"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,
143Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7IEys1uldL
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,
143Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWuzKLRcUjh
I opened the windows and let in a deep breath,
143Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGD1M4LEcSA
The cold air grazed my soft cheeks as if they were daggers against them,
143Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPZULKCAlBe
I had tried to stretch while I was in front of the window, but an unsettling feeling had set in again,
143Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQE7xFNrIP0
My body was being conscious of its surrounding, even the sunrise couldn't help to make the feeling of being watched less creepy,
143Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYjTOXPPaRK
I had a very bad feeling deep in my gut,
143Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR35mX2M5CI
and my guts are usually right,
143Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9Px9BMhtEU
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?
143Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU9IpKNGjmN
It could have been simply Cian there, but that's not the feeling I would have gotten if he had secretly watched me,
143Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEgNnnOFFnN
No, this feeling was not a pleasant one,
143Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfPDTquKkCy
This one is when your every action is watched to see a flaw in, so they could attack once there is an opening,
143Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZvHWWK3Jvy
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,
143Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLZsqqtGYiT
The moment my feet were about to touch the ground, I had whispered a spell to slowly put me on the ground.
143Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQxw9WxFbAV
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,
143Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUvmMfhZ304
Looking around, I slowly crept through the shadows of the forest,
143Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcBvzyZ0UDe
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,
143Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDL2NxQtCr5
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,
143Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjHizhZD6ON
I had nothing to lose, and I sure as hell wasn't scared of anyone,
143Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqHOErOMyLJ
I closed my eyes momentarily as I felt a presence surrounding me,
143Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1FKc5Uy199
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,
143Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCRdnTetvUI
They were other creatures,
143Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrJNaTORHXm
There were 5 of them, at least 5 that I could see,
143Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8swp10M58u
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,
143Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAjfzNsIPG7
The second one was a werewolf, his half shifted body had gave away his identity as did his bulkiness,
143Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpq55tctIvd
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,
143Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0RdebGK6gb
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,
143Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡroqYWVz8TD
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.
143Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡakGsQ65I5y
What they didn't know is that who they are facing isn't as kind as king Cian,
143Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡskmM0M4lAc
They all suddenly lunged at me,
143Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYYxZzed7Oa
these amateurs,
143Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtUjb8SfxRG
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,
143Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbC3He2hEYP
The werewolf screamed in agony,
143Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBadnjYIkm2
"Oh, so that was your mate" I answered with humor in my voice to taunt him,
143Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzV2RAlmbK4
An expression of hatred rose through his eyes, he lunged at me, aiming for my heart,
143Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkLhtjqYutg
I bet he thinks he could get my heart out,
143Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJrto0ndbkm
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,
143Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA9oEqwUTo4
"What is your business here, who dares to enter his majesty's property"
143Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAEEOHSnkfJ
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,
143Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlYx3gqwVAh
I let him go, I wanted him to die slower than the others, to think there is hope for him that he would survive,
143Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxePBMvspNi
I ran towards the other three as they turned back to run away from me,
143Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0DYfijFZwJ
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,
143Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgiOjfecsRE
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,
143Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ18t751m6fo
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,
143Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkHsy9QkMg7
"Answer my fucking question, lowlife"
143Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg3i9a3awQQ
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,
143Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH9PP0AbFOW
She was dead,
143Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0FXAXuMlwA
I looked around her body, as I saw her hand clutching around something tightly,
143Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡreM75dIPHM
I pried it open with so much force, cutting myself in the process,
143Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKe25KOVOD3
She had a syringe in her palm with it completely empty, a drop of poison had seeped into my new wound,
143Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmyPsCZsCxh
It was nothing I couldn't handle, but it was going to hurt regardless,
143Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFbj3XhY09n
I threw her away as I slowly stood up, the wind hitting my sweaty skin,
143Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxHjjzq9gbN
the wind had grown warmer so it seemed like it was past sunrise,
143Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHyzLFzUpar
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,
143Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFKPitJDnEk
I heard a crunch behind me, and the small whiff of my mate's scent had hit me,
143Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXmyISiXttC
Cian was here and a magic cloak is not going to work on him,
143Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEy0IiiuvHC
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,
143Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWFr4cmkdbc
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,
143Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5T45pAFHPb
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,
143Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDv3iBCjXjY
But I was gone,
143Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj6N8JLcNWl
