for a new girl in his life.

An indeed, an angel came.

As he opened his eyes, an angelic face greeted him. Her emerald eyes look worried and concerned. Wow, heaven is already answering his prayers.

He wanted to know her better so he suddenly tried to get up. He didn't notice how close the distance between their faces was.

Their lips touched.

He must be in heaven; he got the chance to kiss such sweet lips.

But the next thing he knew is a powerful slap, much powerful than the ball's impact, on his face and the world blacken again.

The angel's red angry face as the last thing he saw…

o-----o

A/N

So how was that? In the Wolf's Arms is my comeback story after such long long long long long long long long months of absence (even though the Prologue is short hehe) . Actually, I thought of quitting writing fiction. I'm so busy with my senior year and I can't find time to write. But I just love you guys so much!

Thanks to a certain Pinay reviewer (you know who you are girl ) and I was possessed or something to visit my account and read all my stories' reviews and indeed reviews inspire. I also admit I missed those friends I met last year through reviews: myxavier, secret24, musette fujiwara, chibi angelle, lilcherryblossomwolf and others who painted my days of writing. I also want to acknowledge those who have added me in their Alerts (I would like to request, if you don't mind, to please drop any short word through reviews so I can acknowledge and converse with you properly). Arigatou.

I dedicate this to nOYPIlYKu!!! Sana you can tell me your name )

Hehe pretty long talk eh? Hope you'll like this new story of mine which I assure you much better than the rest.

Mwahugzzy,

Shajira
