"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,
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuNpi9Xsnev
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,
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJN4qXGx6vz
I opened the windows and let in a deep breath,
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBaqBJu5trF
The cold air grazed my soft cheeks as if they were daggers against them,
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ60XQQ2SkR6
I had tried to stretch while I was in front of the window, but an unsettling feeling had set in again,
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡme3clYSJvY
My body was being conscious of its surrounding, even the sunrise couldn't help to make the feeling of being watched less creepy,
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlO4SPPG0Oe
I had a very bad feeling deep in my gut,
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsywfERVrD4
and my guts are usually right,
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgzQDpEqgDY
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?
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7spJPwmGP5
It could have been simply Cian there, but that's not the feeling I would have gotten if he had secretly watched me,
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdbX6Ky7p41
No, this feeling was not a pleasant one,
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw0qIuY3TV7
This one is when your every action is watched to see a flaw in, so they could attack once there is an opening,
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM1uv5UjT3N
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,
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1kybJZwvdX
The moment my feet were about to touch the ground, I had whispered a spell to slowly put me on the ground.
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIzgwkuNa8T
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,
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ01Klari5Yf
Looking around, I slowly crept through the shadows of the forest,
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSQwcq3q03a
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,
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoI7OgQzCLC
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,
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxDCEd7CyWJ
I had nothing to lose, and I sure as hell wasn't scared of anyone,
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLbdXPBZWCY
I closed my eyes momentarily as I felt a presence surrounding me,
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq9NWi9MQVC
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,
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡERFckQiykK
They were other creatures,
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7Gf6yrzX1o
There were 5 of them, at least 5 that I could see,
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUZohO4lCse
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,
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcUUudmT3KA
The second one was a werewolf, his half shifted body had gave away his identity as did his bulkiness,
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ64rmx4W8Mk
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,
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ9uAlguyLU
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,
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMrz3YWPmfA
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.
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEVcGalUksn
What they didn't know is that who they are facing isn't as kind as king Cian,
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE6VNSRHU8I
They all suddenly lunged at me,
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdr0PqksOWj
these amateurs,
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7bpHs9zKFC
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,
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX2SuCMrSUe
The werewolf screamed in agony,
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlaBpQTyydo
"Oh, so that was your mate" I answered with humor in my voice to taunt him,
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJkTMnybIDs
An expression of hatred rose through his eyes, he lunged at me, aiming for my heart,
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo7ou6ENgf8
I bet he thinks he could get my heart out,
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDu20mZPSmg
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,
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡumbklmM2Tw
"What is your business here, who dares to enter his majesty's property"
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡicMhU8tEuz
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,
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDrqT3C1Vbi
I let him go, I wanted him to die slower than the others, to think there is hope for him that he would survive,
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡObFHIK892P
I ran towards the other three as they turned back to run away from me,
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfz4YSkEMUr
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,
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpRMzRiBVNl
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,
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8N6eQkPKFl
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,
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMiiIBoaWMV
"Answer my fucking question, lowlife"
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGZq7HoTggs
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,
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyaPcoN7se5
She was dead,
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1yGTWCc67T
I looked around her body, as I saw her hand clutching around something tightly,
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfRmIGZIdlx
I pried it open with so much force, cutting myself in the process,
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDg4dwGwIEb
She had a syringe in her palm with it completely empty, a drop of poison had seeped into my new wound,
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtCFeC6vmWS
It was nothing I couldn't handle, but it was going to hurt regardless,
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbCTUGGBE9E
I threw her away as I slowly stood up, the wind hitting my sweaty skin,
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZpOhFzXYXQ
the wind had grown warmer so it seemed like it was past sunrise,
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjS4jrDspAz
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,
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ799fDpQmhV
I heard a crunch behind me, and the small whiff of my mate's scent had hit me,
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm7d9NCRIli
Cian was here and a magic cloak is not going to work on him,
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGaVPYXMMtE
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,
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHfibq51nJn
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,
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsSauyjQ1tV
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,
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJRVWlSrBkg
But I was gone,
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMFbanTc91R
