"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,
217Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjZbCLwdmBd
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,
217Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnWwhNkFSOF
I opened the windows and let in a deep breath,
217Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2xFkzmoVmf
The cold air grazed my soft cheeks as if they were daggers against them,
217Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGqNTFi0WTA
I had tried to stretch while I was in front of the window, but an unsettling feeling had set in again,
217Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfcve6sdFzf
My body was being conscious of its surrounding, even the sunrise couldn't help to make the feeling of being watched less creepy,
217Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡva93lkBWZV
I had a very bad feeling deep in my gut,
217Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwaf8kqkQXj
and my guts are usually right,
217Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ332YzTmYbK
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?
217Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡccKYyba7fc
It could have been simply Cian there, but that's not the feeling I would have gotten if he had secretly watched me,
217Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFzVEMYJqfi
No, this feeling was not a pleasant one,
217Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl0IBxX8n7q
This one is when your every action is watched to see a flaw in, so they could attack once there is an opening,
217Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUW9H65oF1c
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,
217Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTY85TDYfVo
The moment my feet were about to touch the ground, I had whispered a spell to slowly put me on the ground.
217Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFVjry5I3Nn
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,
217Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ279Rdeudew
Looking around, I slowly crept through the shadows of the forest,
217Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuDWT85lzXv
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,
217Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrY0ffCtipK
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,
217Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBdfJ69Q7AW
I had nothing to lose, and I sure as hell wasn't scared of anyone,
217Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc5ddks9Igz
I closed my eyes momentarily as I felt a presence surrounding me,
217Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTxwtpgiqli
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,
217Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJWeEuHMbam
They were other creatures,
217Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo2heTJPvMU
There were 5 of them, at least 5 that I could see,
217Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKVaitTDxnT
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,
217Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlCd0wVLrpB
The second one was a werewolf, his half shifted body had gave away his identity as did his bulkiness,
217Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡReQmQLuZnG
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,
217Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbk7RfSprOW
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,
217Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkvbZ1a25xU
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.
217Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDBpUifI5ft
What they didn't know is that who they are facing isn't as kind as king Cian,
217Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi202egLGbE
They all suddenly lunged at me,
217Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4wEv1iIiir
these amateurs,
217Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwIGVj5z0CB
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,
217Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4s55fF5wxc
The werewolf screamed in agony,
217Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBbpadYMBpl
"Oh, so that was your mate" I answered with humor in my voice to taunt him,
217Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoqOTydAsXd
An expression of hatred rose through his eyes, he lunged at me, aiming for my heart,
217Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyocTLvSPwv
I bet he thinks he could get my heart out,
217Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfShIaaruAv
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,
217Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4prm1Fgsfu
"What is your business here, who dares to enter his majesty's property"
217Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3IyfftCGHb
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,
217Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqPe3dRkPMi
I let him go, I wanted him to die slower than the others, to think there is hope for him that he would survive,
217Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFgfTesYlmx
I ran towards the other three as they turned back to run away from me,
217Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIGulrLAqZR
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,
217Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqNbm65l4TD
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,
217Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeTthVX3SrB
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,
217Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJrbe8QgAcB
"Answer my fucking question, lowlife"
217Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4TDaDWzO7w
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,
217Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG9SXu80Qxu
She was dead,
217Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWhyJRZzlSc
I looked around her body, as I saw her hand clutching around something tightly,
217Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIj7q6KirwJ
I pried it open with so much force, cutting myself in the process,
217Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2n0CKhbOEH
She had a syringe in her palm with it completely empty, a drop of poison had seeped into my new wound,
217Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEMc6QBFMtB
It was nothing I couldn't handle, but it was going to hurt regardless,
217Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2m7EMASLYB
I threw her away as I slowly stood up, the wind hitting my sweaty skin,
217Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqbpw8CHRwb
the wind had grown warmer so it seemed like it was past sunrise,
217Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡunHBQMS2HN
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,
217Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq2x6ts26yV
I heard a crunch behind me, and the small whiff of my mate's scent had hit me,
217Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNE0QcG8TTW
Cian was here and a magic cloak is not going to work on him,
217Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmCcF0eZuLb
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,
217Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZdBFbcUyoR
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,
217Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdkVHJEWZ7S
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,
217Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLKUc9hyivr
But I was gone,
217Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAQ9j9cdiZC
