"As a day well spent brings happy sleep, so a life well spent brings happy death."

In the middle of the night, I had woken up, feeling sweat dripping down my body, I had to get up to let some fresh air hit me,
149Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTi9ErkWAin
Once I opened my curtains to open the windows, I realized it isn't the middle of the night, the sun hadn't risen yet, but I could see the shine of it already,
149Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmxNOoaTXDb
I opened the windows and let in a deep breath,
149Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgOVwl3TgKj
The cold air grazed my soft cheeks as if they were daggers against them,
149Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPmgUBLyqRd
I had tried to stretch while I was in front of the window, but an unsettling feeling had set in again,
149Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxRqJw56IXu
My body was being conscious of its surrounding, even the sunrise couldn't help to make the feeling of being watched less creepy,
149Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdNOsbSNaU4
I had a very bad feeling deep in my gut,
149Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoxIHZSzxhj
and my guts are usually right,
149Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnm8L6Fm8Tr
the cold fresh air swooshed my hair around, I didn't fail to catch sight of something move deep in the shadows in the forest, it was a place that belonged to Cian, who other than Cian could be there?
149Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYwWBbazzYf
It could have been simply Cian there, but that's not the feeling I would have gotten if he had secretly watched me,
149Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPw6sU21Rf2
No, this feeling was not a pleasant one,
149Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwLJfknQoek
This one is when your every action is watched to see a flaw in, so they could attack once there is an opening,
149Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLJn309K302
With the eerie air of the unknown wrapped around me, I pulled my black cloak out, hiding my whole body to not be identified, I pulled my big hood over my head, I decided to crawl out of my window with my twin blades attached to my wrists,
149Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKW8xAdxmFm
The moment my feet were about to touch the ground, I had whispered a spell to slowly put me on the ground.
149Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7mzgUXtj2y
Easy spells could be learned having the right amount of power even for a human, so I could easily do this anytime, it was quicker than walking,
149Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQrWIiu9nhY
Looking around, I slowly crept through the shadows of the forest,
149Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7mTHCLwWcH
The forest was darker than the outside since the sun hasn't risen yet, but to begin with, the forest looked like a place where no sun could shine through, the trees were overgrown, if you were barefoot you would feel the wild plants around your toes, very uncomfortably, I had no idea how Cian could shift here,
149Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb8dQNnIk1m
The trees swooshed and swayed as a strong wind passed through the silent forest, I had arrived at a small clearing, making my way to the middle,
149Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwd4YdRz7Ch
I had nothing to lose, and I sure as hell wasn't scared of anyone,
149Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkY7jkMghpv
I closed my eyes momentarily as I felt a presence surrounding me,
149Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpognzkrQ8q
I opened my eyes under my hood, they could never identify me unless I willed it, of course in this case it wouldn't work for Cian, but this wasn't Cian,
149Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCIDcJ7PBHG
They were other creatures,
149Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡquKupd327d
There were 5 of them, at least 5 that I could see,
149Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgROPKhyzH7
By the looks of it, the first one was a vampire, she had her fangs bare and her pale complexion gave it away, her red eyes glistening in the dark,
149Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9G1qPrl50i
The second one was a werewolf, his half shifted body had gave away his identity as did his bulkiness,
149Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5XytZn5d51
The third one was a curious one, I hadn't seen one face to face, but his skin had been scaly like a fish, if I had to guess he came from the ocean, a merman,
149Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuXsf4GBfn1
The fourth one had a dark complexion, she was beautiful with grey eyes and fiery hair, the dark skin and fiery hair had given her identity away too,
149Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc27xa14wGy
Now the fifth one, her stare alone was icy, her blue eyes, white hair, her whole body looked like she came out of ice. She wasn't exactly hard to guess.
149Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGjJJeOhd4z
What they didn't know is that who they are facing isn't as kind as king Cian,
149Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWlj8nV7PYK
They all suddenly lunged at me,
149Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX104JoeEcz
these amateurs,
149Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZTNhLk9SEV
Smirking under my hood, I instantly stuck one of my twin blades in the head that belonged to the fire lady, and as she stared at her friends in shock, I had used her head as a way to get myself out of the group killing strategy, it just happened to be that I thought I needed a good grip to flip out of the group of idiots,
149Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvwxRE3FHSX
The werewolf screamed in agony,
149Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡernq8OVMAk
"Oh, so that was your mate" I answered with humor in my voice to taunt him,
149Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe6Nus6Vz2m
An expression of hatred rose through his eyes, he lunged at me, aiming for my heart,
149Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrXpdqsrq6F
I bet he thinks he could get my heart out,
149Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡULk12BZUaK
Without moving from my place, I grabbed his other hand and cut of the one reaching towards my chest, the hand toppled away on the ground as he screamed in pain, this time for his hand,
149Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY0oDCKT6jA
"What is your business here, who dares to enter his majesty's property"
149Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkeBXhPrGJ7
As the three others watched me, slowly backing away, trying to make it as secret as they could, shook their heads in terror as my other blade had met his right eye, my sharp blade stuck in his skull momentarily, I had managed to get his eye out of its sockets, the eye had stuck to my blade as I used my other hand to get it off of my blade,
149Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdqg8Lj21OS
I let him go, I wanted him to die slower than the others, to think there is hope for him that he would survive,
149Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTI4hUBXgy1
I ran towards the other three as they turned back to run away from me,
149Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLj9te0KZqm
I had stabbed one of them quickly in the back where his spine was, then pushed him away hard on the ground, his head meeting a lucky rock, knocking him out instantly while he slowly bled out,
149Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPNXLDSPYCi
The two other girls had been running next to each other, pulling each other to run quicker than the other in hope to distract me, little did they know they are both in the palm of my hands,
149Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKK0OrilGRU
I had quickly jumped towards them and caught up with them, I grabbed their hairs and slammed their heads to each others', one of them quickly passed out while the other one fell to the ground,
149Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8zG3KZ8OfZ
"Answer my fucking question, lowlife"
149Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWicD0eXZrP
The white haired girl coldly stared at me, life slowly draining from her, her eyes rolled back as her mouth hung open with foam building up in her mouth,
149Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfdYBdSWz9m
She was dead,
149Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjoBCPIBXWk
I looked around her body, as I saw her hand clutching around something tightly,
149Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTR7Knkpt3Z
I pried it open with so much force, cutting myself in the process,
149Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdhILUQDSR1
She had a syringe in her palm with it completely empty, a drop of poison had seeped into my new wound,
149Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXV9od7ofXc
It was nothing I couldn't handle, but it was going to hurt regardless,
149Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVLapT9crzW
I threw her away as I slowly stood up, the wind hitting my sweaty skin,
149Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhFcuu22ryk
the wind had grown warmer so it seemed like it was past sunrise,
149Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgaWBwkmNym
My hood slightly revealed my nose and lips, still covering my eyes, I didn't have to worry, it was coated with magic, my identity was hidden,
149Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb3S75uuOp8
I heard a crunch behind me, and the small whiff of my mate's scent had hit me,
149Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBJgAXBAzjP
Cian was here and a magic cloak is not going to work on him,
149Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSytn2CmOk4
I was a great distance away, he shouldn't be able to smell my scent, especially mixed with the masking scent I have on me, but I couldn't risk it,
149Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq6QVVHUsyF
I pulled my hood down further as my cloak swayed around with the wind, I couldn't risk it, he could catch my scent with how strong the wind is,
149Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2qfOGBLdZA
As quick as I had appeared, I had disappeared just as quickly, catching a brief sight of Cian as I made eye contact from afar with him, his godly carved face set into a dangerous scowl as he tried to catch me,
149Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTvyjsH7WrZ
But I was gone,
149Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4JTz5Ava7n
