"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,
225Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9fcf6ljNCE
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,
225Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzEsdPhBmx6
I opened the windows and let in a deep breath,
225Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ4NcTq43vr
The cold air grazed my soft cheeks as if they were daggers against them,
225Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI8OaZ2uSG2
I had tried to stretch while I was in front of the window, but an unsettling feeling had set in again,
225Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuNuxkX3usN
My body was being conscious of its surrounding, even the sunrise couldn't help to make the feeling of being watched less creepy,
225Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlrtZEMjJXw
I had a very bad feeling deep in my gut,
225Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAkJyMA3FOD
and my guts are usually right,
225Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBruzedbLDN
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?
225Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡci02PlSgRA
It could have been simply Cian there, but that's not the feeling I would have gotten if he had secretly watched me,
225Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMFEyH4QD6r
No, this feeling was not a pleasant one,
225Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvJ2KDuy93O
This one is when your every action is watched to see a flaw in, so they could attack once there is an opening,
225Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv6FZIzZzGW
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,
225Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡycOkfsyhci
The moment my feet were about to touch the ground, I had whispered a spell to slowly put me on the ground.
225Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLhLGFhiRiv
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,
225Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDhQIzuzkWS
Looking around, I slowly crept through the shadows of the forest,
225Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLWZ6Vz5Ll8
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,
225Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0RS2deLJXM
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,
225Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO0VcrpdXSw
I had nothing to lose, and I sure as hell wasn't scared of anyone,
225Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfJxvVkMkf2
I closed my eyes momentarily as I felt a presence surrounding me,
225Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv4heqTDsEn
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,
225Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWhxqzdXYFq
They were other creatures,
225Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKRdHHRNIH0
There were 5 of them, at least 5 that I could see,
225Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0tsmsG8sWG
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,
225Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWvg69nZbza
The second one was a werewolf, his half shifted body had gave away his identity as did his bulkiness,
225Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRKOedUU7AK
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,
225Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbWCP1exCUx
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,
225Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW9gmsZUb6R
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.
225Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlEjWAXjfRO
What they didn't know is that who they are facing isn't as kind as king Cian,
225Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5ReprbS7Yy
They all suddenly lunged at me,
225Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHqIpSD2l8h
these amateurs,
225Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZBJRuWo5V9
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,
225Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv0G2Lkudyz
The werewolf screamed in agony,
225Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwpxSCdhgoX
"Oh, so that was your mate" I answered with humor in my voice to taunt him,
225Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPLON4ntag9
An expression of hatred rose through his eyes, he lunged at me, aiming for my heart,
225Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQZMDD0ZR9J
I bet he thinks he could get my heart out,
225Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9qDs1TFBs2
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,
225Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdvzCCjqet9
"What is your business here, who dares to enter his majesty's property"
225Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkekCAXOTwe
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,
225Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvLXekDVhfv
I let him go, I wanted him to die slower than the others, to think there is hope for him that he would survive,
225Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRHWcopeGHW
I ran towards the other three as they turned back to run away from me,
225Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpLKApMrhen
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,
225Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDOJDpmZRzA
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,
225Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfBbMNSoJQ7
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,
225Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1PF5vI3Ba4
"Answer my fucking question, lowlife"
225Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWVsn7s188p
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,
225Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9NW6AJjjnk
She was dead,
225Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJiS9XhiasH
I looked around her body, as I saw her hand clutching around something tightly,
225Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfMNET4mbiR
I pried it open with so much force, cutting myself in the process,
225Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqcRw4ST2qd
She had a syringe in her palm with it completely empty, a drop of poison had seeped into my new wound,
225Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfTHZofwTi4
It was nothing I couldn't handle, but it was going to hurt regardless,
225Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡriFqZZJEWp
I threw her away as I slowly stood up, the wind hitting my sweaty skin,
225Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmu8UIltCVV
the wind had grown warmer so it seemed like it was past sunrise,
225Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB7cSZY0gV7
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,
225Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd0lPusNhc5
I heard a crunch behind me, and the small whiff of my mate's scent had hit me,
225Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3vga3fqMsh
Cian was here and a magic cloak is not going to work on him,
225Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPQTIT7NZhL
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,
225Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ42Ie3Bs81O
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,
225Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPOjCyLPnSw
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,
225Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFPG5UhB21h
But I was gone,
225Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyk3F1APf5A
