"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,
229Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2Nna4Jrfty
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,
229Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRu7bLFuc0t
I opened the windows and let in a deep breath,
229Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd4l6fLq5Lo
The cold air grazed my soft cheeks as if they were daggers against them,
229Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm4CeMU9L6p
I had tried to stretch while I was in front of the window, but an unsettling feeling had set in again,
229Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAGuoiFxiM3
My body was being conscious of its surrounding, even the sunrise couldn't help to make the feeling of being watched less creepy,
229Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9dlZC4BIuP
I had a very bad feeling deep in my gut,
229Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkJCOgyMe5a
and my guts are usually right,
229Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLpgne7vuBd
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?
229Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTPnoXu5HVn
It could have been simply Cian there, but that's not the feeling I would have gotten if he had secretly watched me,
229Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8IYxlePgsz
No, this feeling was not a pleasant one,
229Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7ACMIORPfB
This one is when your every action is watched to see a flaw in, so they could attack once there is an opening,
229Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTCAEgoIqdy
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,
229Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCbvNzZGJiB
The moment my feet were about to touch the ground, I had whispered a spell to slowly put me on the ground.
229Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5dIS4o9riO
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,
229Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLK8f2Ph72i
Looking around, I slowly crept through the shadows of the forest,
229Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf6w7gn4j5m
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,
229Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOKs4M363qR
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,
229Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiEe9DIyCKl
I had nothing to lose, and I sure as hell wasn't scared of anyone,
229Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP7LlEluaVI
I closed my eyes momentarily as I felt a presence surrounding me,
229Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMkY6y5SDmt
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,
229Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡODF8Pn6WQE
They were other creatures,
229Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxDl3r61e3b
There were 5 of them, at least 5 that I could see,
229Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡosvovSkeze
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,
229Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4X9OEfmVwh
The second one was a werewolf, his half shifted body had gave away his identity as did his bulkiness,
229Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVvC0NUavRn
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,
229Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcLz3JDPt9G
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,
229Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb8VCywPCVT
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.
229Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzdcrNZpjQy
What they didn't know is that who they are facing isn't as kind as king Cian,
229Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLAbgpOztuD
They all suddenly lunged at me,
229Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZovPchjWL2
these amateurs,
229Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbeM6kt0Yah
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,
229Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7n9TbxzJKw
The werewolf screamed in agony,
229Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtJfdt5suct
"Oh, so that was your mate" I answered with humor in my voice to taunt him,
229Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKzEszHXYHa
An expression of hatred rose through his eyes, he lunged at me, aiming for my heart,
229Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9LQXyuoPpe
I bet he thinks he could get my heart out,
229Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIkrrvCubCm
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,
229Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQHK2kAdMdt
"What is your business here, who dares to enter his majesty's property"
229Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuKjgt7fsu4
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,
229Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZo02IGdrr2
I let him go, I wanted him to die slower than the others, to think there is hope for him that he would survive,
229Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNruwxRbkpU
I ran towards the other three as they turned back to run away from me,
229Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyuuZheNIC9
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,
229Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHEu0YwLfNN
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,
229Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡILycJAgGwR
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,
229Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdIzj1qcqj9
"Answer my fucking question, lowlife"
229Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf3sVQHkS4z
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,
229Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDeaj2jZlBZ
She was dead,
229Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEsDkyXKYs2
I looked around her body, as I saw her hand clutching around something tightly,
229Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8oCqxe8zOG
I pried it open with so much force, cutting myself in the process,
229Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡilg4XZKDrR
She had a syringe in her palm with it completely empty, a drop of poison had seeped into my new wound,
229Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWkfCDoziSd
It was nothing I couldn't handle, but it was going to hurt regardless,
229Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnXiHiGvSFU
I threw her away as I slowly stood up, the wind hitting my sweaty skin,
229Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMZVXcDZfeX
the wind had grown warmer so it seemed like it was past sunrise,
229Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbXE46hP7Ic
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,
229Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFkjoOtc5I5
I heard a crunch behind me, and the small whiff of my mate's scent had hit me,
229Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡILSIFatizN
Cian was here and a magic cloak is not going to work on him,
229Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxbfo6KMKpf
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,
229Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKYkGVPeCmZ
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,
229Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡufPKYvzLrR
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,
229Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTCqQrtTzKL
But I was gone,
229Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡywAsYuv5zA
