"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,
145Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDAqnktyFBC
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,
145Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAcvHpdc6rT
I opened the windows and let in a deep breath,
145Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVVKxk4VcEe
The cold air grazed my soft cheeks as if they were daggers against them,
145Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNcpf8K6rpB
I had tried to stretch while I was in front of the window, but an unsettling feeling had set in again,
145Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGEAWVsnq4w
My body was being conscious of its surrounding, even the sunrise couldn't help to make the feeling of being watched less creepy,
145Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzLJ6TQXTak
I had a very bad feeling deep in my gut,
145Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDqZ4e3CHiP
and my guts are usually right,
145Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBsbOSsY1rE
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?
145Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiR8RsgzpVG
It could have been simply Cian there, but that's not the feeling I would have gotten if he had secretly watched me,
145Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGq7HH5cok6
No, this feeling was not a pleasant one,
145Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDRULLQO2pW
This one is when your every action is watched to see a flaw in, so they could attack once there is an opening,
145Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMEjRoSoJCG
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,
145Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVVoY0Y9sWc
The moment my feet were about to touch the ground, I had whispered a spell to slowly put me on the ground.
145Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ71LLu39rVO
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,
145Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJyqMNfFlSj
Looking around, I slowly crept through the shadows of the forest,
145Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ25O50lC0Y1
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,
145Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSGwzWD2lpS
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,
145Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNapp5UKfTP
I had nothing to lose, and I sure as hell wasn't scared of anyone,
145Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOg3jRcPfOk
I closed my eyes momentarily as I felt a presence surrounding me,
145Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbwWsSieac6
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,
145Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSJLSQVnqqP
They were other creatures,
145Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsmsHdYzeYp
There were 5 of them, at least 5 that I could see,
145Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTXO1nebvzF
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,
145Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5Zh4J9OngM
The second one was a werewolf, his half shifted body had gave away his identity as did his bulkiness,
145Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2DKAA8hQAV
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,
145Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE5FGR3Omw4
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,
145Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6FFkHH1fea
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.
145Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡymPRfODeiY
What they didn't know is that who they are facing isn't as kind as king Cian,
145Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK6acUxLB5h
They all suddenly lunged at me,
145Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZEtGWKuYoc
these amateurs,
145Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlFIE2W2jLC
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,
145Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwkLF3m0QnZ
The werewolf screamed in agony,
145Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWO6wgtRzTE
"Oh, so that was your mate" I answered with humor in my voice to taunt him,
145Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV01q4h5ZPe
An expression of hatred rose through his eyes, he lunged at me, aiming for my heart,
145Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnBzuB2e2L4
I bet he thinks he could get my heart out,
145Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIi3L0LwfDs
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,
145Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWUdopXrF9a
"What is your business here, who dares to enter his majesty's property"
145Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPjHL63QIIG
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,
145Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCTvT30gUWl
I let him go, I wanted him to die slower than the others, to think there is hope for him that he would survive,
145Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3wLIt9YK1m
I ran towards the other three as they turned back to run away from me,
145Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBCj0eDjUgW
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,
145Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz0P89RBDh0
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,
145Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeQTa0a0PBk
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,
145Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo6CYFPJGr1
"Answer my fucking question, lowlife"
145Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEmT6ZOnU7U
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,
145Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡicAgOzh6nL
She was dead,
145Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEcZ98dzlyl
I looked around her body, as I saw her hand clutching around something tightly,
145Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeWl9wmEi7V
I pried it open with so much force, cutting myself in the process,
145Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIXKjRJZRk3
She had a syringe in her palm with it completely empty, a drop of poison had seeped into my new wound,
145Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvNc6SWZLYm
It was nothing I couldn't handle, but it was going to hurt regardless,
145Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtdB06U38rQ
I threw her away as I slowly stood up, the wind hitting my sweaty skin,
145Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLgz2UYiz00
the wind had grown warmer so it seemed like it was past sunrise,
145Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1SLy6vktVP
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,
145Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd7ddABTBEH
I heard a crunch behind me, and the small whiff of my mate's scent had hit me,
145Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡthq5SyFM43
Cian was here and a magic cloak is not going to work on him,
145Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡde7XRXcWBA
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,
145Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVXhhpLiOHj
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,
145Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4ReUSlOfwO
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,
145Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuUOnGlomB4
But I was gone,
145Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZFTtvMcc26
